Olympic gymnast McKayla Maroney is in thigh-highs and bursting out her red minidress to look back at it. The 25-year-old vault queen, fresh from stunning her 1.3 million Instagram followers in her Valentine's Day mini, kept the thirst trap vibes alive and well after February 14, posting yet another shot showing her killer body and offering a little reflection. McKayla may have been viral with her "unimpressed" face at the London 2012 Olympics, but nobody here was unimpressed. See why below.

Scroll for the photo. It comes as McKayla makes headlines for both her TikTok and Instagram activity – the latter, this year seeing the star deliver a home workout with frozen peas and bread.
Freezing her fans with her good looks and gorgeous facial features, Maroney updated on Monday and still in her sexy, floral-print V-Day dress, this time hiding the black thigh-high boots donned, but still posing outdoors and with a looking-back-at-it pout as she went a little backless in her dress.

Looking dead at the lens, the Gold Medal winner sent out a mean cat-wing, also taking to her caption with an affirmation. "Only look back to see how far you've come," the gymnast wrote, quickly getting called an "angel" by her adoring fans. Bear in mind, though, this girl's followers aren't always easy-going, with 2021 seeing fans complaining after two Daisy Dukes snaps offered content that was too similar.
"But also sneak a peek to make sure you're not stepping out of bounds on floor!" one fan replied.

Maroney is fresh from looking back at it with a lot of perspective. A shot that followed the gymnast showing off her breakfast pumpkin waffles this month came captioned: "Just a reminder that anything is possible."
"Sometimes as we get older we can accidentally adopt a more “practical” mindset... I know I did.
Maybe we’ve been knocked down a few times, gotten our heartbroken, made some mistakes we regret, or just plain old wasted our time," the California native added. See her buns of steel below!
MacKayla's days on the beam might be over, but the training isn't. The gymnast has been back in the gym amid the global pandemic, admitting that she missed the cable work, and she even donned a face mask to stay COVID-safe. McKayla has, in the past, admitted to unhealthy diet choices while she was still in professional gymnastics, but the super-healthy star is now vegan all the way and over her Diet Coke addiction.
