Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman just stunned Instagram fast asleep in yoga pants. The 26-year-old former athlete, known for her gentle lifestyle approach, made her Tuesday update a very relaxed one indeed, posting for her 2.1 million followers, plonked on a couch, and looking about as cozy as it gets. Aly, who channels an aodrable edge via her seedling gardening habits, gentle Pilates, and those kitchen Silk Milk sessions, was showing fans that sometimes, chill is best. Check out the sleepy snooze below.

Scroll for the photo. It comes as Aly makes headlines for eyeing up a good-hearted summer at Woodward Camp with her new role as the camp's Gymnastics Program Designer. The 2012 "Fierce Five" and 2016 "Final Five" captain, taking a little self-care moment, updated asleep and while resting her head in her hands.

Aly, who doesn't live solo and always has blue-eyed dog Mylo by her side, turned it into a twinning affair, with her adorable pooch also seen catching forty winks on the floor.

Aly, under a gray and ribbed blanket, flashed hints of her Gold Medal body, wearing all-black via a tight top and matching yoga pants – nothing fussy for the Aerie partner who counts the brand's $14 baseball caps as an item she can't live "without."

A caption from Aly took the blue from her dog's eyes and threw it into heart emoji. "Superheroes need rest too" quickly came in, with fans also writing: "Cutests lil shadow." "Priceless pic!" a third added.

For Aly, self-care is more than just a pandemic-friendly trend. The gymnast, who last year revealed she could "barely walk" up stairs without pain following the 2016 Olympics, has been working hard to get back on her feet, all this amid battling both anxiety and OCD. The Pilates lover has stated:

“I recently read somewhere that how you start your day is typically how you feel for the rest of the day, and I really agree with that.”

Aly might not be flipping the beam anymore, but the popular Instagram face is still much in demand, especially with brands. Aly, who this year fronts retail giant Amazon and Club Pilates alongside plant-based and high-protein Silk Milk, is unusual with her promos. They tend to come with a gentle edge, with the Amazon ones even seeing Raisman help fight homelessness. Aly has also been making headlines as she continues to question USA Gymnastics' morals amid the Larry Nassar sex abuse scandal.
