Olivia Dunne Holds a Handstand and Midair Splits in Latest TikTok
Olivia Dunne might not be competing right now due to an injury, but she’s still keeping up with her flexibility—and with her TikTok audience. The LSU gymnast shared a fun video Monday of herself holding a handstand for 10 seconds and then transitioning to a midair split, all to the sound of the platform’s “Splash Challenge.” She wore a black leotard and tightened her ponytail before hopping upside down on her palms.
“torn labrums are screaming #foryou #gymnastics #lsu,” she captioned the post that garnered 4.7 million views in 16 hours.
The labrum is a soft tissue rim surrounding the joints in the shoulder.
“No way you doing that on two torn labrum’s,” someone quipped in the comments, to which Dunne replied with a clarification: “and a torn bicep :(.”
Dunne has not competed yet this season. LSU is currently ranked No. 8 in the nation after narrowly losing to Arkansas last Friday by a score of 197.475-197.250. The team will face Georgia on Friday.
On Jan. 20, the 20-year-old shared a hilarious TikTok of herself rolling around the team’s locker room on a knee scooter and in a brace.
“burnin rubber” she captioned the post set to the sound of “Ridin’” by Chamillionaire.
“They see me rollin’ / They hatin’,” the rapper sang while Dunne nodded her head. “Patrollin’ and tryna catch me ridin’ dirty.”
She wore a sparkly LSU-emblazoned leotard and big black sunglasses in the slow-motion video.
