Nastia Liukin has sparked weight worries as she delivers a new Instagram share.
The Olympic gymnast, 34, has been celebrating the 2024 Paris Olympics with a new capsule collection as she continues to collaborate with footwear brand Apl, but talk wasn’t so much about her stylish sneakers as she updated her account last night.
Sharing mash-up footage of herself flipping across a tennis court net and delivering a jaw-dropping handstand, Nastia reminded fans of her gymnast skill set, but she was met with concerned remarks regarding her ultra-slim frame. With 2020 bringing an anorexia storm as Nastia clapped back to a weight-related remark, though, this is nothing new.

Liukin said the more she focused her attention on gymnastics and eventually the Olympics, it became less about winning medals but rather the meaning behind being an American Olympian.
“I think being able to achieve that goal, it was less about, of course, winning a gold medal – and five medals is incredible and it’s something that I’m proud of – but it was less about that end result, and it was more about that feeling of being at an Olympic Games, and you’re representing something and part of something so much greater than yourself,” she told Fox News Digital.
