After attending the launch party for the Swimsuit edition of Sports Illustrated magazine, Olivia Dunne shared details about her regimen. In a conversation with the Women's Health magazine, the 22-year-old gymnast revealed the details of her routine, which helped her stay confident.

"Hi. I'm Livvy Dunne, and this is how I train. I get started with strength training because it helps so much, not only in my gymnastics career but in my everyday life as well. It empowers me and makes me feel strong and confident," Dunne remarked.

Olivia Dunne contributed to the maiden NCAA Gymnastics Championships title for the LSU Tigers last year. Though a fracture in the patella ruled her out of the competition midway through the SEC Championships this year, the gymnast continued to cheer for her team.

The LSU Tigers qualified for the National semifinals of the NCAA Championships 2025. However, they were unable to defend the title, with the Oklahoma Sooners' women's gymnastics team emerging as the overall winners this year.
