And in one recent clip Olivia baffled viewers when she could be seen lifting dumbbells simultaneously with her torso lifted off the floor with her feet planted against a door.
Captioning the clip, Olivia wrote: “Apparently gravity doesn’t apply to women when they lift weights.”
The video has received over 21 million views, with viewers accusing Olivia of ‘witchcraft’.
One joked: “I’m telling the church!”
“Please tell me how you do it so I can sleep at night,” wrote another, while a third added, “This hurts my brain.”
Olivia has been accused of using a green screen, which she disprove by wearing green in another video, of the door actually being on the floor, but the direction her hair fell in proved otherwise.
The seemingly superfit woman even moved the trick outside, further baffling her fans.
She has even been seen pouring water from the position to prove she is facing the floor, but viewers are determined to crack her secret.
So much so that a Reddit thread has been dedicated to working out Olivia’s secret with a common theory coming up.
One suggested: “She has some sort of harness attached to the door which we can’t see because she’s in the way.”
“Probably a harness that we can’t see,” agreed another, while a third said, “Attached by a belt to somewhere in the middle of the door I’m thinking.”
While Olivia has not confirmed or denied the theory, she did thank viewers for ‘playing along’ suggesting it is indeed an illusion.
