Fitness enthusiasts are used to seeing gruelling workouts, but a recent display of abdominal strength redefined what it means to train in style.

The clip was shared by TikTok user @mankulegcaleka93 in February 2026, where she performed seamless ab wheel rollouts while wearing stilettos.

In the video, the Pietermaritzburg woman was seen gliding forward and pulling back with total control, showcasing a level of physical prowess that served as the main attraction. The fact that TikTok user @mankulegcaleka93 maintained such perfect form in high heels made her appear like an elite athlete at work.

The reality of achieving visible abs

Visible muscle definition requires a strategic combination of low body fat, typically between 15% and 19% for women, and consistent core strengthening. Data from Women’s Health highlights that because abs are often hidden beneath a layer of fat, success relies heavily on the ‘kitchen, idea,’ specifically a high-protein, high-fibre diet and a slight calorie deficit. While genetics often determine where the body stores weight, the most effective approach involves pairing targeted core work with full-body strength training and cardio to shift overall body composition.

SA is stunned by the flexible woman

The video garnered 1.5M views, 95K likes, and 6.1K comments from viewers who reacted with a mix of humour and disbelief. Many viewers showered her with praise, while others turned to comedy to hide their own fitness struggles. A popular joke among commenters was that their ab wheels do not have reverse functions, explaining why they can never pull themselves back up after rolling out. Others were sceptical and refused to believe a human could move so smoothly in that attire.
