GOATs Collide: Phelps Salutes Biles

Simone Biles just tied Serena Williams with her fourth Laureus Sportswoman of the Year award, and none other than the GOAT of the pool, Michael Phelps, jumped in with a quick Insta shoutout: "Congrats @simonebiles!! Well deserved." Pretty epic seeing one legend recognize another, especially as Biles keeps pushing gymnastics into the global spotlight. Anyone else think this friendly rivalry for most Laureus wins is heating up? #SimoneBiles #MichaelPhelps #GOATs #LaureusAwards #Gymnastics #Olympics #Sports

is phelps really overrated? 🤔

🎂 Michael Phelps just turned 40 — and it’s still hard to wrap our heads around what this man actually did to the sport 5 Olympics. 16 years. 39 World Records. 46 Golds (Worlds + Olympics). But here’s the wild part: With that resume, people are still out here debating if he’s “overrated”… or if someone like Dressel, Popovici, or even Léon Marchand is the next GOAT. Seriously? Let’s be real: 200 Free (1:42.96 WR) – 2008 Olympic “My best race ever,” he said. His winning margin of 1.89 seconds remains the largest ever recorded in Olympic history for the 200 freestyle. 100 Fly (49.82 WR) — 2009 World Championships! After Cavic talked trash and broke the WR in semis… Phelps answered. That’s legacy stuff. And yeah, we know about the photo. And the DUIs. He paid his price. Still showed up. Still won everything. Let’s hear it: 💬 What’s your favorite Phelps race? 💬 What’s his most underrated performance? 💬 And if he’s not your swimming GOAT… who is? (And be ready to defend it 😤) #MichaelPhelps #SwimmingGOAT #Legendary #Swimming

Michael Phelps's favorite short swim set revealed 🏊‍♂️✨

You'd think the greatest Olympian ever, Michael Phelps, would only love monstrous workouts, right? Think again! His favorite set of all time was surprisingly short, sweet, and all about quality. Guided by legendary coach Bob Bowman, Phelps's success stemmed from an unmatched work ethic, physical gifts, and an iron mindset. Even with typical workouts hitting 7,000-8,000m, this quick set was his go-to. Here it is – Phelps's favorite set, done in short course yards with enough relaxed intervals for even some joking and banter: ✨ 80x 25 -- @ :35 ✨ This involves 4 repetitions of the following sequence: 4 fly drill + 1 fly swim fast 4 back drill + 1 back swim fast 4 breast drill + 1 breast swim fast 4 free drill + 1 free swim fast It's a simple, effective individual medley set, perfect for touching on all four strokes and refining technique. Proof that even for Phelps, quality and focus trump endless meters 😜 #MichaelPhelps #SwimWorkout #Swimming #OlympicTraining #WorkoutGoals #SwimLife
