It’s not 13 gold. It’s 23 gold medals.

[@LucasSilva-g3c]

He didn't win only 13 dummies, the man won 23 gold medals, 28 in total

[@j4mbi_]

13 wtf? He has 23 gold medals.

[@boydpease4103]

Phelps melts in your mouth❤ I took us divers scuba course at 15 years old. One requirement was to work up to swimming underwater one length of 50 meter pool holding breath. Then though I spent extra time and worked up to 2 lengths then 3 then 4 then 5 and finally 6 lengths but stopped because gave me headache to go that long. Used slow frog leg and sweep arm strike. That was decades ago now and wouldn't try it now and shouldn't be done without a buddy to watch.

Sleep is the most important thing for your health. 8 hours in complete darkness and don't eat or drink anything for 3 hours beforehand.

[@mathew3267]

Its important to drink a red bull right before jumping into the water.

[@Gogalen789]

Sleep and water are both very important. You can consume many foods and beverages that contain water so it does not have to be plain water.

[@marcosmelendez09]

23 gold

[@bigdream6020]

Sleep is important....so let's deprive them of sleep using frequent testing 😮😮😮

[@JKT143]

Can NBC Find better Host???

[@nikiip970]

Enough sleep is important, so let’s deprive Chinese team enough sleep by keep testing 😂

[@MorselOfBread]

I think Phelps should transition to a woman and go back to the Olympics, kick some ass, and win another 23 gold.

[@bigdream6020]

What were those purpose faces at finish line??

[@nikiip970]

Enough sleep is important. So let’s deprive Chinese team enough sleep 😂

[@chiaweinam]

Of course they know the importance of sleep. Why else would they get WADA to test their Chinese competitors so often and at odd timings....

[@privatesale211]

because Chinese are known for cheating maybe?

[@ranx9078]

It’s only the spirit when they win.. if not, all sour losers.

[@iamhardwell2844]

American athletes don't have to test by foreign agency meanwhile all kind of ORG do every kind of test to Chinese athletes LOL

[@privatesale211]

@@iamhardwell2844 are you dumb or do you lie on purpose ? all athletes have the exact same controls

[@hello_its_me.]

And swim like a dolphin, that helps too.

[@ranx9078]

It has come to the attention that American teams do make sour losers sometimes.

Without doping, he is just a purple potato floated in the water.

[@jc2333]

23 are gold medals not 13

[@starfish2046]

Is he still taking his medication after his last 🏅? LOL 😂😂😂

Same here, all thanks to Miss Meredith Lindshaw, she has always been there to guide me through with detailed analysis and recommendations that I wouldn't have access to otherwise.

[@RobertHooke-s8m]

YES!!! That's exactly her name (Meredith Lindshaw ) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her from Zagreb Croatia 🇭🇷 .

[@Paul-t6u]

Meredith's crypto knowledge is like a secret recipe for success

[@Paul-t6u]

her transformative power of trading is remarkable. Despite being a medical doctor by profession, l've found that copy trading generates higher income for me without the need for direct involvement in trading>

[@Anardreams-c4b]

Though I started with as low as $15,000 actually because it was my first time and it was successful, She's is a great personality in the states
