The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, which will have Kate Upton on the cover, features a number of athletes this year along with the professional swimsuit models, including tennis stars Serena Williams and Genie Bouchard as well as United States gymnasts and Olympic gold medalists Simone Biles and Aly Raisman.
The gymnasts who became household names by cleaning up on the medal stand during the Rio Olympics now grace the pages of the Swimsuit Edition, showing off how exceptionally in shape they are. Biles and Raisman’s physiques will probably make you feel a bit bad about yourself, but remember that they are professional gymnasts and you are not so you aren’t expected to be in as good of shape.

The two also took a trip to the zoo ahead of SI Swimsuit media day, where they fed giraffes from their mouths, because that’s a thing to do.

Biles and Raisman seem to genuinely enjoy their newfound fame that has come from being Olympic gold medalists and American sports stars, and they’re happily taking advantage of opportunities that get presented to them. With how short-lived the career of a gymnast is, that’s exactly what they should be doing and it’s nice to see them having genuine fun while living the dream.
