It's official Michael Phelps now has more gold than Fort Knox and all of us here at the bodybuilding techniques blog would like to congratulate him for a brilliant performance in Beijing (8 gold medals).

Unless you've been under a rock fo the past week you know Michael Phelps is an American swimmer of extraordinary ability.  Well he has outdone himself and actually everyone for that matter. By winning 8 gold medals at a single Olympiad event he sets a new standard for those that follow. Michael has joined an elite club of Olympians who've won nine career gold medals and raised the ante.

With 14 career Olympic gold medals Michael Phelps is the greatest human swimmer on the planet and the greatest olympian in history.
