If there’s anyone who knows about wearing several Olympic medals for a magazine photoshoot, it’s USA swimming legend Michael Phelps.

Phelps, who owns 28 Olympic medals (including 23 gold), has appeared on several covers throughout his decorated career, and he did a photoshoot for the upcoming Sports Illustrated magazine issue with a few other American athletes, including fellow swimmer Katie Ledecky.

Ledecky, who claimed four golds and one silver in Rio, wasn’t exactly sure how to arrange her medals so all of them would be visible, but Phelps was kind enough to give her some words of wisdom.

Here’s what the cover looks like.

Ledecky should learn quick, because she’ll probably be asked for a lot of interview/photo requests once the Rio Games conclude.
