InstaHunk Round-Up: Olympic Bobsled Edition

(via Instagram)

With the 2018 Winter Olympic Games now underway, what better time for an Olympic edition of InstaHunk Round-Up?

And why not start with the woofy U.S. Bobsled team?

Check out this collection of Instagram posts of the team and, just to zoom in a bit, two of the team members Lou Moreira and Sam Michener.

Bobsled push athlete Lou Moreira is not only a member of Team USA but a former Mr. Texas and saved a puppy during his time serving in the military in Afghanistan. Oh, he also has trouble finding pants that fit.

I was sitting on the couch tonight with no training scheduled for today and a lot on my mind. What did I resort to, the weight room. The best therapy known to mankind, IMO. I left the house with no plan, just showed up to @destinationdallastexas and started my dynamic warmup...mind you it’s a bodybuilders, powerlifting gym, so that gets people looking 😳but it’s my home gym and I feel completely comfortable there running around like a damn 🐘🐰. After that I just decided to get a sick pump 🗣like an absolute savage @1manthrillride baybee Time to get some food, get some rest and tackle tomorrow. #redwhiteandlou #staythecourse . . . #setgoals #smashthem #eatfaces #nutrexba #betterbodies #speed #power #doyouevenpush #getsome #combat #veteran #vet #military #militarymuscle #army #paratrooper #eightydueceontheloose #airborne #standuphookup #bobsleigh #teamusa #olympicsport #instagood #instagramers #instapic #ruleyourself

Tongan Olympian Gets Oiled Up By Hoda & Jenna Bush


Pita Taufatofua, the now famous Olympic athlete from Tonga who broke the internet when he marched into the opening ceremonies for the 2016 Summer Olympics wearing not much more than body oil and a gorgeous smile, recently met up with Today Show hosts Hoda and Jenna Bush.

The Tongan was too much to resist as Hoda broke out the body oil and went to work.

Seriously, that smile.

Pita also gave a short lesson on Taekwondo to the Today Show team.

Tweet Of The Day: Gus Kenworthy


Olympic silver medalist freeskier Gus Kenworthy received what looks to be almost universal support when he recently came out.

But, you know, there's always going to the occasional troll. Check the dumb-ass question posed to Kenworthy on Twitter, and then his oh-so-perfect" answer.

Just to recap - Olympic medalist, handsome, smart, amazing abs and not afraid to go toe-to-toe with an internet troll.

Man, Kenworthy rocks.
