Some new @codysimpson pics put up earlier. Something's telling me to post and comment -- especially since he didn't give them any description. 24 days until the #AustralianOlympicTrials
Really like the second shot with the air bubble floating to the surface.
Emma has some good advice for him... "Be the butterfly"
He may have heard that one before.

Colour photo of Cody Simpson from the waist up taken underwater as he's down near the tiled pool floor, looking up towards the surface. He just blew an air bubble from his mouth, which is captured floating to the surface, with the main portion of it above his abdomen. There are a few smaller bubbles also visible around his chin. Cody is wearing his black Griffith University Speedo cap and polarised goggles.
Colour photo of Cody Simpson (from a jaunty angle) at the pool surface, with his head nearly fully out of the water. He's cracking a smile, with mostly his upper teeth showing. Cody is wearing his black Griffith University Speedo cap and polarised goggles. Behind Codes is a somewhat faded red lane separator and one of his training mates who is also wearing similar headgear, but has a neutral facial expression.

A behind-the-scenes short compilation video of @codysimpson as he engages in a few different gym training weight exercises with less than one month to go before the start of the #AustralianOlympicTrials .
Nice touch with having "Part The Seas" as the soundtrack -- one of my favs. Tempo is sync'd nicely with many of the movements, so a great choice.

With about one month to go before the #AustralianOlympicTrials, @codysimpson is nearly in the homestretch to make the trek to Brisbane. I wouldn't be surprised if we hear less from him over the coming weeks as he perhaps gets "sequestered", to some degree. But, based on how active he was prior to Commonwealth, there's no guarantee about that happening.

A few of @codysimpson 's latest pics, with my annotations.
He's no doubt laser-focused on the #swim with just over a month to go before the #AustralianOlympicTrials

Yeah, don't worry about trying to get pics and vids of yourself during training, @CodySimpson -- it's less about doing it for the cameras or for the glamour of it. As long as you can record some stories or talk about them after this extreme phase of your life has concluded, that will be more than enough. We do appreciate the glimpses you have shown us as they let us know you're doing everything to push as hard as you can. #AustralianOlympicTrials #Swimming #Dolphins

Black and white video of Cody Simpson (from one week ago), whom is on a stationery exercise wind bike, cycling at a rapid pace, in a brightly-lit gym as he describes in a voiceover (with the text appearing on the screen) of just how much he'll see this phase of his life through the lens of "nostalgia" (this being whilst he's still in it). The camera operator (possibly Emma McKeon) walks up to Cody amongst the weights and other equipment as he's "going to town" on the bike. Cody is wearing a pair of dark gym shorts along with white runners and socks. Codes' video description: Last Saturday morning, after a nasty 2 hours in the pool. Emptying the tank on a dry-land circuit before Sunday rest. There’s so much beauty in all of this. I don’t share much of what we do in the pool as there’s no cameras around but I’ll try and share some more.

Codes is releasing this as a gift to his dedicated fan base, who have stuck with him for a number of years, even without much in the way of new music, as he reaches the apex of his #swimming dream in 2024. #AustralianOlympicTrials #Paris2024
