Greg Louganis, naked at 56

Olympic diving legend Greg Louganis is proving that he's still got a body worthy of showing off. The 56-year-old -- who has won four gold medals and one silver medal over three different Olympics -- got naked for the annual Body Issue of ESPN magazine.

"When I look around at my contemporaries, I’d say I’m probably in better shape than most of them," Louganis admitted. "It’s all about making healthy choices."

Louganis was diagnosed with HIV in 1988. At the time, he said he could give in to depression and continue to train as an Olympic athlete.

"HIV taught me that I’m a lot stronger than I ever believed I was," he said. "Also, not to take anything for granted. I didn’t think I would see 30, and here I am at 56.

"I look at working out and doing something physically active every day as being as important as taking my meds."

The Body Issue will be released on July 8.
