- In the water, Michael Phelps is a force to be reckoned with. But his dominance in the pool isn't just a physical attribute. Phelps's exacting mental standards and preparation propel him beyond other swimmers. Learn more: wapo.st/LS2Z8o
Three lessons learned are that 1. I need to be super good at setting goals 2. visualize how I can reach the goal 3. put into practice to meet the daily goals
Did use those lessons in your life in 6 years since you watched this video?
@@irbisae4964 Thanks for the kind follow-up question. Unfortunately, I didn't. I am freshly reminded, though, thanks to you.
I'm not an American, but I'm so proud of Michael Phelps! Look at his achievements! It takes years of hard work and determination to get to where he is today. Simply love watching him swim - the perfect flying fish!
This man is the image of what every swimmer should build up to. Physically and mentally. Amazing.
1:36 And a good thing, too. 6 weeks later his goggles filled with water during his 200 fly and he swam it blind. Still won gold and broke the world record.
That was 2008 not 2012
ooo true
We Have so enjoyed watching Michael Phelps in all the Olympics he has been in, his victories, his caring for others, his handling of being beat,or other difficulties... even his struggles...He ia a Great athelete...has worked hard to do what he has done...and won't be forgotten and will be greatly missed there is nothing like seeing his long and trained arms, and the intensity of his face when he was headed to Gold ..it was Awesome and exciting to watch..Yayyyy Michael !!!
I kinda call Michael Phelps the Michael Jordan of swimming. A swimmer that can't do wrong and does just about everything the best.
miker6570 in my opinion micheal phelps is better at swimming than micheal Jordan is at basketball
It's the other way around. Michael Jordan is the Michael Phelps of basketball.
miker6570 yass..people name michael are all good or what..king of swim is Michael Phelps, King of Pop Michael Jackson, King of Basketball is Michael Jordan..gonna give my son's name Michael..oh God
Anyone, or the majorities who has the name ''Michael'' are always talented, legendary on wat they do. You have Michael Phelps: greatest swimmer. Michael Jordan: greatest basketball player. Michael Jackson: king of pop and more....
love the way he swims he makes it look easy
Stop the negativity and appreciate his ability!!!! Congratulations to the most decorated athlete of all time! Love MP!
Michael Johnson 90's king of the track and field sprint...come on man how could you forget that
8 olympic gold medalist, beat Ian thorpe AKA: Thorpedo, beat Mark Spits World record of 7 gold medals and being the best swimmer on the planet
love the way he swims, love the way he win, love the way he does \m/ PHELPS
Michael Phelps is absolutely THE BEST male swimmer ever put on this Earth. He has something that no one else can attain. Call me Michael...
Phelps is willing to do the workouts and not feel intimidated doing Bowman's workouts because he is mentally ready at all times.
If Phelps wants something badly enough he will set out to do it.
Let's just be proud of him, okay? :) 20 medals in total!
phelps is the greatest swimmer of all time no one will ever beat him a good day ever.
Lol.
Him "what if my suit ripped?"
Me- "then that would be an Olympics to REMEMBER!"
omg 😳
Johnson king of the sprint in track field in the 90s....Jackson king of pop
مايكل فيلبس اسطورة لا تتكرر
he's definitely not a doper. why are u guys still hating? he's one of the best athletes in the whole history. I'm thankful that i was able to watch him swim. people you are SICK! even if God was a human living here you would complain about him and hate. grow up!
So basically you gotta be CEO of your own swimming.
Micheal Phelps = greatest American athlete of all time
My name is Michael and I'm a established musician in my area. Expect to hear big things within the next few years :D
Michael Phelps, Poseidon much?
that's right ... Michael is not discouraged to anything
Michael has retired ftom the pool now, but his legacy, recored, medals, and classy sportsmanship speak for themselves in his absence.
Allison Brannon false
Michael Johnson: held the 200m world record for 12 years, still world record holder for 400m in track and field
Michael Phelps is doing the determination theory, where if you believe you are OP hard enough, you ACTUALLY become op
Losing is part of the game. Not everyone who lost choked. Choking is a factor but not to everyone and not always.
Cause they are so many Jacksons that are so successful to mention.
his last 200m signature fly and lost to Chad le clos was very upsetting for me because he was leading and very ahead than le clos! the only thing that matters that time was the touching of the wall!!! he GLIDED instead to making a little stroke! its wrong timing, i'm so upset honestly that he miscalculated that finish part but he gained 4 GOLD after that event and i'm so happy for him!!! the most decorated Olympians ever!
wow !, be4 i clicked on this video i was think of the same idea and then i saw someone that already posted it , this is just amazing !!
yeah i watched it and i hold my breath because he was totally ahead to Chad le clos!!! he just made a mistake of gliding instead of stroking!!! he was totally ahead of chad but he miscalculated the finish part, the touching the wall! he was not behind he was ahead but the touching of the wall was complicated part to him on that particular race.. i was so shocked and devastated for the bad timing and gliding thing!
i mean, he's a professional olympic swimmer
the best olympian EVER!!!!!!!
I hate it whenever we have an epic athlete who has a gift, people always jump to conclusions like OHHH since he's so good he doesn't have a gift, he doesn't train his but off to be this good, he's a doper. Just be appreciative for our good athletes people come ON!!! And for the record what are tests for dummies!!! GO MICHAEL PHELPS!!!
love 2 see him in butter fly, so nice & powerful.All the best for M. Phepls, keep go on and get your dream , Michael - Yes, You Can Do It.
He is really great!
if you watched the race you would have seen that the reason he lost was his finish
he glided into his finish, after 16 years of practicing finishes to the point where he was probably the best finisher in the world
he blew the finish because he was afraid that he was dying in the race and could lose and that pressure psyched him out and he glided the finish
thats called choking
Phelps is still winning golds in the 4x100 medley, and in the 100m and 200m fly. he will also probably take home gold in the 4x200 free relay. So i think Phelps will be just fine
O.k., all of you ladies and gentlemen supporting Michael Phelps by saying that he was under trained are acting immature. Of course it was his fault that he lost, he was not training for months and dedicating himself as much as other Olympic swimmers did, not just swimmers but other events as well. Anyone who has ever competed in any sport should know that not being disciplined and lacking training will cause you to falter. That is what we saw in Phelps. At least he can redeem himself.
Michael Johnson Champion runner
bob bowman pretty awesome coach
Come back Mike, dont upset us
he's also one of the greats of Soccer
Live Above the Influence!
and Michael is the name of a Saint
whats funny is hes the best swimmer in the world. And Where He Was Born ( Where I Live ) Are Schools Dont Have Pools In Them Not One School. I Always Wanted To Swim.
thank you very much
im inspired by him
Mr. Michael
mom. hun shouldnt you be watching the olympics
me: no
mom:why?
me: cuz when michael stopped swimming i stopped living
living legend...
it derives from the greek word "micha" meaning "the greatest", and "el" meaning "all".
why is this guy such a god at everything in life??
phelps has 16 olympic medals 14 of which are gold
"warm DOWN the same way..." brilliant!
Michael Angelo !!
Go Phelps 🇺🇸 you can do it
UR THE MAN THE GREATEST OLYMPIAN GODSPEED
Dancing with the stars
Swimming with the Dolphins Micheal Phelps edition
Michael Johnson!
I want to program my mind like this man.
The only thing i can say is he had already won everything in beijing and he lacked very few things to be the best olympian ever he already had the most golds so he just wanted to set a bar this year and prove he was the best which he did now the only thing i disagree is i think he could have had more heart like he did in beijing but other than that he proved to be the best and for right now always will be
michael johnson, the 200-400 sprinter and world record holder
I hope Phelps will win the gold. It was shameful and disappointing that his team won the silver medal while France won the gold. Do you agree?
confidence stems from preparation
@HollyHumor love your comment ^_^
I would, at least he got Gold at the End.
I had to work from home, I couldn't see him swimming, my life stopped too :) If you know a link that I can use to see him since Friday ( I worked over the weekend and last week extra hours) please, please let me know :0 so, I can live again :)
If Phelps wins the 400 IM on Sunday, watch out he'll be on a roll. I have Lochte winning the 400 IM, 200 back and being on the 800 free relay. Phelps will win the 100 and 200 flys, 200 IM, 400 medley relay and the 800 free relay - five golds, silver in 400 IM and 400 free relay. That would be a great way to go out in a sport that he's dominated for over a decade. Phelps scratched the 200 free so he's only eligible to win seven medals. He and Lochte may not be in the 400 free relay.
Ready for London, hell yeah!
@leavantgarage really when? I didn't know
I once had a goldfish named Phelps. He lasted about a week.
Or could it possibly be because "Michael" is one of the most common first names so the ones who are born talented like you mentioned just have a higher probability of being named Michael?
he won 8 in 2008, which is the maximum amount you can get in one Olympics.
He wouldn't can participate in the Olympics. He's a professional.
wish you the best best best luck .. you are always amazing no matter what ...
Michael Gerard "Mike" Tyson: greatest boxer !!
why else would someone who had one of the best finishes in the world finish like that?
name de song pliss nombre de la cancion name soundtrack plisssssss
You have to compete in ten events to have a chance to win 10 medals.
or maybe its cuz michael just happens to be one of the most popular names on the planet....
name de song nombre de la cancion de fondo sountrack plis
19 medals now. that's not a reason for disappointment.
I LOVE YOU
intro song?
what about the 200 fly? id consider that choking
Umm... still don't know who he is and what he has to do with what we were talking about.
wow what century are we living in?
It may not be politically correct to admit to... but he IS the greatest olympic athlete ever.
congrats to phelps and the american olympic team
Phelps just outperformed Lochte in the 4x100m relay. He's fine. Swimmers have their races and the 400m IM isn't Phelps'.
Dissapointed? Okay... you go out and get 15 GOLD medals from the Olympics. (19 medals in total) And also, he trains about 6-8 hours a day.. you try doing that!
I thought he was the King of POP!
No der r exceptions for eg...Michael owen
Perhaps that has more to do with the fact that the name Michael was the most popular name for boys for over 30 years. Just saying
You are confusing being famous with being successful, it is pretty stupid that I need to remind you he is an athlete and not a movie star. Media and fans do the first and the second is entirely thanks to his work.
no question a massive talent and accomplishment, however I wonder about the athleticism of the water , where humans are not native, to thye athleticism of land events, where humans are native. In other words, in my opinion, Phelps does not come close to athleticism of a Usain Bolt or the decathalon champion Ashton Eaton.
What is the music track?
