At my local high school state meet, the FASTEST boys struggle to break :50 ...This kid went 45.8 at age 14 (barely a freshman)! That would've been fast enough to make B finals at NCAAs last year. 14 year olds even having NCAA cuts is insane to me
i’m struggling to break 50 but this video is so inspiring yet discouraging at the same time lmao. it just shows it doesn’t matter how old or how big you are. it’s about your feel for the water
@@morganfowle4677 naw when the two of them went sub 20 in the 50 everyone was screaming for a solid minute straight and then just clapping. Straight chills
Coaches were once swimmers themselves so its also a lot about there own experience. Of course the sport changes and technique can change but coaches can make swimmers feel the grit and sweat that they once felt cause they have being through it.

@@canyonbain3939 i honestly think swimming is all about how your body is composed
For comparison…Caeleb Dressel was 45.7…at 17
@@canyonbain3939 being this fast at this young of an age is almost entirely due to genetics. Don’t feel bad.
@@canyonbain3939 he’s also massive
I love how his underwaters are long enough that he doesn't have to worry about clashing arms with the flyer next to him.
I watched this kid swim the 200 IM he went like 1:46 and scratched finals just to go to another meet. Mad lad.
cap classics?
I was there
The world record is a 1 49
@@benaiahmbao9178 different course length. SC or yards vs LC metres
@@benaiahmbao9178 that's the short course *meters* record. They were referring to short course *yards*
He’s too powerful

sub 24s, in traffic, in practice!?!?!?! WOAH, that's a level beyond fast. 5/6/6/6 strokes!?!?! That's some great underwaters.
Guy next to swimming heilman is a comedian
Ikr. It looks very fun to practice with him
He went a 19.63 in his anchor leg of the 200fr relay, saw him swim at our state meet. Dude is built different

Lovely stroke at that age ,breathing every other,more to come from him ,100/200 I hope
I watched this dude race at JNATS and was speechless
Just as impressed with Coach Taylor here…..teaching basics is so important.
No wonder his open turns are so smooth naturally
That's insane!
This kid is gonna go 1:36 for a 2fly in college for sure
You know, he may go even fast now that we've seen him go 1:53 in LCM
The only time I’ve seen someone that young look that natural at butterfly are Phelps and Milak…
dudes got killer underwaters too… no wonder he’s a flyer!!
Wow!
Villa Diner 🔥🔥
It’s there like a book these coaches learn all these small technical details or do they learn it from other coaches or on their own?
that’s what i wonder
the best teacher is experience. books help but only so much. i have learned more from every coach ive swam for than any book could ever teach me

thats not no 14 year old bro got the back of a 24 year old man
Training hard to become like this kid
How's it coming?
Insane
How many 50s did he do
This is yards right?
I HAVE A PIC WITH HIM OMGOMGOGM
what length is the pool?
25 yards
🏊🏻♂️
What's his height and weight?
6’1-6’2
Something about the fastest youth swimmer in America wearing vanquishers with no cap during practice just rubs me the wrong way
I wear vanquishers with no cap in practice
Man wtf
Ikr
STAP TOK
He is the new Phelps wtf
There will never be another Phelps.
@@scottpoll6357 in terms of impact, probably not, in terms of speed? Highly likely
Tim Wu is this valid?
bros calling the pls kids out
He’s now made the Olympic team
This is aging very well lol
This is what you people do lol
