“Eat a lot of fish” CANNIBAL!
*I understood*
Ha! Ha! 😂
To be a swimmer you must eat a swimmer.
This comment
@@clarkkent1521 ohohoh nice! XDD
Wow how great it was to see him explain his whole diet
@CENTERWING HEMI great job. you sure showed him.
@CENTERWING HEMI LOL
Save the whales Nuke the whales have u ever actually swam
@Save the whales Nuke the whales I can’t tell if you seriously think that was a legitimate argument or just trolling.
@Save the whales Nuke the whales What? This man works out 4 hours a night, has a fast metabolism and propably has people who know everything about nutrition helping him. It is entirely possible that he is speaking the truth.
im a swimmer and trust me swimmers are always hungry yet still skinny
Sammy M I can relate. I eat McDonalds a lot and is still considered skinny......
Correction *athletes r always hungry*
Hungry and skinny is not really contradictory but yeah
Ever met a runner?
@@elpoundo4235 someone's been eating alot but gaining weight
I'm not a swimmer but I can relate to that. I used to do cardio by swimming after weight training but then I start to realize I was losing muscle mass no matter how much I ate so I actually had to just stop and switch to running or incline walk. The amount of calories you burn while swimming ain't no joke, let alone being on an Olympic level.
Jajajajaja true story😂😂😂
you werent losin muscle mass from swimming, you were burning fat and losing weight. you cant lose muscle mass from doing a workout while also doing weight training
Late comment but you were not losing muscle mass. As in losing muscle, like definitely 'leaving your body' Losing muscle mass is so overrated online, unless you are barely eating, under 5%body fat and doing cardio you're not losing muscle
@@efwfew 😪im under 5% fat probably like 3% or may be less..
@@linuxbasic3399 yea no you're not unless you're pro bodybuilder or suffer anorexia
Even his face cut is aerodynamic
hydrodynamic ☝🤓
@@dylans.6400 🤦🏾♂️
Wait so he only eats chicken and spinach? For once somebody made a video too short. There's like no content here.
Fenris17 probably not much more to it. Swam in college and had a similar diet. Chicken, spinach, tuna, salmon, quinoa, beets, sweet potatoes, brown rice. It’s not very complicated to eat healthy
Michael Valceanu you're right. They should have just made this video, same title, then just said "ha, idiot, it's not that complicated!" And then cut. Would have taken them 5 seconds. You're so smart
This was literally the biggest waste of 1:29 ever
LOL I actually heard he used to kill pasta and pizza all the time. Now that he's older he must have a more restricted diet
One ultramarathon runner take only veg diets
Even when he says absolutely nothing special or helpful, it’s still exciting and inspiring for some reason
how truthful this guy is. didnt miss a single day of training for 5 straight years. nothing special is it?
@@sahilagarwal6601 The point he, nothing he says surprises us. I would expect the best in the world to train everyday and eat a lot and make various kinds of sacrifices. But it's still inspiring to hear is from their mouths.
Literally did not state one single thing that he ate during training.
He literally said chicken and fish and spinach
Are fucking deaf? He mentioned like 5 different foods!
@@nasirrumpart644 Which doesn't seem like a lot for someone maintaining a 5000-10000 calorie diet. Would have been nice to see examples of full meals and snacks, and when he eats between all that training.
You sir are not a joke, you are the whole circus.
You sir, are not a joke. You are the entire circus.
To get to 10k calories you'd need to eat a room full of spinach.
covered in ice cream!
More
@@charlesbromberick4247 more like with a party tub of ice cream. A room full of ice cream would be pushing 7 figures in calories lol
But once you cook it, it all fills up in a bowl.
Probably a lot more
Michael Phelps telling you to eat your greens for 1min 30 seconds straight.
When I swam I was hungry 24/7. My parents would be so happy to watch the leftovers leave the fridge the next day!!
incredible athlete....couldn't believe how much this guy had to eat to achieve what he did....pretty awesome.
Yeah well, I don't swim or anything and eat 8,000-10,000 calories a day no problem.
You 500lb?
What foods do you eat to get so much ??...
Sure buddy...
You woulda been captured by the government and dissected for scientific purposes if what you said was true bruh
@Kyle Espinas r/whooosh
This is why i chose swimming as my means of caloric burning for my diet because its fun and ez on the joints plus is THEE most effective.
I really thought he had a revelation to lay down. No secret in the dirt, talent goes all the way.
and hard work
Sounds right. You workout hard you get great results
Hoy 8 de agosto cumple 37 años mi ídolo de hace muchos años lo he visto en Argentina y 6 veces en el OPEN de EEUU le deseo lo mejor para él y su familia cariños 🎾🎾🎾
the 🐐 himself. what a legend
Stating that sportsmen carreer is (most of the time) more or less short, all hard work combined with such lifestyle worth every single penny earned. As Usain Bolt once said: "I trained all my life to be the best. Now that my career has ended, I can live a normal life and eat junk food". With just a "little bit" more money 😉
Oh..that is terrible..why mess with what God has gifted you with Food and right eating will gift you with healthy..not junk food..man makes junk food..all that is bad man has harmed in our food causing early death and sickness. All the chemical God never did All natural..is health Bit now that he has ceased athletics as a daily..he can have more to choose from May he choose wisely. The devil would sow thoughts to steal kill and DESTROY..GOD HAS COME TO GIVE LIFE MORE ABUNDANTLY John 10:10 King James Version 10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. Keep doing what you have done ..choose wisely in retirement.. God Bless You
This guy is the man :-)
yes he is body
Hardest worker prolly up there with any sports goat cr7 ali phelps federer woods
I'm a big fan of this diet minus the physical activity.
ma man
No gym?? Or swimming
I can agree on that last statement as a fellow swimmer
Well said
The way he talks is so cute
Swimming legend the goat of swimming all time
A few years ago the Baltimore Sun published his diet (junk food version) and journalist went out for one meal. It was something like 6,000 calories with 3 red bulls and the journalist was so sick he could barely walk.
Yes, finally the truth.
most athletes who are used to eating 8000 calories a day, end up to become gigantic bloated beings after they retire. Michael Phelps is still completely shredded like he's shooting the cover a Mens Health magazine later in the day.
Maybe he still trains, just not as hard as he used to
My brother got your autograph at Jimmy's resteraunt in fells point the year you won those medals,they have the best crabcakes in maryland.
Who’s else didn’t know the video was so short and said “that’s it” when it finished 😭
I don't believe for a second he was actually consuming that much on a daily basis. Certainly not eating stuff like spinach and chicken breast. The amount of volume he'd have to consume would make it impossible to train lmao.
seems crazy right
He didn't said he was eating that much on clean food. He said at the beggining he was only trying to achieve the daily amount of calories, obviously not clean. Then preparing for 2016 olympics he took it "easier" because he realized his body was no longer what it was, and started eating less calories but with high quality food. At least that's what I understood
I’ve seen other clips of him talking about eating 10,000 cals and he was smacking so many waffles and pancakes with maple syrup.
Its obvious you dont train. When i was in high school i was also eating that much during training because your body needs it for energy and recovery. I still train hard as an older guy and have to come up with cleaner ways to eat and put back the calories lost every week. Welcome to the real world of being a high performance athletes.
@@pakipolu1 ur delusional lmao
I like his hair
Michael Phelps' shits must have been legendary.
He’s soooo cute😍
What is this dude’s deal? I’ve heard him in videos say that the stories about him eating 10k calories weren’t true that they were exaggerated, then I see him saying he did eat the much.
He takes drugs So it won't matter how many calories he may consume
Make the music much more louder please
True and I’m a swimmer
Cue all the armchair athletes "8-10k calories! I hate him he's sooo skinny. How does he do it?!" Welp he's an Olympic swimmer sooo yeah
Yeh literally no one in the comments has said that except you
This is the first time I’ve seen his face up close and heard his voice. Thought he looked like someone else😂
That's my calorie intake for 5 days....
😂😂😂
Yea eating is difficult....I xan feel u
congratulations on the baby brethren
Don't forget the marijauna 😂
He's a Sea Monster.
Phelps actually makes me want to eat right for once.
I want to become dolphin like this guy one day 🤣🤣
I'm not standing up on what principle since your so fucking funny
Who thought the thumbnail was Ty from DudePerfect????
You just read my mind 🤯 I was thinking the same thing!
He's Aquaman
Nice
This is why not every country can produce top level athletes
Ya te digo yo que si son buenos deportistas se aseguraran de darles de comer lo que necesiten
Ppl generally call a guy with a beautiful wife lucky. But let me tell you, a lot of work goes behind that scenario, and its not worth it at the end of the day. THIS GUY! is the luckiest guy in the world. He gets to do what he loves, and his work makes him eat whatever he wants to eat. What more can a guy ask for?
I'm ultra jealous of him 🥺
You know he almost committed suicide because of depression right? Nobody has a perfect life
swimmers train like hell and swim like fishes everyday, just to cut milliseconds off their own records. Especially Olympians, they train for 4 years to either make histories or become one, there’s no in-between. Yes they have coaches and professional nutritionist to help designing their routine and meals. But can you imagine eating those stuffs everyday? The stresses they are bearing are just too much to imagine for recreational swimmers like us.
I literally thought the thumbnail was Ty from Dude Perfect.
I am 74, recently started swimming. Learning off KZhead to do lap swimming and I do 1000 yards about once a week and 700+ most days. Am I a swimmer or a pretender? My goal is 1500 yards in another 6 months or so....
That’s awesome and especially at 74 that’s incredible
I learned how to swim off KZhead too! I had to get an instructor though bc I injured botjy my shoulders due to poor form
Who else thought that it was Tony Tyler on the thumbnail??😂
Dude perfect
Millions of years of evolution, just to make that jawline sharper to cut through the water..
I remember he did a livestream Instagram during the Rio Olympics, the man was downing a full bottle of Powerade.
Pete's Grill!!!! -U10
You wouldn't believe the # of fat guys who would come into Pete's and try to eat the Michael Phelps Diet. 100% failure rate. -U10 "Those seeking sustenance flocked to Phelps's favorite greasy spoon, Pete's Grille, where his traditional pretraining breakfast was offered during the Olympics as a $19.95 special: a three-egg omelet, a bowl of grits, three slices of French toast with powdered sugar, three chocolate-chip pancakes and three fried-egg sandwiches with cheese, lettuce, tomato, fried onions and mayo." -SI, c2008
The most important bit: 'I do like a burger though...' Phelps, I've made notes 😂😂
He’s misinformed about red meat btw. It’s very nutritious. Far more than chicken
A few trips to 7 eleven for Twisties and Kit Kat’s when he had the munchies
You stole my car analogy
Thumbnail looked like Ty from Dude Perfect
Me watching this right after having 2 Big Macs with fries
"I do love burger anyways"
I just joined my swim team. I haven’t even submitted my athletic packet yet lmao. Time to become Michael
Elite athletes and bodybuilders will often speak negatively of diet and food intake. Jay cutler, former mr. Olympia said he HAS no favorite food. When you eat to the point where you're uncomfortable, the dynamic changes. However, for most of us we starve ourselves and STILL have to struggle to button our pants :)
He looks like Danny D
He looks like Tyler from dude perfect on the thumbnail
The thumbnail looks like Ty from dude perfect
I want see him eat the 10K calorie food..
Nice video!! But the Musik is too loud !
Jan, is that your fine photo in profile? Wonderful.
I jump in a lake and swim ; gasp how
A couple bong rips as well
I've never thought Micheal Phelps could be actually Popeye!
Having the munchies must of helped u eat all that 😂
He smoked weed?
He didn’t describe his actual diet lol
Amazing we still dont know his diet
0:26 my boyfriend hehe i want that pic on my wall
write the equation without a calculator goes...
The older you get the more quality matters
Bit of weed helps the apettite as well , the odd bong and all that , top bloke !
time to become a swimmer
I remember a story that my uncle told me, where my cousin would bring her friend over who was a swimmer, and the first thing she would do was go to the kitchen and start shoveling food into her mouth.
Jajajaja duuude 👍 👍 👍
Yea I remember coming from swim practice and just eat like 2 meals in 30 mins, being a swimmer is really hard but many people respect it because many aren’t born with the talent.
Was starting to worry about him until he said he does love a good Burger.
a burger a day :)
I was expecting more greens
The masses: "You can't out work a bad diet." Michael Phelps: "Hold my beer."
10K calories is a week for me
He didn’t mention the bong hits
somebody can't calm down ; electronic fuse holder standing somewhere live wire upset
How many calories would an Olympic swimmers burn freestyle 800 meters under 9 Minutes ?
An average fit dude would burn 64 calories
Spinach everyday! Popeye knew that
Yes but Popeye had those cans. I can't find those.
nice this is what michael phelps 's diet was like during training ?
Didnt even mention the most important thing: carbs
Amusix ikr lol
Rice and pasta lol
I thought it might be the fish
Is a Moster
8k-10k calories per day is simply BS. Phelps would probably be burning on the order of 1k calories per hour in the pool, add on 2.5k "baseline", and you're at 4.5-6.5k calories depending on training load.
Nadando comendo, dormindo e cagando! 😅😅😅😅
This tells us fuck all.
I eat a lot of sushi 🍱 and vegetables 🥗 so I’m on track
I feel like I can't eat very much after a hard workout.
