that is...a terrible flip turn...and during your transition of fly kicks to flutter kick make sure your feet are at or near the surface of the water first
I sincerely hope you're joking, although it seems that you really mean it, cause your movements intend to be correct and are not goofy or something. grow up, and dont underestimate the work of decades, year after year of technique improvement, of muscle and cardiovascular adaptations and strengthening that have taken professional olympic athletes to where they are.
GINGERS HAVE NO SOULS!!! lol but really, got a long ways to work on your technique, kick, stroke, hip rotation, catching the water during the pull. gotta work on all that brosky
It is obvious it's not phelps. But the point is this guy doesnt even know what he is doing. This freestyle is terrible. Is this satire? has to be. Did he ever go to swimming lessons? does he know what catch-up drill is. his stroke is awfull
How is this Phelps?? This guy is way too skinny. I can tell he doesn't work out. And since when is phelps a red head? Also that is the worst flip-turn i've ever seen. Can't fool me!!
@AnB4Life00 Don't you realise he's not trying to fake Michael phelps???? Ever considered why he called it "Chasing Michael phelps"? The guy is ginger for fucks sake!
I don't think anyone has realized yet that this is just a group of guys trying to copy Michael Phelps training schedule, to see if they get as built as him >.>
why u use phelps name..?....thats a waste of time for people looking for some vids of the Mike....get it.... next time..put on some speedo's ,you go faster.....
I geuss you've seen some vids about a S-shape of your arms. what you do, is making a too big S, which will make you to 'grab' the water again. With a fluent S-shape, you need to feel a CONSTANT and EAQUAL pressure on your hand. And.. remember to make your move as long as possible: stretch to the whole length of your arms, push with HIGH ELBOWS all along the end and don't get your hand out of the water untill it's fully stretched.
In streamline, arms totally above head. It will feel like you are tucking your head down. Legs need to be at a 90 degree angle before you snap them down. Last thing, imagine a line in front of your head, do not let your hands cross that line in freestyle. Join a swim team.
Hey respect people, respect. I'm glad this guy is challenging himself to reach a goal. I'm not sure what his true goal is but just the fact that he is pushing himself to reach that goal is on its own a huge accomplishment. Not many people 'couch potatoes' can claim such accomplishment. While you people are sitting at home in front of your computer criticizing him, he is at the pool, track, bicycle, pushing his limits. Kudos buddy.
dude....your right shoulder is going to suffer because you are taking to long in breathing position. Get that face back down in the water before you bring that right arm down from extension. And QUIT CROSSING OVER YOUR CENTER LINE WHEN EXTENDED (dang it!) that's where your drag is coming from.
Until your kick is stronger you are just spinning your wheels after push off...get up top where you can get better speed until you can dolphin strong and quit lifting your hands while streamlined.
@ipodfreek955 haha is this really what tipped you off?!? just the shitty quality and angle tell you right off the bat, not to mention that no man with any dignity would get a tattoo around his belly button... just sayin
his strokes arn't that bad,your over reaching when you enter the water and your kicking is terrible, try to make it more fluid (im talking about the dolfin kick under water) also on your flutter kick point your toes more.
no offence but this guy does have bad technique...from the very beginning his fly kidk isn't getting him anywhere, holding a streamline that long is pointless. On his freestyle swim his arms are crossing over his centerpoint which means a lot of wasted energy. His turns also need a lot of work...btw trunks = bad idea, swimming with trunks actually will mess up your kick due to the amount of drag.
it seems people are confused. It's not phelps! Not even close. But for all the bench experts the technique is very solid so you should check yourself before commenting on this. Youtubers swear they could beat phelps by the way they comment.
Must agree. Funny comments here, especially the ones that are saying that his technique is good.
My advice... get coached, join a local USS team. You are swimming too flat, dropping your elbows, crossing over, hips are not consistently high in the water... I could go on and on... Your dolphin kick is crap and your turns are worse. Like I said, get coached.
Actual the technique is owesome. The oly thing thats right is his underwater fdolphin kicks. Those are Phelps Exact kicks so if I were you, and you don't o anything about swimming, I'd be quiet.

1) the dolphin kicks over relied on legs, but not body;
2) the hip were not high enough, and the legs were not straight enough in dolphin kicks;
3) free-style kick was strange;
4) free- style hands .. the chest didn't pull away enough;
5) relied on arms and hands to finish flip turn, that's an error for only beginner.
