Michael Phelps - Butterfly 1/3 (Underwater Camera)

[@morganstewart86]

I got to meet Michael Phelps for swim and he taught us all a lot about how to get our butterfly better. And it really helped because i got 1st in the state for butterfly! THANKS MICHEAL PHELPS FOR ALL YOUR HELP!

[@mooseolly7744]

his slow motion is faster than my fast motion

[@joselatrini]

Moose Olly Equal for alls.

[@Peppercat3120]

+Moose Olly Same here :/

[@funkyfro929]

this comment made me spit my beer out. it's too damn true.

[@hudson6680]

Maybe your brain is too slow for any kind of motion

[@sandeeppokhriyal1141]

Wow, so true!!!!

[@tjallobascon]

When I do butterfly, I'll probably break my school's record...for the slowest swimmer in all its years. Phelps makes it look so easy.

[@hammerman2006]

Legend has it Michael Phelps can breath on land.

[@amersayyed-fassadalhoussai2823]

The most beautiful stroke to watch yet the hardest to perform because it's very very tiring!

He teaches a dolphin to swim.

[@MissyFrankie]

This video is awesome! So clear. So easy to see how he moves and it looks so amazing!

[@lillymclean7536]

I'm swimming this at a swim meet (100m fly) and I am FREAKING OUT! This really helped even though I have been swimming butterfly for about 3 years now...

[@tommychen6102]

That explains why i need to do stretching to be more flexible. Look at his back and his legs! He's so flexible!

[@markosparic3280]

Wonderful video! He is really the best swimmer of all times! Look at this performance, he is flexible like a cable! To me is so sorry because I now have closed pool in my place! I have excellent performance of butterfly!

[@osrodrig]

Perfection.

[@SwimmingFit]

I don't think Micheal is going to retire i feel like he will come back to it just like an army man going back to the army because he misses the memories and the thrill. Look at that form, so efficient and fast those hips work really good man just watching this video gives you an understanding of the butterfly and the sync you have to go through.

[@Mohammered]

I love the ring of bubbles forming around him after his hands enter the water.... damn you for your beautiful technique :P

[@greg55666]

This video is great, it shows perfectly the correct timing of the kicks. It's so hard for me to get the second kick right! I always do it at the beginning of the pull, but it needs to be the last thing as your arms are coming out of the water. Okay I'll do it!

[@isolation4027]

+greg55666 Make sure there's no dead spot between the hand entry and the beginning of the pull. Your 2nd kick will be delayed as a result. My 2 cents.

[@greg55666]

+tisstra sistra I believe I finally "felt" the butterfly stroke for the first time yesterday in the pool. I have been having an impossible time getting the second kick right, my body naturally strongly wants to kick WITH the pull instead of after. Finally yesterday I think I felt it. I kicked after the pull, and the second kick actually propelled me forward as my head was out of the water. With my head out of the water I could actually feel and see a forward thrust from my kick before I fell back in. It was really amazing. Is that what it's supposed to feel like?

[@reubenwest9283]

@@greg55666 5 years later, how's your butterfly now?

[@greg55666]

@@reubenwest9283 LOL COVID. I'll tell you next winter. :)

[@anuskav1850]

I have the same problem and I don't know how to fix it. It's very annoying and I have watched soo many videos but nothing works. I learned butterfly this way since I was young and my body is just used to doing it wrong.

[@alitavakolpur]

i do the butterfly well but he's extraordinary...technique is very important and the technique he got is exceptional

[@migabre]

This is an excellent explanation by the greatest swimmer ever , Thank you for sharing this fantastic information .

[@sauen1234]

regularly breathing at every stroke is slower. Marc the word regularly. This is a exception. :D

[@ehouck26]

watching this video and studying his technique has helped me drop time on my 100 fly. im down to a 55

[@bcurkovic]

very helpful seeing in slow motion... thanks for posting!

[@juliannevillecorrea]

fluid mechanics !!! this video contains more info then my text book !!

love watching this vid especially when im in a bad mood ~

Extraordinaria la toma detallando los movimientos...útil para los que queremos mejorar la técnica...Gracias por postar..¡¡

GREAT TECHNIQUE!!! simply awesome

i can do that. here, hold my beer

Lol

Wanker 🤣

[@emmaburkhart5190]

Fly is amazing to watch. I try to get better every day with my swim team. Btw, joeandmom, his feet are supposed to move like that.

[@xandrunull]

What a monster stroke! Awesome

[@lemonlimestatue]

holy crap.. his technique is perfect

[@ODX_Animation]

Phelps is very flexible and is double jointed in a lot of areas. Not many people, if any, could have the range of motion he's able to have.

[@elixirnova]

Good compilation

[@Haddasa]

he is like a fish--fins and all ---amazing!

[@latitepopo27]

C'est toujours aussi beau ...

[@AskTheAmatuer]

very helpful to watch actually

[@kateriostler5925]

oh wow. Today is our first day of practice and we havent been in the water all year!

[@nanayning]

..whoa!^^, there must be a lot power when he's doing the stroke^^, very impressive....super like!^^,

[@thangpm]

high quality clip. Thanks

[@avitheswimmer5988]

Superb man

[@Davidpaddy2001]

i really appreciate thie cameraman

[@Levi-ql2os]

he's not a faking normal fish , he is the fastest dolphin in the world

[@januarmartha3160]

The most fascinating to me is his identical movement each stroke each cycle

[@mikesinaro]

Everyone's style of swimming is different dude, that's why its never good to attempt to copy one's form. The point is to mold your body around what gives you more acceleration and less drag, based on your shape, strength and flexibility/movement. I guarantee you ALL of the Olympic level swimmers wouldn't swim nearly as good as they do if they were to attempt to replicate Michael's style in all four strokes. Not that anyone liked his breaststroke technique, it was his only real Achilles' heel.

[@unforgotable1]

What a fucking flexibility!

[@Rusikindusik]

amazing vid,thanks,SamuraiK7

[@ddyoung]

Amazing!

It's so beautiful

[@dewinmoonl]

He's... he's a fish...

[@HoneyB429]

I like it very much

[@ViniBsb1973]

remember keep the knees together when doing the underwater dolphin kick. that's crucial to get more propulsion.

[@suswapnamukherjee3914]

🙏my respect to u..

[@gybx4094]

He's breathing every stroke, you guys, so lay off those of us who do the same! ;-) Notice how he bends his knees more than you would expect. He practically leaps forward at an angle with that pull-kick timing. Everyone is different. We all have different physiologies.

[@SaraVanWijck]

I'm a swimmer, it's a hard stroke, he lets it seem so easy

[@primasitumorang]

yesterday when i swim finally i can make it,,so happy and still trying to make it better

[@gvicky96]

that is awesome

[@fclavijo]

i like how efficient he is, he doesnt take his arms all the way to the fron cuz he doesnt need to...

[@jimc8442]

0:09 How does MP put his hands over his head like that? I keep putting my hands inline with my head and need to fix it!

[@alone66666]

He has greater shoulder mobility than most people, don't expect to be able to do what he does.

[@Longhahahai]

omg I really want to swim like him :0

[@sboarder7778]

I have a swim meet tomorrow, and am racing a 100 m fly. any advice?

[@EdgarSteven]

Niqqa a beast ! shyt man this is wat i suk the most at

[@santiagolish]

@bijoyroy11 why is his technique flawed? when are you supposed to kick? just curious

[@Nnd12nghgsmsh]

I have a strong kick in butterfly, but I can't seem to get the arm movement right...Any tips?

[@Xxs0ldi3rxX1]

First of all boxy. If you enter wider. You pull straight back and have a smoother rhythm. I am a flyer and the main things that pull together a stroke are hand entry dropping your head with your stroke. Never lifting your chin above the water pushing your chest down to follow and kicking with your thighs.

[@JazmyneDrakeford]

this man as built for swimming

[@heidipicard]

It looks like he has no bones. Really impressive

[@averyandkayla1420]

I am working on my butterfly with my coach and he said to watch this and I did

[@TheGaaaaabii]

LO ADMIRO MUCHO!.

[@maesart8174]

my swim team coach wont stop talking about him!!!

[@rottentwapple]

0:41 Such glee in his every whipping. He returned to the very first stage of his life, just before the moment of becoming an impregnated egg.

[@Cvoong]

@smokycannon It doesn't really matter, for michael phelps that works best for him, it really depends if you pull enough water or not. As long as you don't pull too wide then it's fine.

[@Moltensahir]

He makes it looks so damn easy !

[@wildwestcountry]

beast mode

[@PHYLUCAS]

i proud of u......Michael

[@hidetodavis1408]

are your triceps supposed to get tired in butterfly?

[@amersayyed-fassadalhoussai2823]

Is it possible that there can be a new stroke to be made?

[@Skyliet]

my trapezius muscles are the most tired ... triceps is the second

[@santiagolish]

@bijoyroy11 cool, thanks for taking the time to answer

[@MrSwimmingmango]

dude if you make it onto the olympics and even trials you're a real hot tamale !

[@enloug2009]

Yall... Why i cant stop liking all of your comments🤣 so relatable:D

[@timothydewa9096]

I prefer Mr. Phelps technique, 🏊🏼‍♂️ breathing every strokes, streamlined underwater. However each other adaptation is varieties, it depends on how you feel better 🙂

[@markialgerian]

superbe

[@alexchng]

Just curious, but why is that almost all the flyers I've seen breathe every stroke? Isn't that exhausting? I mean, I breathe every other stroke, but I'm not professional so...

[@swimmergirl8710]

All swimmers adn all other athletes are winners as long as they try their best!! You don't have to win even one medal at all to be good and worth anything!! Everybody has to start somewhere, adn you can't always do everything perfectly, and we all make mistakes!!

[@hairynipzzz]

@im857 whats your time for freestyle?

[@RaginConvict]

is my lower back supposed to get tired??

[@stefanvo2746]

+Mitchell W "that's me dude"-my friend julio

[@Skyliet]

I read from some source if your lower back get tired then you are doing it wrong, but if your abdominal muscle get tired then you are doing it right .... sometimes my back get tired more than my abs ^^ ... try to use fins, it will help you "feel" the right motion of the butterfly

[@vincenthana541]

He can swim faster than I can run.

[@uselessvideos100]

if i were to be trapped on an island with 3 things i would choose: Him A gold medal tied to a stick A saddle

[@romanmir01]

what does it mean: deserve? He can sell his service as an advertising platform, it doesn't matter why the people who pay him do it, they pay him because they believe that with his advertising they will sell more product. If they are right and they can sell more product because he advertises it, it means that he is part of the production system, and thus he didn't take that money from thin air, he is the reason that more products are created and sold. That means he MADE the money.

[@1029KT]

his 90 degree dolphins are incredible

[@laurenisnotonfire]

WOOHOO! I'M DOING THE STOKE RIGHT!

[@sboarder7778]

@pintormick a high school one? haha

[@Nate544444]

you're right. tim tebow doesn't deserve a lot of the money he makes either. It's true for 95% of pro athletes. But I'm a big fan of Tim Tebow though. He's the man.

so cool when his hands crash into the water >:D
