Sick video. Thanks for the insight! Just a quick question: did you personally reach out to any college coaches to get recruited, or did they reach out to you first?
Some colleges reached out to me and others I had to pursue them. I’d say reach out to as many as you like as most of them will be nice enough to respond. Thanks for the support!!
Great video. Thanks for sharing the protein and hydration brands you use! Really liked the workout - I modified a little to use for myself. Really helpful. Looking forward to the next video!!
Great video !! Always impressed by your training and your daily discipline !! Just wonder how you do dynamic warm up ? I have seen it in many of your workouts !!
Hi Kyle, thanks for another awesome video! I noticed that you are using some BPN product in this video. I’m a masters triathlete and have watched Nick Bare’s videos on his transition into triathlons and distance running. I’m not sure if you’re a regular user of BPN products but they could be a potential partner to hit up. I know you’ve talked about looking for potential partners in previous videos. You could offer Nick some free swimming analysis as a deal sweetener. We triathletes need all the help we can get! Ha ha. Thanks so much and go Bears! All the best from Stockholm, Sweden.
Ya I just bought some on a recommendation from my friend who had watched his videos, I wanted to try it out before I reached out for a deal. I will definitely be reaching out to him! Merry Christmas! Go Bears!
Yo Kyle, I was wondering how many yards you think is good to swim without overdoing it, thanks! Also great video, love seeing the pros training. One more thing, what is a flop?
Totally depends on your event and what part of the season you’re in. During our season we swim between 5k to 8k yards in a day between 1 or 2 practices. By flop, I just mean loosen up, do whatever stroke or drills you want, kind of just “flop” around.
Hi! I’m following you from the last month and you’re making so good content!! I’m also looking for a swimming cap like you’re wearing at this video, do you know were can I buy it? (I’m from spain)
I don’t know where you could buy a Cal cap specifically, I mean they only give them out to team members, but there are lots of caps like this on speedos website (that’s our sponsor)
Kyle when I drink water and eat nothing before a morning workout, I can always hear the water sloshing around and I makes my stomach uncomfortable. Any tips?
Well I’d recommend eating breakfast first off haha It’s important to eat breakfast, I had a bowl of cereal and fruit this morning but didn’t show it. It helps a lot with all of that. Also your body I feel like adjusts to it over time, I used to have that problem, even when I did eat
Hi Kyle! Sounds like you’re doing well! I was confused at first thinking why the training facility looked like the Bellevue club, but then realized it actually WAS the Bellevue club😅… Unfortunate that I couldn’t find you at some point, but I hope I’ll see you again sometime soon. I don’t know exactly when your training trip is, but if you’re heading out soon, have fun and good luck, and if you are in the middle of it or have already finished, good job and keep working hard👍
Hi again Kyle! I guess hardworking is one of the most important factors to become great person and to become a role model who can inspire people so that they can be great in whatever they want. Do you have some kind of motto or something?
Hey man, great content! Just wanted to offer a quick tip on your DB Bench. Instead of having your elbows flared out at 90 degrees, try bringing them towards your body at more of a 45 degree angle. This will take pressure off of your shoulders/rotator cuffs. This angle will also engage the chest more and provide an overall better chest pump. Try it and and let me know how it feels!
Yes I actually do 25-33% of my reps with 45% angle for that reason. I didn’t show all of those but you can kind of see it in the 60lb dumbbell shot I believe. My weights coach has suggested that to me. Definitely helps but is quite awkward.
Great question, the ones I showed in the video are called “swim” and have a block logo w 2 lines on it, but they are very similar to the arena short fins
Great question! Of pure caffeine, there is 300 mg, but there is also other things such as dicaffeine in it and other sources that provide a lasting effect similar to coffee. It’s a really good pre workout for swimmers as it provides sustained energy through warm up and the race without the straight jitters.
Hi Kyle. I have a question for you I am a D3 swimmer and I am currently having my best year for swimming however access to a pool around my area is hard right now with everything shutting down again. I don’t want to lose my ability this season. What do you suggest I do? Lift twice a day? Schedule my lifts longer? Or just keep lifting as much as I do and dieting properly?
That’s such a bummer but yes a great question! So it all depends on your body type. For someone like myself who is racing 200 yards and under, I think that lifting can be more beneficial if you’re doing it correctly and getting solid speed work while in the water. I find that as long as I’m able to hit 100 and 200 pace, I’m fine. For distance swimmers 200 yards and above, I feel like it’s all about endurance. You have to have that base, as opposed to the speed you need for other races.
Haha maybe I can do another video on that in the future. For swimming, my best tip is to think about getting your hips up. It helps keep the rest of your body more afloat and not dragging and causing you to be more hydrodynamic.
Great work! Let’s keep it going!
Thanks Matty J!!
Awesome video! I'm 15, about to turn 16 and I really want to swim D1 in college. We're both 200 swimmers, you're inspiring :) Keep up the great work.
Thanks so much for the support and best of luck to you! If you put in the work, you can swim D1 for sure!
Man, what a monster workout….I really don’t know how you’re keeping up with the academics after this hard work. Great job Kyle!
This was done over break but this is pretty much a normal day. Thanks for the support!!
Sick video. Thanks for the insight! Just a quick question: did you personally reach out to any college coaches to get recruited, or did they reach out to you first?
Some colleges reached out to me and others I had to pursue them. I’d say reach out to as many as you like as most of them will be nice enough to respond.

keep making these pls
Definitely will!!
Great video. Thanks for sharing the protein and hydration brands you use! Really liked the workout - I modified a little to use for myself. Really helpful. Looking forward to the next video!!
Ya the protein powder I use is my favorite, it has like minimal sugar and calories and really maximizes the protein.
Great job, I aspire to be like you when I'm older!
Thanks so much! With hard work comes great rewards
You Are Amazing! Happy holidays greetings from italy 🎊🎉🎉🎊🎊🎉
Thanks for the support, Happy Holidays!!
ottimo lavoro! concentrato e convinto di quello che fai! ottimo
Grazie!!
another banger of a video :) great work, keep it up :)
Appreciate the constant support, more bangers coming soon
Great video !! Always impressed by your training and your daily discipline !! Just wonder how you do dynamic warm up ? I have seen it in many of your workouts !!
Thanks so much!! Maybe I can do a tik tok/ TH-cam short on my dynamic warm up
Really like your videos man!
Thanks so much!!

Love the content bro
Thanks so much!!
I am so confused, you said 4000 meters, then you said 4000 yards. Which is it, dude?
Interesting question, you see, this pool is a SCM pool so meters but it looks small similar to yards

Hey man, i love your videos and your workouts. I wish one day i can be just like you. Keep up the good work!!
Keep up the hard work as well!
Love to see it!

Mandatory, my b!

Thanks so much for the support! It has been fun

Oh too funny! Yes I’m heading out soon, thanks for the support!!
the place is very supportive of swimming athletes, plus a hottub.
I really want that support
Swimming is always super supportive! Great community!
@@KyleMillis very nice community
Wake up new millis content dropped
It’s gonna be a good day then!!
Great video Kyle! How do you feel about fans of the vlog coming up to meet you (at Cal Invite for instance)?
For sure!! I’m totally open to it, would love to meet a fan!
Great work! Is it Bellevue Club? How would you compare it vs aquatics at PRO Club (for swimming specifically)?
Yes it is Bellevue Club! I’ve never been to Pro club or any other gym in the area, so I guess I couldn’t compare the two.
Hi again Kyle!
I guess hardworking is one of the most important factors to become great person and to become a role model who can inspire people so that they can be great in whatever they want.
Do you have some kind of motto or something?
I don’t have any motto I guess at the moment… besides “Go Bears” that is!
Hey man, great content! Just wanted to offer a quick tip on your DB Bench. Instead of having your elbows flared out at 90 degrees, try bringing them towards your body at more of a 45 degree angle.

What fins do you use?
Great question, the ones I showed in the video are called “swim” and have a block logo w 2 lines on it, but they are very similar to the arena short fins
The way my current swims are only 1 500m. 🤣😅 I think I would die if I did 4 000!
Gotta work your way up!!
Love the content. Keep up the great work.. all the best in ur new season..🔥🔥🔥
Do you add milk or water to your protein shake?
Thanks so much for the support!
I add water to my shake personally
How many mgs of caffeine are in your pre? Dope video btw
Great question! Of pure caffeine, there is 300 mg, but there is also other things such as dicaffeine in it and other sources that provide a lasting effect similar to coffee. It’s a really good pre workout for swimmers as it provides sustained energy through warm up and the race without the straight jitters.
@@KyleMillis That’s great man, I’m not a big fan of the jitters. I didn’t catch the brand name, is it also BiPro?
@@haydenbellotti8508 it’s called BPN Flight
Your videos are so great! I love them. So happy to have stumbled upon this. ☺️
Thanks so much!! Glad you enjoy them
Kyle Millis>Cody Miller
Hahah, maybe one day! He does a great job bringing energy to his vlogs, something that I'm trying to work on.
sigh our pool is closed due to covid so i cant train in the pool while im on break :(
Oh bummer!! Well stay safe and maybe do some dryland training at home
Hard Core, Dude
Thanks!!
question- why are u training alone?/ without a coach?
I was back home for the holidays so I had no coach to train with.
I love the GRIT! You are so dedicated! GO BEARS!
Love the Grit!! Go Bears!!

@@KyleMillis thank you I’m a distance swimmer so I will definitely go more for the endurance.
@@liamwhite8713 swimming or running is your best bet then
Bro how you gonna just take a pre-workout right after waking up lol. I wouuld have a major headache if I do that.
I’m basically addicted to caffeine so I don’t have a problem really, I have a headache if I don’t have about 200 mg of caffeine daily (minimum)
How long does it take you to complete your 4k swim workout?
Probably around 1 1/2 hrs since I gave myself some rest and had to film it
Normally we do 6k at college in 1:45
let's gooooo! good luck in the training camp
Thank you!! Go Bears!!
lol, u use BPN products, do u watch nick bare's TH-cam channel?
A friend turned me onto it and then I saw his videos. Definitely like the product a lot.
Cool. I slept almost one week after fall. The swimming pool water was warm or cold?
This pool water is normally pretty cold!!
@@KyleMillis 😶🌫️😶🌫️ It’s freezing. 👍👍👍
Ayeee! Great video
Thanks so much!! Appreciate the support!
Amazing vlog!! Marcos is now fake Kyle Millis
sad
Ouch that’s gotta hurt
Do you have basic swimming tips for normal people/not D1 athletes? How do you breathe lol
Haha maybe I can do another video on that in the future. For swimming, my best tip is to think about getting your hips up. It helps keep the rest of your body more afloat and not dragging and causing you to be more hydrodynamic.
OCA>>BCST
Can’t agree with this one personally haha
