Michael’s Phelps’ Diet
Phelps does not have a strict menu to follow. He actually eats what he wants to eat, whenever he wants it. For the normal day, here is what he usually eats:
Breakfast: 3 fried egg sandwiches; cheese; tomatoes; lettuce; fried onions; mayonnaise; three chocolate-chip pancakes; 5-egg omelette; 3 sugar-coated slices of French toast; bowl of grits; 2 cups of coffee Lunch: Half-kilogram (1 pound) of enriched pasta; 2 large ham and cheese sandwiches with mayonnaise on white bread; energy drinks Dinner: Half-kilogram of pasta, with carbonara sauce; large pizza; energy drinks
He eats white bread instead of whole wheat bread.
He eats only 3 big meals instead of spreading them to more meals with smaller portion.
He eats not so much fruits and vegetables. Instead, he eats damn lot of carbohydrates – pasta and bread.
Michael Phelps’ Workouts and Training Routines
Phelps trains for six hours a day, six days a week, without fail.
“He swims approximately 50 miles (80km) each week, which is over 8 miles per training day. He has two massages everyday and also takes icebaths to help his body to recover.”
“In order to slice through water with those deadly powerful strokes, one must be strong in multiple planes of motion. True enough, according to what his coach has disclosed, Michael Phelps does diagonal wood choppe and straight wood chopper.
Phelps does other typical strength trainings, 3 times a week with 1 hour each session, but those trainings focus in building his muscle endurance and flexibility in addition to improving his stroke power. With such a powerful and long stroke, when others have to take 12 strokes, he probably cover the same distance with only 8 strokes.
As for cardiovascular exercise, Micheal Phelps relies on stationary bike because running is too much hazard for his knees. Believe it or not, Phelps often tripped and fell often when he run. Rumor said his flexibility in his knees and ankles, though enhanced his performance in pool, results in some loss of stability on land.”
Here are guidelines how you can do diagonal woodchopper:
1. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. Hold a medicine ball with both hands.
2. Lift the medicine ball over your right shoulder.
3. Then, chop down across your body by moving the medicine ball towards the ground outside of your left foot.
4. Return to the starting position.
5. Do 3 sets with 10 repetitions for each side.
How you can do straight woodchoper
1. Lie on your back on the floor. Bend your knees, but your feet remains flat on the floor.
2. Hold the medicine ball directly above your head.
3. Contract your abdominal muscles and lower the ball behind your head as far as you can without lifting your back or bending your arms. The motion is like chopping the air, but in one single straight plane.
4. Do 3 sets of 10 repetitions.

Hamilton’s 2008 world championship training began in November at the Kuortane Sports Institute in Finland and at McLaren’s headquarters in Woking, Surrey. Each week he’s completed 5-10 intense training sessions. Cardiovascular work lasts between 45min and 3hr and involves running, cycling and swimming, supplemented by hiking, snowshoeing and skiing. Gym workouts focus on improving neck and abdominal muscles.
“A typical training day might consist of getting up early, going for a run and then coming back for a good breakfast – I have to be careful of what I eat, so this is very important,” says Hamilton.
“Then I’ll go to the gym, though we might do a sport or go swimming. I have lunch, then we may go for a long bike ride and then I come back and go to the gym for another hour or two.”
