Caeleb Dressel and the Tale of Two Sprinters | Off the Blocks S2 Ep1
Спорт
The summer of 2018 wasn’t as successful as for Caeleb Dressel as he had hoped, while fellow sprinter Michael Andrew racked up win after win at the Phillips 66 National Championships.
That’s all in the past now, and Dressel has returned to training, hungry for this summer’s FINA World Championships. In the meantime, Andrew has had continued success at the TYR Pro Swim Series in Knoxville.
“Off the Blocks,” Season 2 follows Dressel, Andrew and the other top USA Swimming National Team members as they compete in the TYR Pro Swim Series and prepare for the biggest competitions of the season, including the 2019 Open Water National Championships and the 2019 FINA World Championships.

2:52 That shark dancing in the background tho I’m dead 🤣😂
Honestly Caeleb is such an inspiration, he is probably my favorite swimmer ever. I think many swimmers can relate to him, he is very real and he shows what the sport is rly like.

This series is fantastic, hope it continues to shed more light on the sport of swimming! Edit: I also love how Cody Miller is in every single one of these with his vlogs haha
Caleb Dressel: I will get revenge! 1 year later, that feels about right :D

If you look at all these great swimmers, it makes me feel Michael Phelps is a true legend. He barely ever loses in every event he swims in.

Caeleb Dressel is polite humble and a great athlete
Great episode!

You should make a video like this about dealing with injuries, mentally and physically
Incredible series, kudos to whoever is responsible for this.
Guys nice job,I swim for a USA team,I really enjoy your videos and your videos force me to train even harder.
ughh their box jumps look so smooth
Keep up this series...PLEASE
6:05 I like how caeleb said just it’s a lie just run
awesomeeeeeee very good job
the best Caeleb Dressel 💪
Checking in after Caeleb finished his Olympics 2020 😎
God Bless you Caeleb !
This was cool
Heck Yeah! Dressel!
Back then there was some sort of comparison between Dressel and Micheal Andrew but now Dressel is light years ahead
I hope he gets his own KZread channel so he can start doing vlogs he’s incredible swimmer and person I’ll see him again in 2020 hopefully be able to do a swim with him this year I didn’t do it because I didn’t like the sport of swimming but I ended out on a great note and I’m gonna have a fresh start in the fall and new coaches I’m excited.
Amazing
4 months later he broke the 100 butterfly world record and then he broke the 50 freestyle record

Anthony Nesty is a LEGEND ... name another swimmer who got their face on the money in their home country ...

The next big thing
Just saying that pushing off without a wall has significantly helped me with my underwater. If anyone else is like me and isn't great at underwater give it a go. It really helps
One word and one word only 🐐
Ya it's Dressel from me. Keep the episodes coming though.
Fast forward to now and RIP Michael’s chances of ever coming close to Caeleb again lmao
Cody’s a fav
Nice.

Hi
Songs?
Guys think Andrew will be on the 4x100 free in 2019 or 2020? That should be an interesting.. I think he could also push for the breast in the medley. Also will be interesting to see if the Fosters could shake things up come 2020

What do you guys think about Michael Andrew's chances this summer at world championships? I think his best chance for gold is in the 50m butterfly. Let's face that he won't win (or even final) in any 100. Ben Proud will smoke him in the 50 free if Caeleb won't, it will take a world record to beat koleshnikov in the 50 back this summer and the only person that could've possibly challenged Peaty in the 50 breast is Cameron van der Burgh. I don't necessarily think Michael will win it, but the other 50s are just not up for grabs.
