As the most decorated Olympian of all time, it's no secret that Michael Phelps works hard. In fact, when training for the Olympics, he once did 75 workouts in 24 days.
He was in Colorado Springs at the United States Olympic Training Center, training there for several weeks. All they did, he says, was eat, sleep, swim and lift. Pool workouts were scheduled for 5 a.m. to 7 a.m., 9 a.m. to 11 a.m., and 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., followed by a weight session. Working out and training that much takes some intense drive, Robbins acknowledges. So where did Phelps find the determination?At his first Olympic Games in Sydney, Phelps finished fifth in the 200-meter butterfly.
