Swimming is normal for me. I'm relaxed. I'm comfortable, and I know my surroundings. It's my home.

I don't have a strict diet. It's all about cramming in as many calories into my system as I possibly can. To be honest with you, I have a tough time keeping weight on.

There is a one woman in China that claimed she paid $50 to get my e-mail address. It was pretty shocking. I got one this morning from Scotland. A girl's requesting a signed photo of me.

I live a pretty conservative life, so I probably really haven't done anything crazy.

Why is it such a big deal what I'm swimming?

If you're not on your 'A' game in our workouts every day, you're going to get absolutely smoked.

If you want to be the best you have to do things that other people aren't willing to do.
