Michael Phelps Biography

Micheal Phelps biography continues when Michael started swimming at the age of 7 partly because of his "extra energy." His load of energy was diagnosed as ADHD and swimming was a great outlet for it. Needless to say, he is very blessed with this ability to move through the water at high speeds. Water and Michael Phelps were a perfect match! He has excelled in swimming at such a rapid pace, that at the age of 23 he already holds the record for the most gold medals won at a single Olympics. 16 medals all together will hang in his medal case. An unbelievable accomplishment for this young man!

There is no doubt that he has a natural swimming ability, but he also works at it very hard!

Michael Phelps Girlfriend

When asked about having a girlfriend Michael replied with,"Away from the Olympics I"'e got a pretty quiet life. It's kinda boring. I haven't got a girlfriend and I can't do the kind of things all my friends are doing as college students. I swim, listen to hip hop and work on my car. But, in my opinion, that's still a pretty good life. I don’t know whether I’d want to trade it for anything." Probably more on Michael Phelps girlfriend in Michael Phelps biography.

The latest news on Michael Phelps girlfriend is a tad different. In an interview in Beijing, Michael stated, ""Part of my life is kept to myself. I'm able to relax and be with my friends. Those pretty much are the only people who really know the answer to that question." Referring to weather or not he has a girlfriend. He was also told that Carrie Underwood has a crush on him which he htought was pretty cool!

I'm not sure we will ever find that part of his life out. Does he or doesn't he? I guess this is great news for all the ladies that think Michael Phelps is incredibly sexy! I think he is not only very hot, but he is such a motivating person for people who are trying to go for their dreams. I also wonder if he has a bad boy edgy side to him?

Michael Phelps Tattoo

It would be safe to say that he may have others hidden as well! Maybe he will talk about them in his new Michael Phelps biography.
