Listen Later

In this episode of The Greg Bennett Show, I sit down with Ryan Murphy, one of the most decorated swimmers in history. A 3-time Olympian and 9-time Olympic medalist, Ryan has continually redefined excellence in the pool.


We dive into Ryan’s journey from his early dreams to dominating backstroke on the world stage. He reflects on his experiences at the Paris 2024 Olympics, his strategies for maintaining peak performance over three Olympic cycles, and the evolution of his training.

Ryan shares insights into his leadership role within Team USA, his thoughts on the state of swimming today, and his take on the importance of fair competition. Along the way, he answers listener questions about improving explosiveness, endurance, and technique, and even addresses the behind-the-scenes challenges and triumphs that come with being a world-class athlete.

This conversation is packed with inspiration and actionable advice for swimmers, athletes, and anyone striving to achieve greatness. Tune in for an inside look at what it takes to build an Olympic legacy!
