In 2015, Ryan Lochte's groundbreaking underwater technique led to a rule change in swimming. This video recounts how Lochte, a dominant force alongside Michael Phelps, revolutionized the sport. Phelps began shattering 200 IM world records in 2003, with Lochte finally surpassing him in 2009 during the supersuit era. Despite supersuits being banned, Lochte broke the record again in 2011 with an innovative backstroke dolphin kick during the freestyle leg of the IM, a move later prohibited by FINA. This rule change caused confusion and disqualifications, highlighting Lochte's impact. Even today, his record remains unbroken, showcasing his enduring legacy in swimming. Join us as we explore Lochte's influence and the anticipation for future record-breakers. Swim fast!
