I suddenly said, 'I'm sick of losing'. After that, I trained hard and I never lost there again.
After my swims this weekend I think coach realized, you know what, you have to have a good one getting out of this meet. So I put the suit on and had a decent swim.
The key to the Lochte haircut is being fresh and looking up-to-date.
That's the quickest way to my heart: Laughter.
I try not to read the negative comments, and when I do, I let it roll off my back. I remind myself that there will always be haters as long as you are in the public eye.
The big picture is the Trials and Olympics. I just have to keep focused for that, keep moving forward.
I enjoy racing so much. Ever since I was 8 or 9, I trained every stroke, because it was the only way I could race a lot.
The swimming community is really small, but why can't it be as big as the NBA or the NFL?
The fact that people actually want my autograph is crazy.
My suit blew up into a parachute. All this water rushed in, there's air, water in there. I was freaking out.
With swimming, I burn a lot of calories. I'm able to eat pretty much anything and it won't affect me. But I don't.
For those who are understood no need to explain
In life, like, I'm always living life to the fullest to always have fun.
It's not like I'm looking for a blonde or a brunette, light-skinned or dark-skinned. I feel like I give any girl a fighting chance.
