Chase Kalisz speaks about his performance, coach Bowman, and more
Chase Kalisz, a two-time gold medalist at the World Aquatics Championships, has been looking to improve every day. He has won two Olympic medals, one silver in Rio and a gold in Tokyo.
In the recently concluded Pro Swim Series 2023, Chase Kalisz won the 200-meter Butterfly and finished second in the men’s 200-meter backstroke.
Talking about his struggles with backstrokes, he said,
When asked about how it was training with Bob Bowman, Kalisz said that he was his age group coach. He helped Kalisz get a great aerobic base.
Later on, Chase Kalisz was asked if he was putting in the same amount of work that he put in his last quad, and he said,
He also said that he was not doing the same work last quad and now they have got a great plan moving forward;
Chase is quite likely to join Team USA at the Paris Olympics, but he must first make it through the qualifying rounds for the main competition. He is quite eligible to qualify for the 200-meter as he has already clocked 1:15.52, which is comparatively much better than the eligibility criteria. Also in the 400-meter IM, Kalisz clocked 4:10.09 to qualify for the Paris Olympics.
In what may be his final Olympics, Chase Kalisz will be hoping to win gold in the 200-meter and 400-meter individual medleys in Paris in 2024.
