The reason Michael Phelps actually became a swimmer because his older sisters Hilary and Whitney were swimming all the time and so naturally Phelps followed the family tradition and it turned out he was better than either of his older sisters. It was not because he had a perfect body alignment because 9/10 the most successful swimmers in the world are not built for swimming, but he succeeded in swimming because he had the most determination and probably the best coach in the world Bob Bowman.
