Hey Kyle, I graduated from Cal (also in Haas) in 2018 and went on to work in consulting for 3 years. Now I’m in tech. Great to see Haas students continue to kill it. This was a great video. Keep up the hard work! Go Bears!
Graduated from Cal 10 years ago and will visit 1-2x per year or so but watching videos like this one really make me miss the good old college life days. Cherish the time that you're there and Go Bears!
Always love hearing from Alumni! Go Bears! I will make sure to cherish it while I can. I started this RUclips almost as a time capsule for my senior year
Amazing! You got so much dedication! That’s a fun part of being a student-athlete! I can somehow relate to your schedule! Keep up the fantastic work sir! Props and respect!
Loved this video- I feel so validated. I am a mom of a swimmer who has aspirations of swimming in college. Pretty much everything I tell him appeared in this video. We watched this video together and it was AWESOME. Maybe he believes me now! LOL. Keep them coming. Liked and Subscribed!!! Go Bears!
Taking notes of the cool animations and edits, def gonna copy a few haha loved the video, super insightful!! Cool to see the insight scoop especially as a HAAS student-athlete. Can't wait for the next vid!
Kyle, this is cool stuff. It’s amazing how far things have come in 30 years when I was there swimming. Finally, I noticed a red blanket in the background at about the 15:00 minute mark. Please dispose appropriately and quickly. While so much as changed over the years, I know how Golden Bears feel about the color red has not. Go Bears!
As a fellow senior who tries to hit Spieker two to three times a week just for fun - so much respect bro. Hope you crushed your finals and have a good break!
Oh that’s too funny, Go Bears!! That’s some dedication right there, hope you have a training partner or something, I could never do it alone. Hope your finals went well too!!
I just can't believe that I was accepted to be a PhD visiting student at UC Berkeley with a fellowship from Brazilian governemnt. I'll arrive there next July :).
Good tip on planner! I'm not a student anymore, but I still use a planner. I find phone reminders don't work because you have to remember to look at your phone. Writing it down helps.
this is super cool and honestly your time management skills must be off the charts!! also huge props to you for doing business lmao im currently a senior in high school (going into stem) and ap macro is fully kicking my ass it makes no sense
Thank you! It is definitely something I pride myself on. It’s a lot to manage but like you saw, there are some down time moments. Macros is hard for sure!!
I loved the video!! I really enjoyed how you explained everything!! I am also a swimmer and this motivates me. Good luck in everything PS: you got this!🏊♀️
Wow your life looks very fun but hard. I am a swimmer too and i love how dedicated you are, also this is the reason i want to go to college in america!
Great video - our family debated whether you were eating enough during the day - mom said no but swimmer son said that’s what the Cal nutritionists are for; Chipotle should give you a partnership deal! We were so happy to see J Alexy our son’s former teammate in your video. Happy Holidays!
I’d always love a chipotle sponsorship but those are hard to come by. It depends, I think this day my food was a bit light, especially on the breakfast area. Jack Alexy is a great edition to our team and always shows up for study hours!
On seeing your vlog, i realized that your videos are fantastic. Plus, videos help me improve my English skills. I hope your video picture quality will get better. Wish you luck! From Japan!
Hopefully soon it will get better quality! Didn’t realize that this video would blow up and so many people would see it… now I gotta invest in some better cameras haha
Appreciate it!! Dave Durden is the man with the plan behind all the madness that goes on. He normally doesn’t get in front of the camera but maybe in the future
so cool to get this insight! Just found your channel, and you definitely earned my sub! is there any chance you'll make technique videos? I'm a backstroker, but my start could really use improvement. Any tips?
For sure! This could be something that I do in the future or potentially have videos of swimmers doing drills on how to get faster. Love the idea, will keep it in my back pocket
I heard that American swimmers had very little time out of the water (during the pandemic) because of the looser covid restrictions and also available private pools. Here in Canada the Olympic swimmers had about 3 months out of the water prior to Tokyo! It's amazing how well they competed! Seeing as you have an outdoor pool (very fortunate) did you have your training interrupted at all due to Covid?
Great question! We had lots of interruption in our training honestly. I was out for about 3 months (during 2020) but had mixed interruptions in 2021 for various reasons
Haha appreciate it! More to come this season! I didn’t get to swim last year due to my injury, so hoping to drop lots this year! (I did the 1:42 my sophomore year)
Wow. Are you taking a full course load? In Canada's, it's 5 per term. With practise, courses & studying is being tired an issue? I've have to take a nap! I love Chipotle, too.
Being tired is a constant in my life haha Yes the NCAA requires that we take a minimum of 13 units per semester which is around 4 classes. I have taken anywhere from 3-5 classes a semester.
Thank you for sharing this with us. Go Bears! How many units are you taking? I remember taking a couple final exams in Haas Pavilion, long ago. Good luck with finals! Chipotle bowl: chicken/sofritos, black beans, salsa, sour cream, queso and a bag of chips
hey kyle, I am a swimmer and my dream school has always been Cal, do have any suggestions for recruitment (for swimming) and what were your times like when you got recruited?
I will definitely be making a video on this in the coming future! Didn’t know we had so many Cal swimming fans, love to hear it! I would say just don’t be afraid to email as many coaches as possible. I’ll give some tips in my video about it!
I have been swimming since my freshman year of high school so around 7 years. Most people start swimming much earlier but I started quite late. I was around a pool for most of my life so I had the basic skills but didn't put them to the test until then.
I mean I feel like it is… if you don’t have too many other hard classes it shouldn’t be too hard but Macro on top of all my other classes was a bit much
I just wanted to ask-what is your screen time because mine is like 4 hours and i am worried that that is too much and that I won’t be able to succeed. I loved your video so much!!!❤️❤️❤️. Thank you for making my day better!
Screen time on my phone? I’m on it a bit too much as well, don’t worry. Don’t worry about succeeding, focus on the details that will drive you to get to your goals, part of it is relaxing and enjoying life! My screen time I think is like 5 hours! (Idk if that includes my computer or not though as I’m on that all the time!)
Don't think we didn't notice those Coor's Lites in the fridge... :) Garbage joke aside, this is an amazing video. As a former D2 swimmer, it really is like this often; but your level is something else is entirely. Well done, Kyle!
this man does more in one day than I do in a week... huge respect for you
Appreciate it haha I’m sure you do plenty as well!
@@KyleMillis are u lucky to not be hairy? Or do u have to shave? Is it to improve speed? Thx
@@eddieagui1554 yes, shaving improves speed
@@deckercoffey full body shave? Wow..im a hairy dude.that be a task 😂
Always wanted to know what a day in the life of a Cal student athlete was like. Now I know.
Glad you are now more informed haha
Go Bears!!
Maybe you should join us
Hey Kyle, I graduated from Cal (also in Haas) in 2018 and went on to work in consulting for 3 years. Now I’m in tech. Great to see Haas students continue to kill it. This was a great video. Keep up the hard work! Go Bears!
Wow definitely hoping to continue and have the type of success you’re having in the working world!
Pure respect...5-6k swim practice and have 8 am classes......really, huge respect...
Thanks, those Monday mornings are a bit tough
Graduated from Cal 10 years ago and will visit 1-2x per year or so but watching videos like this one really make me miss the good old college life days. Cherish the time that you're there and Go Bears!

Amazing! You got so much dedication! That’s a fun part of being a student-athlete! I can somehow relate to your schedule! Keep up the fantastic work sir! Props and respect!
Thanks so much for the props! It is a lot of dedication but it pays off! Go Bears!
Great vlog Kyle. Love this type of content so please keep it coming. Super interested in what Cal Student-Athletes get up to on a daily basis
Thanks for the support Karl! I’ll definitely keep this content coming, seems like people like it!
One of the most underrated RUclipsrs I’ve ever seen‼️
Really appreciate it! I'll make sure to have more content out for supporters like you soon
Loved this video- I feel so validated. I am a mom of a swimmer who has aspirations of swimming in college. Pretty much everything I tell him appeared in this video. We watched this video together and it was AWESOME. Maybe he believes me now! LOL. Keep them coming. Liked and Subscribed!!! Go Bears!
That’s awesome!! Love to hear it! More is definitely coming and make sure to keep up those aspiration!
Such a dream day in the life! I'm already a business student, being that AND a D1 athlete (which we don't "have" in brazil) must be very fulfilling!
It is super fulfilling when things go right, but as you can see, it can be quite busy at times.
@@KyleMillis Totally agree! It must be tricky to do not burnout!
Taking notes of the cool animations and edits, def gonna copy a few haha loved the video, super insightful!! Cool to see the insight scoop especially as a HAAS student-athlete. Can't wait for the next vid!
You better take notes of the air fried bagel man!
Thanks for the support man! Taking notes on yours as well, just trying to get better one vid at a time!
Yo! This man REALLY needs more subscribers, his videos are high quality and really enjoyable! Keep the grind going.🤙
Appreciate the support, more to come!!
I want to take care of you sometime if in Florida
You're an inspiration
Kyle, this is cool stuff. It’s amazing how far things have come in 30 years when I was there swimming.
Finally, I noticed a red blanket in the background at about the 15:00 minute mark. Please dispose appropriately and quickly. While so much as changed over the years, I know how Golden Bears feel about the color red has not.
Go Bears!
On my way to dispose of it right now! Thanks for the support, go bears!!
Thanks a lot for showing a college athletic student life.
How convenient finding this gem in my recommended after watching Cody Miller's VLOG XD XD. Cool stuff!
Hey it just works out!! Glad you enjoyed it! More coming soon, make sure to stay tuned 👀
As a fellow senior who tries to hit Spieker two to three times a week just for fun - so much respect bro. Hope you crushed your finals and have a good break!
Oh that’s too funny, Go Bears!! That’s some dedication right there, hope you have a training partner or something, I could never do it alone.
Hope your finals went well too!!
as a kid who swims and my sister graduating ucb a couple months ago, this inspires me to do more
That’s super cool! Glad I could inspire you to work hard, best of luck and remind yourself of your goals in hard times!
I just can't believe that I was accepted to be a PhD visiting student at UC Berkeley with a fellowship from Brazilian governemnt. I'll arrive there next July :).
I like how he gives a realistic look into the life of a student athlete, its nothing glamorous but it’s seems fun also
Just trying to give a realistic look into it. Never too glamorous as a swimmer haha
Good tip on planner! I'm not a student anymore, but I still use a planner. I find phone reminders don't work because you have to remember to look at your phone. Writing it down helps.
Writing it down > phone reminders for sure
Awesome video man. About to be a student athlete next year and this helps a lot of what to expect! Keep it up man
Love to hear it! Have fun! Where are you going to be attending?
definitely a bowl person. Oh you bring back memories of my swimming days. Loved your video.
Oh man, hope they are good memories!! That early alarm will always hit different
Glad you liked it! More content to come!
this is super cool and honestly your time management skills must be off the charts!! also huge props to you for doing business lmao im currently a senior in high school (going into stem) and ap macro is fully kicking my ass it makes no sense
Thank you! It is definitely something I pride myself on. It’s a lot to manage but like you saw, there are some down time moments.
Macros is hard for sure!!
this was surprisingly delightful. thank you for sharing. great work!
Glad you enjoyed it!! Go Bears!
AH I'm so happy I found your channel!!!!!! I'm a D3 swimmer and nursing student this is my new favorite channel
Thanks for the encouragement! Love hearing from fellow swimmers, glad I could provide some entertainment, more videos to come!
I loved the video!! I really enjoyed how you explained everything!!
I am also a swimmer and this motivates me. Good luck in everything
PS: you got this!🏊♀️
Thank you so much and glad I could give a little motivation! Go Bears, you got this too!!
@@KyleMillis enjoyed video 👍...u smooth by nature or have to deal with body shaving? Is that to improve speed?
I am a Berkeley high senior so this is cool to see :)
Super cool! Go Bears!
I am a swimmer and I love these videos you are making
Thanks so much for the support!! More coming soon!
lets goooo you're starting to blow up! 🔥
Slowly but surely!
Love the vid. Could you do a video on how you got into Cal? More specifically the swim team.
For sure! I will make a video for that soon, I’ve been getting a lot of requests for that!
Great content man, keep up the great work!
Thanks so much! Go Bears!!
i’m hoping to swim at a d1 school after high school so this was a super cool video to watch and kinda know what to expect :D
5:25 I thought you said "High School Business Student" but then realized it was Haas School - haha 😆 Enjoyed the video, man!
Hahah! Don't worry, definitely taking senior in college level classes
Very interesting. Good luck young man in swimming, and with your education. I graduated college in 07 and vlogs were not around.
Well in that case, I guess I’ll just have to keep making more!
Great video thanks for showing us what a student athlete at Cal does throughout their day!
Thanks! Hopefully you pursue college athletics too!
I'm here because you promoted yourself at the meet this weekend.
Haha that was my roommate
I was under the weather and unable to go to the meet
Thanks for coming and watching!
Love this please do more of these !!
More is on the way! Stay tuned!
I’m bowl with a side of tortilla! 🤣😂 also love the vid, very motivating ☺️
Glad you like it! Go Bears!
could you make a video on your classic team warm up and your activation warm up?
Yes I can do that, I show a lot of it in the videos
Great video! Was super interesting to see as a cal student what the athletes do
Always love hearing from fellow bears, thanks for the support!
Great video Kyle!! I swim in med school in Brasil and I loved your vlog, keep it up.
Thanks so much! Love the support from fellow swimmers!
This is crazy lol I also go to Cal, but didn’t realize how insane the athlete schedule is.
It is a lot!! Also going to Cal is a lot already too
This is a very nice video, you just got a new subscriber man
Thanks so much appreciate the support! More on the way
Great video bro,love ur energy
Thanks so much!!
I miss college lol enjoy every minute!! I love how you use that scooter lol you’re awesome
The scooter is key for getting around campus!
Also HAAS ranked top university for startup success, when will we be seeing yours???
That’s Tech to Cash baby!! Haha… maybe sometime in the future when you leave LinkedIn we can collaborate on some start up 😉
Wow your life looks very fun but hard. I am a swimmer too and i love how dedicated you are, also this is the reason i want to go to college in america!
NCAA swimming is definitely the most fun in swimming that you can possibly have, I think so at least!
Great video - our family debated whether you were eating enough during the day - mom said no but swimmer son said that’s what the Cal nutritionists are for; Chipotle should give you a partnership deal!
We were so happy to see J Alexy our son’s former teammate in your video. Happy Holidays!

Jack Alexy is a great edition to our team and always shows up for study hours!
amazing video!! I loved it!
Thanks so much!!
Hey Kyle! I’m a transfer student from Claremont McKenna College and i will be going to Berkeley this spring!! And I am also a swimmer!!! Go Bears:)
That’s awesome, looking forward to having you up in Berkeley! I have quite a few friends from my club swim team that went and swam at CMC!!
@@KyleMillis Nice!! Hope we can hang out!
On seeing your vlog, i realized that your videos are fantastic.
Plus, videos help me improve my English skills. I hope your video picture quality will get better. Wish you luck! From Japan!
Hopefully soon it will get better quality! Didn’t realize that this video would blow up and so many people would see it… now I gotta invest in some better cameras haha
Great stuff ! 🏊🏻♂️😊👍🏻
Glad you like it, thanks!
Wow a swim team with decent land training S&C programming, nice to see for once :)
It is definitely a very important part of our work. Have to gain muscle in the right way to pull it in the water!
more videos like this!!!! loved it!
More coming soon! Make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss it! Go Bears!
Keep grinding bro Praying and wishing the best. Only up from here ❤️🙏🏾✝️
Only up from here!! Go Bears!!
Starting the vid with that alarm induced my ptsd
Haha sorry about that, those early mornin swim practices never get easier!
SO COOL. I hope to one day swim in college so this a really cool look into it.
It’s definitely a grind but always very rewarding! I’ll be posting more videos like this so make sure to stick around and subscribe!
Super interesting! I’m from the UK and so learning about this is so different to anything I’ve ever seen :)
It is super different! We have some teammates from Europe and the UK and they noticed a big different
@@KyleMillis do speedos become 2nd nature to u? Ever had a slip? 😂😂😂😂
Love this Kyle!!
Thanks Katie!!
Respect the grind 🏊♂️🏊♂️
Appreciate it!! It sure is tough
Study hours so underrated
Study hours is a game changer! Glad u agree 🤫
This is really cool and informational! New subscriber here :)

Omg your chip order hahaha I get chicken lots of guac corn veggies lettuce black beans and brown rice!
Ohhh sounds yummy!
The best RUclips Chanel ever
Waiting to know alot about what coach Dave durden (my role model) do with his swimmers ❣️❣️
Appreciate it!! Dave Durden is the man with the plan behind all the madness that goes on. He normally doesn’t get in front of the camera but maybe in the future
love the vid. was just wondering what kind of scooter you have
I have a link to it down in the description if you’re interested in it! It’s an unagi scooter
Keep it up man!
Thanks so much!! Go Bears!!
Yo I love this video! By the way, where did you find your music/soundtracks?
I was kinda hoping for more insight into the actual pool work out. You know reps, progression/regressions with clock keeping an eye on you.
It's tough to do while I'm swimming, ya know, swimming and filming... but I can talk about it in another video for sure!
This pool...I mean those pools. I wished my Uni had a pool...
Two pools = double the swimming 🥵
This was fun!
Glad you enjoyed it!!
so cool to get this insight! Just found your channel, and you definitely earned my sub! is there any chance you'll make technique videos? I'm a backstroker, but my start could really use improvement. Any tips?
For sure! This could be something that I do in the future or potentially have videos of swimmers doing drills on how to get faster. Love the idea, will keep it in my back pocket
You remember me Plato as a great Philosopher and Sportsman, congrats!
Much appreciated 😉
Before even watching... it’s giving Type-A ❤️
Follow-up: I was right... also the real MVP was that camera
All the Best!!!

Haha appreciate it! More to come this season! I didn’t get to swim last year due to my injury, so hoping to drop lots this year! (I did the 1:42 my sophomore year)
Big up from France 🇫🇷
Thanks so much! Paris is the site of the next olympic games... who knows what the future will hold. Thanks for the support!
Wow. Are you taking a full course load? In Canada's, it's 5 per term. With practise, courses & studying is being tired an issue? I've have to take a nap! I love Chipotle, too.
Being tired is a constant in my life haha
Yes the NCAA requires that we take a minimum of 13 units per semester which is around 4 classes. I have taken anywhere from 3-5 classes a semester.
I liked the bit about the giraffe
Haha glad you enjoyed it!
Love this video! I get a bowl with chicken usually
Chipotle is the best!!
Thank you for sharing this with us. Go Bears! How many units are you taking? I remember taking a couple final exams in Haas Pavilion, long ago. Good luck with finals!
Chipotle bowl: chicken/sofritos, black beans, salsa, sour cream, queso and a bag of chips
Great order and Go Bears! This semester I am taking 14 units I believe. Lots of studying for finals this week!
Very cool. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it! Go Bears!!
Watching from Germany missin Chipotle🥺
And swimming our practice closed due to COVID
Oh man that’s a bummer! Hoping for the best for you and your health!
great video! keep it up
Thanks for the support!! Go Bears!

Have u tried the triswim body wash? It’s super effective to wash away the chlorine from the pool🌝
I don’t have tried I’m body wash but I have a pretty good one that does the job
Amazing video. Go Bears!!!!!!
Thank you!! Go Bears!!
Watching from Moscow, Russia. Nice content! 👍
Love to hear it!! Cheers
Excellent content. By the way how long have you been swimming for?
I have been swimming since my freshman year of high school so around 7 years. Most people start swimming much earlier but I started quite late. I was around a pool for most of my life so I had the basic skills but didn't put them to the test until then.
I would love to see how a meet looks like for you!
You read my mind! Currently editing a video right now from our recent meet. Make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss it!
can confirm kyle millis was the kid in fourth grade drinking smoothies for breakfast
This did indeed happen
Excellent video question tho is macroeconomics easy or hard because I gotta take that spring semester😂?
I mean I feel like it is… if you don’t have too many other hard classes it shouldn’t be too hard but Macro on top of all my other classes was a bit much
I just wanted to ask-what is your screen time because mine is like 4 hours and i am worried that that is too much and that I won’t be able to succeed. I loved your video so much!!!❤️❤️❤️. Thank you for making my day better!
Screen time on my phone? I’m on it a bit too much as well, don’t worry. Don’t worry about succeeding, focus on the details that will drive you to get to your goals, part of it is relaxing and enjoying life!
My screen time I think is like 5 hours! (Idk if that includes my computer or not though as I’m on that all the time!)
Def a chipotle bowl type of person
More food!!
Just subscribed. So glad NCAA changed the rules about student athletes making money. Go get that money!
Thanks for subscribing! Doing my best to get as much as I can while I can haha
Don't think we didn't notice those Coor's Lites in the fridge... :)
Garbage joke aside, this is an amazing video. As a former D2 swimmer, it really is like this often; but your level is something else is entirely. Well done, Kyle!
Oh trust me… I tried to blur them out. That’s my roommates fridge shelf haha!
Love hearing fellow swimmers love the channel! Go Bears!
