I Trained Like An Olympic Figure Skater

It's finally here! What did you think of this episode? Silas and Madeline knocked it out of the park with this edit!! We put so much love, time, and resources into these episodes, and I hope you enjoy it. :) P.S. For everyone asking - the songs during the music video and final competition are by my very talented friend Abigail Barlow! Be sure to check out her music on Spotify!

Can you please try training like a ballroom dancer or cheerleader

Iam really inspired by u pushing ur self... I have exam I need to push my self.... Never give up

I can't believe what you achieve in that short amount of time !!!

PD: the next time I would like you to train like an olimpic gymnast.

You should try wrestling

This was so emotional for me! This is the content that deserves recognition! I loved the emotional journey... it really taught me a lot about myself and made me reflect a lot about my life.

Such a great content

Lol the chole noels

Please try to try to train like a Olympic equestrian

You should try rhythmic gymnastics it’s a challenging sport

Suggested challenge: Spending one entire hour cuddling a litter of fluffy Persian kittens, without a safety net.

Good job I’m horrible at ice skating like if you are horrible

Can you do a rhythmic gymnastics video? :)

I do figure skating and it's HARD. It took me 2.5 years to land a flip jump.

you should try “training like an aerialist”

I am here for 4:52 ...thank me later 😉

You should try training like an equestrian. Riding is much more physically demanding then it looks.

Dude, your not old

michelle you have plenty of time to achieve everything! at this rate you'll be a legend! keep it up! (i honestly think by the end of this you're gonna break a world record!)

The amount of times I heard him say you have knees is too many

Wait imagine if she tried rhythmic gymnastics

now i wanna go back to figure skating :< i used to figure skate and stopped at fs3 to play hockey :

You aren’t old figure skating just has very strict age restrictions so many people start quite young. Me as a skater myself am always rushing forward when I’m not completely ready for the next level as competing in certain categories have different age limits. So don’t feel old or bad about yourself because you’re actually quite good at many things including figure skating especially going into it with no experience at all.

well atleast at her first try she can stand on that kind of shoes

please do I trained like a pro volleyball player!!

Do "I try to become a professional painter" or "I try to make an artistic masterpiece"

Now that I think about it figure skaters are so underrated this video helped me gain respect for them and the sport

She's amazing and I think we people should look at her even though we are nervous we should try to overcome our nervousness and we can do it

Try aerial silks with aerial physique in LA coz they are very proffesional and also a very good joooob, I couldnt believe my eyes seeing you skating like this, that was incredibly good considering your fear 👏👏👏.
Also you are not old at all! and know you are a badass bcoz if I tried even stepping on that ice I would have broken my neck or head or something for sure bcoz Im that clumsy and scared.

I was an artistic roller skater for years, doing much of what ice skaters do (but warmer, with heavier skates, and your butt doesn't get wet when you fall). I just want to say, Michelle, that I am so proud and happy for you, reaching for your dream, and working so incredibly hard. Nothing you did is easy, and it's *hard* for adults to be beginners at anything. But you achieved so much in an incredibly short period of time. You should be incredibly proud of yourself.

"Why can't I just be confident out the gate??" I felt that. In my core.
I have so much respect for you to be able to push through. One day I hope I can do the same. I'll keep trying.

Try buhurt! Full contact fighting in medieval armour!

TRULY INSPIRING

I cant even stand up by myself on ice

Anyone think she looks like natalies outlet?

this video gave me so much anxiety because i hate ice-skating
still such a great video tho

29:08 omgomg I can't watch na-uh

Wow!! Ur so humble!! Btw what’s ur skin routine? Ur skin is so good it doesn’t even have a bump and it looks so nice!! Tell me if ur wearing makeup. Stay confident u did amazing literally I’m here on the couch while ur doing this

she started skating all together 8 weeks ago, and manages to win something in a competition... michelle you're amazing !

15:10 nothing helped me more than theater when it's about being comfident. michelle, please try it!!!

You should try drumming

Alright but i cried at the end i was just very proud

I think when you put too much pressure on yourself your mind and paranoia takes over and the failure you think you will give them (the trainers) will take over your body. Just have fun and say Fuck it and do it! Who cares what others think. My way of thinking is no one will truly remember me and fuck them and everyone else!

You should do “I trained like an Olympian swimmer” that would be really interesting highly recommended

It's sad to say that I relate incredibly to the "Am I too old?" question, considering I'm fifteen haha. There are so many things, too many things to do. There's not enough time to do all of it. It's not possible to know at the age of 5 that when im 17 I'll want to do ballet or play violin or something but be too old. Of course, it's never too late to start something new, but starting something later on in life gets rid of a lot of opportunities. Say, starting figure skating at 25 gets rid of what could be 15 years or so of competing and improving and by the time you get to the skill level to compete in major competitions like PyeongChang or Grand Prix, there's not much time left before your prime is over, before your body starts losing stamina and not being able to do as many spins or jumps or stay out in the cold as long...

Michelle you are the only person that I know that would do all of your challenges with marine boot camp which I know is hard. You lasted so long. You are so strong and you can push your limits which I can't relate. Michelle you are a strong woman. ❤️

Crazy idea: try playing gokf. It is not only getting all the technical things right. But also a huuuge mental fight with yourself to stay in the right mindset... It really helped me growing up and owning my own flaws (in the game and rl) and mistakes i make can cost me. But not necessarily ruin tthe round or the fun in the game. Just not sure if itll make for an exciting challenge. Love your videos though. You've been an inspiration since your buzzfeed time to me. Love from a fan from the Netherlands

For the extremely short time you were training you should be very happy with your results. My daughter competes Junior ladies and has been skating for years. What I didn’t hear mentioned was most high level skaters use sports psychologists to help break through the fear and doubt. Thank you for making people aware of the difficultly of the sport. There are many who do not think figure skating is a sport. I hope your blisters are better!

U are sooo good and amazing I can’t even skate but u are now inspiring me to try and do my best

I trained like marching bands

Getting a pair of ice skates and breaking them is the same as getting new pointe shoes every 3 day

Awwww-SOME!!! ❤️

Ok so I know that she has done train like a ballet dancer but can you do a training like a competition dancer

Can you please try synchronized swimming?

You should try doing trampolining

Hi Can you please do “ I trained like a Olympic swimmer” I think that video would be a lot of fun :)

"I feel like I'm old. I feel like there's a time limit"
That's my biggest fear... Huh
Ps: I'm turning 18 next year....👀

You’re 27?! I thought u were 18

"Why can't I just be confident.." dang..same here 😭

I’ve said it before I will say it again, I think you should train to be a professional Mermaid. It would be so cool, and I know it would be a huge challenge, like so much more goes into it than you’d think.
