Swim Meet How To

When it comes to swim meets, there are some key things to remember:

1.) Your body will need lots of energy for your races - carbo load the night before (i.e., enjoy a big bowl of pasta)

2.) Visualize your race and then make your vision reality

3.) Pump yourself up with music!

4.) Remain hydrated - bring a water bottle to the meet

5.) Shivering wastes energy - bundle up between races!

6.) Warm up behind the block immediately before your race by jumping up and down and shaking out your muscles

7.) Practice good sportsmanship - congratulate your competitors

8.) Cheer for your teammates

9.) Bring a healthy snack - no junk food!

10.) Have fun!
