Meet Tips from Coach Mark
Food and Drink for Fast Swimming:
Bring a healthy lunch and plenty of wholesome snack foods (i.e. bananas, dates, figs, pears, raisins, bagels, milk, yogurt, breads, sandwiches, applesauce, crackers, sports/energy bars, like Power or Cliff Bars, rice cakes, muffins, etc.). Sometimes there are good foods provided at the meets, but never rely on the possibility. Such foods are usually the exception, not the rule, at the snack bar. Foods high in carbohydrates can delay the fatigue felt during all day competitions. Eat smaller quantities, frequently throughout the day to avoid ever having to swim on an overfull stomach. Save your trip to the snack bar for treats until after your competition is over for the day. Bring plenty of beverages (water, fruit juices, and sports drinks) in order to replenish fluid loss and avoid dehydration. Don't wait until you feel thirsty. By then, it is too late; you are already dehydrated. Your urine should be practically clear. Avoid drinking beverages that contain caffeine (soda and coffee), as they will increase water loss.
Warm-up and Warm-down
Always warm-up for all the events you'll be competing in that day, including turns, stroke drills, etc. Warm-up is our best way to ease your muscles into the demands you place on them when you race. By warming up, you not only learn the facility (every pool has different lighting, wall surfaces, flags, etc.), but prepare your body for racing and prevent injury. Always warm-down to prevent your muscles from getting sore and tight. Lactic acid will build up and keep your from performing at your best in your other races.
Stay positive before, during, and after your race.
Each swim presents a chance to gain knowledge.
The more you learn the faster you can swim!
GOOD LUCK – SWIM FAST!
