Another season is upon us and you need to be better than you
were last year, better than your competition! “What can you do differently?”
you may ask? Here are some tips to help you train for the upcoming season!- In order to achieve your goals, you need to make
them! It’s important to create both long term and short term goals. You can do
this by thinking of where you want to be by the end of the season, and create ‘short-term’
goals or milestones along the way. This will allow you to reach small goals
which will motivate you to keep pushing!
- Now that you have created your goals, share them
with your coach, friends and family. These individuals want to see you succeed and
will help you do so. If you start drifting away from your goals, these people
will reel you back in. Plus by saying them out loud and letting them be known,
you are more likely to reach them!
- Surround yourself with people that have common
interests. Be sure that they have the same goals and have positive attitudes.
We often change our mentality based off those we surround ourselves with. If
someone is skipping workouts, or always having a negative mindset this can drag
you down.
- If you struggle with one area of your swimming, focus on improving it this season. If you don’t think you have somewhere to improve, think of the one thing you avoid training. Even if you don’t feel that you have a weakness, there is always something to improve on – nobody is perfect!
