I train with an age group team. Our normal Saturday practices are in a pool around 85º and for 2 hours. The practices may not be hugely high in yardage but very high in intensity. I normally have chronic headaches and lately I've been getting migraines after these Sat practices. I don't know if it's the heat of the pool for the long time or the intensity. I talked to the coach today about getting out after 90 min as I find that helps. He mentioned upping my fluid and nutrition intake. What should I up and what else can I do to avoid the migraines? They are making for very boring weekends for my family as I lay on the couch in pain.
Another intense practice today. I tried different things like relaxing more while I swam and took 2 NSAIDs before swimming. And I felt good in the water! Nice descending set. I got out after about an hour and 35 min. Now is the test as the headaches usually come on after practice has been over for about an hour. Thanks all for the help. I'm going to beat this!
