As a practicing Muslim, in the month of Ramadaan, I'm required to fast. Meaning no food or water from dawn to sundown. I'm wondering if because of this I might as well abandon all hope of doing anything in the career of Swimming. I do plan on doing CrossFit to stay in shape, but nothing can replace quality swimming.
So do I really have no chance of making it anywhere, such as the Olympic because of this? Or is there still some bleak of hope?
It depends on what you define as good times.
For most swimmers, a proper taper for a big meet includes almost daily water time in the weeks before the meet. Your coach is the best judge of how you should train to prepare for a big meet and it may take a couple of seasons of work with your coach to find what works best for you.
