I'm a practicing Muslim and Ramadan is coming up very soon so that means I'm gonna be fasting. And due to time constraints I can only swim at one very tiny pool that must be less than 12.5 meters. The problem is that I've worked hard on getting my times low and the championship meet I want to compete at lies the day after Ramadan ends. So I can compete, but I don't just want to compete I want to win. I'm a freestyle sprinter and I focus on the 50 free and 100 free with a little bit of phases on breastroke. The question is can I do it? In such a tiny little pool, I'll probably train using USRPT but I'm not even sure if the pool is 12.5 meters.. What can I do? I just need advice, I've worked my butt off just to get to this moment and my religion is in the way

40-45 pounds? Wow, now that sounds extreme. I've never heard of anyone in swimming doing something like that. At first I used to be pretty fat then I lost a lot and got pretty lean and swam a season and since then I decided to take advantage of the novice effect when it comes to wright training and put on a lot of mass very quickly I've put on 42 pounds as of this morning and I plan on young another 20 before I cut. This is mostly for astethic pleasure rather than swimming performance.also gained quite a hot of strength in the weight room.
