Hey,
I am a junior in High School. I played football all my life 2 star recruit and nationally ranked track runner. I just can't mentally handle the sports as they are so much on my knees. I do not want to play them again senior year. I was with my friend who is a UGA commit for swimming and we were swimming at our local gym. He said I was naturally really good at it and should try it and I really enjoyed it. I grew up surfing and swimming in California. I know want to attempt the impossible. Going from non-competitive swimmer to college swimmer in 1 year and do this prior to the High School swim season. I know I am going to need to get stronger in my chest and arms, perfect my form, and get into swimming shape. I know I am going to need to lift, swim, swim, swim and swim. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.
Swim Atlanta is a huge club, probably one of the biggest in the nation. I'd go do a trial there. And read up on Ed Moses, who I think started at 17 and won an Olympic gold at 20.
Oh yeah.....and GO JACKETS!
