Hey,
I haven't had a good swimming workout since December 2002 when my High School swim team fell through. Thats about 8 months without a good workout. I was pretty good in high school a few county appearances and almost a state. I swim all the strokes and I want to improve but I know that I will need a lot of work also. I want to start swimming again this year in college and maybe join the University swim team by next year. My question here is does anyone have any good tips for someone who has been out of swimming for awhile and to stay motivated while swimming? And my second question is does anyone have good swimming or dryland workouts or tips that I could use to make the college team by next year? You could email me at mfruth1625@hotmail.com...
Thanks,
Matt

You won't know until you try! I'd call or email the coach now and tell him you are interested in walking on, or practicing with the team. Swim as much as you can now until you get to school (I'm assuming that's this month, right?).
Whether you will make the team depends on the team and what Division the school is in. If you do not make the team this year, find a good Masters team, or a USS team that would let you practice with them.
Good luck!
