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

wow! I realize you're a younger guy--and most younger guys have a lot of confidence. So what? No harm done. Anyway, as you age, you will humble...
If you haven't checked inot your community college--then do so. If it's worthwhile, give it a whirl...but also check in with your college too. After you see what's out there, and who you could train with, then you'll know what to do.
Congrats on being able to identify your natural talents--I don't think it's arrogant at all to know where your skills lie. After all, that's what will make you successful in business too.
Keep up the enthusiasm, and get yourself involved--it will be the very motivating, give you some friendly competition, keep you on track, provide commoradory, and give you an idea of how far you can go.
Now get out there and swim!
