There's a meet on March 11 that I REALLY want to go to on Bainbridge Island, WA. The problem is, that's about 4 weeks away and I cant' swim for about 2 or 3 because I just got a tattoo (:D). Is it possible to train on land for those 3 weeks I can't swim, swim the week before the meet and still do ok at the meet and not feel like I"ve been out of the water for a month? Or is it a better idea to just wait for the next one? Thanx!!
You really can't swim for that long due to a tattoo? I got one in college during swimmming season, so I know I didn't stay out of the water for even a day. Maybe I got lucky.
I guess my answer to your question would be no. Being out of the water will seriously affect you. You can try to replace it with some other type of training, but it won't be the same. Sorry, but that's my opinion!
