Ok, so here it is my first meets since high school (long ago) & I am perplexed.
I always take a shower before practice/getting into the water. I don't know how this will work when I have a meet. Am I supposed to be dry when going off the blocks? Does it really matter? I have a feeling that the water will be cold & a shock when I dive in. I know I should be worrying about other things but this will do for now. How much of a warm-up do people do at meets before their events?
Warm up with long stretched swim of each stroke -1000 yds max- (I am only swimming 2000-4500 per workout now)- do some quick sprints, starts and turns.
Before each race I'll jump in for 50-150 yds and do a few laps after the race.
