What do YOU need to do to have a major swimming breakthrough?"
I started this thread over in the work outs section which I think doesn't get as much traffic as the general discussion board
so here's the link
forums.usms.org/showthread.php
but my point is,
No matter what, the time between right now and your focus meet is going to pass, and the things you do to prepare for your meet is of the UTMOST importance.
the choices you make
the chances you take
swim hard in practice
rehearse racing
I want to read your story about your breakthrough.
Decide it starts today
that this season will be your best season EVER
What do you need to do to make this true?
Ande
Always.
At LC Nationals in Mission Viejo, a teammate (whom I don't like because of this) said to me, "Oh, you'll never swim your best times again. It's just part of getting old and having kids." Needless to say that totally p***ed me off.
I'm not there yet, but I'm getting closer. As of Pacific Champs I need to:
-drop 4 sec in the 100 back
-8 in the 200 back
-7 in the 100 ***
-too many in the 200 ***! (12) I had a crappy race at PacChamps!
-9 in the 200 IM
-14 in the 400 IM
Wow, writing that makes it seem unattainable, but I am determined to do it. I have no doubt that when the rest of this weight comes off, I will do it :)
:blah: Yea, yea shut up and swim :thhbbb: ;)
