Has anyone gone into a big swim meet, a shave and taper meet without doing any meets leading up to it? Im curious as to how things turned out. I have not been at a meet since March. I was outta the water and recovering from shoulder issues all summer. I have been back at it since August and shoulders feel fine. I am thinking I should do a masters meet, there is a good one this Saturday. The shave and taper meet is a USS meet starting on Dec. 7th. There is the OSU vs. Mich game this Saturday. Whoever planned this meet on this day was not thinking and I know, it does not have the implications it could have. So, should I swim the meet or go into big meet with no meets? I have been doing things for time in practice and its not like I have forgotten how to swim certain events, like the 200 fly. Torn between swimming and the Bucks, Greg

  • With the scarcity of meets where I live, each meet is a shave and taper meet. I think I got to 4 meets total this year, beginning in May and the last one will be this weekend. I feel I did ok at each meet, probably got more benefit from the shave than from the week taper I did before the meet. Times improved after each meet, so that was encouraging. :banana:
