My first Masters meet is coming up on March 27&28 and I don't have a clue about:
1. Should I swim the day before or just rest?
2. What (and when) should I eat before my first race?
3. What (and when) should I swim to warm-up before my first race (200 breaststroke)?
4. What about cooldown then warming up again before my next race (medley relay)?
5. Any other recommendations, besides stretching and HAVING FUN? :D
THANKS!
Bananas, Nutrela, bagels, protein powder prior to meet. Then 20 minutes right before the first event I get bad anxiety attacks so I lay down and do deep breathing until the heart feels normal. All subsequent events the problem is gone and I'm relaxed
