I am so sad for my sweet 10yr old boy right now. He started to get sick the last day of his meet last weekend and due to this only improved 3 of his 8 races. He is now FULL BLOWN sick and will likely miss the entire meet this weekend which he is SUPER upset about because he was going to try to do a 400IM in a meet for the 1st time, and due to his young age it may not come up as an opportunity for the rest of the season. My poor guy! How do you guys help soften the blow of missed opportunities that they have no control over?!?!?!

I’m following David on insta and came across this what not to say video before a meet https://www.instagram.com/reel/DA5169VIFLt/?igsh=aG9rZ2ozdTMyeHQ= I wasn’t able to go to the live last week for the pre-meet checklist, but I’m wondering what’s better to say to your kids before a meet - other than I love you! We are definitely guilty of saying pretty much everything outlined in the video 🤪😞😩

My daughter has always trained hard leading up to any gala but today someone advised that she should be tapering as she is swimming a 1500m race on Saturday. I do not know much with regards to this so was looking for advice. Hope it’s ok to ask this question here. Thanks

I am a 50m breaststroke swimmer but I was just wondering how I could adapt my training to help improve my 100 and 200m breaststroke

Hello 👋🏻 for David and other members. I'm Aleksa 23yo swimmer. I'm planning to be a coach or a sports psychologist bcs so interested in human body and mind. I'm national record holder in 100/200m breastroke in Montenegro 🇲🇪 and I was a member of the national team. In the age of corona, I suddenly stopped with new records, both personal and national, I love swimming, but when I appear at the edge of the pool, I have anxiety, coldness, tiredness and it's even worse at competitions. I'm working on it through new routines but need some time. I hope u are doing well and fighting the demons🔥
