IF NOT NOW, WHEN?

 

“WIN”  WHAT’S IMPORTANT NOW

So maybe that streamline or UW dolphin kick aren’t important to you in training today.  Maybe today isn’t the day you want to really work hard.  You’ve made up your mind that today isn’t the day but someday it will be.

I only have one question for you which is, Where is someday on this calendar and where does it fall into the week?  I’ve checked all my calendar’s at the house at the pool and I can’t find one that has someday in it.

If your putting off something today waiting for someday it’s going to be a long…long wait.

Looking for a healthy snack for that appetite after a swimming session?  After that training session or meet you need to feed that monster with some healthy food.   Remember you need to fuel your body with "high octane food" if you want it to perform at high level.  Don't forget junk in = junk out.  

It is important for swimmers to refuel after every 90 minutes of swimming g activity.  It is also important to snack before during and after training sessions to keep energy levels steady and replenish your muscles.
