Hi everyone I am writing this post because recently my pool has been closed because of something wrong with the lighting and a gala was cancelled on Sunday sadly because of it. Thankfully we got to train yesterday at a different pool but our pool might not open till next week and they arent running any sessions this week and thats not good coming up to Counties. My dad said we could go training at a pool near us but I wont be able to do the amount of hours I normally do so does anyone have any drills I could do at home that will help when I get back into the pool.

At my last gala I didn't do well on my 100 fly but tomorrow I have to do it again at another gala. Last time my legs were shaking before my race and I didn't feel ready. My arms felt tight during the race even tho I did land warm up. Does any one have tips of how to be ready before Yr race.

Hi my names Aoife and I'm 12 years old. I had a gala last weekend and I'm really happy with my performance. I got a pb on my 50 breaststroke which I was shocked about cus it's my worst stroke. I dropped 4 seconds in 1 month over 2 galas ! I also got pbs on 3 other races , 100 fly , 200 I'm , 100 back. I've got some more big galas coming up this month and with David's course I'm feeling confident and ready to get some more pbs. I have a few friends in my club who struggle with races anxiety so I shared mind gym with them. I feel alot more confident with no nerves when I go up for my races. I also got 4 golds, 2 silvers and 1 bronze.

***UPDATE: This only concerns members at Level 1 - Lurker*** I’d absolutely HATE to remove you from the MindGym FREE group. You’re here because you deserve access to a proven way to overcome pre-race anxiety—a way that’s helped swimmers from Olympic champions to age-groupers. But let’s be real about why you’re here… - School hasn’t taught it. - Swim coaches can’t focus on it with their packed schedules and big groups - And as parents, you want to help, but sometimes the best intentions add to the pressure. Pre-race anxiety isn’t about swimming “tougher.” It’s about mastering the mind. Science backs what we’re teaching here, and I’ve seen it work 100's of times over. So, the question isn’t if the MindGym works. The question is: 🚨 Are you willing to do the work? Is the pain of watching yourself underperform when it matters most greater than the discomfort of making a change? Starting in November, we’re clearing out members who aren’t engaging. I don’t want the biggest group—I want the most successful, happy, and committed swimmers and parents. If you’re ready to make MindGym your game-changer, here are 6 ideas: 1. Check your DMs and text me back 2. Introduce yourself in the START HERE post 3. Grab the 30-Day Improvement Plan 4. Register for the next Live Training: "The Ultimate Pre-Race Checklist for Nationals" 5. Comment on posts to support and connect with other members 6. Use the tools in the Classroom and share what’s working (or what isn’t) Don’t make me remove you from the community. Get active, and I promise you'll even surprise yourself with the results that come from consistent action. PS: If you get to Level 5 - National Swimmer like @Luiza Koziol, you get a free 1-1 coaching session with me.
