Alex Imbernón gives us the initial push to face the pre -season of swimming to the maximum.
How about summer? Have you had a good time? As a good friend of Alicante says, "the good ends soon." As I know that many of you are already ful
Don't tell me I didn't let you know before starting :) I will be clear and direct with you, as I have always been, but a little more if possible. Are
3 tips which are
indisputable To start your preseason And that they do not require how you will realize at the end, that you are great athletes to get it.
1. Start motivated the season!
Are you one of those who start the preseason more motivated than ever? Or are you one of those who start with laziness, without wanting to throw yourself into the water again and think again that swimming is the most boring sport of the three that the triathlon has?
If you are the first, congratulations J, you are in my team !! If you are the second, bye bye friend. It is shown that if you do not disconnect well from the sports routine, the season will go wrong. Because? You don't have to be sports coach to know that
The mind is everything In this life, and In sport, motivation is a fundamental aspect for day to day. Who wants to go to the pool in winter with how cold the water is? Better on the couch, right? Well, for that we have a motivation for which we fight day by day, week by week.
I recommend that you do nothing at your rest, that you fattens, that you have fun with your family and/or friends and that you do nothing that has to do with swimming or triathlon, this is my super tricansejito of the day as the YouTube geex Alex Gibaja would say.
2. Look at a goal.
This is how the Estopa music group begins one of their best known songs, "More Destrangis." Tell me that you have not started the season and you do not know what goals you have for this year ...
If you still don't have it, what are you waiting for to think about your corner of thinking and setting a goal for this year?
My advice is that you meet your coach, your friends or your club to set 3 goals:
- Objective of the season: the main one, the one who is going to Machacarte trying to get it even if a hurricane puts on your way.
- Secondary objectives: They are less important careers that will help you achieve your main objective. You will train to get a good result but it will not be the same as the previous one. Normally you marked 2 races and together with the main objective the Calavera Trio of Objectives of the season.
3. Rest and recover well
Once you have rested, the body gets used to the good and when you start back to the workload, we always resent somewhere in our body. That is why it is very important
Make a moderate workload and progressive In training together with a very important part of an athlete, rest.
Do not hurry to start top from day one, calm, you will have months when you are close to your goal. Worry just about doing training, taking the dynamics of training and occasionally
Take a visit to your physio to which you tell all your sorrows and sports joys;).
CONCLUSION
For me, as a coach, the preseason of swimming is one of the key months to hook and motivate the athlete to achieve their main objective. For this, it is very important that you come disconnected from the training routine, which comes wanting to train, to be seen in your face that you want to eat the world. If not, you have to talk to him or her to reactivate her motivation from another place.
The coaches are mainly sports coaching,
Motivators that make you go day by day to suffer like a lion (who hits the word I am thinking). It depends on us all these steps to follow and if your coach does not make you think, then think about looking for another coach to do it.
You can't train without setting a goal and of course Without resting During the preseason because if not, I already tell you that you do not even arrive in shape.
I hope you have learned a little more and use these 3 tips during this month or the next one. You already know that any suggestion or doubt can send me an email to
