Gummybearz789 is there a good snack to have after practice somebody can tell me about?? cause my friend and i are always hungry afterwards, but don't know of anything healthy and good to eat.

the.musician.98 Hey everyone! I just joined... I am going to join a swim team this year. It will be my first time swimming competitively, but I swim laps at the pool all the time. Can anyone give me some info on ways I can get in good shape for the season? Thanks!

Nightless Is this club inactive? :( That sucks because it seems like a really great club...
7/21/2012 5:04:53 AM | Report
hoppswimmer10 Another really good thing to drink after a swim meet is chocolate milk. It has carbohydrates and protein that are both great to rebuild and reful mucels after exercise.

Swimmingroks I not only have that at swim meets, but after practice too! And I eat pasta the day before, peanut butter on the same day of the meet! I <3 to swim!
4/6/2012 5:52:08 PM | Report
alibaba Yeah, and peanut butter. Protein is essential for swimmers because it helps us build muscles in all the right places!!

cucu4cocopuffs2246 Well not saying i don't like chocolate milk cause i toooootally do but is normal milk as good or better or worse? <3 Leigh
12/5/2011 8:00:07 PM | Report
laurlaur72 Hey guys! New member but a long time swimmer.... Anyway I did a little research and chocolate milk is better because of it's calorie content which will give you back some energy you lost during a workout...

Matkins8 Umm i dont know I just know that my coaches told me to drink choc milk after practice :D
1/8/2012 8:27:25 AM | Report
nerdisthewurd26 @cucu4cocopuffs2246- Definetly watermelon or a granola bar. Try to avoid junk food after you swim because it will drain you more.

fireworks1071 @hoppswimmer10 -- I drink water during practice because I get horrible chlorine cough (ew wwwy!) and water is the only thing that helps me, but during volleyball/workouts I like Strawberry-Kiwi Propel Zero!! Delish!

9/27/2011 9:46:14 PM | Report
alibaba I've heard from various coaches, as it is the belief of our head coach, that you're supposed to drink water during and before practice, and those types of drinks after. This is to replenish all of the good stuff that you lose when you sweat.

itsynchrogiggles Energy drinks don't usually sit well with me, so I drink water! In my polar bottle!!:)

fireworks1071 @nerdisthewurd26 Lol yeah it is actually!! hoppswimmer10 - I hate ladders - 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, and back down!! Thats the worst!! And I'm not a fan of IM sets either :P I like the days when they let us do 10 min of straight swim!
9/13/2011 3:59:16 PM | Report
nerdisthewurd26 I just randomly thought of this! Okay in Nemo you know how the turtle keeps saying "just keep swimming, just keep swimming!"? is the title of this club from that?

nerdisthewurd26 @hoppsswimmer10- I'm not on a team for swimming because our town is really small, but I love freestyle!
9/7/2011 12:17:02 PM | Report
hoppswimmer10 And my least favorite is 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, times 100....and its all freestyle! I cant stand swimming that set and my coach makes us do it all the time!

hoppswimmer10 So no one has been posting for a while so heres a question for this week! What is your favorite set in practice? or what is you least favorite? Heres mine: favorite, anything that involves all of the strokes like 100s of each of them.

fireworks1071 hoppswimmer10 -- I use a cute colorful TRY suit, LOL that's why I bought it! I don't think that swimsuits make you go faster, unless it's like a string bikini vs. a one piece. I wear my cute suit for practice and my team one for meets.
8/22/2011 12:20:03 PM | Report
hoppswimmer10 I wanted to know what some other people think on speed suites? Do you like the lazer by speedo or blue seventy nero tx? Or any other brands? Do you think that they accualy make you go faster?
8/15/2011 10:24:59 AM | Report
krazy198 Speedo Fastskins are pretty popular... Same with Aquablades. The fact that they're super tight does make you go faster, but only really makes a difference if you are trying to drop hundreths of a second.
12/23/2011 10:49:45 PM | Report
keelinr01 a lot of people on my team where speedo fastskins. they r super expensive and suppoded 2 make u go faster but i really dont see a difference.

cucu4cocopuffs2246 idk if you'll listen, but i think you should try it either now or just over the summer. That way if you end up not liking it youll at least be able to say that you tried it out. And you never know, you might end up <3 it like me!!! haha
