Not waking up at the normal 6am which most swimmers have been doing for years is a real challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the Dolphins normally being in bed before 10pm and awake early, they have embraced this new challenge and even Olympic gold medallist <strong>Cate Campbell<\/strong>, who was nicknamed \u2018The Bear\u2019 and ideally gets 10 hours sleep a night, has adjusted her sleeping well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI really rely on sleep and some people call me \u2018The Bear\u2019 for my hibernating,\u201d Campbell said. \u201cSleep quality and duration is very important and it is so good to do this preparation now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is about changing your mindset and getting the most out of this camp. With the strategies we are trialling I slept until 9am and some boys until 11 which is very impressive!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>World Champion sister <strong>Bronte<\/strong> <strong>Campbell<\/strong> is enjoying the comprehensive six-day \u2018experiment\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was interesting last night starting a training session when normally I am getting into bed,\u201d Bronte said. \u201cEveryone handled it really well. I got to bed about 130 which is not at all normal for us but everyone seems to have adjusted well and it has become a new normal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s just like adapting to jet lag for us and we have our fancy sleep watches on all the time collecting lots of data to see what we are doing right and what we are doing wrong and it is really a great experiment for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Australian Swim Team Head coach <strong>Jacco Verhaeren<\/strong> is very pleased with how the camp is going and how the athletes and support staff are embracing the simulations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a great opportunity to kick-off the season and to get a lot of things sorted from a medical point of view and nutrition,\u201d Verhaeren said. \u201cA great focus here is sleep and recovery strategies so we are prepared for Rio.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Head of Recovery at the Australian Institute of Sport <strong>Shona Halson<\/strong> and her team will analyse all of the data from the camp and continue to develop strategies that maximise sleep, recovery and performance without the need for medication.<\/p>\n<p>Australian Olympic Team Chef de Mission <strong>Kitty Chiller<\/strong> and AOC staff are also at the camp to ensure that learnings from the camp can be implemented for the Village and team logistics. It is a partnership that will ensure success for the swimmers and the entire 2016 Australian Olympic Team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a great initiative from Swimming Australia,\u201d Chiller said. \u201cI\u2019ve said from the start that Rio will be a very challenging environment for all sports and all countries. And the nations and sports that will be successful are the ones that deal with those challenges the best and turn them in to opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chiller, who has been working hard since London 2012 with all sports to ensure an improved culture and team spirit, said she was thrilled with what she is witnessing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s fantastic to see how the swim team are doing not only in the pool \u2013 as number one nation in Olympic events at Kazan. But also the great team spirit and culture that is being developed out of the pool as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On the 15-year anniversary of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games, where <strong>Grant Hackett<\/strong> won his first Olympic gold, the swimming legend couldn\u2019t be happier with the culture in what he hopes will be his fourth Olympic Team in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeing in Kazan (World Champs) for me just felt like being back on a team from yester years. The camaraderie, the way we performed, the results that we got and the attitude that the swimmers had towards their performances and one another.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a really positive team environment to be a part of and certainly we are doing everything we can to produce the performances next year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Press conference video footage (courtesy Swimming Australia)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZFX9HD_yiXU\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Camp facts:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>47 swimmers<\/p>\n<p>31 from the 2015 FINA World Championship team<\/p>\n<p>33 support staff and coaches<\/p>\n<p>All athletes wearing sleep\/activity watches for duration of camp<\/p>\n<p><strong>Monday\/Tuesday Schedule:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Breakfast from 10:30am<\/p>\n<p>Training from 1:00-3:00pm<\/p>\n<p>Lunch from 5:00-6:00pm<\/p>\n<p>Training from 10:00pm \u2013 12:00am<\/p>\n<p>Dinner from 11:30pm-1:00am<\/p>\n<p><strong>Competition:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Wednesday &#8211; racing from 10:00pm to 12:00am<\/p>\n<p>Thursday &#8211; racing from 1:00pm \u2013 3:00pm and 10:00pm to 12:00am<\/p>\n<p><i>The above article is a press release submitted to Swimming World.
