Sunscreen is critical for outdoor training. If a team from Wisconsin goes all the way down to Puerto Rico, the athletes are not used to sun\u2019s UV rays being that strong. Apply thoroughly and apply well in advance. Sunscreen doesn\u2019t do much when it is thrown on five minutes before jumping into the pool. Along with being very harmful to your health, a sunburn can negatively affect training. It drains your energy stores and makes swimming very uncomfortable. There is a difference between tan and burnt.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"117028\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/10-things-to-pack-for-your-upcoming-swimming-training-trip\/sunscreen-being-applied-to-child\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/sunscreen-being-applied-to-child.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"450,300\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;(c) Jacobs Stock Photography&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Sunscreen Applied to Child\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Sunscreen Applied to Child&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/sunscreen-being-applied-to-child.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/sunscreen-being-applied-to-child.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-117028 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/sunscreen-being-applied-to-child.jpg\" alt=\"Sunscreen Applied to Child\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>#2 Aloe<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>For when #1 fails.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#3 Take it one day at a time, one practice at a time, one 100 at a time.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Training is going to extremely difficult. Knowing that going in, it is important to focus on the task at hand. Worrying about upcoming practices or workouts does nothing but waste mental energy and take away from the current set. Remember each kick set, stroke set, underwater set has a purpose. Coaches handpick everything specifically. As painful as the training can be, there is method to the madness.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_59044\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-59044\" data-attachment-id=\"59044\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/sub-maximum-heart-rate-training-is-the-workout-of-the-week\/swimming-bulldog-grand-slam-finals-3\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/michael-phelps-bulldog-grand-slam-training-e1405520966839.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3400,2132\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Kevin Liles&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS 5D Mark III&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Jul 12, 2014; Athens, GA, USA; Michael Phelps warms up prior to the Saturday finals of the Bulldog Grand Slam at Gabrielsen Natatorium.

That is one of the worst things a swimmer can do. Even when your stroke is falling apart and you feel like you\u2019re giving an elephant a piggy back ride, refocus. Not seeing the times you like? Focus on technique. Meaning, if everything feels bad except your turns, focus on your turns. Make them the best dang turns you&#8217;ve got. If absolutely nothing is going well, encourage your teammates. It does no good to mope around; it only brings others down and takes away from everyone\u2019s experience. Try your best to stay positive and see the silver lining. After all, you\u2019re in a nice, tropical place with some of your closest friends.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_118354\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-118354\" data-attachment-id=\"118354\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/7-ways-swimmers-celebrate-holidays\/training-trip-albright\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/training-trip-albright.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"815,863\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"training-trip-albright\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;training-trip-albright&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Albright Athletics&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/training-trip-albright-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/training-trip-albright.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-118354\" src=\"http:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/training-trip-albright-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"training-trip-albright\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-118354\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Albright Athletics<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><strong>#5 When in Rome<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>You\u2019re with your team in paradise, what\u2019s there to complain about?
