Swimming is the last thing that some of us want to think about, but now is an important time to start setting our goals for next season. Here is a look at what factors are important to look at during this goal setting process.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Make your goals realistic!<\/h3>\n<p>Championship season just ended, giving most swimmers the motivation to drop a ton of time next year. Yet, it is important\u00a0to keep these future goals within what is possible.<\/p>\n<p>This is one of the most crucial elements to making good goals for next season. Set your goals realistically so you can work out a plan on how to achieve\u00a0them. For example, if you\u2019re a 21.5 50 freestyler, don\u2019t set your goal for next season to go a 19.99 (unless you really think you can drop a second and a half).<\/p>\n<h3>2. Talk to your coach about what they think are realistic goals for you for next season.<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_236864\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-236864\" data-attachment-id=\"236864\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/check-out-photo-gallery-and-video-interviews-from-friday-night-at-cerave\/coach-unknown\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/coach-unknown.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2400,1600\" 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;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"coach-unknown\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;coach-unknown&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Kalina Di Marco&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/coach-unknown-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/coach-unknown-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-236864\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/coach-unknown-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"coach-unknown\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-236864\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Kalina Di Marco<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Your coach knows where your training is and they should know what is realistic for next year. Ask your coach what the big improvements are that you need to make for your race for next year. These improvements should be what you focus on for next year in order to achieve your goals.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Optimize your training to help accomplish these goals.<\/h3>\n<p>Talk with your coach\u00a0about how to optimize your training to make those changes.\u00a0Figure out what will work for you and what will not. Most of us have\u00a0enough\u00a0years of experience to understand what types of training work for us, and what types of training do not.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at your training for next year with your coach this early on in the process can help you get a head start on figuring out the best way to make\u00a0your races the best that they can be.<\/p>\n<p>If you take a look at these things and consciously try to work on implementing these points into your preparations for next season, you will most likely be more successful.
