Diving is a sport that many people watch and assume practice is all about jumping off a board and seeing how many flips you can do, or bouncing up and down for a little before heading home. But, diving practices are a lot more structured than that.<\/p>\n<p>Most practices start with stretching, and some dryland as a warm up. It is common for divers to have sets of tuck-ups, pike-ups, squats, lunges, leg-lifts, calf-raises, and other core or lower body exercises as part of warm up. This part of practice might also include work on a dry board, trampoline, or in belts, depending on access to that equipment.<\/p>\n<p>Divers, like gymnasts, need to be strong <em>and<\/em> flexible, powerful <em>and<\/em> graceful, something warm up reflects.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_333451\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-333451\" data-attachment-id=\"333451\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/diving-practice-really-like\/dryland1-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Dryland1.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"960,640\" 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=\"Diving Belts\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Erin Keaveny&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Dryland1-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Dryland1.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-333451 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Dryland1-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-333451\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Erin Keaveny<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Once it is time to get in the water, most practices start with some line-ups or drills. This can include jumps, standing dives, double-bouncing drills, and other basic movements. Starting practice in the water like this is a good way to focus on basics, and prepare for the rest of practice. It can also be helpful for adjusting to the boards if the practice takes place in an unfamiliar pool.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_333452\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-333452\" data-attachment-id=\"333452\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/diving-practice-really-like\/warm-up-1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/warm-up-1.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"960,640\" 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=\"Diving Line Up\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Erin Keaveny&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/warm-up-1-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/warm-up-1.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-333452 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/warm-up-1-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-333452\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Erin Keaveny<\/p><\/div>\n<p>After that, it is time to really start. The main part of practice can be different based off of when it takes place during the competition season. In an off season practice, a coach might decide to dedicate a good portion of it to drills, or learning one new dive. During competition season, divers are more likely to practice each of the dives in their meet list multiple times.<\/p>\n<p>Another part of a full training regimen for a divers, outside of the pool, is strength and conditioning. While many divers don&#8217;t add lifting to their practice schedule until college, strength training can make a hug difference for a diver.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_133628\" style=\"width: 622px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-133628\" data-attachment-id=\"133628\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/the-many-seasons-of-katie-hoff\/katie-hoff-lifting\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/katie-hoff-lifting.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"612,612\" 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=\"katie-hoff-lifting\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;12\/17\/17&lt;br \/&gt;\nkatie-hoff-lifting&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Todd Anderson&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/katie-hoff-lifting-612x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/katie-hoff-lifting.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-133628 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/katie-hoff-lifting.jpg\" alt=\"katie-hoff-lifting\" width=\"612\" height=\"612\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/katie-hoff-lifting.jpg 612w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/katie-hoff-lifting-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/katie-hoff-lifting-533x533.jpg 533w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/katie-hoff-lifting-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-133628\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Todd Anderson<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Working on core strength can increase dive control, and help to keep entries clean and consistent.
