In her opinion, it was a good meet; she was happy with how her strokes felt and the power that she could feel in them. After coming off the national meet, she spent time working on her starts and underwaters, which she felt were improved at this meet \u2014 and shared in an interview with <em>Swimming World\u00a0<\/em>how she used the 50 fly to work on how she wants to take out the 100 fly and the breathing pattern of every four strokes that she used.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;To be the best in USA Swimming, you have to want it from your core,&#8221; says Vollmer, as she talked about how her normal has changed since becoming a mom of two boys. Just like other working moms, Vollmer must juggle schedules: sometimes that means bringing her own cheering squad to practice. Her determination to find a way \u2014 and if there is no way, to make a way\u00a0\u2014 is a beautiful example that there is no limitation except that which you put on yourself.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s easy to be motivated when you feel good. It is when you feel exhausted and the work feels hard that you have to remember what goal is pushing you,&#8221; Vollmer says as she shares about her training and how things have changed since becoming a mom of two boys.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>She reflects on how she does not have the time to make her training just about the yards. But when she is training, she has to bring more intensity, more focus and improved technique.<\/p>\n<p>What keeps Vollmer coming back?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;It changes all the time. I still feel like I&#8217;m figuring out stuff. How can I walk away feeling like I felt a faster butterfly, and I think I can do a faster butterfly? Also, I have to be able to have the time and do the work. So as long as I am enjoying racing and it&#8217;s working for my family.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Vollmer is a trailblazer and proud to be an example for women in whatever they are pursuing.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;If you want something, don&#8217;t feel like other people&#8217;s expectations or the way that it was done before is a limitation. We can create how we want it to look. And it might look different than anyone has done it before, but if you&#8217;re loving it and you&#8217;re happy in your life, that&#8217;s the motivation you need to bring to work out. We can make it look how we want it to look.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"attachment_346760\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-346760\" data-attachment-id=\"346760\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/dana-vollmer-training-for-2020-looks-different-as-a-mom\/dana-vollmer-knoxville\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dana-vollmer-knoxville-e1547260187774.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1152\" 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=\"dana-vollmer-knoxville\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;dana-vollmer-knoxville&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Melissa Wolf&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dana-vollmer-knoxville-700x500.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dana-vollmer-knoxville-1024x786.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-346760\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dana-vollmer-knoxville-700x500.jpg\" alt=\"dana-vollmer-knoxville\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-346760\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Melissa Wolf<\/p><\/div>\n<p>USA Swimming has not seen the end of Vollmer.
