Health Awareness: Collaborate with your healthcare professionals to understand any limitations or necessary adaptations, and take responsibility for aligning your workout strategy with your health needs.

Seek Clarification: If something is unclear or seems inconsistent with previous information, don’t hesitate to ask your coaches for clarification.

Here are some general workout concepts to consider

Improving your technique can yield greater benefits than sheer effort alone; focusing on stroke development will pay off significantly in your performance. However, it’s essential to challenge your body to stimulate growth—without hard work, strength gains are unlikely.

Incorporating "dryland" stretching and weightlifting into your routine is helpful to this process. Remember, progress comes from a balance of hard work and recovery. As you age, your body may require more recovery time to adapt and grow stronger.

Pay attention to your body to find the right balance between effort and recovery for optimal results.
