Kudos to David for teaching this, it worked wonders for me in the gym and in the water! Focusing on being present and putting as much intent as possible into the current rep makes a lot of difference. And it also helps to take away the disappointment if you don't reach the number of reps planned for that given set, be it in the gym or in the water, because you know you did your best during the execution of the reps you managed. It helps to enjoy the process more, not only be focused on external cues. Because we get "infinitely" reps in during swimming (x amount of turns, strokes, underwater kicks, etc.), being present in the moment will pay dividends in the long run.

Part 2 - Switzerland 200 Breaststroke - unfortunately this did not go anywhere close to what I had hoped, nor even as good as a week before in Ireland. Bad night sleep in hotel, very hot which probably had some affect on results but not happy about my performance. 100 Breaststroke - here too, not a great performance, added time but somehow managed to be reserve for the final. Unfortunately did not get the opportunity to swim again. 200 Fly - not at all happy with my performance here, gained almost 6 seconds to my last time. All I can say is exhaustion took over in the back hundred as the first half went ok, but perhaps went out a little too fast on the first half. Was really disappointed with my performance here. Also swam in relays, got DQ’d on 4x200 free, but managed a slight PB in the 4X100 medley in Breast, and on last day in 4X100 free relay also got a tiny PB on my 100 free by 0.57 seconds so while my individual races did not go well, I did perform quite well in my team events. Again general exhaustion coming into the end of season I think played a significant role, and also nerves caught me by surprise this year.

We're meeting for important camp updates today: - Summer Camp 1 (Aug 4-14): 9pm Zürich time - Summer Camp 2 (Aug 17-27): 9:30pm Zürich time The Link is in the Swimpros Calendar. Best if you can make it live. But the recordings will be provided. There is no Academy training tonight. And congrats to all the fast swims. Saw some results and I'm proud of you!! 😎 Please share with the community. Good and bad. Pretty and ugly doesn't matter. See ya tonight!

Just wanted to put it out there for @David Karasek and @Yul Münger that it’s official that after the swimming camp in Tene, I’ll be moving to a new club. This club is basically very close to my previous club, as we share the same pool and used to collab in some competitions together, including trainings. Why I made this decision is because I haven’t been very included with my teammates, many don’t even come anymore and there are more unserious than serious, it’s more like me, my friend, and some other guy who’s actually taking swimming seriously… so I wanted to grow the circle a bit more. I know some girls and boys from the club I’m going to move in (It’s called Ármann) and I really like how everybody motivates everybody. I’ll finally (I hope) have a good circle of competitive swimmers who want more in swimming. Not only that, their trainings are very good, I really like them. I sometimes had the chance to swim in their trainings as our coach was coming late or some emergency came up, and that the other club coach took us in. It’s similar to what we did in the last camp, and it’s great because it means that I’ll keep doing what I was doing in camp in Iceland, because to be honest with you, my coach would have had some other kinds of trainings, way off from what I did in camp last year. I’m going to have to tell my coach about the decision and I am hoping that he’ll approve (and I don’t think that would be a problem because he had done the same thing at this age, so). Most nervous is about how im going to tell my friend, Emily, because she’s going to be the only serious girl there and she’ll be alone without me to push her. I have asked her many times about changing clubs, but she’s certain that she will never change (we’ll see 🤷‍♀️). It’s not like she alone ALONE, like there are other girls there too but they don’t take swimming easily, so I’ll have to call her and tell her the decision, because I’d tell her in person but I’m not in Iceland right now. I hope she understands…
