🚫📱 The No-Nag Method .. Day 1 Recording (swimmers AND parents)
I'll be straight with you: this is an experiment, but it's easy to measure and I believe in it. So we do it together .. swimmers, parents, and me as your guide. No nagging. You're the boss. Here's why my heart burns for this one. The scroll quietly pulls a little life out of you every day. It gives us something .. distraction, boredom relief, a feeling of belonging .. otherwise we wouldn't do it. Nothing wrong with you. But it does not give you real connection, it does not give you love, and the problems don't go away. Being present does. Swimmers, you can win at this because you have a WHY: you love swimming, you want to level up, you're go-getters who respond to a challenge. And this is a challenge. Parents, you being here is the edge .. at this age advice lands better from the side than from mum or dad, so I carry the message for you. Together. Do all 3 in the comments 👇 1️⃣ Baseline screenshot. Your weekly screen time. - 📱 iPhone: Settings → Screen Time → See All Activity → switch to Week → screenshot. - 🤖 Android: Settings → Digital Wellbeing → tap the bar chart → Week → screenshot. 2️⃣ WHY you want less screen time. Swimmers your reason, parents yours. Be 100% honest. 3️⃣ WHAT it actually gives you. Distraction? Boredom? Feeling connected or informed? No wrong answer .. if you're not sure, journal on it for 7 minutes. I only coach the people who take step 1, so post your baseline. In a couple of days we move to the next step, gamify it, and adjust as we learn. Two easy wins today: no phones at dinner (parents lead), and phone away 30 min before bed. This is really about not wasting the potential you've clearly got!! Let the games begin .. first screenshot this Sunday, me included. 💪

♣️ Who's thinking about changing clubs for next year??
I'm curious please vote below. Depending on the votes, Yul and I might be running a special training for swimmers and parents who want to switch to another club. We have been part of many successful transitions and we know what to do (and what to avoid!!) to find a great team & coach. Vote HERE 👇

LAST SEASON COMPETITION.
Sorry for the late post, I know that some of you wanted to know how it went (as mentioned in my last one). I had PB's only for the 50m's swims, which were the freestyle and butterfly (you all know by now that I only swim free or fly). I was proud of my 50m's, especially the 50 fly, where I dropped more than a second from my previous time, which I also got a silver medal. To be honest with all of you, this competition I did feel extremely tired. The whole week before the competition, I felt tired every 50m I did, even when it was an easy swim, freestyle. I just felt out of breath immediately! I did notice even at the warm-up that I was a little tired than usual, but I just went by it positively and forgot about it during the races. 100m fly went okay, I mean, the first 50m is how I wanted it to be, but the last 50 was hard. As I said, the week was not the easiest. Only positive that I did get to hook a silver so. Then my last races finally came, which were basically right after each other. They were the 100m free and 200m fly. The 100m free was smooth, same as for the fly, the first 50 was good, but the last was very tiring. I just held my time, which I know that I can improve because of how it was just the tiredness from the last competition and from the whole week anyway. Then the 200m fly, which was utterly exhausting, while the 100's only had one more turn before finishing, the 200's have three, which from the state that I was in after the 50's, how would I survive this one haha. Okay, so, first 50, very good, second, well, could be better, third, HARD, fourth, EVEN HARDER. My strokes were dying in the last 100, so was my kick obviously. I got a silver, and I was just 2 seconds away from my PB, so also another which I know I can do better on without the random tiredness. Now I can finally relax and do something else in Romania before the Tenerife camp. Looking forward to it! 🙂‍↕️💗
