Portion pitfall Smarter solution
Eating out of a bag or package in front
of the TV
Separate out a single serving.
Keeping a candy dish or cookie jar
stocked
Store tempting items out of reach — or don't buy
them at all.
Finishing an oversized restaurant meal Ask for half to go, or share an entrée with a
companion.
Dishing up seconds without thinking Keep serving dishes off the table.
Getting overly hungry — and then
overeating
Have a sensible snack — such as a piece of fruit —
before you get too hungry.

Hydration: The FactsWater delivers nutrients throughout the body
Slower to Rehydrate than to Dehydrate
Athletes lose more water: Sweat, urine, respiration
Onset of thirst: 2% Dehydration
1% Dehydration hurts performance
Hydration: Monitor Fluid LossWeigh in before & after practice
Drink 3 cups of fluid per pound lost
Urine color
Vitamins may temporarily change urine color
Hydration: Monitor Fluid Loss
Well Hydrated
Good Job!
Need 1-2 cups of water,
Performance suffering
Severely dehydrated!
Poor Performance
Some vitamins may temporarily change urine color
Hydration: Additional NotesUse bottles with squirt tops – Easy access
between sets/intervals
Do Not Share water bottles!
Cool drinks good for hot environments, warm
drinks good for cold water swims
“Sport” Drinks
For activities lasting 90 minutes or more
Contain helpful sugars and electrolytes
“Energy” DrinksDrinks
Drinks-Ill EffectsCombine many different
stimulants
Short-term energy boost-
uses up carbs, hydration
Increased risk of stroke, heart
attack, cardiac arrhythmia, death
Attempt to boost your energy with trace amounts of
B vitamins, herbal extracts, and amino acids.
16-ounce can delivers as much as 280 calories of pure
sugar, which is about 80 calories more than you’d find
in a 16-ounce cup of Pepsi
What your body remembers most is the sugar
The Trouble With “Energy” Drinks

Danger of Dietary Supplements
Dietary supplements: vitamins, minerals, herbals,
energy drinks, shakes, etc. can be harmful to your
body and your health (and get you banned)!
Products are not magic potions/pills.
They do NOT replace:
Healthy eating, Hard work, Training, Sleep
Do Not take any dietary supplement without first talking to your coach!
“There is no place in the sport of swimming, for our children, to be using sports-supplements which are clearly intended for adults. They aren’t made for kids, they may not be safe in the first place, and the potential for great harm is present.”
- Frank BuschUSA Swimming National Team Director

Recovery: When to Begin?
Post Training Recovery
Carbs & protein absorbed quickly after exercise

Foam Rollers
Recovery: Sleep is Crucial
In Mah's opinion,
Elite athletes need 8-10 hours of sleep.
"So often sleep is the first thing to go when
there's a busy schedule and a lot on the
plate," said Mah, who works with Golden
State Warriors.
Have Protein Before Bed
Recovery: When to EatEat a carbohydrate snack before morning workouts (even if it’s a small snack!)
Bring a carbohydrate/protein snack or a sports drink for immediately after practice
Eat a meal within 1-2 hours after practice and recovery snack
