I'm a transfer student . So this is my first semester here and I've have the opportunity to train with a two-time Olympian and he's a phenomenal coach . telling me things I've never heard before .
You need to be all around happy with the decision that you make knowing that if something happened with your sport, you would still want to be in that place because that place is meant for you and you didn't just go there for a person that may or may not permanently be there . Some of the most important things I focus on regarding my training is honestly there isn't anything that's more important than the rest . But I find that I need to put a lot of intention into everything I do .
Whether that's at end of the season goal, an end of the day goal, anything like that . So when it comes to recovery, eating, lifting, diving, stretching, dryland, water practice, for us there's a it's a it's non-stop all the time, all year long . It's a year-long season .
so fine-tuned that it might feel like you're not necessarily improving every day, but tracking your progress, making sure you're understanding how you're winning and how you can improve every day . That's made a really big difference for me in how I view my training and how I view my performance . Someone that a coach that was never actually my coach, but someone that I almost committed to, he told me that you shouldn't ever commit to a coach .
Uh especially when you get to a pretty elite level and all the details are so minute . so fine-tuned that it might feel like you're not necessarily improving every day, but tracking your progress, making sure you're understanding how you're winning and how you can improve every day . That's made a really big difference for me in how I view my training and how I view my performance .
