Mind Training for Swimmers

I would highly recommend this book for every competitive swimmer and i would also recommend it for every parent who is interested to let their teenage swimmers win races. Coaches should seriously read this book and implement it with swimmers. Swimming is not only physical, its physcological as well amd this part is sometimes overlooked in training programs. I improved 5 seconds applying race visualization in my 50 fly. I am a 33yrs old female master swimmer. This is a A must have book

I only gave 4 stars as we are still reading - I would recommend, easy to read and personal stories and techniques can apply to anything.

The information was repetitive from one chapter to another.But I still got a great deal of information out of it and I'manxious to apply it to my swim competition.

I've read this so I can help my daughter get through the struggle of lack of confidence. It makes a lot of sense and has ideas that are easy to follow. However my 11 year old isn't doing the activities that would benefit her greatly. This is a book to go back to and read over and over and take time to practice mind training. I will persist with it (and my daughter!). I have recommended it to other parents/swimmers too. (although not her greatest revel :)

Reasonable

Great

All what I had expected and more. My Master swimmers have absorbed the full contents and feel raring to put the theory into practise.
