[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many 12 year olds are swimming 5-6 days a week….[/quote] And burnt out and hate swimming when they reach their puberty… [/quote] I know 2 fast swimmers in the 15-18 age group who both have vertebral fractures from swim. Apparently it’s a common overuse injury. Can you imagine having that at age 16-17? Lordy. These kids are overworked. They’re great kids and swimmers but they’re not going to swim D1 or anything. I just don’t see the point of swimming that much, even if you love it, and risking such injury. [/quote]
