[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]10 year old starting winter swim does not need 3-4 or more practices a week. 2 or 3 are good. [/quote] Yes, they do. [/quote] Why? I’m here at the MCSL all star meet with a number of teenagers who did not start swimming 4+ times a week until 12 or 13 (one who just placed top 3). No need to go crazy in your first year of winter swim. Find a program that works for your family and see how they do with a 2-3 day/wk program. You potentially have 8 more years of this. No need to rush things.[/quote] +1 If you push too hard, they will burn out and quit. 2, sometimes 3 days a week is all that is needed at this age. My kid is 15 and is doing very well. [/quote]
