VAC Masters Swimming
As many adults are interested in continuing their own aquatic development, the Vashon Aquatic Club is proud to announce an Adult Masters Swim program for the summer.

The session will run for seven weeks at the King County Pool.

The masters program will be lead by Lisa MacLeod, USA Swimming Coach and Masters swimmer.

Session Dates:
Summer 2008
June 24rd - August 7th
with a BBQ on Aug 9th

Practice Times: TBA

Why do it?
As we get older, the aging process is usually accompanied by losses in aerobic capacity, muscle size, power, speed, coordination and flexibility - how depressing! Training of even modest proportions can radically reduce this rate of decline.

Vashon Aquatic Club Masters program offers structured practice sessions with dryland training, set workouts and on-deck coaching. The program is geared to build skills, strength and endurance - whether you want to train for a triathalon, compete in a meet, or simply improve your swimming and keep healthy.

Description:
This level of swimming is perfect for adults who want more emphasis on a workout and stroke development than recreational or lap swimming can offer. It is a coach run practice with a focus on developing core skills, technique and stamina. The 2 hr practice runs on Tuesday and Thursday for seven weeks.

Can I compete?
When you enroll into the program you will become a member of either USA Swimming or US Masters and will be able to compete as opportunities arise.

TRAINING TIPS!
Feed that body right!

Take the USA Swimming nutrition quiz and test your nutrition IQ.

What should I eat before practice?  At meets and what are some hydration tips?
