Antrax, I can respect that. I was in a motor vehicle accident and swimming now is not the same. I do still try to jump in and enjoy a few laps, but I'm not ready for more than that at this stage of my recovery. With all the time I used to devote to swimming however, I do have a lot of focus and atte... |

Antrax, I really enjoy the quote you have at the bottom of your post. If you want to get back into swimming, but you'd like it to be more interesting--I found reading a resource on technique informed my practice a lot more and made it more like playtime. Swimming Fastest, and The Coaching Bible were... |

Hello, I'm a Canadian from a very small place on an island. I grew up in a religious town where the teachers and parents didn't enjoy my natural proclivity to question the validity of the bible (or anything else), but I would escape their judgement by writing fiction. I got past that and I'm on the ... |

-Jimmy, what tricks of the trade! I get that kind of sense with coaching lots, someones doing something one way and having so much trouble and it only takes one tip to make it a world easier. -Noca, I'm not in training myself at this moment because I'm recovering after a motor vehicle accident. But ... |

That's really informative, Jimmy, thanks for the reply. I do think that swimming does fall under the category of training that you're talking about. I would suspect that running sprints or lifting may also, however I'm not extremely familiar with that topic. I do know that many kinesiology students ... |

My go to suggestion for a standard of what it actually is to work on myself is a book, let's call it bibliotherapy, only less drab and more thrilling.
The Book: The Virtue of Selfishness by Ayn Rand |

Not the questions I was expecting! -Jimmy, if I'm correct in thinking that your distinction here is between Aspie (or not diagnosed) and High Functioning Autistic (diagnosed) then I would refer to the first identification more closely at the time being, considering that I'm only in the process of co... |

Hey Forum, If you're here looking for advice, I'm more than open to being asked questions if this is of interest. I swam competitively from a young age and wanted to go to the Olympics. The finical circumstances of my parents never permitted me that level of competition, but I had a technical swim c... |
