Do pre-race nerves hold you back from swimming at your best?

Tracey Hemphill, a seasoned sports performance coach, offers valuable insights on mastering performance and overcoming anxiety in the pool on this episode of Torpedo Swimtalk Podcast By focusing on clarity and filtering the right sensory information, you can take control of your swim performance and achieve better results.

This episode is packed with practical advice on dealing with pre-race nerves, using transformational vocabulary to shape your reality, and discovering the power of visualisation. Tracey explains how concentrating on aspects you can control, such as stroke count and breath rhythm, can put you in charge of the situation. We also delve into the common traits of successful athletes and the art of effortless effort.

Lastly, we explore the mental preparation needed for optimal performance, discussing the roles of biofeedback and mental work alongside visualisation. Tracey sheds light on how anxiety and excitement can be the same experience biologically, but the language we use to describe them determines our state. Mastering these techniques can help you reach new heights in your masters swimming performance and overall well-being. Join us for this engaging and informative conversation with Tracey Hemphill.
