Hi everyone,
I'm an actor that will playing the lead role of a competitive swimmer in a stage play that is going to be in production next year. (October/November)
I'm 34 years old, 70KG, 6ft1. I'm active and occasionally go to the gym, but not for intense workouts. I play Tennis, Padel and Squash, used to play basketball and Football (soccer).
The aim behind this body transformation is to be as respectful to the sport and respect for the people that dedicate their lives to this. I would like to do my utmost to depict as accurately as possible the general physique of a swimmer that has left the sport in recent years (but still maintains a very good physical shape). The athlete my character is based on is a former sprinter (100m).
In January, I will be working with a personal trainer and hitting the pool and gym; I'd like to push myself out of my comfort zone, but in a safe and sustainable way. I wanted to reach out and see if there's any advice or tips from anyone here who can help guide on things that I should keep in mind.
Stuff like:
- Advice on how to choose goggles, swimming caps, etc.
- Dietary advice
- Training regimen
- Swimming techniques
Thank you for your help!
