What are your New Years Resolutions? :)

filipkostic-deactivated20120203 asked: the entire team used to do this back when i trained in Serbia, but here in the states i've only seen the goalie do it. We would do our swim workouts with sweat pants and sweatshirts on in the water. for legs we would do laps up and down the pool doing egg beater with a plastic 10lb lawn chair above our head. we would do it with a lawn chair rather than a weight because with the added surface...

ifindpeaceunderwater asked: Goalie workout :D tread with your hips up and lunge up, shooting your arms out as far as they go (we call it crucifixes) do this for 4-5 minutes straight. Also reach up and touch the top right corner of the goal, tread all the way across the goal keeping your fingers on the top bar, go back and forth 4 times. Rinse and repeat <33

f-o-r-e-w-a-r-n-e-d asked: i've been a goalie for three years and if he means land training I would suggest getting a weighted ball and doing goblet squats, halos, lunges, and bent over rows. Also just do alot of push ups and trunk rotations. I have messed up shoulders so i also do alot of shoulder workouts with resistance bands. I would also suggest doing all of your pool workouts with a weight belt it makes a big...

Happy Holidays to all my wonderful followers! :)

Trying to be politically correct here! Guess I could have also tried Happy Merry ChristmaHanuKwanzakuh! :D Anyways, enjoy the holidays while you can because it’s back to training after this! :)

twentysixfourteen asked: So my warm up is 4x75 free,back,breast,eggbeater; 4x100 with the ball; 10x100 sprint with fins on the 1:40 (but you have to make them on the 1:00 and have :40 rest). After that, the rest of the team goes into passing and goalies (like me) still have another 300 warm up for legs, passing short and long distance, and a cage warm up. Hahahaha but i wouldn't have it any other way<3

girlwhocriedboo asked: Hey! I'm from England and I play water polo but there is nothing for us over here I haven't even trained for nearly half a year, but my coach got in touch the other day and is trying to get me to play national league next season, I really just can't wait to get back in the water I don't even care who it's with or against :-D

Goalie work out advice???

(submitted by http://redscarlettlove.tumblr.com/) Since I myself am not a goalie and never could be because I am just extremely horrible at it, I do not know any goalie workouts. I know the goalies on my team have generally always used weight belts and done swimming with resistance bands and other stuff to build their legs. IF ANYONE KNOWS A GOOD GOALIE WORKOUT, DO NOT HESITATE TO LET US KNOW!...

I know this isn't my personal blog but I just...

ifindpeaceunderwater asked: Hi!! so some random girl came up to me last year (freshman year) and she was like "you look really athletic, join water polo" so i did and guess what? i fell in love. I got really good really fast + was a top player, but my weakness was always keeping up with the "swimmers". so this year i joined swimming to improve. I went like a 36 on a 50 free in the beginning now i go like...
