     One basic rule about swimming is that you shouldn’t eat a lot before you go swimming. You should wait about an hour after a meal, longer if it was a very big meal.

      Another important thing is that you should warm up in the water before you start swimming, especially, if you are racing. You shouldn’t warm up and get hot then jump into a cold swimming pool.

     When you are warming up you should do a lot of stretching exercises for your legs and arms particularly. You can do these stretching exercises on the side of the swimming pool.

     When it is not very hot, you should put your clothes on immediately after swimming, because you can easily catch a cold.

     What you eat and drink is also important for swimming. Often you can lose a lot of water when you are swimming, so you should drink lots of water after swimming, especially when it’s hot.

     You should also eat lots of food that gives you energy, especially when you are training a lot. That means that you should eat things like potatoes and pasta, which have a lot of carbohydrates.
