You're in the pursuit of excellence and success as a swimmer. At the end of the day, it's not physical talent, physical skill, or physical ability that's going to make the difference. What makes the difference is mindset, mentality, and attitude. What separates good swimmers from great swimmers is the mental side of the sport. This book is designed to help swimmers such as yourself to develop the mental strength and emotional resilience necessary to think strong, feel confident, swim fast, and be your best. To do that, The Swimmer's Mind contains 320 pages of the same strategies and methodologies I use when working with my individual clients and NCAA D1 Nationally-Ranked Swim Programs which have produced proven results and success at the Age-Group, National, NCAA, and International level. Readers will learn how to master the core aspects of the mental side of swimming such as how to be confident, how to eliminate nerves, how to create a strong racing mindset, and much, much more. If you're only focused on the physical side of the sport and not currently working to improve your mind for swimming, then you're neglecting the most important tool you have as a swimmer.

Winner of the 2012 National Book Critics Circle Award, Autobiography Swimming Studies is a brilliantly original, meditative memoir that explores the worlds of competitive and recreational swimming. From her training for the Olympic trials as a teenager to enjoying pools and beaches around the world as an adult, Leanne Shapton offers a fascinating glimpse into the private, often solitary, realm of swimming. Her spare and elegant writing reveals an intimate narrative of suburban adolescence, spent underwater in a discipline that continues to inspire Shapton’s work as an artist and author. Her illustrations throughout the book offer an intuitive perspective on the landscapes and imagery of the sport. Shapton’s emphasis is on the smaller moments of athletic pursuit rather than its triumphs. For the accomplished athlete, aspiring amateur, or habitual practicer, this remarkable work of written and visual sketches propels the reader through a beautifully personal and universally appealing exercise in reflection.
