Helpful hints for swimmers to hydrate.
Water helps make your muscles elastic and helps prevent cramping.  You should be bringing a water bottle to practice every day and keep sipping water during meets as well.  Do you have a designated practice water bottle and have you been good about bringing it out to the pool deck with you?
Do you have a school water bottle or have a method to get fluids during school (next time we're actually in school)?
Why is a squirt bottle better than a twist bottle for practice?
Do you need to drink water after practice, too?  What's a good system to make sure you get water after practice?
Supplements.  Not so good.
What is a sports supplement and why are they so attractive to athletes?
What's a better way to build strength and health?
What makes supplements potentially dangerous?
What's the danger of looking for "short cuts" and how is a shortcut different than "Cracking the Code"?
Putting it all together:
Being a great athlete means that you take care of yourself.  Nourishing your body is showing care for yourself and your future.  Which aspects of nutrition and body care do you think you want to get better at and what results do you hope to see from this change?
