Training • My typical week • Monday • 5.30–9pm: I start with a warm-up game of "wall tennis" with my coach. then I start weight conditioning. This involves sit-ups (three sets of 10 reps) and weights. With weight training, I can't lift over my body weight because I haven't stopped growing yet. Then I'll practise somersaults on a harnessed trampoline in the gym. This is followed by a series of dive-specific stretches and pool work on the 5m diving board. • Tuesday • 5.30–8.30pm: Wall tennis warm-up, weight conditioning, then gymnastics and trampoline work to develop my take-off technique and somersaults, before doing them pool-side. Once I'm in the pool, I start work on the 5m diving board and I can either do dive repetitions at this height, or work my way up to the 10m board. • Wednesday • 5.30–8.30pm: as above. • Thursday • 5.30–8.30pm: again it's the same sort of session. I will vary training throughout the week by adding in dry-land sessions (improving take-off technique with a springboard and crash mats). • Friday • Start training after school from 3.15-6.45pm. I follow the same regime as above. • Saturday • Training from 9am–12noon. Afternoon off. • Sunday • Day off.
Diet • 1. STAY HYDRATED. Always make sure you drink 4-5 cups of water per day • 2. DRINK MILK AND EAT YOGURT. By drinking 1-2 cups of milk or yogurt per day will help your bones and muscles grow stronger • 3. EAT 4-5 PORTIONS OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES. Fruits and vegetables give our bodies vitamins and minerals • 4. EAT BREAKFAST, LUNCH AND DINNER. By eating three main meals and snacks in between your body will be well fuelled for school, play and sport! • 5. LIMIT FAST FOOD. Fast food such as burgers, chips, cakes and chocolates can be eaten but only in moderation. Fast foods are like putting in the wrong fuel in a sports car.
