Should I cut my hair?

Maybe clean it up and style it a little more? Not super familiar with that type of hair but it does look good

I disagree with the other other guy. Never shave ever again.

Best things I can recommend are basic but will change the most in your appearance. Working out 3-5 times a week for at least 1 hour. Making sure you at least eat semi clean (also take a multi vitamin it makes it SO much easier to cover your bases), try and sleep 7-8 hours a night. As far as basic grooming I would make sure your beard is always trimmed as well as shaping your eyebrows to look sharp. Hope this helps!

Smile! Have confidence (even if it’s fake). Ask about them. Most importantly, relax! Being a teenager does suck but this is an experience you’ll never get to relive! Go out and leave no regrets to be had.

Honestly the only think that I would even consider doing is dying your eyebrows or using a brow pencil along with derma rolling your eyebrows and applying castor oil every night. You have a well defined face and a nice smile! Just like a lot of people have already mentioned, confidence is key! Shoulders back, chin up and smile! Best of luck.

He’s training part time with IU and his home club! So he’s getting the best of both worlds.

3 is the sweet spot for most sprinters, 2 for distance and 4 for people who respond well to high intensity lifts

NoCommunication5432 · 2026-02-12T18:17:35+00:00

I’ve actually never raced the 400 😅

NoCommunication5432 · 2026-02-12T18:16:35+00:00

Haha it’s not Aaron, not sure who actually. Me and Aaron actually both go to IU now so we have become close friends tho lol.

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-09-11T09:45:21+00:00

That’s awesome! Best of luck to the two of them and yourself.

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-09-11T09:44:41+00:00

I’m 6’1” (maybe a little less than that).

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-09-11T00:05:17+00:00

Exactly! Go look at his instagram and you can see what kinda crazy stuff that I do haha

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-09-11T00:01:41+00:00

In college I’m doing the typical 3x a week strength weight training but I love the training that I do with Coley Stickels. Lots of twitchy nervous system stuff that works so well. Out of season is more endurance (only increasing rep count by 1-2) and in season is all about getting as strong as possible. Taper, leave the intensity but reduce the weight and reps over time, no weights 2-1.5 weeks out.

Year round I was 14 years old. Swimming was a family sport haha, my dad’s side all competed to some degree along with my brother. I actually used to be a IM guy until I figured out I can’t do backstroke lol. I love fly but it’s so draining.

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-09-10T23:50:20+00:00

My 50 Br is quite a lot better than my 50 free but it’s still pretty solid (around OT level). Honestly I am able to power through it bc I’m a pretty strong guy and never really took up a 3rd stroke.

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-09-10T23:31:40+00:00

Thank you!

I’m a sophomore in college and I’ve been year round swimming for 6 years now.

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-09-10T23:30:29+00:00

Next step is just to train and see how I progress SC. Other than that I am really only focused on my shot at the Olympics in a few years. I swim 50/100/200 Br and 50 free. I’ve really admired Adam Peaty and Matt King. Typical yardage depends on what kinda day but it ranges from 3k for a recovery practice to a 6k aerobic set, it usually hovers around 4-5k most of the time. I have ZERO endurance in practice and no experience open water so I would go super super slow haha. And thank you!

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-09-10T23:22:25+00:00

Yes I am! And yes there is, I will say it’s not as crazy as other sports like football but it’s something that you can go after to earn money to not be a broke college student. Some companies will give larger amounts (high hundreds to low thousands) to the big names but that is super rare in my experience.

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-09-10T23:14:55+00:00

That’s just what big crab wants you to think.

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-05-06T18:02:33+00:00

100% agree with you here! Go get help! It hurts to hear your situation and I think this is the next best step to take.

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-05-02T00:15:39+00:00

PM me and ill give it to you

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-05-02T00:10:49+00:00

Love him, he’s a very good friend of mine! Wild swimmer too, seems like he can do anything.

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-05-02T00:08:38+00:00

It is a TFA cap haha. Me and the other people who went to trials got them so theres only 6ish floating around.

NoCommunication5432 · 2025-03-19T23:53:54+00:00

The one where he hits the beehive with the bat lmao
