Honestly, if I can plan out a few meals ahead of time, I feel much more organized.

I love to swim. When I jump in the water, I feel like I'm 12 years old again. It's really funny how it does that to me.

Daily repetition matters when a kid is learning to swim. It can be 20 minutes in a lesson or an hour practicing for a couple of weeks.

A great way to get all the right nutrients is to make a colorful plate - mix of good vegetables, carbohydrates, and protein. If you notice all your vegetables are green, change it up and add another color for a variety of benefits in one meal.

Preparing mentally takes more out of you than the physical aspect of it.

The kids know what I'm doing when I exercise, and that's powerful. So don't just tell your kids to go play outside. Take a moment off your computer, put on your tennis shoes, hop outside and help them start their game and run off some energy.

I enjoyed every bit of my swimming career. I think that's the most important advice - to enjoy what you do
