There is no such thing. It’s a misrepresentation of the truth …a myth. How about Bigfoot? Nope. He’s a exaggerated conception of a person or thing.. a myth. And guess what ?…. Swimming has its share of myths, too – untruths that people think will lead them to success. But that’s just it – the following 10 myths are misconceptions, fallacies and false notions. Click on the Tip of the Week tab for the next ten weeks for the 10 myths. There is a common theme about all ten myths: people are always looking for a system or a secret or something they can buy or do to guarantee success. There “ain”t” no such thing. There is however, something that can make a real difference – something that can make every session outstanding and every day something special, something that can take every opportunity and turn it into a performance advantage.
