Hi Jenny, Rebecca does not reply through this forum. She is welcome to of course, but I fear that she is not a reader!

So many people say that they do not have time to exercise, that they are too busy in work or in school to do any exercise. Yet professional athletes like Becky Adlington manage to make the time, to fit long training sessions in around their schedule. Those that wish to lose weight should remember this. If you really want to lose weight, set the alarm an hour earlier and exercise for 45 minutes, rest 15 minutes, then hop in the shower – you will still ahve your full day ahead of you!

What do you eat now Ellie? Read up on healthy eating. If you are doing a lot of exercise then you may need a protein supplement too.

Well done Becky Adlington!

Today Rebecca Adlington won gold in the 800m freestyle at the Commonwealth Games in Delhi.

It’s all mental pressure. I put the most on myself because I want it so badly

She swam 800m in 8.24.69 minutes. Well done Becky! Olympic, European and Commonwealth Champion.

Hi Fern, you need both. Specifically how much emphasis is placed on strength, endurance or cardio depends on the types of events you want to swim in. Professional swimmers do put in a lot of time, endurance is vital.
