Prepare for a meet with these 5 essential tips! 

Meet days can be nerve wracking, but being well-prepared can make all the difference. Today, I’m sharing my top 5 tips for preparing for a gymnastics meet. These tips will help you feel ready and calm for when you need to preform to your best! 

Tip #1 - I always try and visualize all my routines the night before. It helps me see myself in that position and it helps me calm my nerves by showing myself that I can do these routines. 

Tip #2 - me personally I like to keep myself busy. Meaning when I have a meet later in the day I don’t want to be stressing the whole day about my meet. So I will go shopping or go and do something to keep my mind busy before I go compete. 

Tip #3 - I am religious and a Christian. One thing that always helps me calm my nerves before I get up on an event is to pray. When I pray I forget about myself and I remember why I am there today. I forget about the stress and anxiety that sometimes can be brought with a competition. 

Tip #4 - I make sure that I am fueling my body with good foods and nutrition the days leading up to my meets. It’s never fun to compete with you feel gross and sluggish. When you eat good you feel good and I want to feel energetic and healthy while competing. 

Tip #5 - SLEEP!! Sleep is a crucial factor of helping me feel good and awake when competing. I try to go to bed at a reasonable hour the night before but also days leading up to the meet. When I sleep good, days in advance I get on a schedule of good sleep and I feel good leading into the meet! 

Hope these tips helped you out a bit. Let me know if any of these help, or even if you already do anything like these let me know in the comments!
