We asked elite triathlete Lucy Charles for her essential swimming training tips. In this one she focusses on how to relax after swimming to ensure the best recovery for your body.

– Stretch, rehydrate and refuel within 30 minutes of working out
– Taking the time to wind down properly helps you feel positive and reflect on how far you’ve come
