if you're feeling a little tight, you might want to get in and do a loosen swim... maybe 1000 yards of REALLY easy swimming... my team gets in the afternoon before we leave for championships and does maybe 1000-2000 yards, if that. Just stretch it out, and avoid doing pull with paddles or kick with fins or anything that would raise your heartrate above 120-140.

yes, but not a full-out workout. swimming is an interesting sport where you can lose a feel for the water in a short amount of time, but you don't want to wear yourself out. good luck!

No. Before meets a taper is usually done. You gradually decrease the amount of practice time so that your body can rest and store up energy.

2 days before competition as rest in any successful training plan.

no, you should save you energy up and get well rested so that you can give it your all at your champs tomorrow.
