  1. to keep warm because the water in the pool is coldd


  2. chlorine maybe


  3. Divers shower in between each dive to keep their muscles warm after getting out of the pool. The temperature of the pool water and the air are usually different (the pool is usually around 80 degrees, with the air temperature between 68 and 72 degrees). This difference can cause muscle tightness. To combat this, divers warm up in either the showers or a hot tub

  4. They are trying to stay warm.

    The air temperature around a pool is on the cool side. Otherwise all the spectators and judges would melt from the humidity. The pool water is also cool. Add cool pool water + cool air temperature, and the divers can easily get chilled between dives. The pool-side shower and whirlpool are a place to stay warm and loose.

  5. people use the bathroom inside the pool. so they clean themselves
