Personal training for swimmers

I am considering getting some personal training sessions this spring but I'm not sure what sort of training would be most beneficial. I've been working on improving my core strength and I think that helped. My focus events are distance freestyle and backstroke but I would like to improve my short-axis strokes. I have pretty good uppper body strength already and don't want to bulk up. I can tell that my left knee is weaker than my right and my breaststroke kick is imbalanced. Ideally I would like to improve my SDKs and power off starts and walls. And, of course, I'd like to look better in my bathing suit. :D Recommendations?

    Man I wish more people who held top 10 times would be as motivated as you are! Maybe that will rub off on me!!! My goal is after next weeks meet I'll start doing more dryland work! having said I am fairly strong upper body and back from presses and deadlifts. My legs are naturally more explosive than most from all the jumping I've done for track... but my cardio is where I really lack. As is my core.
