Strength Training for Fly

I need to increase my strength to improve my success in fly. I have strong legs and a pretty strong core (though no six-pack), but my upper body is comparatively very weak. (I'm female and am not blessed with a "swimmer's physique".) Are there certain exercises that will help me with fly specifically, or should I just follow a general upper-body routine?

    Emmett, Excellent article. One quick question: are the SAP's head-lead or hand-lead? I find that I feel much more natural, and go farther per stroke, with hand-lead SAP. It also seems to me that hand-lead will flow much better in the SAP/full-stroke-fly transitions. Matt
