I wanted to know if there are some drills I can do while swimming that will gain muscle in the arms, legs, stomach, shoulders etc.
Thanks

I agree with Blue; weights and sprints. Use all four strokes; Fly is great for shoulder, back and abd strength. *** develops good arm strength. While backstroke is only good for rest during 400 IM :p .
Use paddles with caution. A good abd workout is to do underwater butterfly kick with arms out in front of you, or do the butterfly kick on your back.
