Hey, all
Althiugh I have read the situations of some new swimmers on this board, I feel that my situation is somewhat different.
I have a decent level of conditioning, being that I am a powerlifter, who sometimes sprints, 2-3 times a week. However, I have wanted a sport for a long while that wont interfere with my spring sport of golf. I though back four years, to 5th grade when I was on a swim team, I absolutley loved it, but why I quit is beyond me.
---
enough rambling! Could someone point me in the right direction? I have several good friends who are swimmers, and swim on the same team, however only one of them swims year round. I know that I could be better than them if I swam all year, commitment is no problem for me!
Stats: 5 foot 8 170lbs (Need to lose some fat, I would be much leaner at 160lbs) squat 375lbs deadlift 330lbs bench press 230lbs push press 180lbs.
-Any help is greatly appreciated.

Don't worry about shaving the body until you are top 10 in the world. At the level you are at now it won't make that much difference. My friend Dennis Matuch had a lot of hair all over his body and he was one of the top marathon swimmers in the world.
