Is having broad shoulders and back a good or bad thing? Should you have extra fat or be extra lean? I wonder how much effect one's body shape/type have one's speed.

    Swiminton- if you desire some more fat for buoyancy, then we can start a 'fat drive' for you- I'll start the ball rolling & donate 10 pounds...before you know it you'll be bobbing like a cork! C'mon everybody, start giving lard 'til it hurts!
