What is the ideal body shape/type for a great swimmer?
Former Member
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.

On ad of one of the top US females remain be of Shirley Babashoff when she was a swimmer back in the 1970's. Shirley was tall but not as tall as some of the women swimmers today, and slim then. How some swimmers have a lot more natural talent than others I don't know.
