I was just wondering what is the optimum “body form” (for a human of course – not a fish) to maximize swimming ability.
The factors taken into consideration would be height, weight, spinal alignment, overall volume, and a few other or “anthropometric” characteristics.
Happy Swimming!

I guess the flat belly thing then puts me way out on the wrong side of the spectrum then.....I guess that at least partially explains why I'm so slow in comparison to the so called elite masters swimmers in my agegroup?....Don't tell me I have to actually go on a diet or something now to get faster?...Yikes!!
