i have read (here actually: www.swimdcac.org/.../article5.html) that the bench press does more harm than good for swimmers. what is everyone else's opinion (and experience)??
I lift three times a week. Of all the lifting I do, which isn't a ton to begin with, I do the least amount of bench presses. Something about it makes me think it can't be good for swimming and/or I'm likely to rip something and hurt my swimming. Plus, I'm pretty weak.
