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)??

Bench press is fine. I've done dips, barbell bench, and dumbbell bench in my workouts. Sometimes a specific exercise will cause pain if you do it too much, so you can just switch to another one for a while.
