Hi,
Does anyone know of any websites and/or books that have detailed diagrams that show the primary and/or secondary muscle groups used during different types of swimming styles?
- Thanks for your help
Try here:

Actually, i'd suggest you visit the whole site, not just the Exercise part (Sorry Glider, did not mean to disparage your posting).
It's full of excellent knowledge and diagrams. I often re-visit and just browse around for hours.
I couldn't agree more:bump:

Thanks, yeah thats a really good site. I actually knew about and use it all the time for when I weight lift though. I'm looking more in particular for a muscle diagram that for example shows a guy swimming freestyle and shaded in red are the exact muscles being used/stretched.

Try Googling "muscles used in freestyle swimming"
You'll get lots of links

and you'll also find a lot of garbage. I'm sure you'll soon learn "triage".
