are you saying that resitance increases on a 1 to 1 ratio as you swim faster? I do know that resistance increases with speed, however as you apply more power should still provide an increase in speed, albeit with much less effeciency.
I'm not sure what the mathematical ratio is, but without a doubt, there is a correlation. In the water, increasing power without improving efficiency, is a waste of time.
