  • Throw the scale away Fort. Lifting heavier and trying to develop more explosive power (combined with a good swim program and diet) will create more definition and you will most likely add some weight as muscle is denser than fat. Not sure why there is so much skepticism here...do you think Natalie Coughlin is "big"? How about lacey Nymeyer? Gary Hall Jr.? look at any elite athlete swimming the same events you do and tell me they are "big"? And trust me they are almost all lifting this way....
