Does anyone know how strong the top swimmers are? Guys like M. Phelps or B. Hansen, how much can they lift with their legs, bench, lat pull, curl, tri ex, etc. I am making weight training a big part of my workouts, but I understand, at a certain point, adding more muscle or strength is not going to be of much benefit.
I understand that getting stronger will benefit me. I am just trying to find out how strong the elite swimmers are so I can have a goal. Once I get to that strength level, I know I can spend less time concentrating on strength, and more on swimming
