What kind of body proportion is good for swimming? When one stands upright, a short torso and long legs are better proportion. Is the opposite true for swimming? Long torso is good for swimming, but seems long legs, too?

  • Does being too tall give one a kind of loneliness that other people don't experience? I have been 6' tall since 12. It feels wierd for me to be around lots of tall people. I am not used to looking up to talk to someone. Back in the 70's there were not a lot of 6' tall 12 year old girls. It was lonely at times, but I have since made up for it.:applaud:
