I'm trying to get general information on percent body fat found on Channel Swimmers. Numbers for either gender are fine. if anyone has any resources please let me know.
Thanks.
The reason for my question is that I'd seen a group picture of some English Channel swimmers in the USMS magazine within the last year or so. When I showed it to anyone they all commented on their "insulation". In constrast, the only English Channel swimmer who I have actually ever swum with was Rose Rice who was anything but heavy.
I was just trying to get a general idea of body composition for that event.
