You aren't talented in bodybuilding and you keep trying it. Go ahead start swimming again, put on some ankle weights and jump in the deep end.

I think the back ands legs are probably the most used muscles in swimming.  Look at them swim, the motion almost mimics a lat pull down (whether single or double)

There's not nearly enough protein in Fly Lice to meet his 10,000 gram a day requirement.

Pretty much every muscle comes into play but in reality the core is the most important area; where all your power comes from.  You're right though, the pull is like a straight arm pulldown.

I've noticed that along time ago.......but what I have REALLY noticed is that, at least the american team, isn't as muscular or hard as they used to be. BUT, the one Japanese dude was jacked. IMO, you can see who's on gear and who isn't.

The butterfly and the breast stroke will tear your lats up...Now try doing these things 3 or 4 times a week for hours on end...

Some of these women swimmers are on par with women bodybuilders when it comes to the FUGLY gene pool...Just about everyone of these chicks have man hands and 18 inch necks...

Women swimmers

1. Man Hands
2. 18 inch necks
3. Busted HGH grills
4. As wide as Jay Cutler
5. skinnyfat

Yeah i know guys...There are a couple that are lookers when they are all dolled up but that is the minority

You are absolutely right.
Paco and my gym mates always tell me that i am the hardest trainee in the gym.
But the hardness of swimming training was much greater than any leg workout routine i have ever performed.

Sometime i felt the danger of my life during swimming training for the competition.

Those were crazy days.

agree with 99% of this...However swimming like bodybuilding is a cult sport that attracks just as many homo's...So although most of these swimmers could get more pussy then just about anyone, the fact is they are not...
