Is it true that TALLER people have MORE trouble breathing when swimming than SHORTER people???

Question

i must know !

thankyou.

Answer 1

As a fellow swimmer, who is very tall, I have very good breathing. My lungs are actually bigger then most of my swim team. I think that maybe Bigger people have more trouble breathing then THINNER people but height has nothing to do with it.

Answer 2

no the opposite. Tall people have greater strokes and can go further with fewer strokes. Tall people make up most of the worlds top swimmers.

Answer 3

*AHEM* TALLER people can reach the end of the pool faster than shorter people, with more strokes than shorter people. HOWEVER, is SHORTER people (depending) who can actually swim superr fast...they can be more skilled and breathe better.

it all depends. u know? =]
