Answer 1

Doing swim team will defiantly make you strong if you have tough coaches, actually in a recent study at Stanford University it was shown that of all athletes swimmers were the strongest. But you will need to work hard at swim team for a couple of years.

Answer 2

Well if you wan big legs and shoulders then yes. I have swam for many years and I hate what it did to my body. Dont get me wrong, it got me in very good shape, but I just dont like my thighs being big and having broad shoulders.

Answer 3

as far as i know swimming is a great way to get in shape

Answer 4

If your times have potential for national and the Olympics in a few years time, and you dont mind looking muscular or bulky, go for it, and realize your dream.

Just stay focused, be diligent and sensible in all aspects. The road to become a champion is strewn with lots of pain and joy, some failures and successes. Be strong-willed and optimistic. Cheers!
