That's called muscle chomo
Keep talking all that mess and we might have to check you

I heard once two boomers saying that black people were genetically unfit to be good swimmers, is there some science backing this claim?

I'm too fat to swim, I love it but too selfconscious to go to a pool anymore

Not since an overweight 30 year old woman with Down syndrome crossed into my lane and I slapped her skull pretty fucking hard while doing freestyle. Old fat people ruined the pool, they literally take up a lot of space for anyone serious about training to actually train

I've also heard that. I've constantly heard it said that blacks have an extra bone or tendon in their foot that causes them to be much less efficient at swimming.
I think it's because blacks tend to have much smaller torsos and longer legs compared to whites. Honestly who knows though, it's probably just that blacks in general dont like to swim as much as whites do

yes.
They have less body fat, so they can't float as well.

Heck yeah, I fucking love swimming. Summer swimming is the absolute worst though.

>Whites storing more fat and having better buoyancy than Blacks

Yea, I've noticed that at my local swimming pool there are never many black people although the area around it is mostly black
>not that I complain, mind you

But swimmers are jacked asfuck!! just look at phelps, him had to be less than 8% at his prime.

Blacks simply cannot swim. Or at least, black MEN. You might see some black women at a pool, but never a man.
In usmc boot camp we had swim qualification. Gotta do some swimming shit to pass. ALL of the blacks sink like rocks in the pool.

no, I hate the chlorine

Apparently black people have a slightly different center of gravity. It gives them an advantage when it comes to running while the opposite is true for swimming. At least that’s what I’ve read.

Anyone got any good tutorials? Everyone I ask just says “lmao just swim bro, get in the water and just move XDDD”

Pro tip:

Do sets, at high intensity. Don't just swim slowly for extended amounts of time.

Sample:
10 x 50yds on 1:00

Of course

No, but I do have some tips:
>keep your body horizontal; tuck your hips in.
>don’t swim in shorts, buy a speedo of whatever length you prefer

Water polo is based. Been a competitive swimmer for a long time and water polo to me is just applied swimming.

You don't need a speedo. Bond shorts will do. I rock these around at pool parties too.

water polo is freaky as shit when you realize how deep the pool is where games are
