I have only dived 16 times and my last one was 6 years ago. I am now planning to follow my dreams of diving A LOT, I'm considering taking all the PADI scuba classes up to instructor. My only concern is that I'm not a good swimmer at all. I can only do breast stroke and I'm really slow. And I know that you need to swim a certain distance under a certain amount of time in order to become a dive master. So, I'm worried about that and I also need to feel more confident in the water.
I'm wondering if you can give me any tips on how to become a better swimmer, besides swimming. About 3 months ago I began going to the gym about 3 times a week and it would be good to know which areas of the body I should work out to help me become a stronger swimmer. Any ideas?
And how important is swimming really in scuba diving???
