Okay, good idea. Cup your hands for better resistance. Push or pull as hard as you can with every stroke. Now buy a set of hand weights. Swimming is better for shoulders than for arms, so if you want larger, stronger arms out of the pool, you need to do weight lifting.
I've been swimming since February, once a day, for at least two hours. I've seen almost no muscle growth. I have become better at swimming, but I haven't seen any real change out of the water. I am a little slimmer, but i think next year, I'm gonna try weightlifting first, and swimming second.
