This study compared the shoulder muscular performance and lean mass between elite and recreational swimmers.Thirty elite swimmers (mean age +/- standard deviation=23.1 +/- 3.5 years) and 21 recreational swimmers (mean age +/- standard deviation=20.8 +/- 2.1 years) participated in the study. Maximum muscle strength and time to maximum muscle strength of shoulder flexor, extensor, abductor, and adductor muscles were measured using a handheld dynamometer. Lean mass of the arms and body (excluding the head) were measured using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA).Results revealed that compared with recreational swimmers, elite swimmers had higher maximum muscle strength of the shoulder flexor, extensor, abductor, and adductor muscles (all P.05). The lean mass values in the left arm (P=.037), right arm (P
