Does the ability to float due to higher body fat make swimming easier than for swimming with muscular body that does not easily float?
Quite simple really. If you wanted to float I'm sure it would be harder with alot of muscle pulling you down. Having said that, though, because you have alot of muscle you can keep yourself afloat, you don't really have to worry about just floating. Also in competition it doesn't matter how much muscle you have, because it may weigh you down, but with those muscles you are still going to go extra fast.
