I’m considering 300cc silicone BA under the muscle but i’m a keen swimmer - swimming fast laps for 3-4 hours every week. I have a preference for an implant under the muscle - but have been told I will need to reduce my swimming in order to avoid pushing the implant out of place over time. Can anyone give me an estimate of what is reasonable e.g. 1 - 2 hours of swimming training a week would likely be ok, or if I go with an implant under the muscle should I be considering a new sport altogether.
