I am a swimmer and I have noticed that having a "fit" or "athletic" chest helps ALOT, but not by itself, all the muscles play their role and to completely neglect them could cause pains in your upper body. I knew a guy that had really strong triceps and weaker biceps and it gave him elbow problems...
