I am starting to fear that this is what I do, too. I have to really be pushing it to do a six-beat kick. And yet, I have no problem doing it when I wear fins. Hmm.
Wow, that's really interesting about the fins. I find that the fins only make the issue worse and I almost never swim with fins. If I swim with fins, they slow down my kick rate and I have to either slow down my stroke rate or swim with a half-beat kick, if such a thing exists!
(Also, fins exacerbate my leg cramping.)
