During freestyle, obviously most of your forward motion comes from the arm and shoulders. How much should your kick contribute to your progress? I'd guess about 20% if you're doing things correctly. Any opinions?
Also - has anyone here every used the Finis "Swimsense" device. It's basically a watch you wear that records your workouts. You go home and download it into the computer and it somehow analyzes what you just did. Has anyone here found it useful?
Thanks.

Start with the realization that the whole body, from pelvis to head contributes to the stroke, not just the arms and shoulders. If you are not using your abs, pecs, lats and traps, then you could connect to them and add a great deal of efficiency and power to your stroke.
