Kicking is essential to swimming.
If you want to swim fast, you need to kick fast.
With a board, without a board,
With fins, without fins.
While swimming or just kicking.
Consider improving your kick.
We need speed.

My natural kick is a two-beat crossover kick. When I try to increase my kick while swimming freestyle, it feels very unnatural but I know that a stronger kick would serve me well on shorter events. I trudge through kick sets but I don't feel like it translates to my swimming except in backstroke. How might I get used to kicking more while swimming? Would wearing short fins help?
