So I have a problem: one of my legs is significantly weaker than the other. I think I've always known this, but swimming really made me aware of it because whenever I do a kicking session with a kickboard, I always drift to one side of the lane and usually end up hitting the pool wall or lane divider.
This happens with flutter kick, frog kick, and scissor kick and it's my left leg that's the weaker of the two. It's gotten to the point where I'm getting hip strain in my right hip from my right leg picking up all the slack. How do I isolate the left leg to make it stronger in the water? Maybe wear a small fin on that leg?

1) You could simply try to work harder with your left and ease off on your right. Maybe for a few weeks.
2) As Windraft said, you could get data - get a video and look carefully at what's happening.
3) Meditate on this wisdom as you work out:
