I have two questions.
1)When someone refers to 2 beat or 6 beat for a kick, is that per stroke or is that per two strokes (left arm, then right arm)?
2)It may just be me, but it seems impossible to count my kicks if I am trying to keep track of how many are in one stroke. It's like when people can pat their head while rubbing their stomach in circles...Is there another way to count the "beats" or do you have to be some citizen of waterworld?

Lars had a six beat kick already, but others (like Chris Thompson) switched from a two beat kick. Bill Rose believes it improves balance. The key, he says, is kicking enough to improve balance but not so much that you expend a lot of energy. His workouts include at least 30% kicking.
