I was trying to practice my kicks, i tried slow and fast, neither will move me across the lap at all without my arms.
I was using a kicking board, and i will kick from my hips, or quads, nothing. Wont' move an inch.

I tried this again today without the boards and made a note to really point my toes.
Getting rid of the board really helped. At least i moved forward a little. But it was painfully slow, very slow, i should say.
I also realized that I'm extremely slow with my freestyle coz this lady next to me was practicing her flutterkicks (with a kickboard), and she was faster than me!!! I was trying that slow, relaxed long stroke thing, and when I see other people do it, it's relaxed, long, smooth, and fast. Mine was slow, slow slow.
I guess I'll find out why tomorrow at my first masters class!
