Does anyone else here NOT kick when they swim freestyle?
When I was 19, a coach told me that a lot of "real" freestylers don't kick, which was a surprise to me because every other coach I'd had would yell at me to kick during my events. I grew up thinking I was the odd one out, but maybe someone on here knows what I'm talking about...

I also taught handicapped swimmers and the arm actions can actually control the leg position and each one is an individual and what works for one does not work for everyone we had alittle over 1000 in this group.
I had a contract with the federal government and trained water therapists to work with physically and mentally challenged. We had in the group from profoundly hadicapped to almost any level. Even the profoundly handicapped could show their enjoyement of being in the water.
All we have to do with this group is modify and modify it is not one thing that works.
