What is your opinion regarding vertical kicks as part of your workout?
What about sculling? I always feel stupid doing any sculling as it looks like I don't know how to swim and the lifeguards start staring at me like I'm about to sink.
:2cents:
Vertical kicking -- good. Great for the core.
Sculling -- Not good for me. I am told that it is good for one's feel of the water, but sculling does absolutely nothing for me. I think its benefits are a swimming myth. There are many, many other useful drills. I like the caterpillar drill for fly and nothing is slower than that -- I ignore the lifeguard stares. But my team still sculls, so I do it I'm supposed to.
