Hi,
I have seen people doing Head-up dolphin kick drill. With arms on the side or arms extended.
What is your opinion on this drill?
Thanks in advance.

I found the greatest help for me when getting the stroke put together was not to concentrate on the kick and to make sure the arms cleared the water and exiting cleanly, along with getting the whole body from the shoulders flexing, the hips up then hips down legs automatically following (just little movement). The first time I did fly I did a 60 second 100yards. I was doing about 50 second 100 yard free at that time.
After I felt confident with the fly I would do 25s or 50s during our endless relay swims I would dolphin kick against the freestylers in the club. I was beating them doing the dolpin kicks.
