Hey guys, Ive been trying for about a week now to do a the drill where you float on your back and use your legs to swim but i can't seem to do it right. Can you give me some technique tips, how to propel the legs or what do i need to do to actually move. it is very frustrating.
Thanks

I am playing around with many positions and getting quite comfortable. I had a GREAT set today. I know the ideal head position is straight and in the water with the water line touching the goggles. seems like my neck is working extra hard in that position thought...
Another thing i was toying with was kicking straight from the hips or bending the knees... both with great success by the way. i do kick in the water, i find it much more useful and efficient. really great drill to just relax on the back and do laps... real zen moment :)
