Want to try this drill. Can someone help me with the timing?
How many kicks per arm motion. I'm not much of a flyer.
You must understand too, a thoroughbred breaststroker like myself will find it difficult to pervert my sacred stroke, so I am curious if anyone has a tip or two? :p

Had my daughters private coach tell me, PRESS DOWN, rebound, PRESS DOWN, rebound.
So the first kick is a press down with the.....thinking....hips, the second kick is a rebound from the first press down. He likened it to a big jump on a tramp, and then the body automatically will make a little jump.
Hard to explain out of the water. Works though, since I have been thinking about it in this manner, my fly positioning in the water is much better. ..still not great, but not bad for this old lady.
i think if you are doing the drill to work on the ***-stroke glide...one kick (and think of it more as a body dolphin)
if you are doing this drill to work the b-fly kick timing...two kicks (the br-stroke pull should work as a less energy-sucking, violent, child scaring, middle child look at me, upper body alternative)
