Geochuck's Kicking is a Total Waste of Time Thread

It is necessary to have someone point out flaws in your stroke. Legs must do their part for sure. If your legs are dragging it is not going to help you. I have never said don't kick. Your butt has to be up, your heels have to be close to the surface. I would rather see a kick that keeps the body level so the arms can do their work.
I do not see how a two beat kick can be effective but some make it work for them.
Everthing has to work together or you do not get faster.
