Geochuck's: Kicking is a Total Waste of Time Thread

As is sometimes the case Geo overstates things but is pretty accurate. A huge part of effectively using your kick is staying balanced ("integrate with stroke"). A sprint kick set for me is taking 4 strokes in a lap and kicking as hard as I can. Not just working on leg strength, but also head position and stroke balance. I warm up with a kick board because I like to see what is going on outsied the pool though!
