I've noticed that when I kick on my back I really move...when I kick on my stomach it's not as fast. I wouldn't mind so much but I can only do so much backstroke due to an old rotator cuff injury. So...other than kicking (because I am getting really frustrated) what can I do to get my freestyle flutter more effective? Any dryland? I notice that there is rarely any "whitewater" when I kick, even when I feel like I'm kicking hard. I do see "boiling" though. If that even makes sense...Thanks:)

I've been doing that stretch, too, for a few weeks. It always stretches/hurts my ankles. If I've done a spin class that day, it hurts my quads. It has never hurt my knees. Caveat: I've never had knee problems.
It definitely works, my ankles are more flexible. I notice it when I walk.
Sitting in lotus-type postion, by the way, does hurt my knees.
