From the man whose WR has been broken four times in the last two months.....
I like his attitude. He could never be a USMS swimmer. Too much whining here about everything.

Why is kicking more important for men?
Leslie, Ron Jonson talks about women's legs floating more easily than men's legs that sink (but he says it more scientifically than that). He suggests a two beat kick is OK for women, saving the six beat for the end of a race (e.g. Manaudou).
Like Jonathan, I found myself agreeing with nearly all points discussed by Ron. I suspect the distance high mileage, no rest, short interval freaks will have more trouble with his views.
