OK gang.
The "kicking" bullies have rounded on me even though I had a fantastic swim this weekend. They are telling me I need to kick, my coach said don't over do it b/c it disrupts the stroke...
I can kick, I maybe didn't intergrate it in my 100FR to their approval but I am not convinced that kicking alone is the way to go.
I think working 100's with kick focus is a better way rather than yards and yards at "meh" pace.
What % of your yards do you kick per week, and how much of that is with fins?
I do a bit more than 10% but rarely 20%. Very little with fins except when doing SDK shooters. These I do both with regular fins and my monofin. I will also do a monofin workout on ocassion where I do up to 1000 or so of different types of kicking with the MF.
I don't use a board much except for breaststroke kicking. Most of my flutter and dolphin kicking is on my back in a streamline.
