How much do you kick per week?

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?

    See this is my dilemma. Paul's saying kick at high intesity (which for me means no more than 25 at a go and probably not much more than 300 a workout without fins). Chris says yes kick and yes with fins. What am I to do? What did you guys (Paul, Chris) think of the posted workout above from a kick POV. I must say though, I've been doing Ande's (3x100 )75 cruise 25 afap without fins 3-4 times aweek now. My cruise feels faster. If I keep that going maybe I'll be able to do more "engaged" cruise kicking.
