Does anyone else flat out refuse to do kick sets because they hate it and are convinced the knee will get aggravated to the point that the returns become negative?
Is there evidence to support that you are in fact better off avoiding kicking or am I just being a wuss?

While kicksets are hard for me, they don't put any burden on my knees really. Only when I do a crappy *** stroke kick do my knees feel any sort of pain.
Long tailed fins with help of course but it will be all the harder when you take them off or at least that's my opioion. You also have to remember that the power of a flutter kick doesn't come from the knees, it comes from the upper portion of your leg.
I've come to realize that the flutter kick is a very hard kick to get down pat and takes time and practice.
