I do several stretches pointed out as no-nos in that article. I have a little routine that I always do, much of which I borrowed from Janet Evans' book. But after reading that I'm thinking I might just quit stretching altogether.

Yes there is a nice gentle breaststroke kick and I do it in every warm up.To start practicing an easy BR kick it is easier to do with a snorkel as then you can breath without worrying about momentum.I just do the full stroke really slowly working on range of motion especially in the ankles.I do about 100 of this before moving up to slow BR then easy BR and finish with 200 pace BR for the end of my warmup.I do this as the last part of my warmup after easy free,easy flutter kick,easy dolphin kick,and more easy free.
Thanks Allen, maybe I can incorporate more breaststroke in my training without injuring myself now.
