Why kick?

More swim info to keep the June theme going

I swim w/ the Federal Way masters swim group and love it.
Our coach, Wendy, regularly incorporates kick drills into our workouts (I do NOT love them).
I always do the drills to the best of my ability and I've had some ah ha moments and my kick has improved (slowly).


After reading this article on line,
Training Tip - Boosting Your Kick By LifeSport Coach Lance Watson
the link is below - it is worth reading

I want to say Thank you Wendy! I'm a better open water swimmer because of your coaching!
and for all you triathletes who don't think you need to kick to save your legs for the bike/run - hopefully the article provides some insight to the value of a good kick!

Swim like a fish!
