hi, coach, i can do 1000 meters just by kicking without stopping. In the case where I do 4 beat kicks, I would like to know if the 2 beat kicks are performed on the same right arm?
The 'lifting' part of the kick has never made any sense to me. One reason is that as one kicks to the front side, the other foot kicks to the back side. True, the back side kick is generally not as strong as the front kick... Also, the 'elevation' of his hips comes from body rotation, not any actual elevation change like with the dolphin kick. Sun Yang does seem to use a lot of bend in his lower leg, more so than most.
Nicely explained 👍🏻 I see some teach the crossover two beat kick - describing it as more energy efficient for long distance open water swimming. Is there any good reason for this claim?
Love the 2-beat. Game changer for me in triathlons!
Excellent breakdown!
Brothers in arms. Dire Straits.
you know you're doom when you're using 6 beat kick and slower than the guy using 2 beat kick.
Nicely explained. But the background music is really unnecessary.
How about 4 or 6 beat kick ?

Haywire
With the right arm entering, the right foot is stretched and then the left arm is pulled with the left foot kicked
Very good analysis. I just filmed myself the other day….I am a mess! It’s amazing what you think you are doing vs actually doing.
A great analysis - swim coach was telling me to do this and I didn’t quite understand what it looked like. And ‘Brothers in Arms’ in the background.
The slow motion analysis is a great way of learning. I taped myself and saw the huge difference to improve.
very very good,informative, right to the point analysis. great, rare video.
good ! makes things clear. I thought it was right arm, left kick. new for me stroke & kick on same side, more efficient.

Good analysis!👍👌
Most clearly with best example explained. 👏
Thanks for precise analysis. very much appreciated.
very clear with slow frame analysis, super!

I think crossover kick is always a fault no? Be interested to see clips of people teaching it if you have any.
No
Love this analysis
