Well, played with this a bit at my swim today. Notes, if I just used the front side kick and made sure to hold the back side foot still, I got very little rotation. If I used the front side kick and a bit of the back side kick, I got a lot more rotation. You do this, both legs in the front side kick and your back side kick is with toes pointed in. I tried it with my lower leg bending 90 degrees or so, and that got me the most rotation of all, and that was using front and back side kicks at the same time. Of course if your foot is bent to normal walking position, you will get almost no rotation, but the lower leg by itself will push against the water a little bit. Another thing I played with was # of kicks per length of the pool. Funny thing, I got down the length in the same number of cycles using 2 beat kick and 6 beat kick. No clue as to how that happened.
Can’t wait to try this 😂🤣💪🏽! For my IM compensations I’ve adopted the Katie Ledecky style with barely any kicking, but I still want to get the most out of those kicks. Thanks Coach Mandy!
@@ngdawgs1 yes! It’s just one kick isolation repeats so it will definitely improve your 2BK 💯. Get it! 🔥💪🏼
This channel is very underrated. Some of the best advice out there for people trying to improve their technique. Plus, coach Mandy is charismatic and explains clearly and not too fast.

Targets my main problem, must try it today, thank you! 👍
You’re welcome enjoy!
You are an incredible teacher. Thank You for making swim lessons fun and easily applicable.
Thank You so much Coach Mandy! Your swim tips have helped me to vastly improve my water comprehension.
Thank you, I have always struggled to understand and feel what am doing wrong. This is a great example. Will try it out. I can't believe it took me so long to find this very useful clip. Thanks again and you have my vote 👍
This I am looking for because I'm having problem of my kicking...don't know the right way... Thanks for sharing coach...
Nice idea, can't wait to try it out
wow this one sounds like the best kicking advice i've seen so far, gonna try it this week
Simply brilliant..Now i gotta binge watch everything
Super easy to understand. Short and sweet. Thanks.
Coach you are an inspiration, and I thank you. Your beauty runs deep. From your soul outward.
Thank you 🙏🏼☺️
Uh, why did I not find your channel before this? Thank you! Great advice
Wow! This is surely a very interesting way to check if my kicking grab the water! I will give it a try and see what happen! Thank you!
Awesome Marc! Hope it went well and you were able to try this skill out. ✅ -Coach Mandy
Interesting...I never tried to use the kick to rotate the body. I thought that the hips caused the rotation. I'll definitely take this new information to my next swim practice. Thanks Coach Mandy for this new perspective.
Hi CM, just arrived home. I’ll add this to my vertical wall kicking. Looks like core and balance are important stabilizers here 🙌🏽🏊🏽♂️
100%, this is why it is important to isolate with 1 kick at a time 🙌🏼✅🔑
@@SWIMVICE GM CM, Initially I didn’t move much, but after I relaxed more while submerged I was able to get the right feeling and rotation of 1.5 turns per kick, thanks 🏊🏽♂️🙌🏽
I will try this tomorrow. I have a very bad kick. I actually go backwards it's so bad. I've been swimming for 9 months now. I'm getting comfortable in deep water, but only stroke I know well is side stroke and I'm pretty slow at it.
How are you able to maintain your complexion while swimming regularly? I get so much darker during my swimming lessons. Water-resistant Sunscreen spf 80 doesn't seem to work for me. I would appreciate any tip.
How do you control your breathing? You take the air by nose or by mouth? I'm in doubt.
really effective drill, thanks
You’re welcome! Have fun with it 🙌🏼💪🏼🏊🏼♂️ -CM
I did it today! Thank you! 😄🙏
Thank you 😊
Really wishing for a step by step dolphin kick, pleeease
Amazing insight
Wow...it looks like very beneficial drill, thanks for sharing
Yes, very much so. Enjoy your practice Sandeep. -CM
Hmm, kind of surprised that you didn't mention the use of both feet. Most of the time we focus on the front side kick (down in freestyle, up in back stroke), and don't really mention or put any focus on the back side kick. While it doesn't provide as much thrust as the front side kick, it is very important. Perhaps more so for sprinters than distance swimmers.
Thank you for the video, one for me to try. I'm just wondering do tight hip flexors and maybe tight leg muscles in general cause a bad kick and subsequently being out of breath after maybe 100m?
Hi Michael - yes, great question. They absolutely contribute to feeling out of breath when swimming. The key it so relax the leg and only focus your action on kicking forward in this drill while keeping your leg extended. Your leverage point is the top of your foot. When in freestyle the action would be down instead of forward. Stretching your hip flexors and ankles will also help improve this motion. 🙌🏼✅👍🏼 -Coach Mandy
@@SWIMVICE Thank you very much for taking the time to reply. I'll give this a go, especially the stretching too.
Amazing ❤🙏
¡Que fácil lo hace ver! Felicidades, Bonita.
It's a bad habit but I'm so use to kicking with my lower leg/knee when I start kicking with my hips and glutes I overthink it too much and end up messing up on my breathing and strokes.
It's another reason why I get tired more quickly.
Love this video! Practiced it and can actually get a full twirl. This might be off topic, but has anyone noticed that they’re traveling a bit with their vertical flutter? I tend to move backwards myself for some reason 🥵
Awesome. Yes, keep your core engaged and your legs gently pressed together and you should stay in place! 👍🙌 -Coach Mandy
So nice 👍❤️🌹
Your ankle is not visible in this video. That's why it is very difficult to understand your vertical kick.
🤩👍👍👍👍👍👍
Sadly, my pool is too shallow for this drill 😅
Jesus Christ, this is much harder than the skill it's supposed to help me learn!
Thank you for reaching out! I understand that learning the freestyle technique can be challenging at first. The key to mastering the stroke is a combination of full body alignment and kicking from your hips, not your knees. These techniques are covered in depth in our SWIMVICE Freestyle Program.
