6. Words from Coach Mark
Effective Kicking
Effective kick starts with a drive at the hips and the power builds down through your thighs, shins, and ankles to your toes. Keep your legs long and relaxed.
Kicking is like walking. It is a smooth, comfortable, relaxed movement that starts at the hips.
Kicking power starts at the hip and the power flows down your leg.
----HIP, THIGH, KNEE, SHIN, FOOT---
Your freestyle kick should be no wider or deeper than the deepest or widest part of your shoulders.
Most common kicking problems
-large excessive knee bend or all legs
-stiffness or rigidness in the action
-feet lifting out of water
-relax, long and be loose
Corrections
-more from hips, slight knee bend
-heels breaking the surface
Remember to keep your legs long and relaxed!
Good luck!
