Can this drill be done to with a snorkel or having your head in the water and holding your breath is better? Just thinking in terms of volume here and building the muscle memory.. Thks

Hey, your videos have been a great help for me in learning to swim, thank you!

[@malsaul189]

Slick dance moves coach Mandy 😉

[@SWIMVICE]

Mal Saul haha thank you 😂🤓💃🏽💃🏽

Hi, you keep saying you need to kick from the hips, but in your demo near the end, your knee has almost an 80 degree bend and very little hip movement it seems. So, what gives? In many other videos from other coaches as well, they also say to kick from the hips but the underwater videos show a substantial knee bend as well. This is all very confusing to me. My kick is very ineffective and it seems I get more propulsion the more I bend my knee while also trying to rotate my hip as much as I can. Can you please comment about this? Thanks ps love your videos

[@bitfar]

Always different then other videos from other swimmers. I always learn something with you. Thanks a lot.

You're welcome Farid! Glad your swimming is going well. 🏊😄 -Coach M

[@anoshsethna2977]

Which leg do we use with which hand when swimming freestyle???

[@muhammadabraham4553]

You are the better coach M 💐💐

[@lucagian9801]

thank you coach M! at last i visualize what kicking from the hip means. your isolation to one leg of the kicking with consequent spinning was of the utmost value. Also, i kick nowhere near so efficiently 😭

[@SWIMVICE]

Luca Gian great! You will get it just a matter of time and consistency! 😀🙌🏼 -Coach M

[@lucagian9801]

i am consistent like the Northern star. coach w. sh today 500 mts of kindergarten drills (lateral kicking with breathing etc.) 300 mts backstroke kicking with extra care to the hips

[@flexifuerte]

So would you recommend the drill for technique instead of power or endurance...or can it be used for both?

[@SWIMVICE]

Definitely technique but it is all relevant. You need to establish a proper connection in freestyle in order to achieve power and efficiency. So it's a win win! 😄🏊-Coach M

[@lucagian9801]

and now i see why i fail my 2 beats kick. i think i must pull against the rotation. if the leg doesnt push enough it stiffens sitting on the water. i must experiment further

[@SWIMVICE]

Luca Gian keep me posted on how it goes! -Coach M

[@TrinaBelcik]

Will have to try these out this summer

[@SWIMVICE]

Trina Belcik Excellent ! Keep me posted on how it goes this summer. 😄🏊🏼‍♂️👏🏼- Coach Mandy

[@David-wh7rm]

Just found your channel, looking for advice for two beat kicks, look forward to more content!

[@SWIMVICE]

David T 🙌🏽🏊🏼‍♂️ Excellent welcome! As of right now, I do have a couple videos on this subject within my channel. Here is a short cut to both of them: 1) Identifying kick timing: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4G0lHt4fbuMjdE 2) My 2 Beat Kick Demo: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJqzoZx5ZZtlb6s Stay connected with me as I will be posting weekly quick advice and tips to help improve your training. 👍🏼 - Coach Mandy

[@David-wh7rm]

@@SWIMVICE thank you! I'm looking forward to trying out the technique more and nailing the timing. Initially I thought of it as kick before hand enters but now I realise the kick is what starts the roll of the body over to the other side before the glide. Just need to practice it more 😁

[@StephanieBerchiolly]

I think the only way this could be any better is if I was actually in the water being trained by you! Thanks, Coach Mandy!

[@akam0707]

Is back kicking is another way to improve freestyle kicking besides vertical kicking?

[@SWIMVICE]

Yes absolutely, if you focus on kicking from your hips it will help avoid the impulse to kick from your knees. Definitely another great option! -Coach M

[@SandeepGupta-kz8ul]

I really liked the dance in the end apart from the useful information.

[@SWIMVICE]

haha Swimming is always so serious. Time to change it up! :-D
