Hi all,
My flutter kick is really weak: lack of power, not effective/efficient. (I feel myself moving a longer distance with a single frog kick than with a single flutter kick!) Part of that is due to the small amplitude of my kick (I am petite; I could deliberately kick with a bigger amplitude but it doesn't come naturally to me and hence tires me out quickly.) I could hardly move forward in stronger currents and this has limited my diving so far to tranquil waters only.
I am currently working on improving my technique and building up stronger legs. If anyone could give me advice on specific leg exercises and tips on technique improvement, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance.
Cheers,
Ange
