Freestyle - Kick
Log In to Watch

With freestyle kick, the big thing is not to let it stop. It can be 2-beat, 4-beat, or 6-beat (which is what I like to use at the end of an IM), but no matter what you use it should be steady and constant.
Even when you take a breath, the kick should keep going with no pause and no hitch. A steady kick helps you rotate and keep moving forward.
