The Dark Side of Being Olympic Champion
Keep the session moving with another watch from the same channel.
When you kick from your knees, you create a massive wall of resistance and instantly kill your forward momentum in the water.
To swim a fast and efficient fly, your kick must be driven from your core!
Here is how to master the perfect dolphin kick:
Core Power: Stop isolating your legs. The entire butterfly movement needs to start from your center.
The Rhythm: Press your chest down into the water and aggressively pop your hips up.
The Whip: Let that energy travel smoothly down your legs and allow your loose ankles to snap at the very end like a whip!
