Freestyle Kicking | Lesson 3 | Common Kicking Mistakes

Flutter kicking is unlike kicking during any activity on land. Although all kicking actions originate at your hips and travel down your leg to your foot, the kicking action in the water is much smaller and tighter. This is particularly true about your knee’s range of motion. In contrast, kicking a ball feels like a predominantly knee-driven action, but kicking from your knees while swimming is problematic. #swimming #freestyleswimming
