Kicking Drill 3: Kicking on Your Front

The next drill for building an effective breaststroke kick involves transferring the back kick from the neutral position to the front. Remember, once your heels are close to your hips, rotate your heels out so that they are wider than your knees, then sweep them together. Your lower legs and feet should be dorsiflexed or in an L position. Squeeze your ankles together and point your toes while finishing the kick. Do this drill first with your hands at your sides for balance, then switch to a streamlined position. Repeat the same motion until you are comfortable with it.

To Increase Difficulty

Stay in a streamlined position.

Place a pull buoy between your legs, slightly above mid-thigh, to ensure that your knees stay together.
