Backstroke kicks with arms sideward the body and hands under gluteus

ADDITIONAL EXERCISE for kicks, when we have troubles with body position on the surface. During the performance we focus on:

  • feet we need to extend and turn inwards,
  • leg extension in knees when finishing the kick,
  • appropriate amplitude and frequency of the kicks,
  • appropriate depth of the kicks so knees get only right underneath the surface and that we make bubbles with feet

                                           and

  • extended body position with hips right underneath the surface,
  • fixed head position on the surface in the body extension,
  • breathing in rythm through the mouth.
