SWIMMING SIMPLIFIED.
SCISSOR KICK OF LEGS IS MERELY ONE LEG MOVING UP, OTHER DOWN,
All crawl stroke swimming leg drives are the combination of the so-called scissor kick, which can best be described as a front and back opening and closing of the legs. One leg moves up as the other moves down, each going all the time without stop or pause.
A good way to practice the leg thrash is to lie face down- ward in the shallow water, hands on bottom, or if you are in a swimming pool hold onto the side of the pool, with the legs straight out.
Practice thrashing them up and down. Have the knees straight, but let the legs relax somewhat. The feet should be separated about six or eight inches.
Start slowly at first, until you master a steady and even thrash.
Practice until you can quicken the kick, until you are able to churn the water considerable.
Your only real care or worry is to see that the legs are set in motion before the arms and to see that they follow closely the back and forth roll of the body.
