Kicking on your side is a great way to strengthen core muscles and emphasize the importance of staying straight in the water.

Swimming on your side forces your legs to meet more resistance than swimming on your stomach and results in stronger, more efficient kicks. Doing this drill with an Endless Pools Swim Current causes even more resistance and creates a need for consistency with the swimmer – effectively teaching the swimmer how to become a more consistent kicker.

Coach Dominic’s narration and to-the-point scientific approach allows swimmers to learn safely and efficiently about different strokes that will better their swimming technique. Drills such as this one are fantastic for more efficient swimming.

SwimBox was able to film this stroke using their commercial Endless Pool in their own swim studio.
