good question. If we, as humans, were faster on our side or stomach, we would see all swimmers dolphin kick one way or the other. So we tend to have the same speed, if the same technique is used. We like to practice dolphin kicking in many ways, but on the side allows you to feel kicking evenly in both directions. Check out this short vid: http://www.theraceclub.com/...fifth-stroke-part-1/
We call dolphin kicking the Fifth Stroke because it is now used in all strokes. We think it can be used in triathlon races too when the conditions call for it. It's also a great whole body exercise for training.
