OK Im a below average novice age group swimmer , my pool 100's are 2min -215 pace during workouts Ive built up my endurance swimming and doing my first 70.3 in May Santa Rosa
Im just looking to not finish in the bottom5-15percent i know lol
I noticed a lot of pros stop kicking at end of swims to save their legs
Based on my speed is it worth the effort of the kick vs the tiredness felt on the bike?
It feels like my kick in the water just tires my legs without making me a whole lot faster
Will this change as I progress in swimming Ive only been in the pool for two months and an adult onset
swimmer forgot to add im a string bean at 5'5 133lbs swimming with roka sim buoyancy trunks to keep my hips higher I know wetsuit will help tremendously too
Any feedback appreciated
