Using fins with a kick board worth it? I remember using fins a lot when trainning when club swimming I'm older and fatter now but will it increase leg strength when kicking? I have a tendency to forget to kick my legs if i don't think about it (taking freestyle).


will this be effective in a 12m pool? :/

    12 metre pools pretty small.
    Fins are definitely worth it for getting your legs stronger and I found they made me work them (legs) as I was more aware of them.
    I think they're great.

    Killing the legs is a sign that they're working :-)

    Very good for the ankles too I have weak joints so hoping to strengthen them 10 minutes with a kick board and they are about ready to fall off
