To perform a flutter kick correctly, start by lying on your back with your arms at your sides and your legs extended. Then, lift your legs off the ground and begin to kick your feet up and down in a quick, alternating motion. Make sure to keep your legs straight and your toes pointed. Keep your core engaged and your back flat against the ground. Aim to keep your legs at least 6 inches off the ground and keep your kicks going for 30 seconds.
