I don't think its bad advise...

I haven't read the thread spoken about above, but wouldn't make sense that you either are pushing more water or less water?

The way I think physics work is if you peddled two different sets of fins, (one tight and one loose ) at the same pace the tighter fins would move more water than the loose fins.

Now in my albeit small brain, its logical that that tighter fins would require you to spend more energy. The loose fins would require you to peddle more times to move the same amount of water as the tighter fins. So it turns out to be less reps but harder or more reps but easier. Your pick!

I'll stay with the middle of the road in this case.
