I note what I do when I paddle trying to determine if I am following all
the rules.  Looks good, but do I paddle the same when I am not observing?
What do I really do?

A few years back, MIT was recording peddeling techniques used by young,
active racers.  Pressure transducers were attached to top and bottom of
both feet.  Prior to the tests the racers were asked to estimate the
percentage of peddeling effort delivered by the pull up on the toe clips.
Estimates varied between ten and fifty percent.  The transducers indicated
a positivre pressure on the bottom of both feet for all racers while
peddeling.
