Triplet Crotchets

I keep time by swaying left foot, right foot, left foot, right foot. That is one bar of 4 crotchets. Then a triplet of crotchets becomes left foot, just before right foot, just after right foot. Of course that doesn't automatically get the intervals even.
 
I think of them in swing terms, as in doo = 2/3 of a beat and da 1/3 of a beat. So triplet over 1 beat, being note split into three 1/3 so played da da da and over 2 beats doo doo doo.

I also found it hard to tap/clap out the beat and play triplet crotchets. However using this method again but change slightly to “doo da da doo”, with the second da, not played but is on the beat and foot tap.

Hope that makes sense.
