Swimming

NOTICE

The device is intended for surface swimming. Scuba diving with

the device may damage the product and will void the warranty.

NOTE: The device cannot record wrist heart rate data while

swimming.

Swim Terminology

Length: One trip down the pool.

Interval: One or more consecutive lengths. A new interval starts

after a rest.

Stroke: A stroke is counted every time your arm wearing the

device completes a full cycle.

Swolf: Your swolf score is the sum of the time for one pool

length and the number of strokes for that length. For

example, 30 seconds plus 15 strokes equals a swolf score of

45. For open water swimming, swolf is calculated over 25

meters. Swolf is a measurement of swimming efficiency and,

like golf, a lower score is better.

Stroke Types

Stroke type identification is available only for pool swimming.

Your stroke type is identified at the end of a length. Stroke types

appear when you are viewing interval history. You can also

select stroke type as a custom data field (Customizing the Data

Screens, page 26).

Free Freestyle

Back Backstroke

Breast Breaststroke

Fly Butterfly

Mixed More than one stroke type in an interval

Drill Used with drill logging (Training with the Drill Log, page 4)

Tips for Swimming Activities

settings, and select Pool Size to change the size.

The device automatically records swim intervals and lengths

for pool swimming.

swimming.

Resting During Pool Swimming

The default rest screen displays two rest timers. It also displays

time and distance for the last completed interval.

NOTE: Swim data is not recorded during a rest.

During your swim activity, select LAP to start a rest.

The display reverses to white text on a black background,

and the rest screen appears.

During a rest, select UP or DOWN to view other data screens

(optional).

Select LAP, and continue swimming.

Repeat for additional rest intervals.

Training with the Drill Log

The drill log feature is available only for pool swimming. You can

use the drill log feature to manually record kick sets, one-arm

swimming, or any type of swimming that is not one of the four

major strokes.

During your pool swim activity, select UP or DOWN to view

the drill log screen.

Select LAP to start the drill timer.

After you complete a drill interval, select LAP.

The drill timer stops, but the activity timer continues to record

the entire swim session.

Select a distance for the completed drill.

Distance increments are based on the pool size selected for

the activity profile.

Select an option:

• To start another drill interval, select LAP.

• To start a swim interval, select UP or DOWN to return to

the swim training screens.
