SWIMMING METRICS
Swimming metrics help you analyze each swimming session, and follow your performance and progress
in the long run.
To get the most accurate information, make sure your have set which hand you wear your watch on.
You can check that you’ve set which hand you wear your watch from the product settings in Flow.
POOL SWIMMING
When using the Swimming or Pool swimming profile, the watch records your swim distance, time and
pace, stroke rate, rest times and also identifies your swimming style. In addition, with the help of the
SWOLF score you can keep track of your development.
Pace and Distance:The pace and distance measurements are based on pool length, therefore to get
accurate data always make sure you have set the correct pool length. Your watch recognizes when you
turn, and uses this information to give you accurate pace and distance.
Strokes:Your watch tells you how many strokes you take in a minute or per pool length. This
information can be used to find out more about your swimming technique, rhythm and timing.
Swimming Styles: Your watch recognizes your swimming style, and calculates style specific metrics as
well as totals for your whole session. Styles the watch recognizes:
l Freestyle
l Backstroke
l Breaststroke
l Butterfly
SWOLF (short for swimming and golf) is an indirect measure of efficiency. SWOLF is calculated by adding
together your time and the amount of strokes it takes you to swim a pool length. For instance, 30
seconds and 10 strokes to swim the length of a pool will equal a SWOLF score of 40. Generally, the lower
your SWOLF is for a certain distance and style, the more efficient you are.
SWOLF is highly individual, and thus should not be compared to SWOLF scores other people have swam.
It’s rather a personal tool that can help you improve and fine-tune your technique, and find an optimal
efficiency for different styles.
POOL LENGTH SETTING
It’s important that you choose the correct pool length, as it affects pace, distance and stroke calculation,
as well as your SWOLF score. You can choose the pool length in pre-training mode from the quick menu.
