PART 2 - Using the Vasa Ergometer
METERS AND PACE CALCULATIONS IN THE MONITOR
The Vasa Ergometer Monitor simulates the performance of the athlete by measuring the force (many
times per second) during a stroke and powering a model through the water using that information.
During each increment the monitor calculates the distance covered (swimmer/kayaker depending on

shows that total distance. The monitor also keeps track of the distance and time at the start of each
stroke and uses this information to calculate the average pace during that stroke. Pace is displayed in the

NOTE: Pace and distance accumulated are calculated to approximate the pace and distance. For
swimmers it is calculated without a start or turns, while “pulling” with a pullbuoy (similar to open water
swimming).
