Setting the Tempo Trainer for Pacing
Take advantage of Mode 2 and set the Tempo
Trainer for longer goal pacing.
If you have a goal pace time of 1 minute per 100,
then you can set the Tempo Trainer to triple-
beep every minute. Or, breaking it down further,
you can set the device to triple-beep every 15
seconds so that you can hear if you are ahead or
behind your goal pace at every 25 distance.
Pacing Swim Set Example
6 x 100’s on a short-rest interval
1)
Set the Tempo Trainer in Mode 2 at your
ideal pacing setting per 25. So if your goal
pace is 1:08 per 100 distance, set the
Tempo Trainer at 0:17. The device will
triple-beep every 17 seconds, which
corresponds with your 25 split times.
2)
Before starting each 100, listen for the
Tempo Trainer to give the triple-beep. As
soon as you hear the next triple-beep,
send off and start the swim.
3)
Descend your time on each of the 100’s.
Getting faster from 1-6.
Tip:
At every 25, listen to hear if you are ahead
or behind your goal pace.
