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. Swolf is a measurement of swimming efficiency and, like
golf, a lower score is better.
