Swim Smooth Stroke Rate Ramp Test: Find Your Stroke Efficiency Sweet Spots

[@neilgiles6880]

What is also noticeable is Riaz's kick efficiency and body position improves as the stroke rate increases

[@swimbearuk]

I was wondering what the swimmer does with the information following this test? If I do the test, and I manage to find a sweet spot between efficiency and effort/time, then do I use that setting when swimming mid distance freestyle sets, or will I probably have to dial it back a bit to avoid blowing a gasket fairly quickly? Can I rely on the results to use for a tough freestyle session, or will I just have to experiment with what I can do, and make gradual improvements?

How do use this for the other strokes?

That's an excellent video with remarkable results. I was wondering if the stroke test is repeated periodically in case something changes - if so often?

How can you ise this test for other strokes?

there's something funny about the way his body moves thru the water, like his body is weaving thru the water and not going in a straight line. Anybody see something a bit strange ?

@ms9173468250 The thingy probably weighs about 50 grams or even less so I highly doubt you will even notice it, besides the "beep"

These days you'd be using www.finisinc.com/Tempo-Trainer-Pro and indeed, one doesn't notice it under the cap. Also nice is that one can start/stop and adjust the rate without taking in out (through the silicone).
