Special workout modes – swimming
Workout terms
Trip: Refers to the lane length in pool swimming mode.
Stroke: Refers to a complete stroke motion while you are wearing the watch.
Stroke rate: Refers to the number of strokes per minute.
DPS: Refers to the distance of a complete stroke.
SWOLF: It is an important indicator of swimming scores, which comprehensively
evaluates your swimming speed. SWOLF in pool swimming mode = Duration of a
single lap (in seconds) + Number of strokes in a single lap. In open-water
swimming mode, SWOLF is calculated using a lap distance of 100 meters. A
smaller SWOLF score indicates higher swimming efficiency.
Stroke Recognition
The watch recognizes strokes in swimming modes and displays the main stroke you use.
Stroke Type | Definition |
---|---|
Freestyle | Freestyle stroke |
Breaststroke | Breaststroke |
Backstroke | Backstroke |
Butterfly | Butterfly |
Medley | More than one stroke is used when swimming, with each stroke in a |
similar proportion
Touch Screen During Swimming
To protect the touch screen from unintentional touches and water interference, the watch automatically disables the touch screen function after you start swimming. In such cases, you can control the workout with the watch buttons. After the workout ends, the watch reactivates the touch screen function.
Workout GPS positioning
If you select Outdoor workouts, wait until GPS positioning is successful on the Workout preparation screen. Then, tap GO to begin the workout. This allows the watch to record complete workout data and prevents data inaccuracy due to workout tracking loss. Positioning guide:
1. If you receive a prompt to update the AGPS after selecting a workout,
start the Zepp app on your phone and connect it with the watch to update AGPS.
Then, select a workout again. This operation reduces the time spent searching
for a signal and avoids search failure.
2. If, during the positioning process, the GPS signal icon continues to
flicker, an open area can offer you faster positioning for a better GPS
signal, as nearby buildings may block and weaken the signal, extending the
positioning time and even causing positioning failure.
3. After successful positioning, the GO button is highlighted. The GPS signal
shows the current GPS signal strength.
AGPS is a kind of GPS satellite orbit information which helps the watch accelerate the GPS positioning process.
Automatic Workout Identification
Workout types that can be identified include walking, indoor walking, outdoor
running, treadmill, outdoor cycling, pool swimming, elliptical trainer, and
rowing machine. Automatic workout identification is a process where the watch
automatically determines the workout type and records a single workout after
related workout characteristics are compiled with and your workout continues
for a period.
You can set this in Settings > Workouts > Workout Detection.
Type: After you select a workout type, the automatic identification function is enabled for the workout.
Reminder: When the feature is enabled, a pop-up dialog box is displayed when a workout is identified or ends. When the feature is disabled, data is recorded silently upon workout identification and a dynamic icon is displayed on the watch face screen.
Sensitivity: Higher sensitivity indicates a shorter identification time. Identification time is prolonged if the sensitivity is low. Set as required.
- Continuous workout status monitoring will greatly reduce the battery life. When no workout is selected, the workout identification function is not enabled. If the watch detects an ongoing workout, some data cannot be synchronized with the app.
Workout history
When a workout ends, the workout record will automatically be saved to the Activities app. If you end the workout when the workout time is too short, the watch will ask you whether to save it. Due to the limited storage space, it is recommended that you synchronize the workout data to the app soon after completing a workout; otherwise, the workout data may be overwritten.

Activities
Physical indicators for workouts
The watch provides a variety of physical indicators for workouts. You can use
evaluation scores as a reference for your workouts. These indicators can be
viewed in workout records or the Workout status app, including current
training load, total recovery time, VO2max, and training effect.
You can find a detailed explanation of current training load, total recovery
time, and VO2max in the Workout Status app.
TE
Training Effect (TE) is an indicator for measuring the effect of a workout on improving the aerobic capacity. When you work out while wearing the watch, the TE score starts from 0.0 and increases as the workout progresses. The TE score ranges from 0.0 to 5.0, and different score ranges indicate different effects. A higher TE score indicates a greater workout intensity. It signifies a higher body load, but a better TE. However, you should consider whether your body load is too high when the TE score reaches 5.0.
Aerobic TE Score | Effect on Improving Aerobic Capacity |
---|---|
0.0 – 0.9 | This workout has no effect on improving aerobic capacity. |
1.0-1.9 | This workout helps improve endurance and is ideal for post-workout |
recovery training.
2.0-2.9| This workout helps maintain aerobic capacity.
3.0 – 3.9| This workout significantly helps improve aerobic capacity.
4.0 – 4.9| This workout remarkably improves heart-lung ability and aerobic
capacity.
5| Post-workout recovery is required for non-athlete users.
Anaerobic TE Score | Effect on Improving Anaerobic Capacity |
---|---|
0.0 – 0.9 | This workout has no effect on improving anaerobic capacity. |
1.0-1.9 | This workout has a slight effect on improving anaerobic capacity. |
2.0-2.9 | This workout helps maintain anaerobic capacity. |
3.0 – 3.9 | This workout significantly helps improve anaerobic capacity. |
4.0 – 4.9 | This workout has a significant effect on improving anaerobic |
capacity.
5| Post-workout recovery is required for non-athlete users.
The TE score is evaluated based on your profile, as well as your heart rate and speed during your workout. A low TE score does not indicate a problem during your workout, but instead signifies that the workout is too easy and has no significant effect on improving aerobic capacity (for example, a low TE score for 1-hour of jogging).
How is it obtained?
Once a workout for which heart rate data is monitored ends, the watch displays the TE score of the workout and provides related comments or suggestions. You can also review the TE score of each workout record in the future.
Workout status
Workout status includes current training load, total recovery time, and VO2max. These indicators are determined based on your profile and other data such as heart rate. As the watch continues to understand and analyze your body and workout data, the accuracy of evaluation scores gradually improves.
VO2max
VO2max indicates the amount of oxygen consumed by the body during maximum- intensity workouts, which is an important indicator of the body’s aerobic capacity. As one of the most important reference indicator for endurance athletes, high-level VO2max is the prerequisite for high-level aerobic capacity.
VO2max is a relatively personal indicator, which has different reference standards for users with different genders and in different age groups. The watch evaluates your athletic capacity based on your profile and the heart rate and speed during your workouts. Also, VO2max changes with your athletic capacity. However, everyone has a VO2max value, which varies by individual body conditions.
How is it obtained?
1. Correctly enter your profile in the app.
2. Run outdoors for at least 10 minutes when wearing the watch and ensure
that your heart rate reaches 75% of the maximum heart rate.
3. After the run ends, you can view your current VO2max in the watch’s
workout record app or on the See more statuses screen.
4. VO2max scores map seven athletic ability levels.
How can I view it?
You can view the current VO2max in the watch’s workout status app.
You can also view the VO2max history and variation trends in the app.
Training Load
The watch calculates the training load based on excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) scores over the past seven days to evaluate your workout volume. You can adjust your subsequent training schedule based on your training load score range.
You can view your historical training load and change trends in the app.
Total recovery time
Total recovery time is the recommended time for the complete recovery of the body. After each workout, recovery suggestions will be offered based on the heart rate of the latest workout to help you better recover and reasonably arrange your workout to avoid injury.
Full Recovery Period | Workout Suggestions |
---|---|
0-18 hours | You have fully or nearly fully recovered, and you can do slightly |
higher-intensity training.
19-35 hours| You can train as usual and you can prepare to strengthen your
regimen again.
36-53 hours| Appropriately reducing the intensity of your training will allow
you to gain workout benefits from your last training, and you should do
recovery workouts to relieve physical fatigue.
54-96 hours| Proper rest will allow you to get the benefits of the workout
from your last high-intensity training.
