CSS Calculation

Wondering how I calculate my CSS from the 400 and 50 times. Thanks

Hi @Muta. Please send me your times via DM and I’ll calculate and update for you. The ability to calculate and update is in development. As well, we can’t yet automate this threshold determination like we do with running and cycling because the swim pace measurement on the watches isn’t precise enough yet, so we still need to do old fashion stopwatch work for now to test for accuracy and zone calibrations.
Best,
Paul

400 yds in 5:27 and the 50 yds in :33

You’re quick! 1:24 and can see it was already set that way in your threshold settings.

Hey @Swimfast

Based on your test times, your css is 1:46 min/100m. I have updated your swim threshold and yes, your swim zones will changes accordingly. In the future you can insert new thresholds on your settings - training - thresholds :pray::smile:

Happy training,

Wanting to check my CSS calculation after the CSS test this morning - I think the program has missed the critical laps.

In the 1500m sett I sawm 7:40.4 for the 400m and 45secs for the 50m. Using the calculations on the athletica website (D1-D2/T1-T2) I get a CSS of 1:58/100.

The AI prompted me to update my thresholds to 2:24 after the test. When I log in however it still has my old CSS of 2:10.

Is that correct?

Thanks

Hi @Wombat … there are still some issues with the swimming sync for thresholds so I have adjusted your threshold manually in your zone settings (Overview).
