π Your Garmin/Coros says youβre "Productive"... but are you actually getting faster?
Most triathletes / open water swimmers finish a swim set and look at a screen full of SWOLF, Heart Rate, and "Training Effect" scores.
But if I asked you right now: "What was your stroke rate on your 3rd interval, and did your pace drop when your tempo changed?"... could you answer?
Most can't. Because the watch is a distraction, not a coach. This Wednesday, we are killing the "noise."

Heart Rate (Usually a guess in the water) β€οΈ
I just look at the total distance and hope for the best πββοΈ
