Quick guide
How to use this calculator
- Enter measurements from one real session, race, test or equipment setup.
- Keep distances, timing methods, course conditions and equipment conventions consistent.
- Use the component results to audit the arithmetic and retain the stated limitation.
Calculation method
Calculation method
Underwater shares divide segment distance and time by totals; surface residuals subtract the entered underwater segment.
Results describe only the entered record or scenario. They do not establish fitness, readiness, injury risk, medical safety, selection, qualification or an appropriate training plan.
Worked example
Worked example
Twenty underwater metres in ten seconds of a 100 m, 60-second swim is 20% of distance and 16.67% of time.
Underwater shares divide segment distance and time by totals; surface residuals subtract the entered underwater segment.

Precision and limits
Measurement basis
Compare like with like: the same course, pool, equipment, timing convention or testing protocol where that distinction affects meaning.
No prescription
Heart-rate percentages, external load, activity intensity and workload are entered arithmetic. This page does not prescribe training or determine whether exercise is medically appropriate.
Privacy and precision
Values remain in this browser. Invalid, contradictory and non-finite states return explicit errors.
Calculator-specific boundary
This is entered-performance arithmetic, not training, medical, injury-risk, selection or fitness-for-duty advice.
