User Manual

Welcome to SWIM ANALYSIS + SwimClub PRO, a complete professional platform for swimming performance analysis and team management. This platform is designed for coaches, analysts, club managers, and swimmers who want to record, analyze, and optimize performance through detailed tracking and advanced management tools.

The platform consists of two integrated modules:

• SWIM ANALYSIS — Individual swimmer performance analysis featuring SwimAnalytics Pro (per-lap competition analysis with 9 interactive charts, session recording with split times, stroke rate, underwater distance, DPS calculations, Excel/PDF export, and side-by-side session comparison), plus progress tracking, race simulation (What If), training zone calculation, multi-swimmer stopwatch, and season planning with macrocycle/mesocycle periodization.
• SwimClub PRO — Multi-club team management with role-based access for admins and coaches, group/team organization, structured training plans with AI-powered workout parsing, daily attendance tracking with volume credits, individual swimmer profiles, and comprehensive PDF reporting.

This manual will guide you through all the functionalities of both modules and explain how to get the most out of the entire platform.

SwimAnalytics Pro is a web-based swimming performance analysis application designed for coaches, analysts, and technical staff. It allows you to record, visualize, and export competition data on a per-lap basis, including split times, stroke rate, underwater distance, and derived metrics such as velocity and DPS (distance per stroke cycle).

The application features four main sections accessible from a fixed sidebar navigation:

• Dashboard — Full visualization with 9 interactive charts
• New Entry — Per-lap data entry form for competition sessions
• History — Manage all recorded sessions with export options
• Compare — Side-by-side performance analysis between sessions

Key Concepts

The Dashboard is the main screen of the system. It displays a complete analysis of the selected session, including key metrics and 9 interactive charts.

Filter Bar

At the top of the Dashboard you will find a filter bar to select which session to analyze:

Summary Metrics

Below the filter bar, 4 metric cards display the most important statistics:

Analysis Charts (9 Charts)

The Dashboard includes 9 charts arranged in a 2-column grid, each showing a different performance dimension:

How to read the charts: X-axis shows laps (L1, L2, L3...). Y-axis shows the metric value. In dual-axis charts (SR vs Velocity), left Y-axis is red for SR and right Y-axis is blue for velocity.

Exporting Charts as PNG Images

Every chart has a "Download PNG" button in its top-right corner. Clicking it downloads a white-background PNG image of that chart, ready for reports or presentations.

The "New Entry" section lets you input data for a competition session. The form has two parts: general session information and a per-lap data table.

Session Information

Complete these fields before entering per-lap data (* = required):

Lap Table — 25-Meter Pool

For a 25m pool, each lap has a 15m section and a 10m section, and one SR value is recorded. Number of laps = Distance / 25.

Lap Table — 50-Meter Pool

For a 50m pool, each lap has a single 25m section, and two SR values are recorded (one for each half). Number of laps = Distance / 50.

Automatic Calculations

• 25m pool: Lap Time = Sec 15m + Sec 10m
• 50m pool: Lap Time = Section 25m
• Any pool: Swim Time = Lap Time - Underwater Time
• 50m pool: SR Avg. = (SR1 + SR2) / 2

Saving the Session

Once you have filled in the data, click the "Save Session" button (red, bottom-right):

1. Automatic validation — The system checks that required fields (Swimmer, Date, Pool, Distance) are complete
2. Toast confirmation — A green notification appears: "Session saved successfully"
3. Auto-redirect — The system navigates to the Dashboard with the newly saved swimmer pre-selected

The History section shows all sessions saved in the system, from most recent to oldest.

History Table

Use the "All swimmers" dropdown at the top right to filter by a specific swimmer.

Export to Excel

The "Export Excel" button generates an .xlsx file with all session data:

Export Dashboard to PDF

The "Export PDF" button generates a 2-page formatted report with charts and data table:

1. Selection modal opens — A dialog with two dropdowns: Swimmer and Session
2. Select swimmer — Choose from the first dropdown (pre-selected if filtered)
3. Select session — Choose the specific session (date + event + tournament)
4. Generate PDF — Click "Generate PDF". A progress screen appears while charts render (10-30 seconds)

PDF Document Structure:

The "Compare" section lets you analyze two sessions simultaneously on the same charts. You can compare two sessions from the same swimmer (to track progress) or two different swimmers (for team analysis).

How to Use

1. Select Swimmer A — In the left card (marked in red), use the dropdown to select the first session. Format: Name — distance stroke pool (date) time.
2. Select Swimmer B — In the right card (marked in blue), select the second session to compare.
3. Automatic visualization — Once both sessions are selected, 6 comparative charts appear automatically.
4. Read the color coding — Session A is always shown in RED. Session B in BLUE dashed line.

Comparative Charts

SwimAnalytics Pro automatically calculates several metrics from the entered data:

Lap Time

• 25m pool: Lap Time = Sec 15m + Sec 10m
• 50m pool: Lap Time = Section 25m

Calculated in real time when section times are entered. Total wall-to-wall duration of the lap.

Swim Time

Swim Time = Lap Time - Underwater Time

Time spent stroking at the surface, excluding the underwater glide phase after start or turn.

Velocity per Lap

Velocity (m/s) = Pool Length / Lap Time

• 25m example: V = 25 / 16.45 = 1.520 m/s
• 50m example: V = 50 / 28.45 = 1.758 m/s

Average SR — 50m Pool

SR Avg. = (SR1 + SR2) / 2

Where SR1 = stroke rate at 0-25m, SR2 = stroke rate at 25-50m.

DPS — Distance Per Stroke

DPS (m/cyc) = Velocity (m/s) x 60 / SR (cyc/min)

Equivalent to: DPS = Pool Length / SC (if SC is known)

Example: DPS = 1.758 x 60 / 38.5 = 2.74 m/cyc

A higher DPS at the same SR indicates greater technical efficiency.

Velocity per Section

• 25m pool — 15m section: V_15 = 15 / Sec_15m
• 25m pool — 10m section: V_10 = 10 / Sec_10m
• 50m pool — 0-25m section: V_1 = 25 / Sec_25m
• 50m pool — 25-50m section: V_2 = 25 / (Lap Time - Sec_25m - UW Time)

Total Session Time

Total Time = Sum(all lap times) + Reaction Time

Official event time: the sum of all lap times plus the reaction time at the start.
