Swimming has always been an analogue sport for me. Every time I hit my local pool, I’ve done so without a sports watch strapped to my wrist or even any music playing in my ears. That’s largely to switch off — I barely remember to count the lengths I’ve done before heading to the sauna. But because of this approach, my swimming prowess has stagnated for years.
Much like embracing progressive overload when weight training or keeping a close eye on pace during a 10K, having accountability is key to achieving better results. To that end, I strapped on a pair of the FORM Swim Goggles to see how my performance in the pool holds up.
