The Tempo Trainer Pro is really effective in setting up my ideal stroke rate
in the water. What makes it even better, is that I also get to use it while
running to set up the perfect rulons.
—HENRI SCHOEMAN, 2016 OLYMPIC BRONZE MEDALIST
I love using the Tempo Trainer Pro, it is a great way for me to reset my
stroke count and make sure I am working at the correct pace. When I am
having a tough training set it really helps me maintain the focus on pace
and stroke count, so I can maximize my workout.
—NICK GRAINGER, 2015 WORLD CHAMPION
Since the origin of the FINIS Tempo Trainer Pro, the device has been an
integral part of our swimmers’ development. We use the TTP on a daily
basis, for all groups and levels, to help our swimmers become much
more intelligent and aware of their stroke rates. By utilizing the TTP in
conjunction with stroke counts and splits, coaches can achieve dramatic
results with higher quality training in a very cost-effective manner.
