EO SwimBETTER Deep Dive (swim assessment, .docx upload)

What this assessment is

The EO SwimBETTER Deep Dive is a swim assessment built around the .docx auto-report produced by an EO SwimBETTER pod session. The Hub's parser reads the report, creates an Assessment record, writes the metric values to MetricHistory, and flags technical errors against EO's internal targets.

Domain: swim. Linked calculator: none (parser populates the outputs directly).

How to log

1. Run the EO SwimBETTER session in the pool with the pod and sensors.
2. Download the .docx auto-report from EO.
3. In the Hub, open the athlete's profile and click EO swim upload, or navigate to /athlete/<public_id>/eo-swim-upload/.
4. Pick the test distance category (e.g. 100, 200, 400, 800, 1500, other) so the parser knows how to interpret the metrics.
5. Drop the .docx file.
6. Confirm the parsed values look right and save.

What the parser does

• Extracts EO metrics from the report (force, stroke efficiency, catch metrics, kick contribution, etc.).
• Creates an Assessment row of type EO SwimBETTER Deep Dive with the metrics in outputs.
• Writes each metric to MetricHistory so it shows up on the athlete's swim analytics page over time.
• Flags any technical errors against EO's published targets (e.g. force imbalance left vs right).

What you see after upload

• The athlete's recent EO sessions list on the right side of the upload page.
• The full parsed metrics on the new assessment record.
• Any flagged errors highlighted on the swim dashboard for coach review.

When to use this

EO SwimBETTER produces dense data per session. Use it for technique development blocks and as a periodic check (monthly to quarterly). It is not a substitute for a CSS test (which sets pace zones); the two assessments measure different things.
