Stopwatch Laps Explained
Laps let one running stopwatch capture smaller segments without resetting the overall elapsed time.
Lap duration
Lap duration is the time since the previous lap. The first lap begins at the stopwatch start.
Overall elapsed time
Overall elapsed time keeps increasing across every lap until the stopwatch is paused or reset.
When laps help
Use laps for repeated drills, workout sets, practice rounds or comparing stages of a longer task.
