I have not used or heard "throttle or chill" I guess they would mean faster & slower. As far as what to do with the speed is dependent on the fastest you can to swim & then slow down to recover. Would you use this in open water swims?? Well, although I've been swimming for fitness (triathlon, open water events, etc) since the late 80s...I'm only new to swimming with a group and/or written pool workouts. So...I can't say for sure. But I agree..."throttle" must be at or close to max effort while "chill" is probably a recover pace. Dan

I don't have access to that link because I'm not a USMS paying member. But, I understand the "base" explanation. Do you know if that list gives any indication as to the prescribed effort for "throttle" and "chill"? Dan
