Rating a workout and reading the score

Finishing a workout costs you one more answer: how hard it felt. What comes back is a score out of 115, split into how much of the plan you did and how it compares with your own history.

Step 1. Rate the effort

The sheet asks for one number: how hard the whole session felt, 1 to 10. Drag the handle along the ramp and the sheet warms with it, cool blue at the bottom through to red at the top.

Feeling and Notes are both optional. Pick the word for how you came out of it, write down anything you want to read back later, and Complete workout saves the session.

The ? beside the number holds the scale: 1 to 3 easy, 4 to 6 moderate, 7 to 8 hard, 9 to 10 all-out.

Step 2. See how it compares

Saving the workout lands the summary and slides a comparison up over it. The boxed rows are this session read against the last time you ran the workout and against your own 30-day average, one comparison to a sentence.

2 development areas keeps the other half folded. Tap it and the sheet grows to show where volume went backwards, written the same plain way as the wins. Continue closes the comparison and puts you back on the summary.

The rows cover weight-based exercises only, and a session where you logged under three quarters of the plan gets an account of what you did instead.

  • You stacked up when something moved
  • You held the line when the numbers match
  • Baseline set on the first run of a workout

The rows need at least Lite. On the free plan the sheet still arrives with your real numbers in it, blurred behind See it with Lite or Pro.

Step 3. Read the score, and its two halves

Performance score is the headline, and the two numbers under it are the explanation. Execution is how much of the plan you actually did. Progression is this session measured against your own last three on those exercises.

That is why the scale runs to 115 rather than 100. Matching your own baseline is 100 and beating it goes over. Until an exercise has three sessions behind it there is nothing to match, and progression reads building baseline.

The ring is coloured by the score: red under 60, amber to 89, green to 100, orange above. Orange means you beat your own baseline.

Step 4. What the numbers under the ring mean

Three cards sit under the ring. Volume is every kilo you moved on counted sets, so warm-ups and failure sets are left out. BDYCharge is what the session earned toward your level. Duration is the clock that ran while you trained.

Your breakdown goes an exercise at a time, and the ? beside it explains the reading. The bar and the number are that exercise's execution. The caption under the name is its progression: baseline 1 of 3 counts down to three logged sessions, and new exercise is your first.

  • Only the sets you marked complete reach the bar
  • A dash means there was no plan to measure against
  • A removed exercise counts in the score, not in the list

The breakdown needs at least Lite. The score, both halves of it and the three cards are on the free plan.

Step 5. Share it, or close it

Share your workout opens an editor rather than the iOS share sheet. Swipe between the layouts, pick a background, and the card is built with your score, your volume and the workout's name on it.

Share composes the image on your phone and hands it to iOS, so nothing goes through us on the way. Done on the summary closes the workout and puts you back on Home.

The + swatch at the start of the background row puts the card over a photo from your camera roll.
