 Michelle's Fitness Level is 55 and her highest category is 77 in Long MetCon. Level-Up Your FitnessGet ready for our September BTWB Fitness Level Challenge! This is a fun challenge that might transform your motivation and commitment to your fitness. What is the Beyond The Whiteboard Fitness Level? Here is the lowdown directly from Beyond the Whiteboard. Your Overall Fitness Level is a relative measure of Fitness, meaning it compares your performance to the rest of the community. A Fitness Level of 77 means you are more Fit than roughly 77% of the community. As athletes everywhere continue to improve, it will become harder and harder to stay in front of the curve. Your Overall Fitness Level is determined by averaging your performance across 8 different categories. For each of these categories you will receive a Category Level. Fitness Level Categories The categories include Power Lifts and Olympic Lifts, which are determined by your average levels of those respective lifts. The Speed category looks at your average levels for Shorter Runs and Rows (100m to 1000m), while the Endurance category looks at Longer Runs and Rows (1000m to 10km). There are also four Conditioning/MetCon Categories. We have divided Benchmark workouts and other popular workouts into four different categories. The first three include Bodyweight, Light, and Heavy workouts, all 20 minutes and under. The Long category includes workouts where the average time to completion is greater than 20 minutes. By combining your levels in these 8 categories, we get a very broad measure of your overall Fitness. There is a specific list of Workouts and Movements that are used in calculating your Fitness Level. These workouts must be done as Rx'd (not modified) in order to receive a level for that workout. If you don't have any qualifying results for a category, you won't have a level for that category. Modified workouts do not receive a level. At this point, there is no acceptable method for comparing differently scaled workouts (that doesn't mean we haven't been trying, or that we're giving up...) Modified workout results are all put below Rx'd results when calculating levels. It's a standard practice across our community that someone who completes a workout Rx'd automatically beats someone who scales, even though sometimes the scaled time might be considered a better performance. We realize this is not always true, but looking through the data, we discovered the exceptions were pretty rare and not statistically significant. We only consider your best score/time/lift over the Last 6 Months. We don't look at your awesome Fran from 4 years ago, because it doesn't tell us very much about what you are capable of currently. Conversely, if you are sick, having a bad day, taking it easy, etc., we will not hold that against you. As long as you have a better performance on that workout/lift in the last 6 months, your level will not go down. You will have a little time to redeem yourself while that older result is still within the 6 month window. We automatically pull in Power Lifts and Olympic Lifts from lifting workouts, so you don't have to do a specific 1RM workout to get credit. We also pull in run and row intervals (e.g. 4 x 400m runs) if they are your fastest, and use them for your Speed and Endurance Categories. By drilling down to the Category Pages (Analyze > Fitness Level > Bodyweight, e.g.) you can see all the workouts that count for that category, and which one you have done in the last 6 months.
