How To Read Your Graph

Welcome.

This page will teach you how to interpret your results found on your graph. We will start with your initial 3 prong graph.

There are 4 key components:

1. The pillar label shows what each spike represents.

2. The datapoint is the tip of each spike, indicating your score for that pillar. Higher is better.

3. The percentage shows your progress to the goal for that pillar, based on the Vitruvian standard for your age. 100% means you've reached the target.

4. The color indicates your overall progress.

Let's break down what we see on the red graph. The inputs where:

Assessment - Input - Pillar - Percent Progress

Heart Rate - 42 BPM - Aerobic - 100%

Strict Pull-Up Max - 15 reps - Anaerobic - 57%

Waist Circumference - 80 cm - Composition - 100%

And this how that corresponds to the chart above:

Once you have provided data for each of the 11 pillars, your graph will turn white:

Let's look at another example. For strength, say you squat 245 lbs. The target is 355 lbs. So you're at 70% of the goal (Notice how edge of the spoke for strength is at 70%).

As you add more assessments per pillar, your score summarizes all of them. Your strength could include squat and military press scores, averaged into one progress percentage.

The more data you provide, the more comprehensive your graph becomes. 10 separate power tests would be synthesized into one power datapoint.

The color represents your overall progress level, modeled after Jiu Jitsu belts. Each color has its own standards to reach the next level. That is covered in greater detail here. 

In summary, your graph shows your fitness journey through clear pillar scores, percentages, and color ratings. The more data you provide, the more accurate the picture becomes.
