Strength score

Every muscle region we benchmark, strongest first, with a chart of your own trend over the last 12 weeks.

What this page does

The Strength score page, with a 12-week Quads chart above rows for Lats, Quads, Chest and Glutes, and a Not scored yet line

Each row is one muscle region.

Step by step

  1. Open Progress, stay on Trends, and find Strength by muscle. Tap View all.
  2. Tap a region to load its chart at the top of the page.
  3. Read the chart as your ratio to bodyweight, week by week, over the last 12 weeks.

A region with fewer than two scored weeks in that window shows a short note instead of a chart. That is expected for a region you have only recently started training.

When a row has no band

The note under an unscored region says what it needs.

Training the muscle another way still counts for everything else in the app: volume, recovery and progressive overload. It just isn't the lift this one score is measured on.

Neck, traps, forearms, inner thighs and outer hips are never benchmarked. They are named once in a Not scored yet line at the bottom instead of taking a row each.

Why the line can step down

For any one lift, your bodyweight ratio can only hold flat or climb.

Your band never goes backwards.

Good to know

Strength score is part of coaching. With coaching off, the page shows a grayed example with "Part of Coaching" on top. The numbers in it are not yours. Nothing is lost. Your own read comes back when coaching is on.
