data and trends
One-off blow outs, outliers, and routine fluctations are common in most data-sets; especially for health and fitness analytics. Scientists combat this by analysing trendline to view overall trend of the data set, which is why we’ve baked this functionality into all of our cards. The data we support are below:actual
these are the values of your actual completed cards. They are seen as dots on
the chart.
actual linear
a linear plot calculated from your actaul data points
Use the actual linear trendline as the source of truth for those data sets
which fluate widely pending a number of variables you can or can’t control.
Bodyweight tracking is natorious for this, with number of cards, salt and
water intake, time of day and bowel causing your induvidual data points to
vary widly. Whilst when viewed in isolation this may appear as choas, the
actual linear trendline will show your real trend.
target
the trendline of your goal as it changes from your set starting point to the
finishing point throughout the block
min and max guard-rails
when you set a goal your can select “use tolerance” to set guard rails above
and below your target trendlines. This determine your “compliance” value which
is the percentage of actaul data points inside the guardrails vs outside.
Use this value to report accountability to your coach, or to drive changes within
your block programming. You can use this to throttle up your own internal accountability for peak-weeks or to get you out of a slump
forecast
Based on your actual trendline we’ll calculte your forecast target at the end
of the block. We actively recalculate both your actual linear trendline and
your forecast after every card completion.
It is extremely common to see people being too aggresive with their goals. The
forecast value is key to give you that peace of mind that your on track. If you
know your waist needs to be 32” to fit into your wedding suit pants in 10 weeks
time, then only make nutritional or training adjustments if the forecast is widly
