GlossaryScoring method

Percentage of Goals

Definition

A MoveTogether competition scoring method that scores each participant by how completely they hit their own daily goals for Move, Exercise, and Steps. It suits groups with very different fitness levels, because each person is measured against their own targets.

Two very different athletes side by side, showing fitness comes in every form.

How MoveTogether uses it.

A beginner with a 5,000-step goal who hits it scores the same as a marathoner with a 15,000-step goal who hits theirs. Each ring counts up to 100% of its goal, so a day tops out at 300%.

It works well for mixed groups: parents and teenagers, beginners and athletes. The trade-off is that it rewards honest goal-setting, since a lower goal makes every point cheaper. Goals are visible in the app, and you usually compete with people you know, so this matters less than it sounds.
