Result Metrics
What each linear sprint, change of direction, and repetition metric means and how the 1080 software calculates it.
These articles describe the metrics the 1080 software shows for a recorded result, and how each one is calculated. The 1080 apps share these definitions, so a result shows the same values wherever you view it.
Which metrics apply depends on the type of exercise:
- Linear Sprint Metrics - One run in a single direction.
- Change of Direction Metrics - One run with one or more turns.
- Repetition Metrics - Sets of reps, including Synchro and Synchro Smith exercises.
Every metric is calculated for every result, whichever metrics an exercise shows.
Targets and best values
When you compare a result against a target, or when the software picks the best result, it needs to know whether a higher or a lower value is better:
- Lower is better for all time metrics, such as Total Time, 0-5, and Time under Tension.
- Higher is better for all other metrics.
