Setting up your Leaderboard scoring is fast, flexible, and powerful. Here's how it works.
Step-by-Step Setup
Go to the Leaderboard page in FitMetrics.
Click the Settings icon (top right).
Open the Scoring tab.
Set the point allocation for each category:
Weight Loss (default: 25%)
Workouts (default: 25%)
Nutrition (default: 20%)
Habits (default: 15%)
Steps (default: 15%)
The five weights must add up to 100%. A badge at the top shows your current total — green when valid, red when not. If you're unsure how to distribute them, click Auto Balance to split them evenly (20% each).
How Scoring Works
Each metric contributes to the total score based on the weight you assign. For example, if you set Workouts to 30%, a client who completes all their workouts will earn the full 30 points for that category.
The system calculates scores automatically in real-time based on client activity synced from Trainerize. Weight loss is calculated within the selected time period — comparing the client's first recorded weight to their latest weight in that window.
Other Settings Tabs
The Settings modal has five tabs:
Scoring — set point allocations for each metric (must total 100%)
Achievements — enable/disable achievement badges and customize thresholds
Display — show or hide profile pictures, coach names, achievements, and streaks
Public — configure your public leaderboard link and what clients can see
General — set the default scoring mode (Overall, Weight Loss Only, etc.)
Pro Tips
Use short-term filters (Last 7 or 30 Days) for weekly/monthly challenges.
Use All Time to reward long-term consistency.
Create single-metric competitions by switching to a scoring mode like "Steps Only" or "Workouts Only" — no need to change your weights.
Use Smart View filters to run separate competitions for different client groups (e.g., "Weight Loss Group" vs. "Muscle Building Group").
Remember: this is your leaderboard, your rules. Use it to push, reward, and engage your clients in a fun, measurable way.
