What is WurQ Power?

Modified on Tue, 21 Jan at 4:53 PM

- Your body is an engine, and we measure how much power it generates to understand your work capacity across broad time and modal domains.

- For information on the science behind power, please see (link) — in simple terms, more power is better for both wellness and performance.

- For each WOD, you can compare your power score against:

Your Best Self: The highest possible score if you maintained peak efficiency throughout the workout—an inspiring benchmark.
Your Cohort: The performance of others who completed the same WOD.

- We then break it down to show what contributes to your power production:

- Rest time in transitions and breaks.

- Rep cycle for each movement. This value shows how many seconds it takes on average to move from rep to rep across rounds. For better efficiency, aim to keep this line steady throughout your workout.

- Range of motion—if your range of motion reduces due to fatigue or imperfect technique, this will result in less work completed, and therefore less power. You can assess your range of motion round by round.

- For cardio movements like running, rope jump, rowing, etc., we use MET estimates to calculate work and power..
