FITIV Points are the best way to track and compare your workouts. By using your own personal intensity metrics FITIV Points level the playing field between athletes and provide an objective score of your workout according to its duration and intensity.
What are FITIV Points?
FITIV Points offer a unique way to track your fitness progress, making it easy and fair for everyone, regardless of age, shape, or size. Traditional methods like counting calories can often feel uneven because different people burn calories differently—even when doing the same workout. FITIV Points solve this by focusing on your personal workout intensity and duration, not just calories.
Why Use FITIV Points?
Using FITIV Points, you get a score that truly represents the effort you put into your workout. This means you can set realistic fitness goals and engage in competitions more fairly. Whether you're looking to challenge yourself or compete with others, FITIV Points provide an objective way to measure success, encouraging you to stay motivated and achieve your fitness goals.
How are FITIV Points Calculated?
FITIV Points are based on MET Minutes, using your workout duration and effort to calculate your score. The average METs of your workouts is multiplied by the duration in minutes, resulting in your final Points score. Simply put, the harder and longer you work out, the more points you earn, allowing you to climb higher on the leaderboards and meet your weekly goals.
Alert Tip: You start earning FITIV Points when your workout exceeds 3.0 METs. Light activities, such as slow walking, stretching, or gentle yoga, may not meet the MET threshold and therefore will not award FITIV Points.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Why am I Not Earning FITIV Points in my latest workout?

FITIV Points are a great way to track your workout intensity and progress. If you notice that a workout didn’t earn any Points, it could be due to the following reasons:
- Workout Intensity: Points are awarded for workouts exceeding 3.0 METs. Low-intensity activities such as slow walks, stretching, or gentle yoga may not meet the criteria.
- Sync or Duplication Issues: Syncing problems or duplicated workouts across platforms may prevent Points from being counted.
- Manually Added Workouts: Manually logged workouts don’t earn Points because they lack real-time heart rate and motion data needed for calculation.
