Reading your jump data

Personal bests, the PB ring, editing reps, trend charts and history: how to read what Metric Jump gives you back.

UPDATED

After you record a few sets, the job of Metric Jump changes from measuring reps to showing you what has changed. You read that back on the set summary, on the home screen and in your history.

Read the test summary

Each set opens on its own summary. The title states what you did (5 × Countermovement jump) and when you did it.

The card at the top is a carousel with one page per rep. It opens on your best rep for the metric you set as your key metric. Swipe across to step through the set. Each page shows the video thumbnail for that rep, its value, your PB line and the PB ring.

If the set holds the right combination of jump types, the symmetry and ratios card comes below the carousel. A bar for each rep comes next, then the full rep table.

Read personal bests and the PB ring

Metric Jump does not store your personal bests. It works them out from your history every time you look, split by jump type and by metric. So your CMJ height PB and your CMJ RSI PB are separate numbers. A single-leg rep only competes against other single-leg reps on the same side.

The ring on the hero card reads your rep as a percentage of that best, with of PB underneath. 100% means you matched it. Anything above means you beat it.

You get the same comparison live during capture, either New PB! or CMJ · 87% of PB. You know where you stand before you walk back to the phone.

Tip: A mixed set contributes each rep to its own bucket. Record CMJs and single-leg jumps in the one set, and every rep still lands against the right history.

Edit the rep table

The table at the bottom of the summary is the editable part.

  • Reclassify a rep — tap the coloured type capsule on that row.
  • Hide a rep — use the minus button on that row.

Metric Jump does not delete a hidden rep. Hidden reps stay in the table, greyed out, and drop out of every chart, PB and stat until you restore them.

That is the tool for a false detection or a warm-up rep you do not want in your data. Use it as well for a squat jump that got labelled a CMJ because you bounced out of the bottom. The name of the set comes from the reps that are visible, so hiding reps can rename the set as you go.

Read the home screen

Once there are two or more jump days to compare, the header shows how much you improved across your chosen window. It shows one percentage with an arrow. Coaches see the same figure across the whole roster.

Before there is enough history for that, you get your latest jump instead. Metric Jump tags it with the type it detected: CMJ · auto-detected.

Read the trend chart

The dropdown on the chart card picks what you plot. The rep metrics are jump height, takeoff velocity, flight time, RSI-modified and impulse. Under those sits a second group of composite scores: symmetry, eccentric utilisation, bilateral index and arm-swing contribution.

The chart draws one line per jump type, with one point per day showing that day’s best rep. The filter pills underneath (All, CMJ, Squat, ABK, SL) narrow it down. The y-axis stays anchored across every type whether you filter or not. Switching pills does not rescale the chart under you and make a flat run look like a breakthrough.

To scrub through the chart, press and hold, then drag. A line follows your finger and reads out the value of each type for the day you are on.

The window defaults to six weeks, with two weeks, six months and a year also available. Shorten it to inspect a block. Lengthen it to see a season.

Tip: Composite scores only appear on days where the set held the right jump mix. If the line looks sparse, that is why. Composite jump analytics lists what each score needs.

Check your history

The calendar card covers the last four weeks with your active days filled in, alongside a count of tests and your current weekly streak. Gaps in testing are obvious at a glance.

Tap through for the full list, grouped by month. Each row shows the jump type, the date and time, and the best value in that set for your key metric. Mixed sets show a row of coloured dots, one per jump type in the set. Swipe a row to delete a set you do not want.

Choose one key metric

The metric you pick follows you around. Change it on the home chart. The same metric then drives the number on your summary hero, the bar chart under it, and the values in your history rows. Metric Jump does this on purpose. The app stays on one question at a time instead of showing you height in one place and RSI in another.

Compare a roster on the team views

Coaches get a leaderboard that ranks the roster on the selected metric and window. Coaches also get a team chart that draws each athlete faintly with the team average bold on top. The leaderboard and the chart share one selection, so changing the metric in either one changes both.
