How Are Activity Points Calculated?
Move Republic’s Activity Points (AP) are calculated using a unified system that fairly compares different types of movement. Regular, balanced activity is rewarded more than extreme performance, promoting long-term motivation and fairness for everyone.
Activity Points (AP) are a core metric at Move Republic. They make it possible to measure and compare different forms of physical activity in a consistent and transparent way.
Linear System for Converting Activities into AP
-
1 step = 1 AP (maximum 50,000 per day)
-
2 meters by bike = 1 AP
-
1 minute of stationary training = 100 AP (daily minimum 1,500 AP – maximum 7,500 AP)
This simple conversion system is extended by a new formula for evaluating “foot activities” such as walking or running.
What Does “Progressive–Regressive” Calculation Mean?
The new progressive–regressive calculation applies to the “foot activities” category. This means:
-
The number of points depends on the intensity of the activity on a given day.
-
A balanced level of movement is rewarded, while excessive values are not over-rewarded.
-
The goal is to promote regular activity, maintain balance between effort and benefit, and ensure equal opportunities regardless of age, gender, or fitness level.
Advantages of This Mechanism
-
Motivation for steady progress: Rewards increase as users move from low to moderate activity.
-
Avoidance of extremes: Very active users do not receive disproportionately high scores, ensuring fairness.
-
Balanced ranking: Reflects engagement and consistency, not only intensity.
-
Flexibility: Thresholds and coefficients can be adjusted to match different activity types (e.g., walking, cycling, wheelchair movement).
Activity Points and Parameters for “Foot Activities”
This category includes walking, Nordic walking, trekking, climbing, jogging, and running – recorded through the app or compatible devices such as smartwatches.
Valid parameters:
-
Minimum time: 1 minute
-
Minimum distance: 0.5 km
-
Minimum average speed: 3 km/h
-
Maximum average speed: 20 km/h
-
Maximum speed: 30 km/h
-
Maximum daily distance: 45 km
Distance-to-AP Conversion (per meter):
| Distance Range (m) | AP per m | Example AP |
|---|---|---|
| 1 – 7 000 | 0.10 | 700 |
| 7 001 – 12 000 | 0.15 | 1 450 |
| 12 001 – 18 000 | 0.20 | 2 650 |
| 18 001 – 25 000 | 0.15 | 3 700 |
| 25 001 – 32 000 | 0.10 | 4 400 |
| 32 001 – 40 000 | 0.05 | 4 800 |
| 40 001 – 45 000 | 0.01 | 4 850 |
This distance bonus is added to step-based AP, reflecting the higher effort and health benefits of continuous movement during distance-based training.
