  • What is an ROQ?

    Relative Overall Quotient, or ROQ, is a score that Syphus Training™ participants work to attain and improve. Consider this number to be your fitness IQ, or fitness credit score of sorts. This number is graded on a scale from 1-1000 with scoring about 1000 only being possible if you finish a routine in under an hour. This number serves several purposes; It can show you your current state of fitness, it will serve as a way to monitor your progress and it will motivate you by creating a healthy level of competition amongst others involved in Syphus Training ™.

  • How is the ROQ derived?
