Scoring
There is limited details of the scoring system by f45, except that each exercise station is roughly scored out of 100 making the maximum achievable 1,000 points. They use a proprietary algorithm that rates the value of one repetition per station, based on the proportion of a "perfect" score of 100 points per station. Each repetition within the station has a different value based on the degree of difficulty for that movement. For example, a chinup is worth 5 points (an elite athlete may achieve at maximum of 20 chinups = 100 pts).
