Dear moderator,
i have not been able to find similar topics/request. pls advise.
Suggestion is to add 1 graphic to allow more complete assessment of progress over time, similar to the Year-to-date view. I did so by integrating existing/ available data export, no major change was needed for dash boarding - I only created chart output.
I truly believe that when measuring fitness this view should not be ignored.
my idea would be this;
to me, fit means an assessment on multiple measurements. And thus my progress on each and progress overall. the latter goes especially for when tracking development over time in preparation to competitions for example.
Currently the dashboard is sub optimal to asses overall progress. But why not combine the trends?
Ideally i would like to answer the following examples based on 1 chart:
- if i exercise more (cal output)?, does my sleep increase?, and is my resting bpr lower?
- if i improve my diet, doe i sleep better, is my bpr better....
it is not for statistical purpose, or causal explanation. More, if all else remains the same it would tell me if i'm improving or not, and where to work on. If I should give priority to interval training, sleep time, diet etc.
pls find a mockup via below link - based on sample data - of how i did this, using available data. and showing development of all indicators - in one graph over time in months.
steps
1. use data export available dashboard numbers (per month --> better per week or day!)
2. Convert indicators with factor - so it fits in 1 graph progress is only about trend, not actual number
3. create chart, delete Y axis (no relevance)
4. review trends of all indicators over time
Its a more direct measure than the VO2max. Hope this helps and gives you some advantage. it would surely be advantage to Athletes.
to view data-conversion + chart output go to:

kind regards,
ps; I ignore altitude, distance, VO2max due time constraint and relevance for my case.
pps for casu i'm only considering measurements taken by fitbit. I'm ignoring other relevant indicators for full assement of progress/recovery not taken by fitbit like body temperature, hart rate variability HRV. etc.
