Apeks · HOW YOUR RANK WORKS
Your rank doesn't care how much you lift.
Your Apeks rank is built from two things: the visits you make, and the comebacks you make after a missed day. That's all it counts.
THE WHOLE FORMULA
Two parts. No small print.
Every visit adds to your rank. A visit is thirty minutes at your gym, after you tap Start.
Miss a planned visit, then come back, and the visit you come back with earns extra credit.
Nothing else goes in. Nothing ever comes out for a missed day.
WHAT IT REMEMBERS
Nothing resets. Not after a year.
A streak resets on a missed day. Apeks does the opposite: it rewards the next visit, because that's the visit where a habit survives.
Come back after a missed week or a missed year and your rank is where you left it.
A streak dies on the first missed day. Your rank doesn't.
THE BOARDS
The gym board. Showing up wins.
Your rank puts you on a board with members of your gym. The board counts visits and comebacks, so the person at the top is the one who keeps showing up, not the one with the biggest arms.
Missed days never show on the board. Inside Apeks, nobody sees what you missed.
Visits and comebacks only. Missed days never show.
AN EXAMPLE
Two members, one month.
One member goes twice a week and never misses. Another plans three days a week, misses a whole week in the middle of the month, then comes back.
Both climb. The first climbs on visits. The second climbs on visits and on the comeback. Neither loses anything for the week that went wrong.
Your first 30 days: a board of your own.
Your first thirty days get a board of their own, so a new start isn't measured against years of regulars.
Start where you are. That's the only place anyone ever starts.
Photos are illustrative.
The Apex.
The crown for the most visits in 90 days. Not the most weight. Not the sharpest physique. The most visits.
It works the way everything else in Apeks does: show up, and it counts.
What your rank never counts.
- Weight liftedYour rank has no idea what you lift, and it never will.
- Pace or distanceA slow walk on the treadmill is still a visit.
- Photos or looksNo photos, no proof posts, no before and after.
- Missed daysThey stay blank and private, and they never take anything away.
ON THE GYM WALL
What people think a rank means.
I’ll never be the strongest one there.
I’m not competitive.
Rankings make me want to hide.
What’s the point of a rank?
Rank = visits + comebacks.
Common thoughts, not quotes from anyone.
A few questions.
Does a missed day take anything away?
No. Missing never takes away a visit you've made, and nothing resets.
Who sees my rank?
Your rank puts you on the gym board with members of your gym. Your missed days never show there.
Is The Apex live?
Not yet. It's coming soon: the crown for the most visits in 90 days.
Does lifting more help my rank?
No. Your rank counts visits and comeback credit. Weight, pace and looks never count.
