One number, and the proof behind it.
How the Onbars score is computed, and the two systems — certifications and skill badges — that let the community verify what you can do.
One number. Earned three ways.
A transparent formula that rewards what actually matters in calisthenics — strength, presence, and skill recognised by your peers.
Physical
60%
Pull-ups, dips, push-ups — graded by level, max 950 pts
Social
20%
5 pts per unique park visited, up to 40 parks
Skills & Recognition
20%
Certifications (+30 pts at Green) and skill badges (50–130 pts each, peer-voted)

Certifications ≠ Badges.
Two different ways to prove what you can do. Here's the difference, once and for all.
● CERTIFICATIONS
Prove your stats.
Upload one video per exercise. The community sees proof your numbers are real.
- PURPOSE Validate the stats on your profile (pull-ups, dips, push-ups)
- FORMAT One video per exercise · publicly viewable
- VALIDATION AI checks your rep count against your declared max
- TIERS Green — all 3 videos uploaded · Gold — all 3 AI-validated
- RESULT +30 Interaction points at Green · trust mark next to your number
EXAMPLEYou claim 23 pull-ups. Upload the video. The AI needs to detect at least 21 reps (90% of your claim) to validate it toward Gold.
● BADGES
Prove the skill.
Submit a video of a hard skill. Advanced & Elite athletes watch and vote.
- PURPOSE Reward mastery of specific skills
- SKILLS Full Planche · Front Lever · Human Flag · Handstand · Back Lever · Muscle-up
- VALIDATION Community vote — only Advanced & Elite tier athletes can vote
- WINDOW 7-day voting window · needs 10+ votes and 60% approval to close in your favor
- REWARD 50 to 130 Interaction points, by skill · badge on profile + leaderboard
EXAMPLEFilm a 5-second front lever hold. Submit. Votes come in over 7 days — the window closes with 14 votes, 11 approve (79%) → badge awarded, worth 110 points.
Your stats, on tape.
Upload one video per main exercise. The community sees the proof. The AI checks the numbers.
WHAT IT SOLVES
Anyone can write '20 pull-ups' on a profile. There's a reason most fitness leaderboards are noise — nothing is verified.
HOW IT WORKS
Upload one video for each main lift (pull-ups, dips, push-ups). Green unlocks the moment all 3 are uploaded — public proof, no AI pass required. Gold unlocks once the AI has validated all 3, each within 90% of your declared reps. Every count is recomputed server-side, so nothing can be faked client-side.
WHY IT MATTERS
The leaderboard means something. So does your profile. Reaching Green adds +30 points to your Interaction score — recognition your peers can trust.
● GREEN TIER
All 3 videos uploaded
Public proof · no AI pass required
● GOLD TIER
All 3 videos AI-validated (≥ 90% of declared reps)
Verified numbers · +30 Interaction pts
Voted by the athletes above you.
Film a skill. Submit. Advanced and Elite athletes watch — and decide whether you earned it.
WHAT IT SOLVES
Skills are subjective. AI can count a pull-up, but it can't tell you if your front lever was actually horizontal. Trust has to come from athletes who can already do it.
HOW IT WORKS
Record the skill straight from the app — it gets compressed and uploaded for you. Your video lands in the Arbitrage tab, where Advanced and Elite athletes watch and vote for 7 days. If the window closes with 10+ votes and at least 60% approval, the badge is yours. Every skill is worth different points — from 50 for a Muscle-up up to 130 for a Full Planche.
WHY IT MATTERS
A peer-validated badge is the only credential that matters in this sport. Voting isn't free either — every voter earns +2 Social points for reviewing your submission.
