Some users notice they receive multiple “Perfect” during a game, even when their Contraction Quality Meter is in the red, or they see a low contraction quality score at the end of the session despite getting “Perfects” throughout. This can be confusing, but these two measurements reflect different things.
What Do “Perfects” Mean?
The “Perfect” messages that appear during a game indicate that you successfully followed the contraction pattern shown on the screen. In other words, you matched the rhythm or targets of the game correctly.
Although they’re called “Perfect,” they do not reflect your muscle technique. They measure how well you follow the game’s instructions, not how you contract.
What Is Contraction Quality?
Your contraction quality is shown by the Contraction Quality Meter (the small speedometer in the top-right corner of the screen).
This meter evaluates your technique, meaning your ability to correctly engage and isolate your pelvic floor muscles during a contraction, and avoid too much intra-abdominal pressure. It reflects how well you are activating the right muscles, not whether you are following the pattern on screen.
Why the Confusion Happens
It’s common to assume that “Perfect” equals perfect technique. However:
“Perfect” = following the game pattern correctly
Contraction Quality Meter = technique
They measure two different aspects of your training.
