Performance Output Quotient

Meaning

The Performance Output Quotient is a calculated clinical metric representing the ratio of actual physical performance achieved—such as force generated or work completed—relative to the measured physiological or hormonal resources expended, including metabolic cost or cortisol release. This quotient serves as a sophisticated measure of training efficiency and overall systemic health balance. It allows for a nuanced assessment of whether the training stimulus is producing maximal adaptive benefits without inducing excessive catabolic strain or chronic systemic fatigue.
