Streak Mode

Learn how Streak Mode builds daily consistency and how to set simple, motivating goals that work for all ability levels.

Updated yesterday

Build consistency, momentum, and daily movement habits

Streak Mode is one of the simplest — and most effective — ways to get people moving. It’s rooted in one idea: showing up matters.

Rather than focusing on total activity, Streak Mode rewards participants for hitting a daily goal, helping them build routines that actually stick.

If you’re looking for a mode that boosts motivation, drives daily check-ins, and feels accessible to all ability levels, this is your go-to.


🎯 What Streak Mode Measures

Streak Mode tracks whether participants hit a daily step, minute, or distance target.

Each day in your challenge is an opportunity to earn a “win.”

  • Hit your daily goal? ✔️

  • Miss it? No big deal — your streak continues tomorrow.

It’s progress without pressure. No one gets “knocked out,” and everyone has the chance to keep building momentum throughout the challenge.


📏 What Goal You’ll Set

You’ll set one daily individual goal, such as:

  • 6,000 steps/day or

  • 20 active minutes/day or

  • 3 miles/day

You can optionally enable Personalized Goals, which let participants choose their own daily goal within a range you define.

It’s an easy way to make challenges more inclusive for groups with very different fitness levels.

🧠 How Scoring Works

Scoring is based on consistency, not total activity.

Participants earn:

  • 1 daily checkmark every time they meet or exceed the daily goal

  • A final score based on the percentage of days they hit the goal

Example:

A 10-day challenge

A participant hits the goal 7 out of 10 days

→ Their Streak score = 70%

This format encourages realistic, repeatable habits — especially for beginners.


💡 Best For

  • Groups with mixed fitness levels

  • Beginners and “I’m not really a fitness person” participants

  • Programs focused on habit-building

  • Longer challenges (14–30+ days)

  • When you want everyone to feel successful

Streak Mode often produces some of the highest engagement across Stridekick challenges. People love the daily checkmark and the sense of progress — even if they’re not the most active person in the group.


🧩 Pro Tip: Stack It With Another Mode

Streak Mode pairs beautifully with:

  • Leaderboard → Consistency + competition

  • Target → Daily habits + total progress

  • Team Leaderboard → Personal accountability + team spirit

Stacking modes increases variety and appeals to different motivation styles (your competitive folks, your consistent folks, your achievement-oriented folks).
