So if my trainee only has 47 instead of 48 minutes for the week, about what percentage of the total weeks training do people figure he'll get?

From what I know he will get 70% to 80% training instead of the normal 100% with 48 minutes.

I think it would be more like 95%. You shouldn't even notice the setback.

since the minutes to percentage correlation is exponential and not linear, i'd agree that 80% is a more realistic estimation..

Unfortunately if it is truly exponential it should go much lower, 60%. That's what exponential means:)

However, i'm not sure who can confirm this.

Too many people throw in numbers that are absolutely wild guesses. New managers tend to believe what is said in here.

1. Exponential can mean anything (about 98% of training would be straight proportional).
2. No one except the BBs can confirm that. And they have not been willing to blab out that for some years now.

3. Personally I cannot believe that it has such a great effect. 47 minutes sound ok for me. But it tends to be less than 98% of training.

Everything we do here is a wild guess. The real thing is that no one knows for certain. One thing we know for sure is 48+ is the way to go

My trainee got 39 minutes in One on One in F last week, and popped in JS(It was the 4th week of one on one, so it was right on queue)

These guesses are horrendous.

If the training model is exponential, and 48 minutes is 100% training, then the math works out like this:

48^2 = 2304

47^2 = 2209


So, percent of training achieved = 2209/2304 = 95.88%

I don't want to be the nerd or anything... but exponential in maths is really like....

2^48=281474976710656
2^47=140737488355328

Thus => 50%. That is was exponential really means

But I seriously doubt that this is the case, and the difference between 47 and 48 is more like 5-10%, so your guess should be right:)

isn't exponential everything with an exponential funktion "^"
