Guide to Creating a Chart


Creating a Chart in WKO

How to create a chart or report

WKO includes many powerful charts, and many WKO users have created custom charts and shared them in our WKO Power Users Facebook group. If you can't find a chart that tells you what you need to know, you can create your own!


  1. In the dashboard in which you want to place your new chart, click the down arrow and click Create a New Chart.
  2. Select the type of chart you want. The types of charts available will differ depending on whether you're creating a chart for workouts or for an athlete. Click here for an overview of each chart type.
  3. Title your chart and choose the settings.
  4. To create a text report instead of a visual chart, simply click Report in Chart Settings instead of Chart.
