The key in this system is to get certain aspects as close to a realistic 
match as possible to minimize learning curve.

What I'm basically doing is using statistics to create the charts by 
matching how the average person performs compared to how someone who is at

the top of their game performs. I've already done it with speed, and I'm 
hoping to use it for the other combat related stats as well.

I'm thinking that a physical therapist also might be good for some
baseline 
numbers.
