This is refering to the progress bar next to the naval rank, not the progress bar for superpower reputation which is the larger bar and says either hostile, unfriendly, neutral, cordial, friendly, or allied.  This is also not refering to combat, trade, exploration, or cqc progress bars.  Naval progress is much much slower than reputation progress.
