Training Log Start Day of Week Now Configurable

You can now select which day of the week will be the start day of your training log. This day has defaulted to Sunday for all members in the past, but you can now set it to whatever day you would like. This affects how your Training Volume by Week charts display.

You can change this setting by:

  • Go to your Training Log
  • Click the Account Settings tab
  • Click the "Manage your training log Start Day of Week setting" link
  • Select the day and click the Submit button

Log Your Workouts Faster Than Ever

We have updated our training logs so that they are even easier to use. Buttons representing activities are now used to add a new activity or sport to your training log. The top three activities that you log are displayed so that you are always only one click away from adding them to your log. Your training log keeps track of your top three activities and will change over time.

A button for adding a note to your log is displayed next to your top three activity buttons. Additional activities can be selected from a new, easy to use popup box that displays them in a much cleaner format than the old drop down box.

It is all pretty self explanatory, but there is more info here: www.endurancejunkies.com/facebook/. The post will look something like this in your Facebook Feed:

New Functionality - Comments Tab

I've been going back and forth with how to handle user comments in your training log. On one hand, I like having them tied to the daily log. On the other, I also like when all comments are laid out in a list and you can go back and read everything.

So I've decided to implement both. The comments in your training log will continue to function as they have in the past. But I've also added a new tab called Comments that will display all of your comments in one place. These are the same comments that show in your training log, it is just a different way to look at them.

Check it out and let me know what you think!

New Functionality for Your Profile & Training Log

Today I am really excited to start rolling out some of the site enhancements that I have been working on for some time. You will notice a new look for your training log and profile. There are now tabs that run across the top of these pages that make for easier navigation between your profile, training log, charts and friends pages.

The profile page has been enhanced to include more information about yourself to make it easier to find other members that share your same interests. Enhancements include:

  • The ability to provide location information. This will help you find other members and groups near you.
  • The ability to specify your interests. This will help you find other members and groups with similar interests.
  • New functionality to upload a larger picture to display in your profile in addition to the smaller avatar picture.
  • Your training log description has been moved to your profile and is now called About Me. This is in response to requests to keep the training log page as simple as possible so that you can easily manage your workouts.

The Training Log page looks just a little different, but don't worry, the functionality has not changed! There is now more room on the page to display your logs and the various controls have been centralized at the top of the page where they are easier to find and use. The training volume chart has been expanded to include the past 12 weeks, giving you a better snapshot of your training history and progress.

The Account Settings page has been moved to a tab in your profile. This page centralizes all of the various site settings for your account onto one page.

These new enhancements are the first steps in providing new tools to help grow this community. Updating your location and interests will help you find other members that can provide advice, find people to train with or just to make new friends.

I welcome your feedback!

A new chart for tracking your body measurements is available under the Charts Tab in your Training Log. It will show the progress of your weight, body fat percentage, waist, hips or any other vital data point we capture over a date range that you select. You can choose to display the measurements by day, average by week or average by month.

You privacy settings for your vitals are enforced when displaying this chart. This will allow you to restrict who can view this chart.
