http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.html traineo forum thread - my new fitness site! Wed, 04 Jun 2008 08:43:34 +0000 http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlHi this is my first post here, if some 1 buy stuff from here? http://www.medicamol.comhttp://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlWed, 04 Jun 2008 08:43:34 +0000http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlPerhaps if I lower the font, it will appear more appealing. Thanks for the wording prob, ill look at it. But i got to admit, my organization is pretty darn good http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlFri, 30 May 2008 01:10:54 +0000http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlFrom brief browsing~ First off, good job! It looks like it took a lot of effort and you already have members c: It looks like it's targeted at a younger audience than people who are trying to lose weight. To me, the site doesn't look streamlined and respectable, but fun and childish. Some of your wording is a bit off. For example, under "diets," you say, "Those having tried this diet!" which sounds awkward. Maybe "Those who have tried this diet"? ...http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlFri, 30 May 2008 00:28:47 +0000http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlNo, right, i get ya. Ill try to think of a way to make it simpler to fill in your log, and perhaps move the links into main content.http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlThu, 29 May 2008 23:58:27 +0000http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlQuoting: timebuzzI do believe that though i have content on the right column, the main important stuff is in the middle. for the calories, i know traineo has the estimate drag thing, but mine gives you accurate numbers, based on the time you submit. Generally I think a lot of the important stuff is in the main body of the content, but on the logs page specifically I would argue that the various kinds of information you can log all share equal importance and that's kind of diminished wit...http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlThu, 29 May 2008 23:51:01 +0000http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlCliff thanks for your input! I come from the web2.0 generation where the text is made a little larger, perhaps i should tone it down.

Is it the community forums? Articles? Actual fitness/diet Logger? Collecting customer specifications should be the first step, before dev starts! (Yeah right, when does THAT happen? Heh...) Without actual usability numbers, I would expect that the forums are what drives multiple visits per day, whereas logging diet/etc. are a one time shot (twice if you log weight in the morning and exercise at night like me) so yo...http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlThu, 29 May 2008 18:55:01 +0000http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.html The reason I ask for opinions is because..I want to know what people use the most on fitness sites.

I am getting curios to check out this site. But it's straight up blocked, I can't even use my "quota time." Bummer. http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlThu, 29 May 2008 15:29:20 +0000http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlBrian, you can go back certain dates. On the right side on the calendar, click a certain date to go back to. To go back / forward months, click the arrows on each side of the month listed Which custom data do you need to enter? the calories?http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlThu, 29 May 2008 15:06:18 +0000http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlHey Mike, I checked out the site and it looks cool. One thing I noticed that was different than traineo is how excercise is entered. Let's say I worked out for 20 minutes on an elliptical trainer and according to the machine which I put my data into, I have burned an estimated 236 calories. I didn't see a way to enter that custom data like i can on traineo but maybe I missed something. Also, it doesn't look like one can go back to previous days to enter data which is helpful if yo...http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlThu, 29 May 2008 14:57:22 +0000http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlAnd, that's a pretty spanky site there, Mike. I can see you've put heaps of work into it and kudo's. FWIW, I too find the fontage a lil on the huge side. All the best with it, sir. http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlThu, 29 May 2008 14:08:52 +0000http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlGET BACK TO WORK, RACH! http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlThu, 29 May 2008 14:07:21 +0000http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlI do 98% of my web surfing at work. Many web sites are blocked. Yours is one of them.

So I can't even check it out, but I can tell you I won't be using it simply for that reason. I'll try to check it out later and give you my opinion.http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlThu, 29 May 2008 13:28:40 +0000http://www.traineo.com/15_5982_0.htmlInteresting site; I like and hate the granular level of detail you can enter information, but I'm not nearly OCD enough to fully utilize it... it looks like a second job just to log my diet and exercise on a daily basis. I love all the extra fields you have for tracking like body fat % and max weight on the big 3, etc. but that much more information means more effort heh.
