Why iTrainedToday?
July 14, 2010 | itrainedtoday
There are a dozen online training logs out there; some way more sophisticated than iTrainedToday, so why flood the web with another one? Well…
* a lot of the online training tools are sophisticated and that’s some of the problem. what ever happened to simplicity?
* most of the online tools are closely related to product. ie. they integrate very nicely with your heart-rate monitor or your GPS. but what if you don’t train with any of that?
* a lot of online tools you need to pay for- iTrainedToday is gratis.
And that’s the wrap. After years of recording my training sessions in handwritten books (and then losing them) i really wanted a place to be able to write it all up- not lose it- and add one or two things that a computer should really be doing for me: like adding up my volume for one.
So what does iTrainedToday actually do?
* you simply record your sessions in any format you choose to. it’s your session and it needs to make sense to you.
* basic sums and showing some straightforward graphs (what computers can do really quickly and easily)
* get out of your way. in one page you can see everything you need to do. capture your information, look at your progress and get back to “life”
Will iTrainedToday ever get more complicated?
No. I’m trying really hard to keep it uncomplicated and simple.
Will it add more features and value? Yes.
