Big updates!
A map of Free fitness facilities and local experts.
I like to train outside, in parks, on the beach, in the mountains... Fruit I guess of having been a cyclist and triathlete for over 20 years.
I'm mapping free fitness facilities (calisthenics parks, swim spots, running spots) because while I know there are websites listing these (Google maps no less, but there are others) I've often ended up on wild goose chases, to find mislisting or parks with crappy, broken equipment, more than once missing my training because of this. This one requires photos and reviews of the equipment.
I include running spots because interval training is hard to do on busy roads, pavements or trails, so if you just want to put the hammer down for a mile, and you're on holiday in the area you can see places you can do so.
Local experts can also add they're services, so I've you're a PT or coach who likes to train outdoors and likes to train people outdoors, add yourself.
Please add spots you know, it take 2-3 min to add a spot
Visit the map and add your spots.
Hybrid workout merges!!
Again, I'm sort of catering to my own needs, I like to run between calisthenics sets. I will do something like 5 x 20 pull ups with 1600 m at threshold (usually a bit under). Now I have the tool to record these sessions and see progress! It's in Beta, I'm basically waiting on tester feedback to finish improve this.
I'm thrilled with this because it will all for the analysis of the interplay between endurance and strength/power training.
Bar Bounties - Who is the strongest in your area?
These are "league tables" for each location where you can (if you want) see how you stand against others at a particular park. The measures are: reps, Joules (work, so heavy people can earn a good ranking), difficulty. Somewhat inspired by the idea of segments in endurance sport. The rankings are sorted by age, weight and sex.
