Added Three New Workout Categories

workout-categories.jpgWe recently added three new swim workout categories to the workout database. Initially, we had only a stroke category for all stroke swim workouts. We added a backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly category. We then went through the 177 stroke workouts, and if we saw fit reassigned them to the new categories. Going forward, if the focus of the workout is a backstroke, breaststroke or butterfly set, please categorize it as such. If the workout is a mix of strokes, then the stroke category should apply. Thanks to Cyber-Dynoswimmer, Greg Rasmussen for the suggestion.

New Option When Creating a Workout

We recently introduced a new feature on the site that will serve multiple purposes. When creating a workout, we've added a "visible" selection. What this means is you have the option to add a workout to the database, but not make it searchable to the Dynoswim.com community.
visible.JPG

Why would you want to do this? One reason might be that you completed a workout at practice which your coach added to the database, but you might have arrived early/late and want to track your distance. Another example would be if you swam a mile in the open water and want to track your distance. Some other creative uses could be that you swam in a meet, and want to track each race along with your time.

Once you submitted the workout, you still won't have access to edit it regardless of the "visible" field selection. If it's not visible, you won't be able to search it, but you could find it in your "view your submitted workouts" page.

RSS Feeds for Saved and Submitted Workouts

We've added RSS Feeds of your saved workouts (save as completed), and submitted workouts. You could access your individual feed URLs when you log into your account. For those of you that wish to learn more about RSS feeds and how Dynoswim uses them check our our new FAQ item.

We also updated the completed workouts chart from a bar graph, to a line graph. Some users had saved multiple years worth of data, and a line graph allows a simpler view when you have multiple years of data.

Updated Search Swim Workout Results Page

Now that we have more than 850 swim workouts in the database we figured we needed a better way to navigate through the various pages of workouts. Previously, we only had the ability to navigate one page at a time from start to end which ended up being a tedious process if you wanted to view all the workouts (over 85 pages). Now you could easily skip to the end, or view various pages in-between. Also we applied a new look to the page which hopefully will make it a bit easier to read. Feel free to leave any comments below.

If you don't see the changes right away hold down the shift key, and press F5.

dynoswim-workouts-feed.JPGDoes your swim team have it's own website? Are you a swimmer or triathlete that likes to keep track of your swim workouts on your blog? If so we'd like to help display your workouts on your website using Dynoswim.com. We could create a custom RSS feed for you that would display your workouts submitted into the database in your website. To see this in action check out the sidebar at westportswimclub.org labeled "Workouts". If you're interested in adding this free functionality to your website, please contact us.

Updated: View Your Submitted Workouts

For those of you who have submitted workouts into the Dynoswim database we think you'll like the improved "View Your Submitted Workouts" tab interface. We display your submitted workouts into separate year tabs. We also display the number of users who have saved your workout as completed. We hope these enhancements makes the site more usable. Again feel free to leave a comment with any feedback, or features you think would benefit the Dynoswim community. For those of you who haven't created a workout this is what the interface looks like:

New: Search Swim Workouts by Time

We've updated the search swim workouts tool, so you can now search swim workouts by "Total Time". For the new "Total Time" field, you enter the time in minutes, and it will return all workouts 15 minutes greater, and 15 minutes less than the time you entered.

Updated Website Features

We want to mention a couple of minor enhancements made to the website recently. The first change is the "View Completed Workouts" page which now displays the data in a tabular format (each tab corresponds to the year in which you saved workouts).
view-completed-workouts

The second change corresponds to an extra step we added upon "saving a workout as completed". Once you click save you'll come to a screen where you could enter the date in which the workout was completed. Say for example you completed a workout on November 20th, but don't get around to saving it until December 21st. Prior to this change it would show up in your November monthly totals, wherein now you could choose the proper date you completed the workout.

We hope these enhancements help you better utilize Dynoswim.com as a training tool. Please continue to provide us feedback, and leave any comments/suggestions to these two features below.

Site Enhancements

We've made a couple more enhancements to the website today. The 1st change is we've changed the site layout from 2 columns to 3 columns. The 2nd change is adding a "Recent Comments" section to the far right navigation (below the ads). The "Recent Comments" should help keep site visitors aware of recent comments on posts that are no longer at the top of the page. If you come across any problems with the site due to the changes that took place today please let us know in the comments section of this post.

We've added another new feature to the website that will allow you to keep track of your completed swim workouts. It also gives you a monthly breakdown of your completed workouts, and monthly/yearly totals of your distances swam.

To view your completed workouts, log into your Dynoswim account, and click the "edit" link on the left to view your profile information, at the bottom you'll see a link labeled "View your completed workouts".
