New MuscleTalk TRAINING LOG system: TROG

We have developed a new training log system: MuscleTalk TROG
 
Currently in early BETA.


What is a TROG?
A TROG is a TRaining lOG where, as a registered MuscleTalk member, you can run a log of your goals and progress. It is your TROG of workouts, nutrition plans and general chat about your progress where, if you wish, other members can comment and ask you questions. Alternatively, you can keep it closed to replies and run it solely as your record.
 
Members can start their TROG by clicking here:
http://www.muscletalk.co.uk/trog/editprofile.aspx
 

For those of you lurkers that haven't signed up yet, you can signup to MT here:
http://www.muscletalk.co.uk/register.aspx
 
Then just visit the TROG link above.
 
To access TROGs click on the TROG tab above or directly here:
http://www.muscletalk.co.uk/trog
 

This is very different to running a Progress Journal as the emphasis is on you, the member and the TROG is your log where you have complete control. i.e. you can decide whether or not to allow others to comment and you are even able to delete unwanted replies (of course, a TROG is still subject to moderation by MT moderators just like the forum).
 
We are sure you will enjoy using TROGs and hope it will contribute to your progress, training goals and further enjoyment in the use of MuscleTalk.

MuscleTalk TROG

You may notice that some TROGs have been running for a few days, as the Mods and a couple of my clients set them up last week to trial the system.

Looking forward to you guys getting your training vids and pics up!

I noticed today.....even though you say it's different to a PJ  I don't see how it is?

Hi AWG

You'll see when they get running as to how it's different.  A TROG is very much your own log of training and progress and each post is a seperate entry, then others can comment (or not, that's also your choice as you can choose NOT to allow others to comment) about each TROG post.  With a PJ it's a continually log running topic (ever noticed that the pages can be slow to load in big journals?) where people comment about the whole thing.  TROGs are going to me much more about you the member.

Ah right I see, TBH I haven't used it properly, only titled it

I will post later and see for myself

Just spotted this and put a post, did not see it on sticky!!

Oops...

Great, please do.  And you'll see even more when others comment in reponse to your daily TROG posts.  And hopefully, you'll also post in others' TROGs too

How will I know that someone has posted in my TROG without looking at it?

Great idea James, im starting a lean bulk today will make it a lot easier to make a journal,

'TROG' i love it lol

Almost like an MT version of twitter, isn't it?

Kinda; we can all be Troggers!!

Just set mine up now...Started a diet today aswell.

Whats better a "TROG" or a "progress journal"?

I'm quite liking the look of this. Looks a lot more compact that a Prog Journal.

I found I was making increasing large posts about my sessions so I just stopped using it. This may be a good alternative

Hey Guys be sure to check out my TROG... (In exaggerated Beverly Hills accent)

Getting quite annoyed with this now. Have written it out twice and keep getting an error. Anybody else?

Looks like a cool idea, good work.
 
I haven't made one yet, but just had a quick browse through, looks like it is working better in FF than IE, comments won't show up.

What is the error? What happens?

That's why it's in beta - I think something we altered this am has affected this - we'll look at it now.

Just started a new routine so I might have a bash at this.
 
Only thing is, I do like my current progress journal and I'm not sure if I can be bothered logging all my lifts twice.
