Calendars

Allow users to drag and drop one of their pre-made workouts onto the calendar for easy scheduling. Make the calendars Mac iCal/Google Calendar standards compliant and give each calendar an ical/xml/rss feed so that you don’t have to constantly export your calendar but can simply subscribe to it from iCal or Google Calendar.

edit: while we’re at it, a check list for the nutrition column.

I want to pre-decide my meal plan for the day and check off what I’ve ate so far. Ignore this if it’s already made for the pro accounts.

Yes, this is a Pro account feature already—and a nice one! :)

I really like that, cool concept.

We have discussed doing this before, but just never got around to it. We may have to revisit that idea before too long.

I just wanted to update this topic to point out that iCal feeds are now available to Pro users.

I have a couple of minor suggestions for the calendar which would shorten input time.
Firstly, I would like to be able to select multiple workouts to add to a day, instead of one at a time. For example CV and weights on one day.
Secondly, could it remember my time/ duration choices so that I don’t have to select them from the drop-down boxes each time?
I guess these points might not be as useful to people who have regular workout on set days every week, but if your workouts are a little bit more random, then it could definitely save time.
Also, just one other pet peeve – I like my calendars to start on a Monday and not a Sunday. Could this be a preference?
Hope I don’t seem too demanding :-)
Keep up the good work Gyminees!!

edit changed a suggestion after some thought

Thanks for the suggestions.

iCal feeds work for Google Calendars. Partially. There’s missing data all over the place, incomplete entries, and missing titles. What gives?

*Edit: Downloading file and importing manually into Google Calendars, it works. So something is wrong with the URL version.

Here’s the description for one day in Google Calendars after importing manually:

Meals Planned from DailyBurn: Coffee, brewed from grounds, prepared with tap water (1 cup (8 fl oz)).0 servings of Tap Water)ndwich0 servings of Grilled Salmongs of Wilted Spinach with galic and lime Water of Pistachiosrange

That doesn’t work. Any chance you guys will test this out more extensively?

@Akusenkutou thank you for the update. We’ll have our devs look into this

I find that, when importing into gcal via URL, that some durations and start times end up slightly mangled.

Eg 30 minutes starting at 10:00, ends up in gcal as 9:59 to 10:59.

In general durations less than one hour seem to end up as one hour long in gcal.
