What’s happening with Mikibo

Oops … we have not posted to this “official Mikibo blog” in 2 years (we have been using the Mikibo groups to keep members updated) so I thought we better put an update on here.  Mikibo has been growing well and we have been making small updates to improve the site.

Over the last year or so we have been working on a major update to Mikibo that will make it easier and more efficient to use as well as looking more modern.

We can’t wait to launch the new and improved Mikibo in the next few months. When we do we will be sure to put a post on here.

Til next time … The Mikibo Team

Simply copy the code from the Mikibo site and paste it into your blog or web page. You can set the chart size, colors, period (from 1 month to 1 year) and units (pounds, kilograms). Below is an example weight tracker chart.

New water log added to Mikibo food diary

We have added two new features to the food diary. The first is a water logging feature and indicator so that you can ensure you are being adequately hydrated.
The second feature is called Quickfoods and allows you to add foods that you consume regularly in one step. This should save you time when entering your foods each day.

Add missing foods system updated.

We have made a long awaited update to the add missing foods system. You can now add foods to the Mikibo food database in a variety of units as well as per serve (if you don’t know the weight or volume). We hope this makes it easier for you to add missing foods.

New Gym and Triathlon Groups

We have added two new groups to Mikibo. By popular demand we added a gym users group where you can discuss your favorite gyms, classes, instructors, equipment etc. We have also added a triathlon group for those of your who like the sport. If you’re a member if Mikibo then you should check out these new groups. If you are not yet a member then you can join for free at www.mikibo.com

Mikibo training diary update

You can now add detailed notes about your training sessions in the training diary. Click on the name of any exercise that you have added to your diary and you will be able to record your training details. This should be particularly useful for recording sets, reps and load in strength training and for recording interval training breakdowns in endurance training.

Mikibo groups update

We have made a few updates to the Mikibo groups including: adding a groups search box, making group history pages cover the entire history of the group and improving the overall design of the groups. We particularly think the groups search feature will be useful for all those times when people ask a question that has been asked and answered before.

We have also added 4 new groups , which were all requested by the Mikibo community. We now have 10 groups covering a variety of topics related to health and fitness. Our most popular groups remain the weight loss and running groups.
