We will be improving the speed for the next month.  Aside from current bugs, we are working on the error logs so they get smaller and smaller (they have been), then there are several things we can start cache-ing (minigraphs, etc) to improve loading speed.  We have a lot of headroom for improvement.

I apologies for all of the inconvenience.  We are about to celebrate our 10 year anniversary, back then when we started coding there was one browser, Internet explorer. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_web_browsers  Makes things real easy.  It's not like that anymore.  Add to that mobile and debugging a complete site redesign is honestly a nightmare.  We can't even come close to covering all scenarios in development.

It's been just about a full week, and our most popular functions are stable - though still some bugs and oddities.  Though performance can certainly be improved and it will.

Stick around and help, let me know the specifics of what is slow and I will work on them.

I agree. However, I give them credit for trying to make it better, but having to click through more pages to enter a workout is far from ideal. I really liked the simplicity of putting body metrics, health, swim/bike/run, and everything all on one page. Too many clicks is an annoyance.

I have been a longtime member, but might be looking for a more user friendly place to log my workouts.

I've seen posts on chronic achilles pain, but nothing on recovery from surgery. I don't know the difference between the good pain and the bad when training.
