OK, so it has become even more apparent that I get bored, and I get discouraged when I devote so much time to something and see zero results. However, I am not to be deterred. And now I have found my new niche. :)
It is called Tribe Sports ( tribesports.com ) and it is amazing. There are thousands of people who participate everyday, and I would even go so far as to call it the "Facebook" of the fitness world. I have seen other sites that say they offer this sort of experience, but this one is on top. You create your profile like you would for any other social network, with a fitness bio. You follow people, people follow you, and there are leader boards, and medals to earn (and you start earning them immediately, which really keeps you motivated). You join tribes, and complete challenges. You log your fitness ( I haven't yet seen anywhere to log food. I don't think that is something you do on this site, but I personally only ever logged food to keep track of what I was eating, not for calories or any other reason so that doesn't bother me at all), and logging your fitness is easy. I usually hate logging ANYTHING because of the redundancy of it. Tribe Sports seems to make it easy.
And yes, there is a mobile app. However, I am finding that I use the mobile web rather than the app. The app is really good for logging workouts on the go, or keeping track of your run or cycling, but other than that, I haven't found much else it is useful for.
I didn't think I would get bored with my last "thing" but I did. I am not going to say that I wont get bored with Tribe Sports, because anything is possible. I really hope that I don't though. There are literally thousands of people, challenges, and workouts to connect with. If you start to get bored, find a new challenge. Find something different there are literally THOUSANDS of possibilities.
This is it. This is what I have been looking for all along. This is going to get me ready for Tough Mudder.
Tribe Sports is absolutely amazing and I wish I would have found it 10 months ago. :)
