We are excited to announce the availability of several new features within BodySpace.  As of yesterday, users now have an all-new My Dashboard page.  In addition to this new page, we have also released key updates to a user's profile page and made significant updates to the navigation within BodySpace.

The new My Dashboard has a fresh new look and provides all new functionality including an increased emphasis on setting, measuring progress towards, and achieving goals.  As you can see from the screen shots below, the user will be able to quickly see their progress towards their weight goal, see how many days are remaining until their goal expires and see how much weight they need to gain or lose in order to reach their goal.  The user will also receive encouragement to set a goal if they haven't set one yet, or be reminded to set a new goal if their current goal is expired.

This new page also includes an updated progress photo module, enhanced charts, a view into your latest BodyStat measurements including the change since the last update and workout tracker summary data with a quick link into the workout tracker.  The new My Dashboard page will also now utilize the new 'What My Friends Are Up To' information so users will have a consistent experience with member updates when looking at the BodySpace main page, a user's profile page or their own Dashboard page.

Lastly, this release also includes several updates to the navigation within BodySpace.  Four new pages have been added to support adjusting the navigation to make items more logically organized and easier for our users to find.

Thanks,

David McLean
Community Product Owner

Some users experienced an issue where they were unable to log into BodySpace over the past couple of days.  This issue was identified early and resolved today.  It did not affect all users, only a small percentage of overall users.  Still, we apologize for the delay, and are happy to report that our development team fixed the issue in a speedy, professional manner.

Thank you to everyone who reported the issue!

Boise, ID – August 5, 2011 – Bodybuilding.com, the Internet’s most-visited bodybuilding and fitness site and largest online retailer of nutritional supplements, and MusclePharm, one of the fastest growing nutritional supplement companies in the United States, are giving away $10,000 to one lucky man and one lucky woman who win the “Live Shredded” transformation challenge. The Grand Prize Winners will also receive front row UFC tickets (trip included), a Photo shoot at MusclePharm Sports Science Center with celebrity photographer Eric Williams, a two year supply of MusclePharm Supplements, and $300 worth of MusclePharm clothing. Plus, additional prizes will be given to second and third place winners – as always, it’s free to enter.

Not only do individuals have a chance to win amazing prizes, but contestants are provided with a free custom nutrition, training and motivational guide led by Bodybuilding.com and top MusclePharm athletes. Weekly personal emails provide entrants with exclusive deals and words of advice to keep motivation high and help along the way. This interactive, revolutionary approach ensures every transformation can be a long-lasting success.

Individuals have until August 31, 2011 to register for the MusclePharm Live Shredded Transformation Challenge. Upon registration, their official twelve week transformation begins. At the end of the twelve week challenge two grand prize winners, one second place winner and one third place winner will be chosen based on the following criteria: biggest physical and mental improvement and most inspirational and helpful to others as shown in their final contest photos and essay submission. In addition, daily and weekly winners will be chosen randomly to receive prize packages valuing up to $150.

As a strong supporter of the military, Bodybuilding.com and MusclePharm will donate $2.00 to the Hire Heroes Foundation when customers purchase the MusclePharm Live Shredded Supplement Stack. For any order over $75 (regardless of product ordered), customers can choose for Bodybuilding.com to donate an additional $2.00 instead of receiving a standard free gift. Hire Heroes USA's mission is to offer transition assistance, job search assistance, and job placement services to those who have honorably served in the US military (and their spouses) in order to reduce veteran unemployment.
