The current situation is presenting us all with unprecedented challenges. Public life will now be shut down as best as possible for the second time this year.
Once again, each and every one of us is now required to step back, adjust our behavior and do our part to finally stop this pandemic from spreading - so that the season can continue as planned in the new year.
For us footballers, that means no sessions with our teammates.
But does that necessarily mean that we have to completely forgo the team spirit, that we can't train with and against each other as a team?
No!
Because we have given everything in the last three months so that you can continue to represent your club and help your team with training diligence.
With our new ranking feature
Three months of development are now behind us. Almost a hundred days that were as exhausting as a daily champion workout in Gamechanger. In contrast to this sweaty exertion, our developers have not (yet) undergone a physical transformation. But our profile area has. Our performance machines from IT and graphics have completely overhauled it.
But even if the physical transformation of our developers does not (yet) suggest it, our profile area does. It has been completely overhauled.
At the heart of it: the new ranking feature.
Finally there is the possibility to score digitally for you and your club. Every completed training session is rewarded and you can move up the community leaderboard place by place.
You want to know where your limit is? Now you have the opportunity.
Everything in view - especially for coaches
Control not only in the game, but also in training: coaches want to keep track of everything. To see at first glance: Who is stepping on the gas, who is cheating their way through? That's now possible, too.
The ranking feature not only allows you to compete with all the athletes in our app, but also offers you a team-internal comparison.
All you have to do is select your team and you can see your current ranking in the team. Who can cause a surprise? Who can jump to the top of the table as an underdog?
This means that your trainer now also has the opportunity to accompany "his boys" over the winter, to control their training and to check their fitness status at a glance.
Revised design and further features in planning
In general, the entire app has been given a facelift: Easier usability, smoother design and new layouts.
The comeback area in particular now shines in new splendor - with a clearer calendar view and other clever solutions that make even the toughest rehab training exciting.
In addition, we have been working in the background for weeks on new programs and guides. For example, a completely soccer-specific endurance training program and a nutrition program with culinary preferences and shopping lists will also be integrated into the B42 training app in the next few weeks.
Don't lose sight of the goal
But even in light of all these accomplishments, we won't sit back. Rather, we'll keep working to support you along the way. You have big goals too? Then work just as hard to achieve them. We've got your back.
We owe all the innovations in the app to our strong community. Every single piece of feedback is listened to, weighed up and implemented where possible. Much to the chagrin of our developers, who not only work in Champions Week mode, but actually belong in the Champions League.
As team players - as members of this society - let's all uphold our aspiration: to make the best of this sh** this year.
So don't lose sight of your goal. Keep working on yourself with continuity and discipline. What you invest now will make the difference later.

Be Fearless.
Be Focussed.
