Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Improve image delivery
1.4 s · 616 KiB11 images could be 616 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 57
57/100Your mobile performance score is 57. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, nice-team.net and justdomeit.com and others), adding 1.3 MB and 403 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
500 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 500 ms.
Reduce unused JavaScript
478 KiBAbout 478 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Main-thread work: 3.9 s
A phone's processor spends 3.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 649 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
1,653 HTML elements
The page has 1,653 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
justdomeit.com adds 59 ms
59 msjustdomeit.com costs a phone 59 ms of main-thread work and 537 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 84 KiB14 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (84 KiB).
4 long tasks on the main thread
4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 73 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify JavaScript
56 KiB56 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Reduce unused CSS
13 KiBAbout 13 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Minify CSS
7 KiB7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

5.9 sYour largest element takes 5.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

12.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 12.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.476
0.476The layout shifts by 0.476 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Tap response (INP) got 24% slower for real visitors
+24%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 103 ms to 128 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
1 image without width and height
1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
+7%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 0.9 s to 1.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.5 MB in 275 requests
3.5 MBYour homepage downloads 3.5 MB in 275 requests on a phone: scripts 1.3 MB (97), images 1.2 MB (29) and other files 770 KiB (100). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
athletic-use.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
3 images below the first screen load straight away
3 images further down the page (263 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
0.99 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.99 g of CO₂e: 119.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 checks passed
24 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 24 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 24 passed and 0 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
