Exercise Tracking/Journal

kandikorn96

I have used pinterest for a bit now to come up with workouts, because I don't really like coming up with my own. I do my cardio, and then there are a lot of weight training exercises on there that I like, but does anyone have any suggestions for apps I might be able to use to keep track of the amount of weights I'm using for each exercise? I didn't really see a spot in the myfitnesspal app for this type of tracking. Thanks!

Imho, still the best way (yes, STILL), is to print out your plan and jot down the weight, or write it all down in a journal. I personally use excel, one sheet for each day for example (i.e. Mon = Chest, Tues = Back etc.). I usually copy / paste the exercises into the rows, in parantheses I add the # of reps. Then I draw up columns, say week 1-6. I bring it to the gym in a little folder / loose-leaf binder and each week I write down the weight lifted, so I can increase it next time.
