Workout Planner for Daily Fitness Tracking & Goals Setting - A5 Size, 6” x 8”, Peachy Pink - Improved Thicker Cover - Men & Women Personal Home & Gym Training Diary - Log Book - by Workout Log Gym

I have run several programmes in the past, mainly focusing around powerlifting, with an initial period of just general fitness and mass gain, and believe this log works well for both. This log has an excellent cookie cutter template for programmes such as Stronglifts 5x5 or ice cream fitness 5x5 due to its ease of use and easy to understand layout. The book outlines setting goals based on a session by session basis, allowing you to note down factors like overall tempo, and any additional notes; such as RPE, pre session nutrition, or overall feel of the session, which can be a great help when trying to identify key factors that may be limited or facilitating progress after the noob gains period has ended. There is plenty of room to list each exercise, especially in high volume splits such as push,pull,leg (PPL) or overall body part splits, with each exercise allowing you to record up to 5 sets in one line. For the most part 5 sets is normally enough for most programmes but those following very high volume templates; such as GVT, it may become annoying , although I found a quick way round this by just listing the same exercise in the below slot and continuing to track from there. Due to 5 sets trying to be squeezed onto one sheet of A5 it can be difficult to list larger numbers, or common decimals in the small boxes given to list the weight of your exercise, which in turn makes looking at previous sessions a bit difficult from time to time, although those with smaller handwriting should have no issues at all. For most advanced training templates; and some beginner ones, there may be different focuses on the style of exercise e.g tempo/speed work, time under tension work, or basic strength work, in which it is important to distinguish between exercises styles to help log and track progress in certain areas/ organise your training schedule, this is something the log can do very well due to its generous room to list your exercises each session, which means you can easily write little notes underneath each exercise to outline minor details. One minor flaw is the lack of being able to track wave based periodization to help with ease of session templates and set/rep/weight goals. Those following templates such as GZCL may be familiar with regularly changing estimated 1/2RM, in which every session has parts based around %1/2rm. There is no designated page to help track regularly changing goals such as these which can make planning a bit of a nuisance, possibly an extra couple of the pages at the back could help? The log itself is made of high quality material and has so far survived being held loose in my gym bag, alongside lifting shoes, chalk, wraps, and other equipment, which seemed to have only made minor damage to the front cover; which is to be expected. It’s compact A5 size means it’s easy to throw in your gym bag, and carry around the gym with you, and can be a lot easier to makes detailed notes in compared to some smartphone apps available. TL;DR - The book allows great tracking on a session by session basis, which is excellent for both experienced and new gym-goers, alike, those using very tailored training patterns e.g using conjugate periodization may need additional tools to help track long term goals and objectives, but this log gives a great way to measure and monitor your gym progress over time, I would highly recommend!

Good log book

I bought this diary as I used to write my own, but it got scrappy and trying to draw lines in an a5 book used to really gripe me! This book have everything, I rarely do more than 5 sets so the structure is perfect, it has a little cardio section, a notes section, rest period and tempo if you’re doing pause reps etc. Really great! The first page has a secrion for putting your goals down, back page has a weight and inches measurement so you can track your progress. Really easy to use and save me lots of time. Only reason I’ve put 4 stars is the paper is a hit flimsy and I dropped a bit of sweat on it and it tore pretty much straight away, so I’d avoid leaning forward and using it if you’re a sweaty mess like I am!

Helping me with my gym workout! Love the detailing!!

There isn't anything which I can criticise about this little book. The first page has a section for training goals, and the last few pages make it possible to track progress - weight, body fat, measurements etc. In between are many clear, well designed and attractive pages. This book has everything you need - with room for specific exercises, cardio types and notes (each day). A nice touch is the section for rest intervals and tempo. I am very much looking forward to using this in my training. Yes, you can purchase various cheaper alternatives across the web BUT I have found these are not as sturdy, do not have enough room to track exercises, and the general quality is not as good as this workout log. The cover is sturdy and the pages are not flimsy. Moving forwards, I would love to see a greater range of designs :-) It is clear that a great deal of time and effort has been spent planning this log, and I am glad to be supporting a small business.

The actual log contents looks really good; However the listing says “ BUILT TO LAST - Heavy-Duty 100-gsm paper designed to withstand punishment on the gym floor and sweaty gym bag; Double-wire binding spirals for long-lasting durability” Except mine arrived with the pages all stuck together where the machine hasn’t cut the holes properly. After separating the pages, the log now won’t close. See photos of what it looks like from opening it once! I can’t even imagine what it would look like after daily use for a month. It definitely needs something wider and sturdier than the small wire ring binder.

Really like these. Bought one at the end of last year and I now use them for clients training. Easy to use and sturdy. Printing programs - paper would end up crumpled when in a gym bag. Using apps. - older clients struggled to use it, and if you drop weights on your phone it breaks This has a sturdy enough cover to remain fine in a gym bag and you can drop weights on it. Also easy to use and a great layout 👌🏼

The workout planner is fantastic. It really helped me start to truly take my gym routine to the next level and provide an accountability I needed for success. The planner is sleek and has many visible options for you to choose from. I chose the green one because Green.. but all options are lovely. There is many pages and a lovely page layout for you to provide context to your workouts and write any notes you need to remind yourself of for the next session.

Llegó en pésimas condiciones, estaba mojado/despintado de la parte inferior y algo “pandeado”. No tenía ninguna bolsa de protección ( compre otro con diferente proveedor y tenía bolsa de protección) En cuanto al contenido viene lo que promete.

Lite tunn och billig

Génial! Simples et efficace.

Helped me alot to monitor my improvement

Buena relación calidad - precio. Es útil para el propósito que tiene (llevan un diario de entrenamiento). Responde a las expectativas.
