I have had this little black index card box for over 2 years now - and it is stuffed to the gils with all the workouts I have done during that time period (except for stuff done following a video, or a live training session where I’m following along etc. even then I make some notes). Its fun to grab one from the beginning and look at the serious strength progress over time - I do that when going through a patch of low motivation, or to remember an old favorite exercise I haven’t done in a while. Each one has the date and time of the workout and (if I’m not working out at home) there are sometimes little coded notes to myself on the back if I have had some personal interaction while at a gym etc - if something bad or creepy happens, I can make a time adjustment for next time and hopefully not run into them, or conversely if there is someone cool that I can trade off spotting with, or work in with, I will make sure to show up at the same time in the future (AP = annoying people, VAP = very annoying people, C!= creepy, VC=very cool people, VCM=very cool motivating people, SB=spotbuddy, CR=crowded) Its good to mix it up (which I know all of you know). These days I’ll pull 4-5 blank index cards at a time and plan out a week in advance. This kinda makes me sound a little weird, doesn’t it? How do you organize your workouts??
