Do you take notes during your workout - weight, time of workout, imbalances between limbs (ie. left bicep weaker than right), etc?

Negative, I feel my time is too precious to waste.

With the issues I have, I'm always doing mental notes for specific joints during my work out as everything else is done for health/repetition and not for weight.

I've seen people taking notes in the gym, curiously, those people often look lost, don't know why. When I go to bed, I think about what I did today and I plan my workout for tomorrow. SGT Private RallyPoint Member

I just go to the mirror and admire how semi-sexy I am :)

Not sure this is really what is meant by the Exercise Planner Group, ie those who plan military exercises and training events vs fitness etc.

SGT Private RallyPoint Member personally I did but I am not writing things down as much because I am training others.

Mental notes and write them down later, as long as I remeber. Haha. Usually take it from workout to work out. Usually just go by memory from workout to workou . Also, it depends on what is available at the gym sometimes.

I only log my runtime, weather, and mood with my Garmin Fenix. For my lifting, I devise set goal weight and reps, then I just work on it till my body's used to it. Then I do what Arnie says and "Shark da Moosle"!! Rinse and repeat.

Yep, Bodybuilding.com has an app that will track all your workouts and then at the end of each week give you a progress report and show you a diagram of all the muscle groups you hit that week
