Remembering last week's weights is harder than lifting them. A digital workout planner keeps your schedule, sets, reps and notes in one GoodNotes or Notability file, so the numbers from your last session are a tap away. Below are my roundups of gym logs and fitness journals.
A weekly workout schedule shows which days are for strength, cardio or rest. A gym tracker goes into detail with exercise, weight and reps per set. Many templates include both, and that pairing works well if you follow a program.
Gym logs focus on sets and weights, while home and running layouts often track time and distance. Pick the one that matches what you do most.
Usually not. Most templates give you blank pages to fill in with your own exercises or a program from a coach.
GoodNotes syncs notebooks between iPad and iPhone, so you can view the file on your phone, though writing is easier on the iPad.
If you are new to exercise, returning after an injury or managing a health condition, talk to a doctor or physical therapist before starting a new routine.
