Forum: Workout Journals

For those that do not know me, I have a lot of experience with the Starting Strength program. After a two month layoff from the weights, I will be making a fresh start following Starting Strength for an undetermined amount of time. This time around, I know what and what not to do, so there will be...

Here I will be recording all of my workouts. What exercises I did with what weight and how many reps. It'll be a good way to see progress and I'm hoping others will find it interesting to follow. I know this isn't a supplement log but if I begin a new supplement and I notice certain effects then I...

Hey everybody, I'm a strength enthusiast who's been lifting for something like 14 years now. At the present moment I'm pretty washed up after a series of small injuries which have affected my mobility but in the past few weeks I've recovered enough to be able to perform my main movements with...

I want to understand your reason for logging. What do you find useful to log? Whether you use pen and paper or an app? What's great and not so great about how you currently log your lifts?

Mostly using this so I have a back-up in case my workout journal gets lost/dies. My main goal is to get stronger and lean up a bit. 250 is the heaviest I've ever been and I'd like to get down to about 225. Training has been crazy inconsistent for years and I'm coming back from a mini training...

Hi, I'm Mike, a former forum regular. Back in 2010-2014 I took natural bodybuilding seriously and developed a physique that I wish to re-attain. Here's what I achieved back in 2014: It was about par for course for what you'd expect after 4 years of training. V taper was quite good,...

American Training in Shanghai Hey guys, I'm 31, American, a history teacher in Shanghai, China. Decided to keep up a new log to keep myself honest and focused with my diet and workouts. Been a long time supporter of bodybuilding.com and just getting back into logging and being active on this...

Lifting history December 2012: Watched Warrior with the lads whilst deployed in Afghanistan. A few of us thought Tom Hardy was awesome so we ran to the gym to train our chests and upper traps. That was my fitst gym experience. 2012-2016 Went full bro. Only trained chest, arms and upper traps...

OK, I had a good summer of slacking, but now my co-worker is starting to get serious about lifting, a little too serious... Its time to get my ass in gear. Why not start a log to keep myself motivated... My Current Situation: Age: 28 Weight: 216.4 Bodyfat: 10-11% Bodytype: Meso-Ecto...

Background : Short, skinny guy gets some weights and some bad advice and spends ages doing bro-splits and eating poorly to end up at the age of 30+ looking like he is a walking turd. Got onto all-pro's -- weights went up to intermediate level, I guess. My lifts went up quite quickly, with no...

Hi! So, I'm making a thread here to gauge my progress. I am beginning with a skinny physique, not much muscles or bodyfat, except for the legs which are somewhat decent. I'm 6'2 and was 75.6 kg / 166.67 lbs on the 18th of April. A few days later I took these measurements. Chest 97,5 cm...

Hi, for context I am about 5' 8" and about 125 lbs. So I'm pretty skinny. I'm still 18 though so I think I can still be able to gain muscle mass easily. I have been going to the gym for the past two days and while I know some really basic dumbell workouts I found online, I can only do small amounts...
