Building Muscle 101 Complete Beginners Guide To Weight Training Journals Here’s how to use the journals. Calender: Prior to starting your program, I suggest you print off a copy of the calender. Mark down when you will be weight training and what time. This will help you get organized. Stick the calender into a small binder. Weight Training Journals: Print off 6 copies. This will be enough for 6 weeks worth of workouts. Under the reps and weight category, simply mark how much repetitions your performed and how much weight you have used for that exercise. Under the cardio category, mark down what type of cardio exercise was performed and for how long. Under the notes section, mark down any important information such as your energy levels, additional sets or repetitions performed. Print off 6 copies and stick them into a small binder. Food Journal: Print off enough copies for a week. Mark the week and the date. Record the meal and time in the appropriate slots. Plan your meals around your workout time. Use the meal plan provided in the beginners nutrition section and record the meals. You can view the meal plan here. Grocery List: Once you’ve finished planning your meals, print off the grocery list and purchase the ingredients. Place journals in a binder and keep it handy at the gym and in the kitchen.
