So until I settle in on what to actually document (will I bother to list out how many reps, and the corresponding weights? Or will I just mention improvements I notice as I go along? I don't know), there isn't really a whole lot to mention other than that I did the Legs & Back routine today. Usually, when it comes to performing one of the exercises, I look at what I did previously, and depending on how I feel, try to improve on it in some way. So if I did six total chin-ups last time, with a mid-set break at four, then the next time I'll see if I can get to seven, or maybe do all six again but without the break. So thats what today's back workout portion was mostly about - trying to either improve by one rep, to do the same number as before but without a break.
The leg routine was fairly typical - since it is all about reps first, and weights second - I often don't end up recording whether I was holding 4 lb or 8 lb weights during things like the calf raise squats. So I suppose I need to get better about documenting that as well. It was one thing to be a slacker about that during the summer when I was just doing the routines as a way to break into the program, but if I really want to
then I have to start writing some of this stuff down.
