For Better Workouts Rethink Your Log book

How many of you have or had a fitbook or fitness log book? Looked pretty sweet for the first while. Every little detail filled in; hell even the "This Book Belongs to:" is filled out. All my meals, my workouts, my moods etc. How do the more recent pages look? I'll tell you how mine look. BLANK. It is not that I am not working out. But writing it down afterwards is the least pleasurable thing about working out.

I have rethought the whole process and decided to turn it all around. I am writing my workouts and meals before they happen. This motivates me to do more during my workouts and leaves less to temptation. Namely, that little voice that says, "that's enough for now" or "I'll just eat whatever".

After writing my week's worth of workout down ahead. I do not give myself any excuses not to do them. I keep the workouts short to make sure I can have time to do them.
