Late to the conversation, but I log every workout. I'm also doing the same general workout as I was doing in January (with a few other things thrown in just in case a station, machine, etc. is busy and I need to keep my heart rate up). Basically, the only thing that changes is the number of reps. When I'm doing an endurance workout, then the reps are higher and I work with a lower weight. When I'm working strength, then the reps are lower with more weight. I have a 5-day split circuit. My trainer says that, as long as I'm not bored and I'm getting the desired results, then what I'm doing is working. Whenever I start to plateau, then we'll start reviewing nutrition and revamping workouts. Sometimes, if I really don't feel like doing goblet squats, then I'll do wall balls instead. I also wanted to learn dead lifts, so he showed me those as well. He said that he will start incorporating them into a couple of days of my circuits after our next session on Wednesday. Even if I didn't have a personal trainer, and once I'm done with my current contract if I don't extend it, I would still keep track of my workouts. I like seeing progress.
