I mentioned in my goals that I really need to work on my working out/fitness. This has probably been the umpteenth time I have said that, but I really want to commit. I made it to the gym three times last week and will again this week.
I am my biggest competitor/critic. No one can make the changes I want to see but me, and that is my problem - I get complacent and do not stay committed. My idea for keeping myself accountable and on track is by making a fitness journal. I still use bodybuilder.com to track workouts and measurements and stuff, but I like things in my hands physically (I am a list/notebook/planner person) so fitness journal it is.
So, what am I putting in my journal? Here are the general sections.
Goals
I know I am not a big person, but I still have jiggly places. My goal is to turn the jiggles from fat to muscle, this means I will gain weight and look smaller. (Each month I will set a specific goal)Measurements and progress photos
Both Nate and I are going to do this at the beginning of each month to keep us going. It is hard to argue that you are doing enough if your February picture looks worse than your January one.Measurements that will be included: calf, thigh, hip, chest, arm.
