That reminded me of a joke.
Mickey mouse goes to talk to a divorce lawyer
The lawyer says," Now you say you want a divorce because Mrs. Mouse is mentally ill".
“What?” Mickey says “I didn’t say that”
The lawyer says " But you told me she was crazy"
" I didn’t say she was crazy". Mickey says. " I said she was fucking Goofy"

It’s a jumbled mess of random numbers and exercises in an ugly spiral notebook, but I can somewhat make it out @Faugxh

Page one, stuck in when I started my tax book, deadlifting 60kg, complete w cocoa stains
Random pull days. I use diff colours to mark progress and deloading and also circumstances like depr injury etc. So a lot of green means I’m having a good time.
Making advanced in the DLs.
The first two months of push days of this year, all pink, all regressing. And when the spell broke, tender green.
I love seeing all your books so much guys!
@2JTravNZ Trav you next?

I love the color system. I use little symbols all over for that too. Like asterisk for sets to failure Others for drop and supersets and such.

Omg I love this kind of notes! Unfortunately I don’t have home gym but I have some kettles, I think I’m gonna start personalise workouts and make notes too, to see the progress (I hope).
I started with kettles around half year ago (4kg) with YouTube videos. Now I have app with workouts and usually I use 8kg. Don’t laugh ppl, for me it’s a lot anyway 
I have 10kg waiting for me and I think I’m gonna try different type of workouts now

Prior to having a lifting app (still deciding if I like it or not), this was my method. Still digital but fully manual. Lot of made-up names for exercises.
These go back ~3yrs to when I moved here. I had close to 10 years of notes stacked up but they were lost in a phone switch.
Speaking of – time to head over to the gym now. Have a solid day, folks.

I have avoided getting a new phone ever since. Traumatized.

Anyone have experience with this? I have been thinking of getting a bar and plate weights but then came across this
Random side note- I did all my upper arm stuff with 20s this morning 
I have been stuck on 15lbs for so longgg
Adding another question- what do I need to know about a bar? I’ve always used dumbbells. I see a bunch of different brands and some say Olympic but I don’t need a professional one, just a regular one.

Olympic refers to the standard measurements of 50-51mm diameter, the same as in all gyms and the same as is used for competitions in WL. This is important if you’re training to compete so you’re used to the dimensions and weight and feel of the bars.
There’s another system w 31-32mm diameter, I use those at home. They’re not as professional but they will last you just as well for amateur sport imo. I think we started using them cos we got our first sets used and that’s just what they were, and then we just got more stuff w these dimensions over time.
I would recommend getting a regular bar and dumbbell set, either 50s or 30s, cos they both are universally usable, you don’t rely on any brand or anything that can go broke or whatever, you can always get more plates and fasteners and also: that’s just what you use, not some telescopic thing, they are tried and trusted and simple and work.

I have one of these and it’s actually pretty useful! It might be a different brand but it’s the same thing.
