A Necessity For Every Fitness Enthusiast

Whether you work out at home, in a gym or in the town park ... whether you like to run, row or stand by the water cooler, it's important to know exactly what you are doing and whether you are progressing.  (Who wants to work out for months for fun? ... let's see some abs damn it!)

A friend of mine developed the Personal Trainer Guide to Weight Training and Nutritionhttp://www.myfit.ca/weight_training_log_journal.asp.  It's an unbelievable guidebook produced by Myfit that is packed with fitness and nutrition information, examples of exercises complete with pictures and descriptions and tons of pages to record all of your workouts, results and food intake - this way you can track your progress.  The best part:  it's about the size of your hand so it's easy to carry with you or tuck in a pocket and use while you are working out.

I have used this training journal myself and find it to be really helpful. Bored with your glute exercises? ... it's got lots of suggestions.  Not sure if you're doing your side raises just right? ... check out the handy pictures included.  Wondering if it's all worth it? ...for motivation, check out page 58 for your "pre" measurements you wrote down. Not  quite sure what an oblique is? ... check out page 7 for a picture of the muscles in your body.

I think you get the picture - super helpful, really informative and a great little resource to have in your gym bag.
