Journaling for Success by Zachary Marcy:

BodyLabZ
provides each of their clients with a journal to chart and
track progress. We have found this to be the single most
effective way to keep accountability with our clients and
to make immediate changes that lead to our rapid results.
Where are you going with your training? Are you making consistent
changes in intensity on cardio? Do you increase your weights
on each lift from week to week? How consistently are you
eating on plan?If you don't know the answer to these questions
then it's time to start journaling. Journaling keeps a detailed
record that allows a person to assess what the specifics
of their health and fitness program.
For example, if you've been doing the same cardio with the
same intensity, time and mileage but haven't been losing
weight then it might be time to switch what you are doing.
Likewise, if the scale is staying at the same weight and
you are trying to gain, you can look at your food journal
to figure out if you are getting enough calories. If you
aren't getting those calories then you can see, in a detailed
fashion, how you can change your nutrition plan to get those
extra calories in. |
