Recording

The Crossfit that I go to uses a program called WODTogether.  WODTogether is where you sign up on the schedule, see the WOD, post your results, see everyone elses results, record PR's, pat your gym partners on the back, and look up what your max's are.  This is the GoTo program to see your improvements.  I love it.  I'm one of the people who logs every workout.  I also refer to it when we have a benchmark WOD, are building 1RM, or working at a percentage of our 1 reps. I refer to it a lot.
 
Now that I'm doing the Weightlifting Club, I can't log my workouts in WODTogether.  Well, I guess technically I can, but I'm told it's cumbersome.   I talked to my coach about having a system for logging the WODS.  He wants us to "work to a 3 rep max", or a 6 rep max, or 4 sets of 6 at 90% of 1 rep, for front squats, back squats, dead-lifts, push press, push jerk, etc... I know it isn't random and he has a system, but it feels random to me and I can't remember what all of those numbers are.  I mentioned that to him and asked how he keeps track and he said he just uses a note book and takes notes.  Which is what I figured, but I'm sure there has to be a system to use to be able to quickly look those numbers up. 

Does anyone have one?  Do you have a system to log your workouts and track your successes?  My coach said he just writes it down day by day, but I think that will be hard to look up.  But it would be good to see day by day. 

I've been tossing around starting a Bullet Journal.  I've been seeing bullet journal ideas pop up in all of my social media outlets recently, and I like the idea a lot.  I've never been great at using a day planner, for several reasons.  One is that I hate the set up.  I never like the way the pre-planned pages want to define me.  Another reason is that I just lack consistency in all things.  Ha!

I think that this might be the answer to keeping track of the workouts though.  I think that I can make a bullet journal fit for keeping track of weightlifting.  In my mind there is an index point for all of the Oly Lifts, and then I'll be able to add one for each of the main accessory movements and maybe a page for miscellaneous accessory work that he throws at us occasionally (last week we did plants with a 25# plate on our backs, I loved it).  And I'll also keep a day by day log in the journal.  Maybe I'll keep a measurement log along with it, but I'm thinking that I want to keep my body out of the book and keep it gym weights alone.  I haven't decided on that yet.  It ties in with my new years resolution though (a post to follow). 

I'm looking for advice.  If you have a system that you use, I want to hear about it.
