Just recently lost 4 1/2 years of digital logging. None of it was it was anything to write home about, I’ve mostly been on injury recovery going from one Injury to the next. But it was nice to look back on my diet and figure out what works for me. I used to log in a small notebook that fit in my pocket but got to a point where I was limited and stared use an app that I paid for, then injuries so I cancelled the app and just used my IPhone notepad. Big mistake cause it’s all gone now but lesson learned and while be starting a full size journal. Any one have some pics of how they lay out their logs?
 
For diet tracking, i use MFP on my phone.
Even if the phone is lost or damaged, my history with the app is saved on their site.

For tracking lifts, pen and paper is the only method i prefer.
 
I’m away from my collection rn but I can give an outline

It’s different each time and recently I’ve been making them in work, having my wife make them look pretty then print them out.

I’ve liked making them on my computer having my wife make them easy to read, diff colors and shit and printing them then putting them in a three ring binder and sectioning them off by years a lot better than my chicken scratch writing.

hope that helps, it’s pretty basic stuff

feelin a lil silly, not gonna lie it hadn’t crossed my mind to make a print out till you just said it. I haven’t own a printer for quite a few years, until about a month ago when my wife stared working from home. I was actually thinking like how you would layout an oldschool black and white composition notebook.
