Knowing How To Track Your Workouts Is The Best Method To Improve

By Tony Gates

Most people don't know how to track their training program of haven't even thought of it. The point to tracking what you do is to assure yourself that what you are doing is working effectively. It doesn't matter how efficient you are, it matters how effectively you are. Efficiency can mean that you do the same workout every day; that can be a good thing and a bad thing. Effectiveness means that what you are doing is actually working towards your goal. Why waste time not knowing if your time is worth it? It's not, unless you record progress.

Here are some simple things that you can not ignore if effective progress is what you are after.

Weight - Weighing your self on a regular basis, let's say once or twice a week is good. Make sure you are on a flat ground level. The best time to weigh yourself is in the morning when you first wake up since that is the time when you haven't ate anything yet but do it after you've urinated.

Body Fat Percent - The main goal in body building is of course to lose body fat and gain more muscle mass. For proper measurements, inquire a tool from your local store.

Measuring Lean Body Mass - Here's where you will see what's going on inside of you. What you are actually made of, more muscle or more fat. Meat is not necessarily muscle, measuring the lean body mass will help you identify what exactly is muscle and fat.

Measuring Body - After a two week of long hard workout there is no doubt that you've gain muscle. Pull out that flexible measuring tape and measure the muscles you've been trying to gain. If it is your bicep, measure it, and then record it down on your progress report.

Recording Photos - Photos might not seem like it's a big concern in body building. That's okay, the main goal we're after here is precise recording of progress. This is not to know how healthy you are, it's so you can smile when you see how fat you were to how good looking you are now! - 17274
