NewMe Fitness Exercise Planner

This has been a game changer for my overall fitness. The notebook itself is excellent quality, and it has enough space for me to get a whole week of workouts in on a single page. It's simple, yet very effective, and exactly what I need to track my workouts.

I don't need a fitness journal that constantly strokes my ego or one with with trite and saccharine motivational phrases; I just want something to track my exercises, reps and weight used for each exercise. This journal is perfect. It has a diagram of the muscles with the names of exercises to work each group and "before" and "after" pages for your body measurements. There's also a page to list your goals with a deadline and a plan to get there. As for the workout log pages, they are blissfully simple. There are spaces for the date, current weight, start time, stop time, lines to log each exercise with the number of sets (plus reps in each set) and the weight used for each set. On each page there is also a notes section. I find this helpful if something went well or wrong during my workout session. I also like the spiral binding so the journal lays flat when open. In addition, I the log pages have a spot to track your cardio workout as I use cardio to warm up and to improve heart health. The same hold true for the nutrition tracker. Simple and easy to use format. Would purchase again and recommend to others.

I liked the size and style of this journal but there are a couple of things that bother me. First, I'd like a column to track fiber as well as the other macros. You could eliminate serving size and put it there -- I enter the serving size when I'm putting the item in. Second, I would love it if you would put the macros in order of how you'd find them on a package. Calories first, then fat, carbs, fiber and protein. As it is now, I enter these all in backwards and it's sort of annoying. Lastly, give me 1/4" more room between the last column and the spirals. Other than that, this is a very good journal. No issues with the spiral binding, it's not cheaply made, and there are plenty of things you can use to monitor your day. Oh, I guess one more thing would be a ribbon to use as a place holder? I added my own, but having one included would be nice. Thanks!

I use Lose It to track food and exercise, but Lose It doesn't have options for including detailed info about workouts. I use this book to list exactly which exercises, weights, reps, etc. I do each day. There's a short section for cardio, and there's a small area for writing in anything additional I want to add. I use that space to track specifics about my cardio and stretching. It could also be used to track other things that Lose It doesn't track, like water, vitamins, etc. Most important: The book holds up well. The pages don't fall out, and after two months of use there are no tears along the spiral. I had previously tried a different weight-lifting journal that fell apart completely the second time I opened it. The NewMe journal is much better! I ordered the two-pack, and when I run out I'll get more. Hmmm... I hope they're still available next year. Maybe I should go ahead and order a couple more packs now! Using with NewMe card decks: I didn't even realize until writing this review that the journal is made by the same company that makes the workout cards I use. That explains why the journal and cards work so well together! In the journal I write the card number along with the exercise name so I can easily refer to the cards later. Even though most people's workouts include three to six exercises, the journal has room to list sixteen. That's plenty of room for my experimenting days, when I grab 16 new exercises from the cards and do a set or two of each, just to have fun trying something different. The journal makes it easy to track the new exercises I try so I can look back weeks later to see what I'd tried that was too difficult or didn't seem effective at the time, and I can decide if I want to try those again. Most days, I fill half or a third of the list space, and I use the rest of that space to write notes about specific exercises for that day (for example, if I decreased my normal weight amount to work on form for a particular exercise, or if I put my bench on a different angle than usual for a particular exercise, or if I feel like I've maxed out my dumbbells for an exercise and need to remember to buy heavier weights, etc.).

This book is great! Pros: Enough room to log lots of exercises and well organized to quickly track and analyze progress. Thoughtful layout allowing you to comprehensively log not only the structure of the workout but energy levels, future improvement ideas or current achievements Sturdy pages where inks don’t bleed through Quick muscle and measurement guides with tips on exercising each group Logging and journaling is super quick and easy All of the pros are why I purchased this book. After doing extensive research on other products and digital apps this journal appeared the best solution to me because it has everything I need and is a lot quicker to jot down as you move along than it is to scroll through menus on apps. If there is one slight adjustment I think this book could use it would be to expand on the cardio section a little bit. It would be nice to log time intervals, running cadence, or other details that get a little crowded in the small cardio section of each page.

Exactly what I was looking for to plan and teach my workouts. Easy to use and record everything.

esattamente quello che mi serviva, cercavo un logbook che sostituisse il mio disordinato quadernino e finalmente l’ho trovato! ci sono gli spazi per segnare esercizi, reps, pesi e tante altre informazioni, le pagine sono resistenti e la spirale comodissima, ne acquisterò sicuramente altri

Excelente, muy funcional.

Very helpful and make workout well organized and memo for future reference👍🏻

This fitness journal is exactly what I was looking for. All other books I looked at seemed to be a combo of fitness and nutrition, but as I use an app for the nutrition part I only wanted a book to track my fitness progression. This book is perfect, it has places to record body measurements, goals, and daily exercises, reps/weights as well as cardio. Paper is nice and thick and the spiral binding makes it lay flat. Love it.
