Writing down what you lifted and how often is an old habit. The paper notebook moved to a phone, but the shape of the record barely changed. Workout Log is a tool for keeping that habit on the web. There is no sign-in, and the values you enter are never sent to a server.

Three Kinds of Training, One Place

Exercise does not record itself one way. Weight training needs load and repetitions; cardio needs time and distance; stretching needs a hold. This tool treats weights, cardio and stretching as distinct record types rather than forcing them into a single table.

• Weights: load and repetitions per set, with estimated 1RM derived automatically
• Cardio: duration, distance and average speed — enter one and the rest follows
• Stretching: hold duration

Taking the Device at Its Word

If you use a cycling computer or a smartwatch, there is nothing to copy by hand. Upload a .fit, .gpx or .tcx file and the duration and distance arrive as a record.

A recent revision deepened this. Imports now link to an official exercise catalog entry. The file’s sub-discipline is read, so a stationary bike is separated from a road ride, a treadmill from a trail. Hand-written and imported records gather under the same entry, so totals and trends no longer diverge.

More arrives with them: calories, average and maximum heart rate, average cadence, total ascent and maximum speed, all shown read-only. What a device measured stays distinguishable from what a person typed.

Routines: Choosing and Building

If you have not decided what to do, pick from prepared routines spanning full-body through five-day splits — upper/lower, anterior/posterior, and PPL (Push–Pull–Legs), each offered by experience level.

To build your own, create a custom routine: divide it into days, add exercises, set the order. Ordering is done by dragging a handle, and arrow keys work just as well.

A finished routine receives a balance score. It examines whether sets concentrate on one region, whether recovery spacing holds, and whether stretching and cardio have any presence — then names the gaps. A routine that trains chest five times is a diligent routine, not a balanced one.

Calendar and Streaks

A monthly calendar marks the days you trained and counts your consecutive-day streak. Selecting a date opens that day’s history, and the workout note can be opened from there to continue writing.

When the Movement Is Unfamiliar

If you cannot recall how an exercise is performed, the Weight Training Wiki is one link away, covering target muscles, execution and equipment use for over eight hundred movements.

Where the Records Live

Everything is stored in your browser and never transmitted to a server. If you change devices or want a backup, Google Drive sync can export and restore it. Choose otherwise and nothing leaves the machine.
