A training log that shows progress, and a habit grid that shows consistency.
Apps are good at streaks and bad at history. Six months in, the question is not whether you went — it is whether the weight on the bar has moved.
What is in it
- Sessions, exercises, sets and load in one sheet
- Personal bests surfaced automatically
- A habit grid for the things that are not training
- Weekly and monthly totals without a subscription
- Filled example plus a blank copy
Who it is for
Anyone training on their own and tired of paying monthly for a log.
How it works
Microsoft Excel 2016 or newer on Windows or Mac, and Google Sheets — upload the file and open it with Sheets, every formula works. LibreOffice too. No macros, no add-ons, no account to create and nothing to install.
The download is instant. Every workbook ships twice: one with a worked example already filled in so you can see what each column expects, and the same file completely blank for your own numbers. A plain-English Start Here guide comes with it as a PDF.
Sold through my Etsy shop, ThePlainLedger, so the download, the payment and the buyer protection are all handled by Etsy. I never ask for access to anything — no password, no manager invite, no app permissions. You download a file; that is the whole transaction.
