In my home gym, I set up a little white board to record my maxes
text says: squat 120 kg x1 bench 75 kg x2 deadlift 135 kg x2
Awesome stuff :D nothing beats moving up another notch
I mostly train around ~10 reps these days but I updated all my singles in December and I flew past my old PRs, felt so good
I have a few friends that workout regularly and I'm perplexed that at no time do they actually monitor their lifts.
This is great.
I also separately keep up with my 5 rep maxes, so I might do this with two columns.
