Yes! There's something about a paper workout journal! I have a notebook from a few years ago where I simply took a page and drew in 100 boxes. For each mile I walked, I got to shade in a box. That was such a motivation! I'd be walking at the Y and want to stop at 1.5 miles but the idea of shading in two boxes instead of one appealed to me, so I'd keep going until I'd completed two miles. That was the most consistent I had been in working out regularly and quite the celebration when I'd walked 100 miles! Your post is a reminder for me to use a paper journal again!
As soon as I saw your notebook page I could tell you were a crossfitter π This inspires me to get back to the gym notebook habit I used to have. Congrats on completing the open!
