I just got back from meeting with a personal trainer. I scheduled the meeting to discuss a weight/cardio program. I had done a lot of research and had a pretty good idea what I wanted to do, but I wanted someone who really knew what they were doing to look at it, and tweak it if necessary.
We talked about my goals... what I was willing to put into this and what I was hoping to get out of it. We talked a bit about diet and a few other things, then we talked about a program. We are meeting again Tuesday morning to at the gym to go through some of the exercises and really get a feel for what I'll be doing on a daily basis.
Since I'm too lazy to retype everything, here's a screen capture of what I'm going to keep in my log. I want to track everything so I can monitor progress and success. Being able to see that I'm getting stronger and/or losing weight is going to be what keeps me in this for the long haul.
