Having a training diary can really make your bulking up much more efficient and most professional bodybuilders use this method to keep track of their training. If you've made the decision to get the body you've dreamed of, a training diary can help you to stay focused and maintain your motivation.
When you keep track of your training it gets easy to give the right amount of training to all muscle groups and you're making sure that they are being worked in a proper way. It's great to have the ability to see how you are progressing over time and to know that you've improved your achievements.
You might find it surprising when you realize how fast you actually have been able to increase your weights and this makes it even more fun to set new goals to aim for.
You might want to get a nice notebook or a proper training log where you can keep track on a few different aspects to your training. In this book, make columns for different categories such as: muscle group trained, weight lifted, time and date, used exercise, number of reps and sets.
If you want you can also use a different page to keep track of your nutritional intake. Those categories could be: what you ate, time and estimated calories.
By making a plan for you training you can easier turn it into a part of your lifestyle. Make it a habit to once a week write down when you're planning to work out and which muscle groups you want to focus on at each session. When you have it all written down you'll find it harder to give yourself excuses for not going.
In your diary you can also write down the goals you want to achieve. Do this once a month or so and make sure the goals are once you feel you're able to reach. It's no use to set unrealistic goals since you'll only get disappointed if you're not able to achieve them. With goal setting you're making sure that you have a lot of your focus on what you want and this is how you best get the results you're looking for.
If you do this all properly your focus will be on your achievements and the more you set your mind on muscle growth, the more you will gain. With a training diary the work out becomes a natural part of your life and the results will come for sure.
