Weight lifting log app

[gtbarry]

I am looking for a pretty simple weightlifting app. I just want an app that I can input what I do, the reps, the weight and the date and track it. That's kind of it.

I don't need to track my BMI, have a muscle map, see a little animation of the proper technique, get recommendations, hear a doped up Lance Armstrong telling me how close I am to my goals, etc.

Almost spreadsheet like: this exercise, this amount, on this day and then see it on a calendar etc. No fluff.

Thanks!

Here is an app that allows you to track your workout, but instead of a calendar you have a table or graph by date.
Simple Workout Tracker

or you can try Strong Log where you have to put in a little information once but then you can track it on the calendar

Looks like Strong Log is closest to what I am looking for.

Simple Workout is very goal-oriented. Nothing wrong with that, but I am looking for more of a historical log

Strong Log has some pretty easy to use features to it. Though it is curious that the one thing it lacks is "reps" and "sets". All you can log is the amount of weight, exercise and the date. It has a note area that I can put reps and sets in. But very odd to exclude them.

Thanks!

Forgive me if this is too obvious, but you could just download something like the free Kingsoft Office app and create a spreadsheet on your Android device, PC, or Mac (which would also be viewable on Android devices, PCs, Macs, etc. with standard spreadsheet software like Microsoft Excel, Open Office (free open source), or Google Docs. You could also keep the spreadsheet on a free cloud server storage box like Box.com, SkyDrive, Google Drive, SugarSync, Dropbox, et al, so that it would be accessible from any Android device, PC, Mac, etc. If you use Google Docs then it would automatically be cloud-based and accessible to all devices.

The benefits of a spreadsheet is that it's:
* Infinitely customizable.
* Usable across multiple devices.
* Easy to back-up old data.
* Data can be processed (so e.g. you could calculate calories burned or graph progress).

The downside of a spreadsheet is that:
* It may be hard to use on a small-screen device.
* You have to know how to use a spreadsheet.

Would work except for the fact I HAAAAAATE spreadsheets. We actually have people in my department where I know their names, but I don't know what their job duties actually are. To me one is "powerpoint person" and one is "spreadsheet person"

On a side note, I just discovered this. Pretty simple, but easy to use.
