Find a Workout Plan That Works for You
Not everyone plans exercises the same way, as routines and fitness goals vary from person to person. In this template collection, you will find different layouts that match your requirements.
Workout planning can take different forms depending on training style and goals. Some people use training splits such as full-body, upper and lower body, or push, pull, and legs, while others plan around weekly or daily schedules. Exercise routines can also be goal-based, focusing on strength, muscle gain, weight loss, endurance, or general fitness.
You can also plan your workouts by type, including strength training, cardio, HIIT, yoga, or mixed routines, and include reps, sets, information, etc.
Apart from how workouts are structured, they can also be planned over different timeframes depending on your routine and goals.
If your goal is consistency and your routine changes often, then you may prefer a simple daily planner. If you want to have your entire week scheduled in advance, a weekly planner works better. It can help balance workouts, recovery days, and cardio sessions in one place. If you have a long-term fitness goal, a monthly or yearly planner can be more useful.
This collection of workout planner templates is designed to support all of these approaches, giving you the flexibility to plan and track your training in a way that fits your routine and goals.
Using and Customizing Your Workout Planner Templates
Start by picking the layout that matches how you want to plan your workouts.
Before printing, edit and customize the template. Add your name, trainer name, BMI, steps, weight, calories burned, goals, and workout progress.
You can add personal touches by adding or removing sections, rows, columns, headings, and changing colors. You can also change fonts, shapes, or graphics to match your fitness style and routine. Google Docs format works well for online editing, while Microsoft Word is suitable for offline editing. PDF is good if you need a fill-and-go solution.
Lastly, print out a few copies and keep them where you train. You can stick them on a wall, pin them to a clipboard, keep them in your gym bag, or use them with client folders if you are a coach or personal trainer.
If you are using it digitally, just fill in the editable sections, and it is easy to use on a tablet & phone.
During or after each training session, write down the main details in an exercise log to properly track your progress and consistency. Choose from a variety of workout log templates to create a complete system of health and fitness tracking.
Create a Routine that Fits Your Lifestyle
A workout planner can help maintain consistency in your health and fitness journey. But to make the most of it, plan exercises and routines that are realistic and flexible. If you are creating a plan for yourself, do your research and consult a fitness coach to get more insights about your body requirements.
