How to Log a Workout on the Exercise.com Website

Step 1: Look for the Log Workout button on the menu bar.

To log a workout, click on the orange “Log Workout” button on the upper right side of your dashboard.

Step 2: Choose what kind of workout to log.

Then choose to log a workout through your scheduled workout plan, a different workout from your workout plan, a favorite workout, or a custom workout.

To log a scheduled workout (if you’re following a workout plan), select “Your scheduled workout.” Then fill in the time, distance, reps, or weight as needed. Add sets if necessary.

To log an unscheduled workout, click “Another workout from the current plan.” Choose a week from the workout plan, and then select an exercise. Fill in the stats from your workout and adjust the reps if needed.

To log a favorite workout, select “Favorite Workout.” Choose a favorite workout from the list (click here to learn how to save a workout as a “Favorite Workout”). Enter the stats from your workout. 

Step 3: Add exercises to your workout.

Once you’re in the logger, you can type the exercises that you completed during your workout into the exercise search box on the left side of the page and add them to your workout for that day.

Also, you can choose an exercise from the “My Favorite Exercises” or “Recent Exercises” boxes on the left side of the page. Then enter your workout stats.

Step 4: Log the workout!

Once you’ve entered the necessary information into the workout log, click “Log Workout” at the bottom of the page.

Your workout will be logged, and the stats will appear in your workout journal as well as on the Exercise.com activity feed.
