Hello all,

I recently started working out again, and started thinking can I track my workouts using emacs org mode.

What I basically envision is tracking what exercises I did in a given day, repetitions and weights. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Not quite what you're after, but i track mine with org-habits, setting a recurrent timestamp. You can also add a note for each state change.

It's very cumbersome for things that should happen more than once a day or less than a certain number of times a day. It also needs some extra tooling if you want to track performance metrics, etc.

Yeah this is somewhat the direction I am going I think, trying to figure out clocking with properties to track my progression currently.
