A weight training log allows for optimal progress. Too much or too little weight may be used if resistance is not recorded. If too much weight is used, form may suffer and injury is more likely. If too little weight is used, the body does not have to adapt to an overload (muscular strength, muscular size, power, increased bone density, joint integrity, increased metabolism, etc.).
