Weekly Workout Template (V1)
This template allows you to create a workout plan for the entire week by selecting workout variables such as exercise, reps, sets, etc., using drop-down menus. It is more suited for beginner and intermediate trainees since it allows you to track only the total reps for all sets of a given exercise.
Weekly Workout Template (V2)
This one is similar to the V1 template but offers more workout-tracking options such as the ability to track reps and weights for each set. Therefore, this template is better suited for people who are already comfortable with workout planning, want more control, and ability to track results in more detail.
Monthly Workout Schedule
This is a simple Google Docs workout calendar that allows you to plan your workouts for the entire month. You can use it to track which days of the week you train, and when you plan to take rest days. It’s a useful tool that gives a high-level overview of your workout schedule for the month.

This is a simple, single-day workout program template. It contains space for you to write in the exercise name, number of sets, rest periods, reps, and weight for each set. Note that all data needs to be entered manually.
Weekly Workout Template
This is a one-page workout template that covers six days of the week. It’s best for people who people just starting out with workout planning, without too many workout details.
Monthly Workout Template
