Funny you should say that... I was thinking it. I use paper and pencil, but would loke to chart it out??
The training log is the one that supports Joe Friel's Training Bible.
Off to swim and run!

I use excel so I can graph and create my own data/calculations. I started using trifuel but refuse to divert away from excel. My nutritional log makes people $#%! themselves...it's pretty amusing to see.

How is the TriFuel log? I've never used a log before and wonder if you find any log useful in training and what kinds of input you glean from using the tool.

I have used: My own Excel spreadsheet, Sportracks, Training Peaks, Garmin Training Center, Fitday, WKO+, Poweragent.
I settled on using WKO+. In order of preference, I'd use WKO+, Sportracks, My Excel Spreadsheet then the others.
I did try and like the TriFuel training log for a little while, but I didn't like having to wait until I could log online to enter data, and didn't like having to enter data from devices when I could download them into other systems.
To tri or not to tri - that's not a question at all!

I use the log on BT, which has a simple interface and a weekly volume graph I like. I used this before I discovered Trifuel, and have just stayed with it. Truth be told, I've been too lazy to check out the T'Fuel log.

I like the Trifuel log. I also use WKO+ but really only for the bike. I like how I can have tons of sports in the TF log. I also like being able to log them online -- since then I can do so from any of my computers.

I use mapmyride.com's log...it's really basic but I already draw up my routes and have them saved there, so I might as well save the workouts. I also use triblogs.com as it has a little better breakdown since it's tri-specific (I believe it's a british or australian website) and I like to take my personal notes on my workouts there.
Both are simplistic but give me an idea of weekly hours/distance/pace, etc... and most importantly they're free and easy to use.
I would use trifuel but was already on these two and don't see any reason to switch, so...

I got frustrated when I lost all the data from my Garmin Training Center once from moving it to another PC, and then again after I upgraded it. Now I put it on Trifuel's log so it's available and hopefully will stay there.

I use the Trifuel log to track details and I created a calendar out of a spreadsheet in Google Docs to do my training plan, race schedule, and it gives me a quick visual on how I'm doing for the month/week. I could use the calendar in the Trifuel log, but I'd have to find a workaround to do any planning on it.

I've been using Gyminee (www.gyminee.com).
I like the iPhone component, since I can access routines at the gym.

I've been using the TF log and really like the flexibility - an iPhone hook would rock.

What would the iphone hook do? Would this be just a minimal interface for viewing on an iphone?

I've been using both Trifuel and Active Trainer for my training log needs, but something Socket said in another thread reminded me that I don't really care much for Active.com (think it's a rip off).So I'm curious: what training log do you use? Do you go online, or use plain old paper and pencil?
