Technology + Fitness = Love

Some people, when confronted with a problem with their fitness levels, think "I know, I'll install some iPhone apps." Now they have two problems.

(I couldn't resist that one. )

That said, it's absolutely a great idea to track your exercise program. I go the dinosaur route and use emacs to edit a file called "exercise.org". Once your plan is laid out, it's very easy to push yourself each workout by marginally increasing things each session (or every two sessions, or whatever).

Even more importantly, careful notes help you notice patterns. I recently observed that deadlift -> lower back pain.

Anyone use anything else to track fitness? I'm looking at Nike+ for running. Anyone with experience using it?
