How can you use a workout tracker to keep up with weekly training goals?
Short answer
Use a weekly workout tracker with a Yes / No rating for each session, and turn on Rate more than once so you can record several workouts in the same week. Add a Goal reminder based on the number of ratings you want each week. Review the chart to notice how your routine is changing, including weeks when plans shift.
Plan for the week you actually have
Some weeks have room for several workouts; others get crowded by work, family plans, or plain low energy. A weekly target gives you a clear point to aim for without requiring the same routine every day. The useful question is not whether every session went perfectly, but whether your training pattern is moving in a direction that works for you.
In Moodrate, one weekly Tracker can hold several workout ratings in the same period. That means you can record each session as it happens and check your weekly total against a goal. Start with a target that feels realistic for your current schedule, then adjust it if your chart shows it is consistently too easy or too hard.

Set up sessions, not perfect workouts
Create a Tracker for completed training sessions. Choose a Yes / No Rating scale: each rating records whether a workout happened, rather than asking you to judge how impressive it was. Set the rhythm to Weekly and turn on Rate more than once, so every session can be recorded within that week.
Then add a Goal reminder that watches the number of ratings per week and reminds you when you have not yet met your target. This makes the Tracker a simple goal tracker as well as a habit tracker. If a session changes or gets skipped, record what happened honestly; the point is to see your real pattern, not to make the chart look tidy.

Make the streak yours
Moodrate's Achievements include a Daily streak, which counts days when you rated any Tracker. It is not a workout-only weekly streak, so it may not match a routine where you train on selected days.
For a simple view of weekly momentum, you can add a second Tracker called Weekly training goal met. Give it a Yes / No scale and a Weekly rhythm, then rate it once at the end of the period. Its chart can help you notice consecutive weeks when you met your target. It does not create an automatic workout streak, and a week below target is information, not a reason to give up.
Keep the target flexible enough to survive an ordinary busy week. A missed session or a lower-activity week can be part of the picture. Use the pattern to decide what you want to try next, rather than treating a single rating as a verdict.

Review without turning it into a test
After a few weeks, open Statistics and look at the pattern over time. You might notice that your routine holds up better on certain weeks, or that your chosen target needs a small change. The goal is to make your training visible enough to learn from, not to pressure yourself into a perfect streak.
Moodrate is a tracker, not a training plan. Keep the setup easy to maintain, and let your own ratings show what your weeks really look like.
