I don't know that I "enjoy" my time at the gym, but it is the base layer for some of my other goals - I do enjoy the way my body is changing and how I feel.
I enjoy seeing the streak and watching the progress bar move slowly across the screen as I progress for the year. I can see that if I go 18.6 times per month, I will hit the goal by the end of the year - and I can also see I may need to adjust because the number of obstacles keeps increasing.

Yes, super cool. Could you teach me how to do a progress bar when you have time? I Googled for the method but couldn’t find it. Haha

You can use the
sparkline function in Google Sheets to create a progress bar.

I also use an app called Habit Tracker, which lets me "check-in" for things every day, but I don't think there is a "yearly goal" feature - but you can see your totals for the year, month, etc. I also like some of the charts in can generate, where you can see your patters over time.

I can also see my gym check-ins in my gym's app ...
Try a few things and see what works for you.

Thank you for this n for being so prompt! Seems easy enough even for a tech noob like me.

In my Google Sheet, I have a line that automatically tracks the year progress (currently day 164 of the year)
Then I track my goal % progress against the year % progress, to see if I am on schedule
