Totally agree. Consider the simple act of copying a file. Will it retain the original date or start fresh? There is a correct answer, but maybe it depends on the operating system, or the program you're using to do the copy. But I don't care. "Ain't nobody got time for that." When I want to know the creation date or if I just want a unique name I add a the date as a suffix; 022125. It also helps that it's much easier to see at a glance.
I lift weight 3 times a week an hour each day. Look into Starting Strength, 5x5, or any simple programs that focus on progressive overloading. I got to 405 lbs squat and deadlift at 170 lbs bodyweight this way. Measure your progress similar to how you measure your metrics in a startup
