Practice equates to progress but logging practice does not leverage progress.
If logging is the intent of qualifying practice for gains in progress may I suggest recording all practice sessions? In those recordings the real worth of their measure of progress will be revealed in the honesty of the playing quality, which is the only thing that really counts.

I do record at least one practice session a week, typically on the weekend, just for a reference point. I will go back at times and listen to one from six months ago and hear the difference.
Logging will allow me to see what I have done maybe a month or two months ago without having to sort through audio files. Just kind of something to help focus practice sessions on improving. I also divide practice from play.
