I would recommend logging exercises, weights, sets and reps. Then base the quality of your workout on whether you exceeded the previous workout. Base it on improvement. You can get pumps all day long doing x sets of y exercise with z weight for n reps every day, but if that is all you ever...
First, don't listen to the magazines.
Second, the "pump" is absolutely no indicator to the performance or quality of your workout. It is simply an increase in blood flow to those muscles, but has no coorelation with muscle hypertrophy (ie growth).
