I've started weight training and I'm in my 4th week now. I'm seeing big improvements. Now I want to start tracking my workouts & diet. Is there a software or a website which allows me to do that?

1meta.fitness.stackexchange.com/q/209/3778 for a list of applications. Also, if you want to craft your own, Google Forms combined with Excel et al are quite useful.– FredrikDAug 10, 2014 at 12:55

thesquatrack.com which is still in beta seems to be promising.– clawsAug 12, 2014 at 19:59

I use a variety of apps.
Fitocracy is good for tracking workouts. It's gameified (you get points and levels for your workouts, and there are achievements) which can be fun and motivating.
MyFitnessPal is good for tracking your diet. It has a large database of nutritional info of food, so the hardest part is recording an accurate portion size.
If you do a lot of running/cycling/rowing, then Runkeeper may also be useful. It plugs in to Fitocracy and MyFitnessPal nicely.
I made Evertrainer.com as a lightweight program builder/tracker. Might be a good solution for your workout tracking.
Here's quick gif of it, to give you a sense of it:
