How to know if you had a good workout? Here are some signs that indicate that you have really done well...
What's a good workout? Well, if your workout is intense, if it challenges you, pushes your limits and excites you till the end, then it is a good workout.
Yes, intense workouts are better than normal workouts. They offer better results. Even 20 minutes of intense workouts only thrice a week give better results than 60 minutes of workouts 7 times a week.

So, intensity matters more when you workout. Your whole body needs to be engaged and challenged. Here are some signs of a good workout...
Appetite
Do you feel like eating something soon after you step out of the gym? That's a sign that you had done well in the gym. Eat within 20-25 minutes. Your body will make good use of the food as fuel. Also, muscle recovery needs nutrients.
Sleep
After you hit the bed, you easily fall asleep and directly wake up in the morning, feeling fresh.

Muscles
Did your muscles swell? When you lift heavy weights or do any intense workout, more blood is pumped into your muscles. More blood brings more nutrients and oxygen. So, they bulge temporarily. For a few hours, you tend to look bigger. That's a sign you have done well.
Feel Good
Do you feel good for no reason after stepping out of the gym? Its a sign that you had a good workout. It releases endorphins which make you feel euphoric.
Last Rep
During your workout, was the last repetition tough? It is a sign that your workout went intense.
Heart Rate
Your heart rate varies a lot. If you have a heart rate monitor, you will be able to know that you had a good workout.

Sore Muscles
You will feel sore for more than a day if your workout is intense.
You need to rest for a day and eat enough protein to help your sore muscles recover. But wait, as your body gets used to the intensity of the exercise soreness seldom occurs. So, you can't rely only on soreness all the time to call your workout a good one.
