Welcome to my fitness log

I've created this to keep everything to do with my fitness journey in one place for easy reference.
I've listed links to places I visit regularly or places I think are interesting or valuable resources.

I started doing Crossfit September 22nd 2009 and I loved it - it's totally awesome and it made me a better person in so many different ways!

After nearly 4 years of Crossfit and wrist injury I tried a home fitness DVD for a change and something new - Rip 60 was really great and then I found Beachbody / Tony Horton's P90X!
It's THE best home fitness program ever!!!
It changed my body in so many amazing ways and got my cardio fitness, my core and overall strength including push up strength better than ever before!!

I now do many Beachbody programs as they are all so great.
I 'm a big Tony Horton fan because he makes me work hard but makes me laugh at the same time.
After I completed P90X, I did P90X3, P90X2 and some P90X+. I''ve tried other Beachbody programs including the P90, Piyo, Focus T25,
21 Day Fix Extreme, Country Heat, BodyBeast and Insanity, The Aslyum 1 and 2. Completed 21 Day Fix and 22 Min hard Core.

Did some Insanity Max 30 and Core de Force but my knees can't handle jumping every day so I have to mix them in.
Shift shop is great and looking forward to the new 80 Day obsession.

I'm the fittest I've ever been in my life and still getting stronger every day!

Bodybeast Build Back and Bi's

So after a very dodgy migraine today and a rough tummy I didn't think I was going to get anything done today but I perked up and push through and I'm so glad I did.

Really enjoyed Build back and Bi's, increased my deadlift again, increased my EZ bar Row and got lots more assisted pull ups (as in all 30 for the first time) and chin ups too - Wahoo!!!

I actually think I dropped my calories too low so I'm going to increase so I can function properly and see how I go.

Bodybeast Build Chest & Tris

Enjoyed this tonight, was good to get back to some straight chest press instead all upper pecs. Was good to work Tri's swell - felt like I got a workout in, better than the single body parts.
Went well overall.

P90X Cardio X

Did this for the first time tonight and it was good fun. Really good combo of the other dvd's. After a good warm up, we get stuck into some yoga, then do some kenpo and then some plyo.

Great fun combination without going crazy!!!

BodyBeast Total Body

Tried this for a change tonight and it was ok - Not as much fun as Total body with Tony H. but pretty ok. It did hit a lot of different muscle groups in one session which is pretty cool.

P90X+ Total Body Plus

Wow this was excellent tonight - some transition are little fast and I had to pause to write down but really great workout - it works everything!!! Loved it!!!

Didn't go heavy with the weights but did manage to get some unassisted chin ups, well with a little toe on the wall!
