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!

Tuesday 091124

Warm up= arm swings/rotations, 10 abmat situps with arms cross chest feet unachored, 10 abmat back extensions, 10 push ups at mid thigh high bar, 10 green band assist chin ups (wahoo new PR and progress), 10 o/h squats with dowel. ( my knees were clicking really badly - grrr to them burpees)

Empty 7kg bar x 5 all all movements, 10kg x 5 SP's, 15kg x 3 SP's

Shoulder press 1-1-1-1-1 reps
Push press 3-3-3-3-3 reps
Push Jerk 5-5-5-5-5 reps

SP - 20-22-24-25-26f - cleaned it but failed to lift it but still a great PR by 2kg
PP - 20f jerked 2 of 3 trys because weight too heavy-15-17-18-19 New PR by 2kg
PJ - 15-17-18-19-20 sort of failed ie did 4 reps fine but push pressed the last rep with no jerk but still a great PR by 3kg

Great workout - really pleased with new PR's = awesome. Much better than I thought. I can't believe how naturally automatic that jerk came with the 20kg for PP - strange but true.
I cleaned them all too - thought it might help my clean technique - it's getting there I think. I hit my coller bone a couple of times, and found changing from clean / 3 fingers under bar position to full hold push grip a little awkward with the heavier weights but I think my wrist flexibility is getting there slowly.
