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!

Rest day for me today but after getting my mum to watch Rip's DVD she was ready to take a look at my technique for deadlift, and power clean.
So I did a few reps wth empty 7kg bar and then 12kg and only a couple comments so I was pretty pleased

When you train alone it's hard to know that what you think is right actually is - you can't watch your bar path etc so it was good to have a few minutes of someone else checking my form. I know she's no expert or coach or anything but it was better than nothing and I feel more confident that what I'm doing is pretty good so I'm happier = good day.

I know I should video myself and post it for comments but the room I workout in is so small than I can't get a video camera far enough away to see all of me!!!! When the weather warms up I will try taking by bar outside and videoing myself, to get some professional tips .
