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!

Saturday 100109 Fran

Warm up= arm swings/rotations, knee highs and side to side lunges with overhead press, 10 abmat situps with arms cross chest feet unachored butterfly, 10 abmat back extensions, 10 dislocates, 10 air squats. Thrusters with dowel x 3, with 10kg x 3, 3 blue band assisted pull ups

Saturday 100109
“Fran”
Three rounds, 21-15- and 9 reps, for time of:
95 pound Thruster - scaled to 14kg / 30lb
Pull-ups - blue band assisted

Done in 11.00 mins
Splits were 4.15,4.09,2.35

Well I did it, my wrists were really complaining throughout after last 2 days and boy I needed more oxygen phew!! I completed the rx'd reps with reduced weight so I'm pleased :-) a pr of sorts lol.

This is my 3rd Fran but the first 2 were with pulldowns as sub so this is my first with pull ups even tho they were assisted so overall great progress I think.

Cash out:- tried decline situps on 45 degree decline bench - I did 10 without too much trouble much to my surprise. I remember trying one about 12 months ago and decided it was a no-go not again! How times change - thanks to Crossfit and Brand X.
