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!

100223 Crossfit Total

Day 4 of My personal push up & chin up challenge:- push ups against pin 2 x 8 reps (4,3,1) , chin ups with blue band feet together x 8 reps (3,3,1,1) done this morning.

Warm up:- arm swings/rotations, knee highs, 10 abmat situps with arms cross chest feet unachored butterfly, 10 abmat back extensions, 5 dislocates with 5 o/h air squats, 5 push ups against pin 2

Tuesday 100223
“CrossFit Total”
Back squat, 1 rep
Shoulder Press, 1 rep
Deadlift, 1 rep -

BS - warm ups 17kg x 5, 27kg x 3, 37 kg x 2, 47kg x 2,
50kg x 1 = Equal last CFT, 55kg x 1 = Equal Current PB 56kg x 1 = NEW PB

SP - 7kg x 3, 12kg x 3, 17kg x 2,
22kg x 1, 25kg x 1 = Equal Current PB, 26kg x1 = F

DL - 12kg x 5, 22kg x 3, 32kg x 2, 42kg x 2, 52kg x 1,
62kg x 1, 72kg x 1 = F (set up was not quite right and dropped the weight forward), 72kg x 1 = = Equal Current PB

Crossfit Total of 56+25+72 = 153kg / 337lbs up 10kg / 22lbs
Compared to 091212 of 143kg / 315lb

Really pleased considering I've been below par for 3 weeks with my foot - my target was to match my current PB's if poss which I knew would give me a new CFT. My shoulder press was sheer willpower I think - slow and steady but got it up there and the DL was shakylegged but one of those 'I know I can I know I can' moments - phew. When I equalled my sqaut PB I knew I could do another kg so went for it  :n_bigsmile:
