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!

Friday 100129

Warm up:- Warm up= arm swings/rotations, 10 abmat situps with arms cross chest feet unachored butterfly, 10 abmat back extensions, 10 knee highs, 3 HSPU to test height of assistance box = 8 inch, 5 beginner pull ups with bar at chest height, 3 push ups against upper thigh high bar balanced on right foot

Friday 100129
Puppies:
6 minutes Handstand push-ups - 50 - I did beginner HSPU with knees on 8" box
3 minutes Squats -38 - was very wary of these because of foot and the balance needed so I held on to a corner of my rack
2 minutes Pull-ups - 24 - I did beginner pull ups with bar at chest height, right foot about 3 foot away, left foot just resting on heel
2 minute Push-ups - 17 - against upper thigh high bar balanced on right foot (this should have been 1 min but i set the timer wrong DOH and did 2 instead)

Total reps 129

Cash out:- 5 chin ups with green band assist on one foot flat on the floor and no jump to try a more strict and greater ROM than I normally do for warm up or wods - felt pretty easy, so did another 5 with blue band same principal - tough for sure but felt good, felt it more in my biceps than normal so will try some more of these - I think it was the slight feet push assist (making it a little more like jumping pull up) that has stalled my chin up progress DOH! we learn something everyday don't we.
