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 100219

Warm up:- arm swings/rotations, 10 abmat situps with arms cross chest feet unachored butterfly inc 5 with 1 kg, 10 abmat back extensions, 10 knee highs, a few over and unders, 10 push ups against upper thigh high bar, warmed up muscles with 12kg bar for couple of deadlifts, hang power clean, push press, then a couple of thrusters.  Then a couple more thrusters with 15kg

Puppies+
Three rounds for max reps (not to exceed 20) of:
10-25# thruster - I upscaled to to 22% of BW = 33lb / 15kg
Pull-ups (beginner or assisted okay) - blue band assist with feet together giving least assistance
Rd 1 = 13 NEW PR / 6
Rd 2 = 10 / 5
Rd 3 = 8 / 4

Different sort of wod but I enjoyed it. My wrists were not too happy after yesterdays cleans and by front delts were burning - went to failure on each round ie till I couldn’t complete a thurster and I couldn’t get my chin over the bar.

Cash out:- max reps push ups with increasing difficulty - started with lower thigh high bar which is 3rd pin from the bottom of rack = 8 and failed 9th.
2nd pin = 4 and failed 5th.
1st pin which is just below knee = 2 and failed 3rd.
