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 100116

Warm up= arm swings/rotations, knee highs and side to side lunges with overhead press, 10 abmat situps with arms straight (to help as abs still hurt aarrgghh) feet unachored butterfly, 10 abmat back extensions, 10 dislocates, 10 ohsquats.

SATURDAY 100116
With a continuously running clock, squat for 60 seconds. Subtract the number of squats completed from 60, and do that many pull-ups in minute two. In minute three, squat again, subtracting the number completed from 60. Do that number of push-ups in minute four. Minute five is squatting again, and minute six pull-ups.
The pattern is squats, pull-ups, squats, push-ups, squats, pull-ups, etc. The goal is to stay within the workout’s formula for as long as possible.
Don’t do more than 60 squats in any round.
In any case, stay moving for 12 minutes.

Rd 1 Sq 30, PU 15, Sq 22, PU 12
Rd 2 Sq 22, PU 13, Sq 20, PU 10
Rd 1 Sq 18, PU 11, Sq 17, PU 10

Total 200 - Sq 129, Pull ups (blue band assisted with fett about 18" apart) 39, Push ups (against mid thigh bar) 32

Well what can I say but OMG!!!!!
This was tough, tough, tough - fast squats are not my thing me thinks. First time doing it so not that bad I guess but lots to improve on.

It was pretty intense but I recovered quicker than I thought so fitness must be improving.
