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!

100402 "Tabata Something Else"

Warm up:- arm swings/rotations, knee highs, side to side lunges with overhead press, 5 air squats, 5 green assist chin ups, 5 push ups against thigh (pin 5) high bar, 5 abmat situps.

“Tabata Something Else”
Complete 32 intervals of 20 seconds of work followed by ten seconds of rest where the first 8 intervals are pull-ups, the second 8 are push-ups, the third 8 intervals are sit-ups, and finally, the last 8 intervals are squats. There is no rest between exercises.
Buttercups:
Do three rounds of work:

PU 9-9-8 - assisted with green band
PU 8-8-8 - against thigh high bar
SU 7-7-7 - abmat with arms across chest, unanchored
lost a bit of time as downloaded rocky tabata music and after 4 mins it went strange and wasn't sure where I was ie 10 or 20 secs so restarted the track and carried on
Sq 10-10-11

Total 102 Tabata Score 33

I wanted to do it the same as last tme to compare to, which I did except the pull ups - I got on the black band and it just felt silly so I went green instead. My left bicep is still sore.

Compared to Oct 09...
PU 14-11-9 - assisted with black band
PU 7-6-6 - against thigh high bar
SU 5-6-6 - abmat with arms across chest, unanchored
lost a bit of time as downloaded rocky tabata music and after 4 mins it went strange and wasn't sure where I was ie 10 or 20 secs so restarted the track and carried on
S 10-8-8

Total 96 Tabata Score 28

Next time I will do Blue band assist, pin 4 bar, and arms assist abmat situps.

Cash out:- Hanging KTE attempts x 2,3, Hanging tuck sit x 10 secs x 3
