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!

100410 Back squat and handstnd walks / bear crawls

Warm up= arm swings/rotations, knee highs, side to side lunges with overhead press, 5 abmat butterfly situps unanchored with arms cross chest, 5 abmat situps butterfly unanchored with arms side of head, 10 abmat back exentions last 5 with 2.5kg plate help to chest,
Was reading about shoulder on miltary.com and so did a warm up version of the ‘best shoulder workout’ - 5 lateral raises palm down, 5 lateral raises thumb up, 5 lateral raises thumb down, 5 front raises, 5 o/h press, 5 crossovers.


Cash in:- After my lightbulb moment this morning wanted to try more so I did red mini band (at pin 2) assisted push ups x 3,3,1, band dislocates with o/h sqaut x 3,3,3,1 alternating with push ups.

100410
Puppies:
Three rounds for time of
25- 45 pound Back squat, 12 reps - I did 45lb / 20kg
Handstand walk 12 yards - sub bear crawls

Done in 6.20 mins

It seems a long time since I’ve done many back squats and they slowed me a little today. Bear crawls seemed much easier today than last tme I tried them.

Cash out:- was so please with my push ups from earlier that I wondered if I can do any at pin 1 - I tried and managed 2 bigsmile
Tried again with band at pin 1 still but with push up bars (less assistance as body higher plus increased ROM) - just managed 1.
Decided to push my look and try an unassisted one but nope failed.
Tried again with band at pin 2 but still with push up bars x 1 and then failed next. - the increased ROM made my shoulder winge a little so called it quits.
Hanging KTE attemps x 5,4,1
