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!

100423 HPC and burpees

Warm up:- arm swings/rotations, knee highs, side to side lunges with overhead press, kstarr’s over’n’unders. 10 push ups against pin 5, 10 HPC @ 10kg, 3 squat thrusts.

100423
Puppies + ‘cup mix
Three rounds for time of:
15-25 pound Hang power cleans, 12 reps - I did 27lb / 12kg
10 squat thrusts

Done in 5.45mins

Good metcon - my squats thrusts although still torture feel like they are actually making progress - feeling much better and more fluid - really pleased.

I really need to get my weakness sorted so that I can up the scaling a little - there seems to be one part of most wods that I can't do past buttercup/puppies grrrrr - but it's getting there slowly - I should probably just be more patient hey? My weights are gradully increasing nicely but the bodyweight stuff is very slow grrrr

These HPC were easy peasy for me today I really should have upped the weight more but noted for next time.

Cash out:- Bench press:- 10kg x 5, 15 x 5, 20 x 3, 25 x 3, 1RM’s 30-32-33-34-35 New PR by 2 kg bigsmile 
That's a half my Bodyweight Bench for me - yay me
