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!

Thurs 100415 "McGhee"

Warm up= arm swings/rotations, knee highs, side to side lunges with overhead press, kstarr's over'n'unders.
3 push ups at pin 7, 3 at pin 5 and 3 at pin 4, 5 dl's with 10kg, 3 box jumps at 8"

Thursday 100415 "McGhee"
PuppyCup mix
Complete as many rounds in 20 minutes as you can of:
65 pound / 30kg Deadlift, 5 reps
10 Push-ups (progressions okay) against bar at pin 5
9 Box jumps, 15-20 inch box - scaled to 8" foot still getting stronger will try to find something higher next time

I did 10 rounds +DL's + PU's

I actually enjoyed this wod.
I did the push ups at pin 5 because I knew I could get 10 without maxing out each time but they still got tough after round 5 - had to take a few extra breaths and also varied my grip width from shoulder, to a couple of inch wider to wide grip which helped as the other muscles helped the tired ones.
My box jumps seem much better and I kept a good rhythm it felt good.
Had a few shooting pains thru right glute during 3 of the DL's - not sure why but it was already tender and moaning from yesterday.

RIP McGhee
