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!

Done in 12.57 mins PR by over a min wink


Pleased it was quicker than the other day, KB well DB swings were unbroken this time as I didn’t get that pain again so that was good, I tried to do the same as the other day to compare but def pushed towards the end watching the seconds tick by so that helped - always helps to have a goal!!

Cash out:- wanted to see how my push ups were doing so did bar at pin 1 x 3, then tried 8” box for 3 again but got 1 and failed 2nd rep, rested and tried again, same 1 then fail, rested and got another 1. decided muscle were too tired.
Tried for some chin ups - pin 4 x 1, pin 3 x failed, tried again only got chin to bar but not over so def too tired give up for today.
