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!

100510
Puppies:
Five rounds for time of:
10 Dumbbell shoulder press, 5-15# - I used 7kg / 15lb for rounds 1 & 2 then dropped a kg for the rest of the rounds 6kg / 13lb
5-15# Dumbbell Squat clean, 10 reps - I used 7kg / 15lb for rounds 1 & 2 then dropped a kg for the rest of the rounds 6 kg / 13lb
10 Beginner or assisted pull ups - blue band assisted at pin 5 - first 2 rounds were all chins with some jumping assist, then switched to mix of chin and pulls with jump assist were nec.

Done in 19.57 mins phew (I think GD has been listening to me wanting to up the work level and time to about 20 mins lol as the last 2 wods have been that way without me even trying lol)

Splits Rnd 1 = 3.20 mins
Rnd 2 = 4.17,
removed a kg from both db's = 0.40,
Rnd 3 = 3.25,
Rnd 4 = 4.22
Rnd 5 = 3.50 with adrenaline push to finish lol

Tough but great in an insane crossfit way  ;-) Chins were tough as biceps were tender from yesterday sdhps. Shoulder press was the main reason for the drop in weight but I think I would have struggled to finish or just took all day lol so target next time is all rounds with 7kg

Had 2 scoops of Phd det way with handfull of nuts as pre workout instead salmon salad and energy levels were much better - no drop today :)
