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!

100520 185 rack to OH x 20, Burpees x 40

Warm up:- normal combo + decline situps x 5, bench dips with legs at 45 and then straight, got my EXF rings today WAHOO  party so had to try them out with some ring rows and support holds, tried a false grip too.
10kg press x 3, push press x 3, push jerk x 3 and then 15kg push jerk x 3, 2 burpees

100520 185 rack to OH x 20, Burpees x 40
Puppies:
25-45 pound barbell, Shoulder to overhead, 15 reps - I did 45lb / 20kg
30 Burpees

Partition as needed, any order. - push jerks x 3 reps x 5 (all deadlifted and hand cleaned to rack), burpees 5 reps x 6

Done in 8.51 mins

Pretty pleased with todays wod - I originally planned to go with 17kg / 37lb with 5 reps but at the last minute figured I should push harder to get stronger and so I went with the top of the puppies scale of 45lb / 20kg and although tough I did it and was pleased with form throughout.
Burpees on the other hand hmm overall pleased I got them done and didn't drop to squat thrusts so obviously getting better but my form was pretty sloppy - sloppy trying to be fast as I was aiming for the target of 7 mins, but also lack of room, my barbell was on the floor in front of me as I went down into push up and had to work hard not to head but it so that really didnt help either!

Trying to find time to move some furniture about to make more room!

Cash out:-Chins with blue band assist at pin 5 x 3, pin 4 x 3, pin 3 x 2 failed both chin to bar but not over, took a min or so breather and retried pin 3 x 1, 1 yay me.
Push ups at pin 1 x 3 - failed 3rd rep grrrr
