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!

100525 "Fran"

Warm up:- a few arm swings, over-n-unders, lat and front raises, band dislocates with ohs x 5, 10 abmat situps, 10 abmat back extenstions, 10 push ups against pin 5 (straight thru pretty easy so go pin4 from now on), 3 blue band assist chin ups

“Fran”
Three rounds, 21-15- and 9 reps, for time of:
95 pound Thruster
Pull-ups

Last time Fran came up we recommended going as close to RX’d as possible.  This time we want you to move fast.

I scaled to one of the recommend variations of 9 sets of 5 each exercise but kept the same 14kg / 30lb weight and same blue band assist pull ups the same as last time to see if there was a difference.

Done in 9.49 mins NEW PR compared to 11 mins 100112

I did all chin up today with a little jump assist for reps 3-5 in the later rounds
It actually felt slow and the weight felt heavy to my surprise but PR by 1.11 secs isn’t too bad is it?

Cash out:- Bench press 7kg x 3, 12kg x 3 3RM 17kg - 22kg -22kg again width wider grip - 27kg - 30kg / 66lb PR by 2kg / 4lb
wasn’t at my limit but after Fran wasn’t going to stupidly push and was pleased with progress as I need to get my push ups back.

NB synergy sachet taken PWO again
