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!

PWO nutrition notes

After watching one of the recent journal vids about PWO nutrition - Boz - Adrian Bozman mention that he does a 1:1 ratio of protein to carbs PWO - usually 40grams of each!

I always take PHD recovery after wods and thats a 1:2 ratio 24 grams Protein to 48 grams Carbs and my recovery isn't as good as it could be - so thinking back to when I tried pharma whey with battery (carbs) I thought I'd try a change...

So last two wods I've done 400mls water, 1.5 scoops Pharma whey = 30 grams Protein and 1.75 scoops of battery = 30 grams carbs and my recovery seems to be noticabley better - a little soon to tell for sure but my post workout shaking stops quicker with this mix and after my long session today on just 1 meal ( I usually have had one meal and one snack before wods) I felt great so very promising I think.
