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!

101117 & 101120

101117 Handstand Hold, Squat Hold, L-sit Hold, Chin over bar Hold

Complete as many rounds as possible in 20 minutes of:
30 second Plank hold - all unbroken in push up position
30 second Squat hold - all unbroken
30 second tuck sit hold - 3rd round was hanging tuck sit - all broken 2-4 times
30 second Assisted Chin over bar hold - all broken 3-4 times and last round struggled to get chin over the bar. Although I used blue band to help me get up there, it wasn't really offering any support at the top!

I did 4 rounds and 3/4!


Really tough I thought - I can't beleive how much it made me sweat just holding the positions , plank and sqaut were fine but the other other two were tough.

Had a sip of water and after a few reps of each to w/u did

101120 HSPU, Deadlift, C2B Pull-ups, Double-Unders

Puppies:
Five rounds for time of:
5 Handstand push-up progressions - knees on 11" box
25-45 pound Deadlift, 10 reps - 45lb / 20kg
10 Beginner or assisted pull-ups - Beg ring rows, feet a few inch back from rings
20 Single unders  subbed 10 squats

Done in 11.54 mins bigsmile  YAY!!
Splits:- 2.24, 2.12, 2.21, 2.25, 2.30

Really pleased with this wod - scaling was great - I could have upped the DL but this scaling allowed me to just power through - just a few breaths here and there ie No bar staring - smashed it and it felt great especially after the tough holds. My sqauts felt faster than ever - great wod!
