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!

110112 Rowing and Push ups

I orginally planned to do a am and pm wod today but it didn't happen as I had to learn yet again that doing a wod without eating enough food is not clever!

w/u a few arm swings and 5 push ups pin 4

110112 Rowing and Push ups

Puppies:
Complete as many rounds as possible in 12 minutes of:
Row 250 meters - subbed 200m elliptical lev 2
10 Push-ups - bar at pin 4 (10-10-5,5-4,3,3-4,3,3-6)

We usually sub a 200 M run for a 250 M row.  Another way to sub is a an average 250 m row is about a minute, fast 45 seconds, slow about 1:15+.  Pick the time frame you would generally fall into and sub box jump, running, jump rope etc….

Completed 5 rounds + 200m + 6 push ups
Splits:- 1.07, 0.36, 1.15, 0.38, 1.16, 0.46, 1.19, 0.59, 1.17, 0.58, 1.18, 0.32 only 6 reps timer went

I debated before starting this to go for 15 mins but during the rounds 4 & 5 of push ups I was reaching muscle failure so decided 12 mins was enough for today but def go for 15 mins next time as endurance should be much better by then.

My arms were still shaky over 2 hours after wod giving me a great indication that I hadn't fuelled properly pre-workout and thinking it was only a short wod - I didn't after either!!! So decided the sit ups and push jerk wod that I planned to do later should wait till tomorrow!!
