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!

110320 Pull up ladder

Warm up - Chris Spealler warm up excluding wall ball and kick ups because of wrist. Thank you Chris - great warm up and my back loves you for it!

110320 Pull up ladder
Did chin up with pull up rev. and very nearly reached muscle failue on round 4 = total 14 gulp  yep I think I’m out of whack from resting my wrist.

Rested a few mins and set up rings to chest height (13.6 on tape) and decided to do it again with beginner ring rows - feet under rings and lent back = body about 45 degs. Pulled rings to armpits.

Completed 12 rounds = Total 78 reps and decided to stop as I knew I wound’t complete another round and that’s a lot of reps considering how much I haven’t done in weeks!

Adjusted ring to waist height (12 on tape) and tried some beginner ring push ups - see how wrist felt when it was free to move and not fixed on floor or bar. Did 5,5,5,5.

Felt great to get something done.
