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!

Push ups, Chins, Back Squat + Elliptical

After another tough week and no wods I manged a few push ups against the back of the settee on a couple of occasions but thats all grrrrr - I really hope for a better week this week, my mums getting better and stronger every day so here's hoping I can get 3 wods in!

Warm up:- spealler, ballballs, red band dislocates, 3 moutain climbers (to see how foot holds up after all this time)

Push ups
10 @ pin 5
5 @ Pin 3
1 @ Floor - yay!! and form good too, nose and chest to floor, plank felt great!

Chin ups with PU rev assist
10 @ top
5 @ 1" down

Back Squat
10 @ 15kg / 33lb
6 @ 25kg / 55lb
3 @ 32kg / 70lb

Elliptical 800 meters level 2
Target (previous PR from June) = < 4.30mins
Done in:- 4.30 mins equalled PR - Pleased with this considering the last month I've had.
400m splits 2.14.4, 2.15.6, then took a relaxed half speed cool down 400m of 3.58.

Stretch and foam roller, try for push up from floor and got it a little shaky and slow but pleased to get it back after failing last week.

I'm a little wacked tonight - not sure elliptical after this strength stuff is quite right for me?
