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!

Metcon 111108 "White"

Thankfully I haven't done any major damage to my shoulder, just a delt strain like I hoped (ie nothing more severe) so I've rested and rested some moreand now after nearly a week I need to do something!

Warm up:- Spealler, 3 hollow rocks attempts, 2 beginner rope climb (laying to standing), 3 hanging knee raises, 3 walking lunges, 100m elliptical

Metcon 111108 "White"

Scaled to
Five rounds for time of:
3 Beginner rope climbs (laying to standing)
5 Knee raises (hanging KTE attempts)
15 Walking lunge steps
Elliptical 300 meters

Done in 19.49mins
Splits were 3.40, 3.44, 3.55, 4.07, 4.22

Considering longest metcon in a while fairly please with pace - I knew when I got to 10-15 mins because everything just got harder! That's what lots of short metcons does for you, so great to do a longer one. RIP White

I haven't done any lunges in along time and I considered scaling back the reps but it was a hero wod so I didn't really want too, but I'm in pain already after a few hours so OMG!! I need lots of sleep and I need to eat more I've only just managed 1800 calories today and something tells me it's not enough grrrr
