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 as per GD day 14

Push ups as per GD day 14

A harder level and so back to 2 reps as per GD - but I’m not sure what kind of jump to harder level I should go for?

Pin 5 - which is 3 inch lower than pin 6.
EMOM 2 reps for 20 mins

Completed all reps with relative ease. So is this pin 5 too easy? Should I go to pin 4 (another 3 inch lower - all the pins in my rack are 3 inch apart).

I’m wondering about doing this push up program twice a week now as I’ve acclimatised to the volume to see if I can speed things up a bit.
Pin 6 doing it only once a week with other wods has taken me just over 13 weeks with no missed reps so at that pace I wont reach the floor for 91 weeks gulp I know I can be impatient but that surely is a long time to do proper full push ups????
So even twice a week that’s 45 weeks!!!

May be pin 4, then pin 2, then 1 as I’m sure it will be getting tough by then and the smaller jumps will be more beneficial???
Or keep the 3 inch / 1 pin increments and do it more frequently ie 4 times a week regardless of other wods??
I could be over thinking it, I could be just being impatient or I’m just in the wood here??
Thoughts any one please???  question
