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 35

Push ups as per GD Day 35
Pin 4 Max sets - 4 mins rest
After reading a bit of Star’s book (preview PDF) on push ups I realised I had somehow gone astray on my Push ups for some reason so narrowed my grip again and kept my elbows in - instead of elbows out like I had been doing doh
So my sets were 14-10-8 compared to last time of 14-12-11
but I’m ok with that as I was working on form - even recorded my self to get my form better, trying to keep my forearms vertical (well perpendicular to the bar anyway lol) as much as I could. It felt much stronger and more stable. It obviously is more delt work again with the narrower hands but worth it I think - should help far more with ring dips etc.
Tried a full push up negative and checked form on floor too.
I need to stay tighter all over over but a with a bit of work I think I’m getting there and my position felt much better channeling Kstar - Thank you for a great piece of writing and great pictures - awesome huggs Glad I found it when I did before I really did my shoulders no good at all.
