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!

Rip 60 Week 6 Day 1

So here goes Week 6 wahoo!!

Phew!!! This was tough going!

Weight was added to Muay Tai Knees with KB so I started off low with 3kg DB but I think up it next time,  3kg DB for lateral raise, dropped down to 3kg DB for Vsit with rotation - up it next time, and 6.5kg DB for bicep curls with single leg squat and stayed with 6.5kg DB for KB swings.

Burpees done at pin 5 again so stay there till its gets easier still. Push ups are still tough grrr but up down did on the floor and burpees with hand release I did on the floor - need to get stronger at that push up  grrr

Plank stuff was tough today, pikes were hard, two leg oblique crunch was hard too well just continuing it for so long is more the point ie lots of plank stuff was hard on the wrists, arms and shoulders and plank strength generally.

Long jack section today but did my best to stick with it.

Single legs jumps were easier than I thought ;) especially as week 1 I remember those single leg hops almost impossible he he

My obliques are beginning to show so something is going in the right direction ;)
