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 8 Day 4 Done!!!!!

Stayed with bicep curls to 8.5kg and managed 10 on each arm just. Stayed with KB swings 8.5kg .
I stayed with 6kg for tricep extensions but did't go so well today, lots of clicking in left shoulder so didn't push it. I think the extra work yesterday trying them T things was def. extra work for my shoulder and it woke my wrist up too so did none of those today.
Just held the elevated plank for as long as I could.

I used 6kg for hip raise and KB crunch.


First lot of burpees I did on barson step again, trying to work the push ups but my shoulders were tired. So the rest I did I on the floor.

I tried hard on the elevated mountain climbers today but shoulders were very tired. Think I need some rest days now Rip 60 is finally Done Yippeee!!! Wahooo!!!!

Wow did I sweat today, looking at my HRM afterwards I didn't go up as high as I normally do but I certainly did sweat more than I've been used to this last week or so???

HRM  = 55mins 435 cal Max 170 / 91% Ave 132 / 71%

So the plan now is a few days off with maybe some light cardio, then get my P90X fit test done then a day or two rest depending on how hard the fit test was and then press play to Bring It!!!!
