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!

P90X Week 11 Day 3 Shoulders and Arms

Thanks a million guys

I had a word with physio last night (who just got down on the floor and did it from cold with no pain what's so ever in his legs "you mean like that?" - honestly how to make me feel better!!!! grrrrrr) and he suggested trying K tape - that pretty coloured stuff that you can't miss on athletes and tennis players these days!
Well I put some on last night and it seem to be helping no end, very little pain today at all so I'm really pleased.

So today I managed to get Week 11 Day 3 Shoulders and Arms done - warm up was very gentle ie knee raises and very very little jog on the spot. Jacks were walked side to side only but I got a little warmer so I think it was ok
Only really noticed my hammy when bending down to pick the weights up. Half way through I decided to raise the weights up so that helped.

I had to keep pausing to get down on the floor and back up for lying tri's but it was good to get something done. Also did standing curls and not crouching curls!

I also managed some chair dips, I didn't go too deep and was aware of shoulder still not ready for too deep yet but all good.

I skipped ARX as I thought I might be too much for my leg. It felt weird, I was wondering around drinking my shake afterwards thinking why don't I feel right ahh I feel unfinished missing ARX but still I think its for the best. I'll have to add it in my 'catch up the missed workouts week' at the end
