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!

P90X3 Cold Start followed by The Warrior

X3 Cold Start followed by The Warrior!

Well OMG this was extremely brutal x 2!!! Total body smash up      

Probably worse because my shoulders were tired and sore from yesterdays CVX but I struggled to keep up with the kids today. Even holding a plank became difficult  

To mention just a few of the moves...
Plank Sphinx Push ups and then later Elevator push ups further trashed my upper body  
Side lunge jump shots, sprawls and super burpees sucked all the oxygen out of me  
Rollers Boats and Fiffer Scissor twists trashed my mid section after I stubbled through Down Dog Crunches  
One leg jump squats, Warrior Squat Lunges and Spiderman Squats trashed my legs  
and then we had burn out of depth charges as the end aswell  

Not enough oxygen and fatigued muscles today and I feel shattered this evening! 

Great job Tony! What a way to ramp up to end this first week of P90X3.

Just Dynamix to finish to tomorrow which as its the alternative to rest day I assume it won't be too bad - but from watching the other day he mentions 'tough on the shoulders holding the plank for this long'  the prospect doesn't thrill me but we will see how I go - if it's too bad I'll do the none plank stuff
