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!

BodyBeast Phase 1 Build Week 1 Day 1 Chest and Tri's

So Bodybeast here we go!!

Need to build some muscle so it seem the best way to do it!

Phase 1 Build Week 1 Day 1

Chest and Tri's

Interesting workout - it's pretty fast paced so really pleased I watched it through first.

I went really light on my weights for chest as lots of reps and I still want to be able to feed myself tomorrow  

Possible went too light for chest as apart from the flys causing a little shaking I hardly worked much at all but my body will thank me tomorrow and I can def. up the weights next session. (The first week of any new program is always trial and error till you know whats going on)

The weight for Tri's I got about right as they were pretty fried by the end.

Because I hurt my finger/grip muscles/arm pull starting the mower on sunday  I was wary and also could not put my hand plat for the push ups so I did all the push ups on my TH Power stands as it was completely pain free.

Bring on leg day tomorrow and hope my hand mends enough for pull up on Back and bi's - fingers crossed!
