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 Eccentric Upper + P90X3 Ab Ripper

X3 Eccentric Upper + X3 Ab Ripper

Wow this was hard work tonight! I went with the weights from last time I did it in march and boy it was tough. I forgot what the slow 3 count does to you  

I managed 2 unassisted chin ups and did everything else assisted - even added a bit more assist as I was hardly managing any at all about half way through - I was toast by the end  

Then I went straight into X3 Ab ripper and I have to say that was a mistake - my shoulders were toast and there is so much shoulder work in this one that it was really really hard. Even the first move which I normally can do no problem at all I was shaking just holding my arms out  I pushed through I did what I could. Also some of the moves I did yesterday in T25 stretch so that made it harder also  

So note to self - do not try X3 ab ripper after T25 stretch or Eccentric Upper!!

PS I'm late posting this as I did this last night and today I have doms already and feel pretty trashed OMG!!! Thank god its rest day!
