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!

T25 Cardio and rest

Yesterday (forgot to post  ) was T25 Cardio

I rearranged my room round and although wasn't feeling full of beans I pushed play and got it done but I struggled a little with the lunge parts - my legs were screaming   
I thought I might after 2 leg heavy days and I wasn't wrong but I pushed through.

My room still isn't right so hopefully 3rd time lucky.





So rest day for me today - wasn't planned that way but I had to push through to get it done last night and today I'm feeling a little shattered, some twingey pains at the top of my glutes and a little awareness in my ankle. Had a long workday too so decided to be sensible and rest.

Which as I figured and now proved to myself that too much T25 in one week isn't good for me especially on top of learning new piyo ( more taxing than I thought) moves  

I'm still trying to get back to doing 6 days a week which I haven't managed in the last 4 weeks. I think I need to schedule in a stretch day with maybe some weights so at least I'm still active and doing something instead of just being sat on my rear! Maybe 5 days a week is my sweat spot I'm not sure? I'm hoping it's just from the 3 very leg focused days! (That's the trouble with programming for yourself grrr)

On another note Black friday today - anybody snapped up the deals????
I've spent so much money saving money lol!!!

But I bought Turbo Fire and Insanity -The Asylum today  

Insanity -The Asylum - One of your favourites isn't it Michael???? 

I'm sure I'm not ready for it yet but I couldn't resist after everyone says such great things about it
