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!

21 Day Fix Upper Fix

21 Day Fix Upper Fix

I went with light weights a 2kg/4.4lb and a 7.5lb/3.4kg and they weren't crazy hard but they certainly wasn't crazy hard either. Up them next time to 3kg/6.6lb and 10lb/4.5kg and see how I get on.

It was pretty awesome workout the ab work was tough including the forearm plank holds - I managed 30 secs, rested for 10 secs then completed the remaining 20 secs in the first round and did 32 secs, rest 8 secs and finished the last 20 secs.

Push up I managed 16 on feet first round and did 8 feet and 8 on knees in the second.

All the rest I did for the duration so pleased with that.

My right lower back is twanging again this evening, I think its from the rotational work i.e. the pushes with weights after the wood chops from the total body day on sat ;( Got some triggers but not sure if I should go physio or not?

Good routine for the shoulders though - really enjoyed it.
