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!

Chalene Extreme Burn Intervals and Ab Burner

Chalene Extreme Burn Intervals and Ab Burner - wow long session and I was late starting too ;(

Enjoyed it I think lol, it kinda went by in a flash, some of the choreography was a little fast but I did my best. 
I used 5lb for it and that was too much on some of the moves - mainly shoulder press and those weird 'half bicep, twist outwards and then lift up' thingies. Lots of reps really burn after a while even at a mere albs so I dropped to 1.5kg / 3.3lb.

I tried the thigh worker band and didn't get on with that at all so did the rest with out it.

The ab burner was well an ab burner!!! Ouchy couldn't keep up due the pain!! 

Will be better next time but I'm going to move Ab burner to the Monday as the weight days are shorter - doesn't make any sense to add it to the 45 min long workout to me as I always want to stretch more and 1 Hr 13 min is too long for me at the moment.

We have to do what works for us don't we?
