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!

P90X+ Intervals plus and Abs/Core Plus

So after last week feeing so tough and doing less well on some lifts and just stalling on most of the others for 2 weeks or so I decided I needed a recovery week, something different to let the muscles recover ready to attack it again next week.
Tony H's workouts always have a transition/recovery week in them every 3-4 weeks and my body likes or rather needs that - I've been pushing hard with Body Beast for 7 weeks now and I know to it so I'm not going to be silly and push on and get injured I'm going to listen to my body and lighten up for a week and then get back to and hit it stronger than ever to continue making progress.

So today I chose P90X+ Intervals Plus and Abs/Core Plus and wowee what a workout!! It felt great to be laughing again at Tony's jokes and push hard with the heart rate ;).
The abs/core plus really worked me in different ways than I have before - I might know to them tomorrow but it's what I needed to give everything else a much needed rest.

Really loved it and bonus I burnt 673 cal! Not seen figures like that in months either lol.
