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!

22 MHC 8/54 Cold Start, Cardio 2 and Special Ops Core

Woweee enjoyed this tonight but I was toast by the end.

Cardio 2 was fun, really tried hard, and chuffed that I managed all the mountain climbers in rounds 1 and 2 and took 1 break in round 3 - great progress for me.

Did the water bug on the floor but wary of wrists and so walked hand back and forth and felt like I was missing out on the whole point so I did the next 2 rounds with hands on bench and got them all in :)

Those Gorilla crawls are still hard for me, I don't have the flexibility to get down real low but I'm hoping it will get better with time. I tried going on just the ball of my foot like Tony mentions so that I could get my butt lower, but nope that made my knees hurt so thats a no no for me. I'll try to get as low as I can and hope my flexibility improves.

Still loving it!!!

Tried the new Special Ops Core tonight and boy it is tough!!! One move I found really easy the rest are tough and no way did I manage all the reps. I was pretty tired after cardio 2 so that didn't help but I was toast at the end!!

Also just ordered the Beachbody Core mat to help protect my butt and elbows more.
