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!

22MHC Cold Start, Fit Test and Core 1

So I did cold start to get me ready - which it did!

My fit test results..
Push ups in a min - I managed 20 all full push ups and pretty good depth, slightly shy of parallel towards the but really pleased with them. I though I would have to go shallow near the end and I didn't just took breaks as I need.

Squat Thrust in a min - I used 2 x 2kg and did 29 reps

Pulls max reps - I tried a pull got about 1/3 up. So I chin ups and I managed 2 unassisted ones!! Super stoked. My toe just the wall for balance but I managed two - New personal best for me.
After a few mins I did assisted just to see and I managed 10 reps.

Jumping jacks - I did full touch at the top and bottom and managed 72 reps ;)

Forearm Plank Hold max time or 1 min max - I managed the full minute and with relative ease - wahoo!!

Overall really surprised myself with my results - over the moon.

The I did Core 1 just to see what it was like. Some moves pretty tough, some not so much for me. But this evening my left hip isn't overly happy and I think it was the frog legs one that did as clicking from both sides during nearly every rep - see what happens, should be fine.

Cals 377 in 58mins avg HR 109 BPM
