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 11/54 Resistance 2

As my knees and ankles were not terribly happy I decided to skip all the running in Cold Start today and did Autumn's warm up from Master Hammer and Chisel, then went straight into Resistance 2.

With his few mins warm up it was perfect, I used my sandbag again for the burpee press's and I started a few seconds early but got all the reps in ;)

I used a 4kg/8.8lbs (up from 3kg/6.6lbs last time) for the jump squats and punch pulls and got all the reps in too.

Corkscrew lift I started early again but mangled all the reps and the Chin up L-crunch - each round I did 50% chin ups (unassist. & assist) and 50% hanging raises.

Pleased with progress and although I pushed hard I wasn't completely knackered for a change - not sure if that's because I didn't have my pre workout snack today, or because I didn't do Cold Start, or I'm actually getting a little fitter????

But loving it...Get some!!
