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 - 24/54 Special Ops Resistance

Well - I expected this to be really tough and it kinda wasn't!

Plange push ups - hard but I manageable. I did some on my knees when they got tough.
Clean, Squat, Press - Great move and familiar to anyone if you've done crossfit, olympic lifting or Masters Hammer and Chisel.
Track Star Pull ups - pull ups with a cross the body knee raise - that I did wrong as I did the knee raise at the top and not at the bottom like a muppet in the first 2 rounds.
California rolls - Same move that we do in Core 1 with the addition of a Burpee and a lateral jump!
High low boat - again a slight variation on Rock the Boat from Core 1.

So if I'm honest I was a little bit disappointed in this one - loved the Clean, Squat, Press but the others could have been better or more resistance related if you know what I mean.
Also considering in P90X Tony says you don't and shouldn't work core everyday - in hardcore he does/we do!!!
Sorry to be a bit down I just somehow wanted and hoped for more from this one!
