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 26/54 - Special Ops Cardio and Core 2

Special Ops Cardio is a really great workout!

I did it with 3kg all the way through except the Lateral Hop Squat thingy at the end - no weight for that as it pretty tough after all the other stuff that comes before it!

Then it was a new Core workout with Core 2 .... I expected new stuff but nope - its Core 1 but double reps OMG! So each move in Core 1 is 11 reps this is now 22 each!!

For me after all those burpee rolls to go into 22 V ups was just cruel, I managed them but then the next move which I normally do with a 3kg/6.6lb DB I thought I go safe with no weight and I could hardly manage them at all as my abs were screaming!! So I just did my best and forgot the rest.
The Cobra Crunch and Kick twist I managed all 22 without too much problem for some reason but the rest I just did as many as I could phew!!!

I had no carbs with my mushroom omelet and veg at dinner and wow did my energy levels tell me that was a mistake during my workout 3 hours later!
Maybe I should try a Pre workout? Any UK equivalents to Energize or Hydrate does anyone know???
