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 25/54 Special Ops Cardio and Core 1

Woweee now thats a workout!!! Cardio with weight for most of the exercises phew!

I went light weight (1kg) first round but it was actually too light for me to even complete one of the moves - Burpee rolls..... Squat down with weight in your hands, roll on to your back and as you roll forward to stand up, drop the weight (think Dreya Rolls from P90X/2/3 can't remember which) and go straight into a burpee and repeat!!!
The weight that actually helps you get to your feet was too light and I just couldn't get up with out a hand lol but heavier dumbbell (3kg) in rounds 2 and 3 made them possible ;)

Press jacks and tire twists are in X3 I think but still great moves. A-Skips from Cario 1 but on 1 leg at a time = calf burner!!. I liked the Squat Cross Punch that was new to me and those Crawl Jacks (harder version of ones we've built up from/over the last 4 weeks) we're pretty brutal for me.

7 great moves in this one and wow hands on knees required as you go into each 22 secs break for me!! Those lateral Squat hops are tough after the first 6 moves and I did them no weight at all - Wow awesome loved it!!!
