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 36/54 - Special Ops Cardio and Core 2

Long day, not feeling 100% and nearly didn't bother tonight but I'm really glad I did.

Special Ops Cardio is a bear! I forgot you start off with 70 press jacks yes 70 woweee. I did the first round with a 3kg / 6.6lb thinking I'd keep it all the way through the workout like last time but after round 1 I felt great so I upped the weight to 4kg / 8.8lbs for rounds 2 and 3.

Which for the burpee rolls actually helps you get up at the end of the roll and boy did I need it lol
I used the same DB for everything except the lateral squat jumps - I did them no weight again.

I managed all the reps this time too :) nice bonus considering I thought going into it 'just do your best'.

Core 2 after this is a cruel combo as I said last time we had this combo so I just did as many as I could - took a few breathers early on as the pain was ouchy and managed to get more of the later stuff done.

I felt tired but great after I was done, much much better than before I started so it was a great session.

Thats week 6 done and looking forward to week 7!
