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 40/54 - Cardio 3 and Core 2

Again I chose the non Special Ops one today with Cardio 3 and its still as brutal as I remember it, with no breaks, but thankfully my energy levels are returning to normal and I felt like I smashed it.

Spider Crawls & Skip Flys got all reps no problems.
Cross Climbers I was a little slower than them for help of for full time ;)
Fast feet up/down and just about kept up although 2 of the downs were fast/ poor on the last round.
Sphinx Kickers again slower than them but much better that before and I modified round 2 to hands instead of forearms.
Spin Burpees I quickly stepped feet in and out instead of the jump  (as my back still doesn't like them) but I got all the reps.

Really pleased with improvements for this one :)

Core 2 is still mostly tough  witha few easy ones in there and the plank roll I took the push ups out like I was thinking about and it felt much better. Considering I have Chest Doms today I think it was a great decision. I should be able to make a much better job of the pump jumpers tomorrow.
