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!

Barstarzz Preprogram W 1-1 & 22MHC Cardio 1

So I fancied a change and decided to invest in myself and bought the new Barstarzz BTX (Body Transformation Extreme ) 2.0 program.

I'm lacking my pull bar at the moment since moving house so I'm using my Rip 60 Straps for my pull ups and chin ups.

I'm starting the 4 week pre-program before I start the full 12 week program and today was day 1.

Skill Training was Negative Chin ups which went pretty well - I did them pretty tough for 8 and include the chin up then 6 really tough just focussing on the negative.

Then the main workout was Around The Block...

5 Sets/Rounds with 1 min break in between of
5 pull ups (Rip 60 Straps)
10 Tricep Dips (I did them on Power Stands Rnd 1 Straight leg, Rnd 2 Bent legs, Rnd 3, 4  & 5 straight leg)
10 Push ups (Rnd 1 All feet 5-5, Rnd 2 was 4 feet & 5-1 Knees, Rnd 3 was only 3 feet & 3-2-2 Knees, 4 was 3 f and 3-3-1 knees & 5 was 3 f and 2-2-2-1 knees )

Push ups were tough in the latter rounds but I actually really enjoyed it.

To add in Cardio I went straight into 22MHC Cardio 1 and loved it!
