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!

Shift Shop Wk 1 D4 Strength 25 and Shift Core

My left shoulder is a little niggly, to my frustration, so I was careful but crushed Strength 25 again. I did up my weights so I was pleased with that but I had to modify the bear kicks on my knees.

Today I added Shift Core (as per calendar) straight after and it was really good. Great new moves that really hit the core muscles. Some really tough moves for me and some easier ones.

I'm enjoying Shift Shop so far and I love the fact that Cardio and Strength days flip flop but one complaint I personally have is all the plank work - its every day in every workout so my shoulders/upper arms are suffering slightly and don't feel like they are sufficiently recovered by the next day.
I may modify slightly tomorrow to try to give a bit more recovery in readiness for week 2 as I'm really looking forward to the longer workouts.
