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 2 D2 Strength 35

I really enjoyed this one but it was over way to fast!
I increased the weight for the rows in the second round as the first round was just way too light. I used the power stands for Hungry Bear in the first and just did it on my knees in the seconds as it was the glutes and obliques that was the target after all.

I thought this one had more shoulder work, which many workouts miss out on, so definitely one for the library 😉

I'm very aware of my knees from all the jumping about so I think although I wanted to stick to the calendar and do this in full, I think I may have to adjust it as it's not worth getting injured over.

I may jump to the longer workouts and only do two Speed ones a week and replace it with one with less impact instead. It's frustrating but we all have to work within our limitations don't we?
