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!

P90X2 Chest + Back and Balance

Active Rest day yesterday for me on the garden mowing and strimming - I even put my HRM on to see and I did over 400 calls in 1 hr and 45 mins.

P90X2 Chest + Back and Balance

Made great progress on this today, lots more push ups and assisted pull ups. Also got HR up much higher and burnt more calories than last week also.

I felt my shoulder a little during the penultimate set of push ups where I did military ones and then on the last set I was very aware of it so I stopped and just hope I haven't upset it again 🤞🏻

I didn't do any plyo push ups this time as my wrist really hates it - I injured my wrist a few years ago and I have to be careful as some movements still bother it and landing on it doing a plyo move always upsets it so I just did push ups, (sometimes faster ones on my knees) better for strength gains anyway hey 😜

I'm really loving these X2 Strength workouts 😎 The pacing suits me, Tony makes me smile and it's all done (including my stretch) in an hour = bargain!
