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!

BodyPump 93

After 3 days of no workouts just to rest my muscles, which I find very difficult but know its necessary, I was back at it today with BodyPump 93.

Awesome workout! Could have gone slightly heavier on the Squat and Back track, got Biceps right (really burny) but over estimated the Lunge, Shoulders and tricep tracks so had to drop down to get through them phew!!

The lunge track reminded me of T25 lower focus with the pulses and holds and they really make my legs scream " 1 min on each leg to go" she said - OMFG!!!

Bridges and sinlge leg bridges along with some crunches in the Core section at the end was a nice change too.

Will definitely do this one again.

Warm up 7kg
Squats - 11kg Bar - up it next time 12 or maybe 14kg (double warm up wieght like he says)
Chest Flys - 4kg DB's - just perfect burny.
Back = Deadlifts, Rows, Clean and Press & Power (push)Press -11kg Bar good but increase next time 12 or 13kg.
Triceps - 4kgs for kick backs (perfect) and 4kg DB for o/h press but dropped down to 3kg when struggling, tricep push ups - tried P.Stands on knees but then went to bench on knees and OMG.
Biceps - 2 x 3kgs - just made it very burny!
Lunges - she says go light so 2 x 1kgs dbs - just made it - perfect
Shoulders - push ups, upright rows, o/h Press - started with 7kg but too much for press so dropped to 2 x 2kgs and 2kg DBs finishes with lateral riases and side rotator raises - just made it very very burny.
Core - leg extentions, crunches and single leg bridges
