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!

80 DO - Day 3 Cardio Core

Wow loved this one today - it gave me the cardio high that I needed!

That's what I call a HIT workout and to see it showing on my HR graph was quite cool too ;)

I wasn't looking forward to more plank work - I swear this program should have said it was focused on Abs, Booty and Shoulders!!!!
But it wasn't so bad thankfully, although my arms were literally shaking when trying to do the Pike moves = wow!! The slider drag is a very different sensation/muscle recruitment than just jumping to pike like Shaun has you do in some of his programs. (If felt a bit like an inverted pull over - if that makes sense to anyone?)

My shoulders have always seemed much weaker than the rest of me and I get the feeling Autumn and 80 DO is gonna make that change real fast whether I like it or not!! Bring it!! (so wrong program lol)

I had the fleeting thought of adding on MAX15 afterwards but then sense prevailed as I have 77 more days to go and killng myself on day 3 would be pretty stupid lol

Loving it!!! Bring on tomorrow!!!
