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 4 AAA

The wind here was horrendous last night and kept me awake on and off for around 3 hours :( so I clearly didnt get all the rest I needed and I have some DOMS creeping in today.

AAA was good I think I enjoyed it but my shoulders didn't. Those knee plank heel press and the slider moves just make my tired shoulders scream and I have to take breaks for my arms and not the main muscles being worked. The only thing that made me feel like I'm not a total wuss was that Autumn actually said towards the end that her shoulders/arms were burning too - thank you Autumn :)

I increased all my weights (using all 3kg/6lb, 4kg/8.8lbs, 5kg/11lb and 6kg/13lb) in the second round except the skull crushers as I clearly got the right one or went too heavy to start with the first time depending on how you look at it lol.

Bands I increased also except those darn fire hydrants - they burn sooo good!

I assume my tiredness is the main culprit but wow I finished those last fire hydrants and bam my energy was gone! I stretched out but slooowly and even had to drink to post workout shake to get me through the stretch - wowweee I think the last 4 days are catching up with me and I need some sleeeeeeep.

Keep at it guys - its leg day tomorrow and I think I'm alittle scared as Autmn usually kills legs!!!
