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 89

Great full body thrashing to start the year off with BodyPump 89 ;)

Big increase in weight for Squats and Back - hope I dont regret that squat weight tomorrow lol

Managed all push ups on feet this time too - although slightly shallow towards the end.

BodyPump 89

1st Jan 18 - Happy New year!

Warm up weight:- 7kg bar
Squats - 14kg Barbell - slowed me down a little but meant I worked harder. May have missed a rep or two.
Chest - 2 x 5kg for chest A press and 7kg bar - felt good and I think I got all the reps :)
Back with no Overhead Press - 14kg Barbell - 5kg plate for thrusters and I think I got all reps again.
Triceps - tricep push ups on power stands on knees. Got more reps than last time ;).
5kg Platefor all o/h extensions this time, didnt drop the weight to 4kg this time but did take a few breaks and pushed as hard as I could.
 Dips on Bench with all bent legs - struggled (really burny) and had to take breaks.
Biceps - All curls with 2 x 4kgs. - slowed me slightly but I think I got them all just. Then used 7kg bar - got them all
Lunges - 2 x 3kgs and I think I got all the reps - took a break on the right but finished late so I think I got them omg!
Shoulders - Push ups on Power stands and push 8-8 feet, 8-8 feet but shallow depth - still good progress.
2 x 3kgs all reps on shoulders - but it got really tough for some reason and I had to drop to 2kgs for the rotations after 1 rep as just too much :( Maybe go to 7kg bar with them next time.
Core (crunches and rotating hovers)- skipped as CX Works tomorrow.
