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 95

Tried BodyPump 95 today and its a great release. Really tough Bicep and Lunge track with so many pulses OMG!

BodyPump 95

Warm up- 8kg Bar & 2 x 2kg for shoulders.

Squats - 14kg Bar - tough one all in one stance for the 5mins - I think I missed a rep or two as I;m slightly slower on the singles.

Chest - 8kg Bar and 2 x 4kg for A Press. Only just made it through on the A Press as those pulses are tough. Also 2 sets and I was slow in changing from bar to dumbells.

Back = Deadlifts, Rows, Clean and Press & Power (push)Press  12kg Bar & 5kg DB for Thrusters. 2nd set 13kg and 5kg and 3rd set 14kg and 5kg DB. Good weight on the bar but could have gone up with the DB - maybe 6 and then 7 next time.
 
Triceps - 1 x 5kg for overhead tricep for a start but it got heavy quick, dropped to a 4kg and then a 3kg. Mixed with Bench tricep dips (tough and took breaks). I used a 5kg for the Kickbacks and it was a tough heavy for perfect form as a little swinging going on.
Biceps - 2 x 4kg - tons of pulses and it was burny but I think I made it, may have missed a rep as I was second or so slow starting.

Lunges - 2 x 3 kgs DBs - wow Regan and those pulses in squat position really refatigue the legs before going into the lunges. I dropped 1 db and then the other in the pulse section and missed 1 set of pulses on both legs OMG!!!
Shoulders - 8kg Bar and Presses were tough and I think I misses a few reps and 2 x 3kg DBs for shoulder but after a couple of reps too heavy to went to 2kgs and just made it but had to push through the burn phew!
No core section in this one.

Just bought a Wahoo TickX HRM so going to try it out tomorrow.
