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!

P90X3 The Challenge and X3 Ab Ripper

Fairly pleased with my number today as I increased on my pull ups by 2 every set compared to last time! Push ups were tough but got through to match my reps from last time but with very few on knees - mainly to protect my shoulder which is really getting there now I feel :)

Not sure what happened in the burn out - I was doing unassisted jump up and slow negs plus 3 std push ups and the first one really spiked my HR and didnt really come down till I changed over to Ab ripper?. I took a few breaths to calm a few times and just carried on. I thought it was just incorrect HR reading for a start but checking my pulse is was going some (I coud feel the pounding in my neck and chest even) so no idea why but I didn't feel rough or feint or any thing so I guess I'm fine lol.

Ab ripper starts out easy peasy and then BAM he really turns the hurt on OMG!!
