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!

Catch up

 So I've been very lacking when it comes to posting but not working out, things have changed so I thought I'd catch up and start posting again.

I completed Macro Hacks 6 weeks and it was great and not so great at the same time. The workouts took a while with all the warm up and pre hab stuff which I think helped but also hindered at the same time.

I found the workout tough to follow sometimes but thats only because I'm used to follow along workouts from dvd's and online streaming.

I changed to Cori's Pull up program on 3rd Aug 20 to 17th Sept 20. Which I enjoyed but got kinda repetitive but without seeing much progress. I increased my hand time but that was about it.

Then I needed a change so I did Meagans Muscle Burns Fat programs with Beachbody 31 Sept 20 to 4 Dec 20. Then Adnavced 5 Dec 20 to 29 Dec 20. Really enjoyed it apart from lots of skipping. 

Then I restarted it with some MBFA Bonus add ons and some LMOD Grit Strength and Combat. But I wasn't feeling it, I felt like my core strength was not what it was and I'm not sure why.

Then I was going to start the prep for 6 Weeks of the work but then we had to move units so then I was working crazy long exhausting hours and no chance of any workouts.

So things a were a bit hit and miss then for a while with some 22 MHC and Lift 4. Fitting in LIFT 4 where I could as I felt I was losing so much strength.

May 21 I realised I am peri-menopausal - which has been affecting me in so many ways including poor sleep, night sweats, lack of strength generally and in kegals too.

June 21 after a few weeks on some Vogel tablets, no more night sweats and actually sleeping through the night again, generally feeling better I decided to go back to basics after reading A workout Routine website and I bought his program. I started that 7th June 21.
