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!

BodyBalance 68 and P90X3 Incinerator twice

Thursday I got in some LMOD Bodybalance and really enjoyed it, lovely flowing warm up, little strength work, nice stretches and especially the 10 min meditation at the end. Just helps keep me de-stressed :)

Rested yesterday, although busy work day, didn't feel much like rest moving 22kg / 48lbs containers all day long lol.

Today I went back to my pal Tony and did X3 Incinerator through once with medium weights, skipped the burnout and went through it all again with heavy weights and well I did my best in the burn out as I was toasty toast! Felt done but loved it :)
Still suffering some sinus issues, much to my annoyance, but feeling better :)

Going old school tomorrow with good ol' P90X Plyometrics!!!

LMOD BodyCombat 72 & BodyBalance 68

BodyCombat 72 today which has some really fast combos in there. Loved the combo's but the fast changes meant a I missed a few reps here and there. Will be be better the second time through.
Good few push ups, mountain climbers and hip escapes making a great all rounder!
Didn't go too low in the jumping lunge section as I was quite awaare it was leg day yesterday lol

Chased it BodyBalance 68 - 30 mins flexibility version which was really nice but I missed having the meditation at the end.

Overall loved it and I felt great when I was done.

Have a great weekend everyone.

LMOD BodyBalance 68

Really enjoyed this today - nice tai chi inspired warm up, some warrior poses, hip openers, balance work, twists and a lovely 10 min meditation at the end.

The meditation was lovley apart from the workmen that were around causing a knock on the wall about 2 mins from the end - you can even see the small spike in heart rate from them making me jump grrrr. (I'm actually suprised how low my HR was during those 10 mins)

Other than that it was a superb way to calm, stretch, work on flexibility and really destress.
