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!

B4Lift4 Chest and Back & ShiftShop Speed 25, Joels Grab Bag

Monday was B4Lift4 Chest and Back and I skipped core and went into Shift Shop Speed 25 - which was tougher than I remember lol

Today I did Joels Grab Bag with Dumbells and it was pretty good. Didn't think I would enjoy it but I did.

Shift Shop Wk 1 D3 Speed 25

Enjoyed this again today and actually managed to do it without an interruption lol

I had a take a couple of breaks on the mountain climbers again but I crushed the rest! My own longer stretch afterwards as normal.

Looking forward to Strength again tomorrow and the new Shift Core.

Shift Shop Wk 1 D1 Speed 25

Speed 25 and I did my best to crush it!

Had to take 3 breaks during Mountain Climbers - my shoulders will get stronger! Also 1 break during the Catchers Crawl OMG!

Burpees I went slower and tried to get a good plank as I usually jump back short and keep my butt in there (I filmed myself the other day and now I know lol) and as Chris says "20 good ones is better than 50 bad ones" ;)

Loved it and can't weight to try Strength 25 tomorrow - I so nearly did it today but decided to stay true to the program and see where it gets me.

I've previewed it along with Speed 35 & Strength 35 and I think it going to be an awesome progam - Lets Shift!

Sneak peak Shift Shop Speed 25 and H&C Total body Chisel

I was disappointed today that the new Shift Shop sneak peak was the same Speed 25 as last time and not a new one but I did it anyway.

Had some interruptions again and energy seemed low today but got it done, then went straight into Total Body Chisel. Increased my weights in most areas although failed on bench press but hey that's a good thing 😉

Shift Shop Sneak Peak Speed 25 & H&C Total Body Chisel

I tried the new Shift Shop Sneak Peek of Speed 25 and it was great - really enjoyed it and apart from the mountain climbers I pretty much smashed it ;) Having the instruction between each round really let me catch my breath so I could really give it some in the next round.

Some familiar elements in there from Asylum, 22MHC and CdF Dynamic Strength so that made fun too. All 1 minute rounds and during a few I'm hearing Tony H's voice in my head.. "You can do anything for a minute!" lol

Although I had to stop 30 secs before the last round ended as I had a shopping delivery!
But I got that in and put away and cracked on to finish it out. I think I'm going to really enjoy Shift shop when it comes out soon.

I really wanted to hit some weights so I went straight into (after carting my stuff upstairs to my weights as I'm at home today) and hit H&C Total Body Chisel. Didn't go crazy with the weights especially with tired legs but really enjoyed it and felt great ;)

I think tomorrow might be rest or just abs/yoga for me phew!!!
