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!

P90X Chest and Back

P90X Chest and Back again for me but OMG the sorness in my glutes from Legs and Back is no sooo not funny!!!

Went with heavier bands today and increased most of weights again so really pleased with progress.

P90X Legs and Back

P90X Legs and Back as I could get to my pull up bar today but wow I forgot how tough this one can be lol especially with 25 balance lunges (Bulgarian squats) straight out of the blocks!!!!

I skipped Sneaky Lunges for speed and I did sub in some heavy lunges and went heavy on the calf raises but I was toast by the end phew!!!

Where has my wall squat endurance/strength gone? :(

Transform 20 Sample & BodyCombat 70 Express

Went for Transform 20 Sample again tonight and and pleased with progress as I can now do the push up sections for full time (nothing for most people I know but it's something I'm still working on and each little victory/progress point is still a win ;) ) & then chased it with BodyCombat 70 Express and loved it.

Great workout and just what I needed.

P90X Plyo

P90X Plyometrics well because I love it lol. So much fun with Tony who still makes me laugh after all these years lol.

Thought I might struggle/crash after about 30-40 mins but I didn't :)
Felt good and strong and I'm back in cardio shape and fully recovered. Soooooo pleased to be well again and I'm ready to take on the world and erm Shaun T with Transform 20 in a couple of weeks ;)
