Day 2 – Plyo X

Today was Day 2 of my P90X program – Plyometrics. It’s basically jump training, with lots of jump squats, tire runs, quick jumps, etc. It was four sets of four workouts, all either 30 or 60 seconds, repeated. So you do workouts 1, 2, 3, 4, then to 1, 2, 3, 4 again, then go on to 5, 6, 7, 8, etc. It lasts about an hour including warmup and cooldown, and is a great cardio workout, but also really works your legs. I’m lucky to have a decent cardio base to make it through without too much trouble, I feel sorry for more beginner people attempting it for the first time.

Tomorrow is “Shoulders & Arms” and “Ab Ripper X” again. Things will get interesting then, since I’ll have to use my sore upper body again.
