Day Two



Plyometrics is high impact and full of jumps & squats. The majority of the exercises last 30 seconds and you do a group of them one after the other. Then, you have the joy of repeating the same group of exercises. You get reasonable breaks to get some water and get your heart rate down.

I was feeling ambitious again today and didn't want to miss out on a spin class with my friends. That was a mistake! Laura taught spin class, which was tough- she loves gear 18 and likes to make us suffer. Actually, she is a ton of fun, plays great music and likes to challenge us! :) I did the class before plyometrics. I think it would be smarter to do cardio after P90X if possible. I felt drained throughout, but I made it and liked it!

Before I started, I decided to make one of my delicious well perfected protein shakes to get some fuel. As soon as I started the video, Tony Horton tells you to let an hour pass since you've last eaten. Oh well! I felt a little queasy at first, but not enough to make me take a break. I will make note of that next time for sure.
