P90X Plyometrics Mary Katherine Lunge
OUCH! P90X Plyometrics kicked my butt yet again! I just finished Plyometrics, and I’m still sweating from the workout. This is just another P90X workout that never seem to get easier for me! My wife did Plyometrics with me, and it seemed like she was doing better than me today. I guess it’s because she usually does some type of cardio workout daily. Towards the end of the workout though, she was struggling just like me.
The exercises that really kill me during this P90X workout are the squats (like usual). I looked in the P90X Fitness Guide, and during Plyometrics you are actually doing 8 different variations of squats (not counting the warm-up) with 2 sets of each variation. That’s a lot of squats! Despite the pain, I always try to do better than the previous workout. I feel like I am getting a little bit further in the exercises until I have to modify or rest. I didn’t pause the P90X DVD today like I’ve done during previous workouts, rather I just did as many reps of each exercise as I could.
Now that I’m cooled off (after sitting here typing this post), I feel really great that I completed this workout. I’m excited for tomorrow since I’ll be doing another new P90X workout, Back & Biceps.
