P90X Plyometrics Overview

Plyometrics

This routine is very high impact. The exercises are group into rounds and each round is repeated. Basically, you do each round twice. Each group has 4 exercises. The first three exercises are 30 seconds in length and the last is 1 minute. There is a bonus round. This round consists of three exercises that are a minute each. There is also a warm-up in the beginning and a cool down at the end.

The exercises:

1) Jump squat, run stance squat, airborne heisman, swing kick

2) Squat reach jump, run stance squats, double airborne heisman, circle run

3) Jump knee tuck. jumping lunge, leapfrog squat, twist combo

4) Rock star hop, gap jump, squat jack, military march

5) Run squat with 180 jump, lateral leapfrog, monster truck tire, hot foot

6) Bonus round: pitch & catch, jump shot, football


This is one of my favorites. Since I started doing this routine, I am running faster and biking stronger. My times in these disciplines have showed excellent improvement.


In good health,
Joe
