Jumpman

Good old Plyo X. I had forgotten how much fun this one can be. They call it the mother of all the P90X workouts. I’m not sure I agree with this, but it is definitely up there. I had to do this one in the evening due to my lack of getting up in the morning. It started me off with a good warm-up. I definitely needed this. After the first few moves, I felt pretty good. By the fourth move, I could tell something was off. My left side (hip/thigh) was sore. I haven’t completely healed from my bike crash. It was not that bad were I would need to stop. So I pressed on. That is when my youngest daughter started getting in the way wanting to dance. I had the radio playing and Plyo just on cues. This was funny, but also dangerous. With me jumping all over the place, I didn’t want to land on her. I gave her a wipe to clean things in the basement and she was more than content. Then came time for the jump knee tuck/mary Katherine moves. Very tough. When you are done with these two your legs are feeling it. I was more than halfway through and feeling good, but sweating a ton. As I got near the end I noticed that this workout was not as tough as during my previous P90X rounds. I don’t know what it could have been. Maybe the fact that I did it at night instead of first thing in the morning? Having my own music playing? A strong season of triathlon? Who knows?
Tomorrow is Shoulder and Arms.
