Day 9...Plyo. Hello!

I swear they didn't have workouts like this back in the day.

Definitely as time goes on, everything we do as people becomes bigger, faster, harder and more. Look at the X Games for instance. When I was a kid I thought I was the coolest kid in town because I could throw a 360 on my BMX bike...with or without a jump. Now there are triple backflip-twist-no hander- no footer-bar spins-with a tail whip thrown in for good measure...and everyone is doing them! How about snowboarding? Forget it.

If I were to coach wrestling again, I would want to incorporate this workout into the practices. The whole team would be CIF champions. Seriously.

Within the 1 hour period I:

-became soaked with sweat,
-pissed off my quads,
-thought I developed an anuerysm,
-thought I was having a heart attack,
-got a little dizzy,
-lost my balance and near fell onto my rower.

Still can't keep up with the one legged dude, but you know what? Having two legs means I am heavier and have to work harder so I don't feel so bad this week.

See you manana.

  1. Good job bro. Plyos are tough when you're already in shape let alone in your second week of working out again! Impressive! (or stupid. time will tell.) :) Love your reports! Love you.
