Day 30...Plyo. 4th pass at this baby!

"Man'o manechevitz, as my uncle used to say!"

Eyes are burning from drowning in sweat? Legs crippled with fatigue? Lungs are near suffocated as they just can't seem to get enough oxygen to the rest of the body?

Good job then!

I gotta tell you, I was getting squirley on this one towards the end. If somebody was watching me they would have thought I was drunk. I'm really trying to push myself harder at this point but in doing so I think my form is suffering. Now on Plyo, since it is more cardio and jumping around I don't think the form thing is as crucial as say, the resistance exercises, but nevertheless I noticed some flailing going on...I don't know, what do you think?

While I do look forward to doing P90X each day, I should tell you that I look forward to finishing P90X each day much more. I don't want anybody to get the wrong idea. It's hard work and is not comfortable in the slightest. But it fires me up and I feel like a million bucks afterward. It's totally worth an hour of an ass kicking.

Wednesday we got a new routine again: Back and Biceps. Sweeeet. You think Sophia will be in the group??? She's got nice back...I mean a nice back.

  1. Which uncle used to say that??

    And, since you asked, I'm a form girl... if for no other reason than it's prettier to watch good form.

    But here's another reason anyway: if you're doing jump squats, for exampl, and your knees are pointing say inwards everytime you push off from the squat position, you are strengthening the muscles in that position, and in that position, you are losing some glute involvment and that's not a good plan for longterm, pain-free and functional fitness. I ALWAYS put quality over quantity, but that's just me.

  2. Usually any silly statement in a quotation comes from Tony.

    OK, I will slow it down and reel it in for next weeks plyo extravaganza. I am trying to keep their pace and obviously I'm not there yet. :(
