I am going to attempt Plyo legs week 4 today. Not sure when I will get those last 3 upper body workouts in. If there are overhead moves with the weights I will modify. Can't remember for sure if there are or not. I will do a little extra cardio and some stretching/rolling.

Theresa, good job with keeping the eating right.

I'm curious to see if Linda is sore today. The only part of my body that is sore is my abs. Got me, I didn't even work my abs yesterday. I guess those Dive Bomber Pushups did this to me.

Today was cardio and I did Plyometrics X. Wasn't looking forward to it because I HATE Plyometrics, but I have to say I had a blast. Very fun workout and it went by in a flash. Intervals of 30 second and 1 minute blasts. Hardly any rest inbetween. I liked it and I did my best with each interval.

I'm liking my stats:

60 minutes total
6 minutes below zone
15 minutes in zone
41 minutes above zone
504 calories burned!

Debbie - Yes I am very very sore. Not my abs though, just my back and my chest all the way down through my rib cage. Nice job on Plyo X. I really liked it too. For me it went on forever, but I was running late and watching the clock like a mad woman. So what do you think of Tony?

Morning Maniacs -

Have had a couple busy days........3 doc appts on my day off yesterday and now I don't have a day off until Thanksgiving! Thus, the life of retail.

I did Patrick G's Hardwork Conditioning 24/7. Workout was 70" and I burned 600 calories. This had some different moves in it that I liked. Was a little hard to pick up....but nothing like HWC 2 which I've only done once, as it was hard to follow and tough. I'll have to try it again.

Have great workouts everyone.

Diane Sue - Sorry you are so busy all the time. I hate that. When I'm home and I think I can finally sit down and work on some of my crochet projects, the phone rings, or I have to help my mom with something. It's always something. Thanks for giving me where you ordered Tracey's workout.

Ally - Hi girl! We miss you!

Roslyn - Nice job on Insanity! You are smokin' these workouts!

Theresa - Your menu looks good. Turkey meatloaf sounds heavenly.

Linda - I'm glad your dad is ok. Could be just stress causing his pain. I hope they figure it out. Ok, so I am going to do P90X Chest and Back the way it's written. If you are that sore, I'm sold. I have a question on your numbers. For instance with Standard pushups you put 30/5 and 15/20. What does that mean? With Reverse Grip Chinups you put 3/13 and 3/13. Also, I pm'd you.

Lora - Nice calorie burn! Hope work is good today.

Debbie - On the Standards Pushups here are how the numbers breakdown - the 30/5 means on the first round I did 30 on my toes before dropping to my knees and pushing out 5 more, the 15/20 means on the second round I managed 15 on my toes before hitting my knees and doing 20 more. Same with the Reverse Grip Chinups - managed 3 unassisted on both the first and second rounds and both times managed to do another 13 assisted. Going to check the pm now...

Diane Sue - I keep meaning to ask you, have you tried rolling a tennis ball around your injured area? I put one between my neck/shoulder and the couch and press down on it. I roll it around and try to work the knot out. It helps ALOT. Then I ice it. You might want to give that a try.

 

[WD]

Debbie, I never really liked Plyo X that much but I did get pretty good at it by the end of the rotation. That is the same way I feel about P90X+ Intervals. I do get great calorie burns with them and my legs are generally sore. The tennis ball just might work to get into the are better. I don't have one though. I used ice at first and have switched to heat. It seems heat has been working better than the ice. Although I sat in the jacuzzi tub this morning and it made me feel sick and dizzy for some reason You know, last time my dh was gone for a year I thought I would have more time to paint and crochet and work on my scrapbooks. I hardly did anything. More crocheting than anything else because I drug it around in the car with me.

Lora, it looks like you got a good workout in even with the long work hours. Nice calorie burn.

Linda, I forgot just what all was on the P90X workout. I liked the dive bomber pushups.

How do you do your chins assisted? Do you have a chair below you?

Actually I used my high step and set it out in front of me a bit then just placed the front half of one foot on it for assistance like the chick in the video did.
