All those squaty jumpy things where you land back in a squat were pretty hard for me. Since I haven't done it in some time it's going to be worse tomorrow.<BR/><BR/>~RReedsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235713513617918694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21280038.post-4235019430443438172008-04-07T18:19:00.000-06:002008-04-07T18:19:00.000-06:00oh my gawd! just did plyo...i haven't done much ov...oh my gawd! just did plyo...i haven't done much over the past 6 months and the bounce has definitely gone from my step...regardless, or irregardless (if we're making up words), i'm pooped; took the pups out for a cool down and never felt like vomitting on a dog walk before. btw, my abs, back and chest hurt from yesterday; this all sucks, in a good way. oddly enough, i'm not as excited about shoulders and arms tomorrow (okay, maybe a little excited). these workouts are much stouter than i thought they'd be. good luck everyone.<BR/><BR/>marcAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21280038.post-24120037141974898302008-04-07T16:50:00.000-06:002008-04-07T16:50:00.000-06:00Like Sk-hawt (and you and probably everyone here) ...Like Sk-hawt (and you and probably everyone here) I'll get most of my cardio on the bike and from running. Cardio X was designed for a workout during doubles. It's by far the easiest workout in X though, as I found out last week, it ain't all that easy when you're not used to X. Chest and Back today, right after I tire out the dogs for a warm-up. I'm so going to puke.Steve Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17639176315514772554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21280038.post-52269941178351258142008-04-06T23:16:00.000-06:002008-04-06T23:16:00.000-06:00Steve,I'm all ready to start tomorrow with Chest a...Steve,<BR/><BR/>I'm all ready to start tomorrow with Chest and Back and Ab Ripper X. I see that you have Cardio X for Saturday instead of the Kenpo X in the book. Is there a reason, or just personal preference.<BR/><BR/>Keep pressing play.<BR/><BR/>~RReedsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235713513617918694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21280038.post-10506524063901887622008-04-06T20:27:00.000-06:002008-04-06T20:27:00.000-06:00Super proud of everyone!

I'll also do all the measurements and a before photo. Should be good for motivation, although I won't necessarily like to look at it. <BR/><BR/>"Specificity.

This week I've tested the waters with each day trying a new workout: I've done Plyos, Ab Ripper (which I couldn't do all the sets), Legs & Back, and Yoga. I will be passing on the Kenpo and will be getting my endurance from riding and running (which I will be doing 4-5 days a week).<BR/><BR/>Looking forward to the discomfort and progress.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
