So intead of Zombie killing with my clanmates (not that I didn't want to, I just couldnt get the game) I did Disc 2 for the P90X home fitness, the Plyometrics DVD.

 

OMG good.  They said it was one of the harder workouts and they weren't kidding.   It was 50+minutes of cardio slamming extreme explosive moves, mostly involving lunges, jumps and whatnots.   I built up more of a sweat with this DVD than I do when I do 45mins of eliptical cardio at the gym.   In a word it was awesome.   I managed to do maybe 1/3 of the activity they did on screen, mostly because i could not keep up no matter what I wanted and I was trying to maintain some semblence of form on exercises I have never seen before.

One thing I have learned, I need much better sneakers for this sort of thing. 

Today my arm is still wicked tight and stiff from DVD1 Thursday, I can't bend it enough to actually feed myself or shave, so those push ups kicked my ass severely.  On top of that I have a nice burn in my thighs and calves when I walk, which is good and I can feel some tightness in my chest from the build up of the previous workouts.

Tonight is Shoulders/Arms and the Abdominal DVD again...god help me.  I am not sure how much I will be able to do with my right arm this sore but I am going to at least try.

Keep at it man! I try to walk about a mile and a 1/2 a day. Good exercise and I find the alone time helps me to wind down a bit from the day. Where can you get the dvd's you are talking about?

The cheapest is probably through Ebay or possible used on Amazon.com. To buy them direct is somethign stupid like 120 or more....F that.
