Day 6 - Plyometric Cardio Circuit


I hate plyometric day! I had hoped it would be a little easier the 2nd time, since I have been trying to push myself in other workouts. I had hoped it wasn’t as bad as I remembered it.  I had hoped I could make it all the way through. NOPE!

I am getting a little bored with the same warmup and stretching each time, but I assume that’s never going to change so I’ll have to get over it. The first interval set was okay. I made it pretty much through with only a few very brief pauses. Sometimes I feel myself slacking off, especially when it comes to those power squats, but I tried to speed up each time regardless.

It’s that second interval set where I want to just crawl back into bed. Again, the basketball jumps to the level 1 drills to the ab work…  I can’t make it through one rep of one exercise on any interval without pausing and taking a break. I think I may have even been going at half speed on the level one drills - if I was moving at all. This is definitely the section that I need to work on most.

Thankfully my leg felt a little better when I woke up this morning.  I can still feel a little tightness, but not like yesterday where I could feel it pulling. I may have taken it a tiny bit easier today, but not much.  I am taking my heating pad to work to keep it loose.  
First week complete!
