Day 27 – Plyometrics, The Last Day of the First Month of Workouts


Well I made it through the first month.  There was just more day of round one plyometrics to tackle. Even though I was exhausted, I really tried to push through it all. And I did for the most part. The only pauses in workout were during ski abs and in and out abs (as usual). I tried, I really did, but my arms got tired from holding my body, and I was dripping sweat. I have pretty much conquered Level 1 drills now, which makes me proud, thinking how far I came with those. What I have also noticed is my feet start to hurt during some exercises. I wonder if that’s more to do with my old shoes though…

My tailbone still bruised, which makes the squats a little more difficult. The knees hurting again some, which is normal for me. But other than that, my body feels ok.

I hit the gym after work for 50 minutes on the elliptical and 10 minutes on the stairclimber. It definitely felt like a good workout day, which I totally destroyed by making lasagna (albeit with squash and zucchini) for dinner.

There is now a one week recovery of sorts, with Core Cardio and Balance every day. Seeing the times on the second month of workouts makes me a little nervous – an hour (or more) every day!  I need to decide whether I can get up earlier to do this in the morning, or if I need to switch the workouts around. Stay tuned for first month overall thoughts.
