Day 45: Max Plyometric Interval!
Sorry, I am lame tonight. Maybe will do notes tomorrow!
But instead, here are some videos of me working out!
Video 1 ~ Max Plyometric Interval ~ Warm-up (Set 3)
Remember, the warm-up is 3 sets repeating. This is my third set, meaning it is moving the fastest.
Video 2 ~ Max Plyometric Interval ~ Final Interval ~ 5:30 min
This is the final interval of exercises during the actual workout. I was pretty tired by now... but I did my best! Kind of. I think I can do better!
p.s. Did you notice my shirt says "Size Does Matter?" I'd always laugh when I'd wear it to the gym. Always makes me think of the huge muscle guys trying to get as much hypertrophy as possible!

Max Interval Circuit
Wow! Today was ultra fun! For some reason... exercises seemed easier! I was still tired, but I found with myself with more energy during certain exercises that were really tough the week before. I also surprised myself with my endurance.
Warm-up
The switch kicks and side to side abs usually kill me during the warm-up. Today I was able to do both exercises during a majority of the time. That surprised me a lot! Maybe because of the accomplishment felt from the warm-up, my workout intervals were pushed hard. I dug deeper! lol XD
Let's switch up the reviews! Let's review the workout by interval!
Interval #1
:: Pedal runs + 4 lunges / Ski abs + Push-up Jacks + In-out abs + Oblique Push-ups / Power Strikes / Frog Jumps
Wooo! My first set was awesome! Was able to complete almost all repetitions! Then came set 2... and set 3! I did pretty awesome during this. I was surprised I was able to do so many Frog Jumps. Most trouble was with the Push-up jacks and Oblique push-ups!
Interval #2
:: 4 High Hooks + 4 Low Hooks + 4 Jumpropes / High-Knee with Oblique Twist / Hi-Lo Jabs with Squats / Floor Switch Kicks
Don't know what I ate/drank or if I was spiked with something... but my Jump Ropes were awesome today! I did every single repetition and during the second and third set, I actually was ahead of Shaun T's count. I was awesome! Surprisingly the Floor Switch Kicks weren't as bad as last week. I was actually able to jump instead of just kicking! I gave a goal of 20 switch kicks before I was allowed to take a break. I was happy with my second interval!
Interval #3
:: Side Suicide Jumps / Squat Hooks / Full Body Drills / Plank Punches
The Side Suicide Jumps weren't so bad today! Surprisingly the Squat Hooks were. I always laugh when they when they show the shaved head guy doing this exercise (I think in set 2?). Oh maaan... Full Body Drills. Those moving push-ups! I don't even remember doing them. I was pretty beat by then, but had to really dig. I was surprised how hard I was able to push through Plank Punches!
Good workout today!
After Insanity, it was time for more walking/running! Half and half. Legs felt pretty jello-y after Insanity today!
Walk / Run 2
Total time: 15 minutes
Walk time: ~ 10 min
Run time: ~5 min
Total distance: 1 mile
Walk distance: .5 miles
Run distance: .5 miles
Calories burned: ~100 kcal
