Day 2

Day 2 was Plyometrics (Plyo-X) It is hardcore cardio jump training and very challenging. It is every bit as challenging as it was 2 years ago and more with the added 2 years of age on my body. It is still a very fun and gratifying workout. Probably tied for second with the Yoga-X workout.

The workout took an hour and I burned 934 calories. Probably even more since my heart rate monitor was wigging at the beginning of the workout. There is definitely tons of room for improvement. My feet were burning during a lot of the twisting exercises. I have low arches and not sure if it's my shoes or just my feet but they were burning much more than my 1st go round with P90X. May need to invest in new shoes along with a new battery for my heart rate monitor.

My nutrition was pretty much spot on today. I feel like I am eating all the time, weird thing is I feel like I am always hungry. I am eating a lot, but it's all healthy. Oddly enough I don't really have any cravings for Diet Coke or unhealthy snacks. Granted it's only day 2 but here's to hoping the cravings stay away. I am drinking tons of water too. About 3 liters a day!

The soreness from yesterday (chest and back) really started kicking in towards the end of the day. I missed that soreness and look forward to it everyday. I thought the eating would be the biggest challenge but I am finding that sufficient sleep is going to be challenging. When you workout strenuously you body needs rest and I haven't been able to settle into better sleep habits yet. Just another challenge to work on. I know it's not going to be easy and that it's definitely going to be worth it.
