Day 2: Plyometrics X and the doubters grow....

Well, Plyo X is actually a really doable workout, and my god do you get a good sweat on. The reality of plyo, to me, is all in the head. I KNOW I'm on course for a good result and I know that I ain't quitting. So I just clench my teeth, get those last two leapfrog laterals, rock hops, knee jumps, whatever out, give a little scream of pain, recover (by mopping up the sweat puddle so I don't slip while Tony explains the next move) and then get right back into it.

Something I don't understand, though, is despite all this determination, sweat, and even a near puke so far (day 1's queasyness after ab ripper), people are still going "lawl you aren't really working out hard." Well, uh, yeah, I am. Sure, I'm not going max revs yet, but I'm going 85%-90% as suggested on all the forums with all the P90X threads I've read. "Ease into it the first week by going near max, then the rest, go all out"

So, my statement to those detractors, is simply: go somewhere else, troll.

If there is a legitimate concern, then I will listen. But from now on, anyone that blatantly trolls? Ignored.

Anyways, looking forward to using the chinup station tomorrow. Glue has dried and the test hang (my dad on one arm, me on the other, and it barely flexed) has my confidence in the build. Ready to rock! RAH! \m/ >_< \m
