I did the P90X Plyometrics workout tonight.   I’d had a busy day and didn’t really feel like working out.  But I had eaten some cookies and felt I needed to burn them off, so I pulled out my P90X workout guide.   Plyometrics was the next one on my workout list, so I got my ass in gear and did it!

It was alot of fun and alot of hard work.  If you don’t know what Plyometrics is, it’s alot of jumping.  You definitely need to wear running shoes for this one!

I really get into the workouts, and I like the things Tony says.  For example, “Nobody said it would be easy” and “I know you’re tired, but so what!?”

I tweeted a bit before, during and after.  The nice thing about tweeting my workouts is that I have a nice twitter stream for including in my blog posts…

This is what I wrote in my BT log:
