August 3rd 2010 Daily Update

Tuesday morning, no early meetings so a chance to do my 6:45am workout followed by breakfast. Tonight is Plyometrics (jump training) which is the toughest of the P90X sessions but also one of the ones I enjoy, I just have to be careful with my knees.

No aches or pains from last night's P90X Chest & Back so my body is adapting, not bad for a couple of weeks.

Morning

I'm continuing the Sprint 8 reverse in the mornings and it continues to be a lot more difficult than the forward direction. Left the lights switched off in the gym this morning in the hope of keeping the room a bit cooler and not having to put the fan on... big mistake, had to hop of and switch on the fan part way through.. have learnt my lesson!

• Elliptical Sprint 8 reverse: 270 kcal, 145/156 bpm, 00:57, 17:01, 02:28

Afternoon

Wow.. what a killer.. by the last few rounds I was hardly getting my feet off the floor.. could also feel a slight twinge in my right Achilles tendon. I'll need to keep a careful watch on it as I don't want to have an injury.

• P90X Plyometrics: 707 kcal, 139/161 bpm, 15:04, 32:10, 11:46
