Yesterday, plyo went better than in the previous two weeks. I keep getting better and better and the moves, and my overall leg endourance is greatly improving. There were only a couple moves (mary katherine lunges and the runner stance 180's) that I couldn't make the entire 30 seconds without a break of some sort. It makes me laugh about the first week, when about two thirds of the moves had me huffing, puffing, and stoping about halfway through the time.
It seems like Tony has arranged these workouts well. The rest/X Stretch day comes in very handy, and by the time the plyo comes around again, my legs feel refreshed and much more limber than the week before. I'm slowly gaining flexibility, but I'm still not flexible at all. At this rate though, that will be completely changed come day 90.
My arms are getting stronger, and I can now notice a bit more definition in my bi's and tri's. I'm doing around 10-15 reps per exercise because I'm not really interested in getting bigger. I don't really believe that your arms won't get bigger if you do as many as 10-15 reps per set, but we'll see come the end of the program. I'm just more focused on definition and getting ripped since I already have a fair amount of size.
I'm still very excited for day 30 when I will take photos and post them. You'd be shocked at the transformation my body has made in only 17 days. Sigh, only two more weeks to go and the photos will be in!
My energy level has been kind of low the past couple days, but I stuck it out through the workouts. I can't seem to go to bed early enough to get up easily at 5:30 in the morning. Seeing as how I won't work out after I get home from the job, I have to do it before. Plus, I feel like you'd get more results this way because as soon as you wake up, you're shocking your metabolism and setting your body to burn more calories over the course of the day. If someone identical to me were to workout in the evening and we were to compare our results, I think mine (at least in regards to the fat/weight loss) would yield better results.
We'll see. I'm also starting to pay attention to the ridiculous things Tony says sometimes in the videos, and I crack up. I know some people think he's annoying, but I get a kick out of him (maybe because his lame jokes and goofy attitude resemble my personality?). I LOVED when he goes "Todays tip of the day, DON'T BREAK YOUR FACE." It was said during those dumbell tricep presses when you're on your back and the weight is pushed up from behind your head to directly over your face. I laughed. I'd never heard him say that before for some reason. Apparently they make shirts that say that too, and I'm probably going to get one, because it's hilarious.
Welp that's all for now, and remember the tip of the day!
