Started out easy, and ended up hard.

Round 2 / Day 61: 100 Pull-Ups + P90X Ab Ripper X

There's nothing like attempting 100 pull-ups in the morning to make you feel at once like a circus strongman and a 90-pound weakling. Until a few months ago, I'd never managed to do more than two sets of 10 pull-ups in a single workout, so I'm still shocked that I can now crank out 100 of them (albeit split into 9 or 10 sets). But I also find myself struggling like hell to eke out the last few reps of every set, and feeling like my arms are going to detach from the rest of my body.

P90X Day 61: Legs & Back + Ab Ripper X

My lower right leg's been killing me for the past few days.  Despite being supported by more orthotics than those worn by Frankenstein's monster, my right foot continues to overpronate and cause shin splints.  Having to limp through Legs & Back wasn't exactly fun, but after popping some ibuprofen, I managed to complete the workout -- as well as Ab Ripper X -- without too much discomfort. 

But believe me when I tell you that Siebers 80-20 Speed Squats (one-legged squats that quickly explode up into a jump) are not a good idea when you're nursing a fucked-up leg.
