Round 3 / Day 9: P90X+ Interval Plus

The first few minutes of Interval Plus were deceptively easy. After a five-minute warm-up, Tony announces that we're going to do 15 different exercises -- each for one minute. That doesn't sound so bad, I thought. How's this going to be different from Insanity Pure Cardio?

(What are you looking at, Tony?)

More after the jump.

Round 2 / Day 9: Insanity Plyometric Cardio Circuit

Today's workout was exhausting and I took more breaks than planned, but because I've completed the Plyometric Cardio Circuit workout once before, the familiar sequencing of the moves made for a less bewildering experience. And now that I've had a chance to repeat this video, I can honestly and objectively report that In-Out Abs and Ski Jumps were forged in Hell by Satan himself.

P90X Day 9: Plyometrics

I'd attempted Plyo once before officially starting P90X, so today was technically my third stab at it. It's still insanely tough, and my sweat just pours down in sheets throughout the workout, but I felt a lot more comfortable with the moves, and didn't have to pause the DVD at all -- a huge feat for me. I need to work on my form in some of the exercises -- towards the end, I tend to get sloppy and wobbly -- but otherwise, I'm starting to feel pretty damn good about Plyo.

(Sadly, Tony Horton hasn't gotten easier to stomach.)
