I'll give you a little tip if you've yet to start the program. Day 1, is hard no matter what— it's Day 1. Day 2 you hit Plyometrics and by the end of it (if you can make it to the end) you feel like, damn, if this is an indication of what P90X is, then I'm toast! It really is that tough...no kidding. But the wonderful thing is that Plyometrics is the pinnacle of the program (from what I have seen so far). It's the hardest routine so, the beautiful thing is, once you get past it, the rest seems that much easier! Don't get me wrong, each workout is tough but, Plyo is the benchmark, and everything else falls beneath it.
This week, I actually made it through to the end, and I performed better on all the exercises! You start getting stronger right away with P90X (either that or you start to build a higher tolerance for pain). There is a particular move called Rock Star. This has to be one of the hardest. If you can imagine, jumping up with both legs (heels to your ass) and aggressively rocking out a chord on your "air guitar", then you get the picture of what the Rock Star is. You do this 10-20 times and tell me how much energy you have left :) and that's only one of like 15 exercises that you do....then repeat, again and again and again. Conquer Plyometrics, and you can crush any of the workouts guaranteed!
