Day 58 - One on One Plyocide

This routine has scared me ever since I heard the title. I reasoned that nothing good could end in 'cide' ... think of all the words you know that end in those four letters. None of them are good. Plus, I haven't been overly fond of things that begin with the letters 'plyo.'

So, I cheated today. Didn't wake up early because my head is fighting a cold. Napped while my son did, and longer than my daughter. Finally stuck the DVD in once my son was asleep... but my daughter wasn't. I'm not going to lie; I did very little of the routine. The first 15 minutes were spend on a balance ball with my beautiful 18lb weight. Once she was asleep I joined in for some moves. But, not all and none for their intended length.

Obviously most of the moves in the routine are plyo. Some are isometric. Seems like there are more iso moves in the first part and more plyo toward the end. Seems like that set up just makes it harder. Plus for some moves you're doing plyo while holding a medicine ball or dumbells.

Chair while running and jumping killed me. I think this whole routine will have that effect next time, when I actually attempt to do all of it!
