DAY 6: Cardio Plyo Circuit

Wahoo - my first repeat workout. I know, that's not what I'm going to be feeling a in a couple of weeks when I've done this routine SEVERAL times, but for now - wahoo! :) This time - I made it through until the warm-up, stretch, first time through routine 1 and the second time through routine 1 before I needed to break. I was really impressed with how much I could handle, even from Day 2. Mostly I think it's because I knew what was coming and I'm learning how to pace myself during the warm-up. Now appreciating that the "circuit" routines have you repeating the same circuit three times in a row - and for you to do them mild, medium and hot - makes my stamina last longer! During the second routine, you drop and do "Level 1 drills" - 4 push-ups, mountain climbers in plank, ski jumps in plank and ab in and outs... and it's pretty intense. But, I could do WAY more this time than before! And my push ups are returning to normal... On Day 2, I did more of my push ups like my nephew - not really going down, just a slight dip and that's it. So, I felt much better today really lowering down each time.
