Day 3 - Plyometrics

plyometrics (n.) - a type of exercise using explosive movements to develop muscular power, esp. bounding, hopping, and jumping

Very, very difficult. I was able to do about 50% of every set that was shown on the DVD. All that extra time was used up for resting. I don't think my legs have ever felt so exhausted after a workout, and I've done heavy weight training before.

Chelsea skipped this routine because of rowing in the early morning.

Diet was pretty much normal. I kept a close eye on total calories eaten for the day, making sure that we eat 5-6 times a day, drink plenty of water, and get some protein in at every meal. Overall percentage of calories from fat was kept near to 20% as well.
