I have never done P90X, and until two days again, I didn't even know my husband was in possession of the fat-burning, muscle-carving, badass-making workout DVDs. Out of the 12 workouts, I randomly picked the one-hour plyometric workout. The second sentence the trainer said in the video was something to the effect that this particular workout is the mother of all the routines in P90X. Instead of ejecting the disc, I decided to give it a go. I survived the madness for 30 minutes before switching to abs. I was able to keep up with the 15-minute ab video pretty well until these side crunchy V-ups... ha! Thinking I gave a good first showing, I went to bed an accomplished P90Xer.
Then I woke up today. The burn sure did set in over night. My quads and hammies reminded me every time I stood up or sat down that I was too big of a baby to run outside in 50 degree weather but thought I was tough enough for P90X.
