p90x Day 2 Plyometrics
Didn’t get a chance to post yesterday or today because I was really busy. I did do Plyometrics yesterday, and holy crap it was hard. The high-impact nature of it bothers me a little, but I think I’m going to get a really shock-absorbing yoga mat to help out with that, and it’s one of the few workouts that I’m doing with shoes on. Since it has so much jumping, I had to do it in the garage, which isn’t too bad.
I’m trying to figure out the best way to handle posting information to the website. I don’t particularly like posting all the numbers since it takes so much effort to post that. I’m thinking I’ll just talk about improvements during the posts. Maybe I’ll post my spreadsheet. I’ve been research the “power score” thing that one of the blogs I read has for showing progress. I might implement something similar.
Also, for cardio-type days (Plyo, CardioX, yoga, etc), I think I’m going to just post my heart rate information. I didn’t use my HRM yesterday, but I totally should have.
Since my HRM outputs everything as XML, I’m working on a small C# program that reads the XML file and generates the charts for me. Currently, I’m using a python script, but I think I’d rather make it a more robust, ui based system that allows me to save the file out as a PNG or maybe it even uploads the file to my blog?
Anyway, yes. Plyo was great but hard. My knees don’t hurt too much today.
