Anyone do Plyometrics? I just started about a week ago and I cannot get over the difference already. I have been trying to lose my last 5-10 pounds and have been stuck in a rut for a while. I guess this is just what I needed.
If anyone has any exercise tips or suggestions for Plyometrics, I'd love to hear!!

    One of my favorite plyometric exercises is jump squats on a bosu....I did them this morning as part of my warm-up for "leg" day in the weight room. If you get really good at these you can do quarter turns as you are in the air, then work up to half turns, and then ultimately 360 degree turns before landing back on the bosu. They really work my legs well--love 'em!! :wink:

    I was doing P90X and when it was Plyometrics day.WOW it was the hardest thing I've ever done...I barely made it thru the entire disc lol... I was able to continue but around the 3rd time I did the Plyometrics disc..I hurt my knee:sad: it was awful....I couldnt workout the way i wanted to....after 3 months im all better and ready to try it again! Make sure if your working out on a hard surface, you have your mat ready..it really helps....
