This is probably my favorite i30×5 workout.  The arm workouts were also my favorite when I was doing P90X.  Oh, heck, I like doing arms no matter which workout I am doing.

I have a real love-hate relationship with i30×5.  I love the intensity, I hate the intensity.  Oh, what is it that Tony Horton says about Ab Ripper X, “…I love it, but I hate it”.  i30×5 is extreme.  My arms feel like they are going to bust right through my skin at the end of the workout.  The plyo at the end of each circuit just wipes me out.  I was dragging during the 4th round.  The plyo was getting sloppy.  Since form is more important than reps, I slowed it down until I could do the movements correctly.  I had to drop some of the poundage to get at least 10 reps in my 30 secs during the 4th and 5th rounds.  The cool thing about i30×5 is that even when yoru muscles feel beat, you can lower the weight and crank out more reps.  That is what is giving me the incredible pumps.

I was so wasted after biceps and triceps I just did ARX and I only did the minimum number of reps.

I remember coming across this video last spring. It is kind of long, but watch it if you have time. You will be rolling! LOL!!! The first part is before he starts his very first P90X workout.   At around 1:30 he is back after the workout… that is where it gets amusing.
