I have a couple of days of posting to catch up.  On Friday, day 12, I did legs and back.  Last week I did burpees during one of the circuits.  That’s not a good exercise to do during a leg workout.  My legs get so wasted during the i30×5 workout that it is hard to get up off the ground and jump.  So at the suggestion of one of folks (Steve a.k.a boxcarvibe) who regularly stops by at Project Exercise, I sub ‘d out the burpees with plank pillars.  It was a good choice.  It was funny though.  I have never done these and I looked like an uncoordinated buffoon trying to do the movement.  By the third round I was getting the hang of the exercise, but I was so wasted that it still looked ugly.  Anyway, the leg workout was pretty decent.

I also had a good shoulder workout.  After round 3 I had to drop the resistance a bit.  2o sets and around 250 reps will give you a pretty good burn.  The i30×5 workout will exhaust the muscles if done correctly.  At the end of one of these strength workouts, you will leave everything behind.

I cleaned up with about 20 minutes of abs/core.

Today, just for the heck of it I did Interval X Plus.  This workout is extreme.  It comes close to the Insanity plyo sessions.  It starts out easy enough, but by the time you hit the mid-way point, the going gets rough.  For those of you who of done this P90X+ workout, you know how you feel when doing the Calito 3 ways.

Here is a video Steve recommended. They do the pillars at around 34 seconds.
