Trainer versus P90x: Day 2

I woke up this morning with my shoulders and upper back quite sore and I think that if I had pushed myself  harder on Day 1, I would have been immobile. I followed the meal plan all day and cannot remember the last time I ate so much protein in one day. I am on the Energy Booster plan which consists of 40% protein, 40% carb, and 20% fat. I am also eating 2,400 calories per day. That’s 240 grams of protein per day, which I think is way too high, but I’ve committed to following the plan for 90 days. It didn’t take long for my digestive system to figure out that I was stuffing protein on top of protein and let me know it’s unhappiness.

Day 2 workout: Plyo X:

Today was plyometrics, better known as jumping up and down, twisting, squatting, and lunging until you want to vomit. The exercises are geared to mainly work your lower body, core, balance, and cardiorespitory system and they definitely do! I got through about 40 minutes but just couldn’t motivate myself to do the last set of jumping lunges, squat jacks, and knee jump tucks. I simply ran out energy (and water too). My legs will not be thanking me tomorrow!
