Plyometrics
Here is some more info about Plyometrics:
Plyometrics loosely translates into “jump training”. There are also plyometric exercises for your upper body, but the really intense, fat shredding plyometric exercises are the kind done in the P90X plyometrics program, and they are primarily lower body movements.
There are numerous benefits to plyometric training, and you get a healthy dose of all of them in the P90X program.
As with all exercise programs, the more you put into it, the more you’ll get out of it:
•Massive calorie burn
•Increased balance
•Increased endurance
•Increased explosive strength
•Increased strength of muscles as well as all connective tissues
•Massive metabolism boost from the sheer intensity of the exercises
•Increased confidence in your ability to really push the limits and to make measurable progress
There is a guy in the P90X Plyo video that has a guy with a prosthetic leg, and not only does he pull off the workout, but he excels at it. So, with no further excuses available to not give it 100%, the exercises begin!
