i haven't started yet, but i went for a run yesterday and my (unfit) legs coped ok ... so i'm gonna try today and see how it goes

from looking at the site, the beginners version involves stuff like jumping onto and off a box, taking big bounds with one or two legs... it looks a good way to beat your legs into shape

from the "weightless exercises" thread:

cheers for pointing me that way guys

EDIT: damn the link highlighting on this board! this is the link, it's in the quote but you can't see it : LINK >>> Plyometric exercises
