About a week ago I posted about being worried about doing Plyo in my apartment, as I didn't want to make too much noise. Well, I went for it (had subbed in Kenpo the week before), and I'm really glad that I did. It's definitely tough and there's nothing else like it in the program. Plus, if you concentrate on soft landings, the amount of noise you make is negligible.

One thing though... my calves were absolutely killing me during the Plyo workout. I play indoor volleyball every week and even with that I sometimes find that my shins/calves really ache after a lot of jumping, and I really need to stretch them out before and after to avoid shin splints. Is this just a product of having weak calves, or am I doing something wrong? I wasn't able to complete the "hopping on one foot in an X" exercise this week with my left leg because of the calf pain. Any suggestions?

I believe the guy with one leg does a modified move on this exercise.
