Worked out today, did the beginner plyos and novice weights.

I don't know exactly what VJB has you doing. Generally pure beginners should do low set, high rep, low intensity 'plyos'. This is mainly to train muscle coordination, develop lower leg stiffness etc etc. You basically progress eventually to high intensity plyometric exercises like depth jumps after building the necessary strength (esp. eccentric). For the latter, you should do high set, low reps: you want quality over the quantity.
