Day 6 - P90X Challenge - Kenpo X

Yesterday I did P90X Legs & Back - which was very lunge-happy. Let me tell you- I am feeling it in my glutes today!! Crazy sore! After a very long weekend and very little sleep (hit up the Virginia Tech vs Boise State football game at FedEx Field last night -- Go Hokies!) I was not looking forward to today's workout...

Food: 
Snack: -
Lunch: Potbelly Skinny PB&J on Whole Wheat
Snack: -
Dinner: Chicken/cheese/peppers/rice home-made wrap (post-work out)

*Water all day with FRS supplement added in.

Exercise:
P90X Kenpo X - Cardio/Martial Arts based workout consisting of kicks and punches


How Did I Do?
I loved this work out. Really brought me back to my point fighting days when I trained in Tae Kwon Do. A lot of similar exercises, so my muscle memory kicked in and my pivots came pretty naturally. I sweated a LOT and it felt great. The warm up stretches were hard- particularly with my aching thighs and hammies! This workout went by the fastest of all of them so far (just like Tony said it would) and I look forward to doing it again!

My one big complaint with the P90X program is all of the selling. They are constantly pitching their website, the drinks/supplements, etc. And after your program is over, a straight-up product infomercial comes on. Lame. But aside from that, Tony is a great host- just love him as a workout leader!

    This workout looks pretty sweet! And I enjoy reading your experiences with it. I don't know that I'm nearly that hardcore, though. I may, however, get serious about doing the Bollywood Bodies workout. And maybe I can blog about it, too. Hmmm....

    Its hardcore for sure. It really works out your whole body but in a staged approach. And the interval training keeps you from breaking too bad on any single set. What is Bollywood Bodies?
