P90X: Kenpo X

Day 6 today! It's 7:30am and I am finished with my P90X workout for the day. (Side Note: IF you can get into the habit of waking up early, maybe even super early, to get your workout in, the day is even better. Endorphins!)

Today's workout was Kenpo X. Like me, you are probably saying, "What in the heck is Kenpo X?" Here is what Kenpo X is according to P90X Website.

In one hour I was hitting, kicking, jumping, punching and engaging in non-stop movement. It's a hard workout, but an extremely fun workout! 

Tomorrow is finally a Rest or Stretch Day for P90X. I will take that day and enjoy it, too! I believe one key to success with any fitness program is that you must stick with it, enjoy it, shake it up, BUT you must also give yourself a day (or two) of rest. It's during the "resting" that our muscles rebuild and recover to prepare for another tough workout! Cheers to Friday Eve!

    I can't agree more. For the past few days I got up at 5am and did some TaeBo before heading to work. Greatest workouts and greatest days ever!

  2. It's great any time of the day, as long as it gets done! But, I find that the morning just gets me going AND sometimes as the day goes on I find I have less and less energy and am more prone to saying, "Nah - I'll skip it today!" I never want that to happen!
