Wednesday Post - KenpoX Review - Week 1

So, according to the P90X Classic schedule, I was supposed to do YogaX today. But, I had plans to go bowling tonight, so I figured I'd better get my workout done in the morning. But, I didn't figure that I had 90 minutes in the morning, so I decided to do KenpoX instead, which is just under and hour.

Granted, KenpoX is a different workout from YogaX, but I figured at least it was cardio and not more strength training. So, hopefully the substitution is ok.

KenpoX was a lot of fun. I worked up quite a sweat, which was good. But, my Tae Bo and Boxing Gym workouts in the past were good preparation, so I was able to keep up with the workout quite nicely. I even did all the cardio that they did - running in place, jumping rope without the rope, jumping jacks, and X jumps - during each "break". I knew how to do a lot of the moves, so the learning curve wasn't too bad. There were a lot of new moves, though, too.

I had my recovery drink during and after the workout, and then I went and got my shower. Then, I had some leftover Hibachi food for breakfast (salmon, veggies, and a few noodles). I figure I need to eat up all the leftover and such by Sunday before my husband and I go to Dallas (they're sending me to a 4 day training class for work, and my husband is coming along for a vacation).

Tonight should be a lot of fun. A friend invited us bowling. He won a bowling party with his work, so that should be fun. I haven't been bowling in years. It's good to get out and do different things. They are providing "snacks", though, so I'll need to watch out for that. I brought some extra food to work today, though (some leftover pork and veggies), so I'm going to eat that around 5pm, right before we leave to go bowling so that I won't be starving and eat bad things.
