P90X - Day 21 - Kenpo X / X-Stretch

Okay, so I slacked for a day, and didn't do a thing yesterday.  I just felt like crap, still.  But I'm allowed - nay, REQUIRED to take one day of rest each week; preferably as a stretch day.

But since I didn't do my extended stretches yesterday either, I did them as a combo workout today.

So I started the day off working out my TKD students, introducing them to some of the Kenpo X routine, but far shortened, and far less intensive.  But it was fun.  But this evening, I did the Kenpo X routine in full.  I got dizzy for a few seconds (a bad sign), but it went away and I seemed to get my second wind.  Damn, that's a fun workout, but INTENSE.  A lot of punches, kicks, and blocks, all built into a rather coordinated cardio workout.  I even gave a few copies to a couple students so they could work on their fitness levels at home.

X-Stretch is exactly that: extreme stretching.  Basically, an hour of stretching from head to toe (literally).  It has some Yoga elements in it, but it feels sooooo damn good after you're done.


Tomorrow starts Week 4, which is a reduced intensity for most of the components of P90X.
