Kenpo X
Although I love the workouts that help me build my upper body (chest & back, shoulders & arms, legs & back), Kenpo X has become be favorite from the standpoint of staying entertained by the routine. Its a fast paced workout from beginning to end.
There is a lot of core work here, as week as a hell of a cardio affect. Definitely build a sweat in this one!
The routine is about 1 hour. Its almost all kicks and punches. Last week, I felt a huge burn in my groin the next day. I'm thin and reasonably athletic, but haven't been exceptionally flexible. This routine will undoubtedly help with that.
My wife joined me for the first time for this workout, which was cool to have a partner. We did many days of Jillian Michaels' 30-day shred together until hernia surgery forced her to the sidelines.
I felt my groin a little more during the workout than last time, but a little less today (day after). I worked hard to get my kicks higher.
I did need to rewind a few times to understand the series of motions, but generally understood pretty well. There is one series of 4 blocks which I had trouble with in week 1, and again this week, even after a re-wind. I just make a mess of the 4 separate motions.
I felt it in my shoulders, arms, abs, and legs today. It was awesome, I cannot wait to do it again!
