Day 69

Yesterday was different, I was tired, that hasn't happened lately, but I guess vacation caught up with me, or it cold have been the ride home (14 hours).  Anyways, the workout was Kenpo and I surprised myself.  I was able to do the whole workout, I threw every punch and kick in this routine.  This was the first time for me, but I hope it's not the last.

Kenpo is a different kind of workout, but I like what it gives me!  I think this one has helped me more than I thought it would.  Let me explain! 

In the beginning I thought this workout was kind of stupid, but now that I am 69 days into the workout I see the bigger picture.  I have gained so much flexibility in this workout, never saw that one coming.  I see how each workout supports the next.  Just three days ago I was sore and my stretches did nothing for me, now I can touch the floor, and I think that most of that comes from doing it so much, but the other part is this workout.  Before I started this workout, I could not kick at all now, I still struggle with my balance, but I can get through the workout a lot easier than I could in the beginning. 

Early on I was afraid of throwing punches and kicks, now that I am stronger and more flexible it takes less energy to complete this workout.  My stamina has gone through the roof and I like that. 

I am so looking forward to X Stretch later today, I need a good stretch after a long week, plus it will get me ready for next week.  Like I said before each workout supports the next one, so today's workout is very important.
Bring It,
Kevin
