P90X Day 40!!! – Kempo X (a bonus tip)
KEMPO X BABY – BRING IT!!!
Another Kempo X workout in the books! I must say that this workout rocks. I probably have said that before, lol, but it does. Some of you may not know this but I actually have a black belt in Taekwondo and this workout is a challenge for me. I have spoken to a lot of people about this workout that actually have martial arts backgrounds. The majority of them were very skeptical about the routine, most thinking that it is just some run of the mill cardio kickboxing video. However, once they tried the video, they realized that it is not the average psuedo karate video you can pick up at target. It was tough, well thought out and the moves were dead on. So, to get to my point, I am a black belt and belive in this routine. my martial artist friends all believe this workout is a great routine. So, take it from some, as Tony would say, “Karate Men”, Kempo X is a great workout! I brought it hard today!
Ok, so for the bonus tip. Here is how I am intensifying my kempo x workouts. For the entire workout, I wear a 20 pound weighted vest. This really makes me sweat and gets my heart rate up quicker. For all the punches and blocks, I use 2 pound hand weights. By the time the workout is over, I am dripping in sweat and my shoulders are on fire. I think using the hand weights is really helping bring out the defininition in my shoulders. You can get the vest and hand weights at any walmart or target. I think it might have cost me around $50 total, but definitely worth it.
