Day 5: Kenpo X and the Classroom

Today was our first real day back from Christmas break. I woke up a little late and made a Vi Shape shake before I headed out the door. The day was laid back as I allowed the kids to ease back into the swing of things. I noticed how relaxed I was, which surprised me, and felt it may have been a result of the previous nights Yoga.

Today's Workout -
Today was day 5, but somehow I misread the chart, and I did Kenpo X. I should have done legs and abs so I will be doing them tomorrow. Kenpo was an enjoyable dvd. I love my kickboxing class I take on Saturdays and this class had me to doing alot of the same moves from that class. We did a lot of different blocks and hits which really had my arms feeling the burn. We also did many different kicks leaving my legs feeling worked out but relaxed as well.

How was it? How do I feel?
I feel wonderful! I was worried that working all day would drain me enough to not feel like giving it my all BUT I persevered! I feel healthy, happy, and destressed! I will pick up tomorrow with legs and abs which is really day 5- I will get it right next week.

Sidenote -
 I have decided to join the Susan G Komen 3 day in honor of my Aunt. She has recently been diagnosed and undergone surgery for breast cancer. She is an amazingly strong woman with more class than you can shake a stick at. I have always looked up to her as a role model and she is the godmother to my son. I will be walking three days to show my support of her battle with breast cancer. I will do this for her!
