P90X, Week 5, Day 6

Just finished another late-nite workout, Kenpo X, which burns around 600 calories. In addition, today was my step aerobics day at the gym, so I burned close to 600 calories in there as well. I went for a short 20 minute walk with one of my clients, burning about 70 calories there... So overall, I burned around 1220 calories, which is about what my daily caloric intake is for FOOD. Not all of my days are like that, mind you, but Tuesdays usually are.

Kenpo X was ok, but my body was fatigued from last night's legs workout and this morning's step aerobics. I could tell while doing the kicks that the backs of my legs were pretty sore (hamstrings and backs of knees). This is most likely due to the number of hamstring curls & squats I did last night, combined with the number of kicks we did in step aerobics class. Kenpo X is pretty fun, and now that my forms look better, I can visualize someone's face while I'm throwing punches, which is a bit disturbing, I admit. But hey, at least I know how to block, punch, and kick in case I'm ever attacked in a dark alley way somewhere.

Well, I have to hit the hay. I have an early morning meeting, and I will be put on the spot and have to speak in front of a group of my peers, which always makes me really nervous. In other news, I booked our summer vacation tonight... We will be going to Hilton Head, SC again (we went last year). We stayed in a luxurious resort last year, but it wasn't available for the time frame we wanted this year, and everything else on the east coast was pretty much booked. SO I found another smaller, LESS luxurious resort on the beach for us to stay in. I pray that it's decent. It's beach front and has 2 pools (one heated), a jaccuzi, a club house with activities for the kids, playground, tennis courts, etc. The only thing I don't like is that the laundry facility is separate from your room. Last year we had it made. Trying not to compare the two places too much, because I know we will have an awesome time together regardless. Hilton Head, SC is beautiful and lush and green, and there's really good shopping, restaurants, and family oriented activities. August 19th is our scheduled arrival date. Pray for NO HURRICANES that week!!!
