What is Kenpo Karate
According to Beachbody, Kenpo X was created to give P90X
users a high-intensity cardiovascular workout packed with lots of punching and
kicking combinations to improve balance, endurance, flexibility, and
coordination. Tony Horton, the creator of P90X, will guide you through each
exercise and instruct you how to perform each movement with precision and
control.
History of Kenpo Karate
Kenpo is used as a cardiovascular self-defense workout.
According to Daily Burn, kenpo karate stated with native Hawaiian Ed Parker
Sr., who studied under martial arts master William Chow and Lau Bon. Parker's
journey exposed him to the spectrum of martial art forms that originated in
China, India, and Asia, which he combined to create Kenpo, a raw
street-fighting style and the first American system of martial arts.
The Workout
The Kenpo X workout involves a warm up, 45 minutes of drills
and then a cool-down. The drills include kicking, punching, some blocks, and a
few combinations. Also, the workout has cardio breaks sprinkled throughout that
involve doing jumping jacks and plyo jacks to keep your heart rate up
throughout the routine. Kenpo X is one of the few P90X workouts that don't
require exercise equipment; only your body weight is needed..
Vorteile von Kenpo X
Kenpo X is a non-stop cardiovascular workout that will
increase your aerobic endurance, burn calories and promote heart health. This
martial arts inspired routine will give a well rounded core workout, since you
will utilize your abs to lift your legs during kicks, and twist the obliques
during punches. Also, Kenpo X will increase flexibility, since this workout is
one of the more athletic routines included in the P90X program.
And next?
Individuals who have performed the Kenpo X workout multiple
times and would like to increase intensity could use various exercise equipment
such as weight gloves or a weighted vest. Weighted gloves will increase the
difficulty of each punch thrown during the workout and increase your calorie
burn. A weighted vest will increase intensity during kicks, jumping jacks and
plyo movements. Beginners should avoid increasing intensity until they feel
that they have become proficient in their punches, kicks and combos.
The exercises are
usually 30 seconds some of them are
1 minute and you have to repeat all of
them. After a few times of warm
up my favorite exercise begins: you take a chair (preferably
a bar stool) and swings right and
left leg about it. For the next minute you just think right leg, left leg – so funny. After the first half the workout gets more
intense, this was the point I had to stop in the first week. Your
heart rate is very high and the sweat just flow! But keep always in mind: You
can do anything for 30 seconds! 
breakfast
This week is special because it’s my first recovery week **wuup wuup** It all Starts with Core Synergistics! It's like the little sister of Plyo X or Kenpo X. Not that extreme but still very intense. From the fun factor it is like Kenpo X. As soon as you start it it’s over. But you feel very good after it and just want to do it all over again!
