We made it through 6 days of intensity. Day 4 was YogaX. Probably the hardest yoga either of us have ever done. I have done yoga, pilates, and bikram yoga before and enjoy the poses and the workout, but this was the mother of all yoga. I think the founder went through every kind of yoga and took the hardest poses and then put those all together to create YogaX. It was 1.5 hours of pure hell. Runners pose to crescent to plank, etc. The upside was that after 3 days of weight lifting and plyo, the yoga actually helped repair and recover many of our muscles. The morning after yoga, when J and I woke up, our bodies actually felt much better and we didn't have the muscle pain and soreness we normally have.
Day 5: Legs & Back. Squats, lunges, pull-ups, wall squats and calf-raises.
Day 6: Ken-Po. This is the mother of all kick-boxing workouts.
Day 7- Friday our day off. It was nice to sleep in and not have to wake up at 5:00 am to workout.
Most people quit after the first week, so we have to challenge ourselves to keep going and start the second week.
