p90x - day Kenpo

I've totally lost track of what the days are now, so I'm just going to start putting the workouts that we did. Tonight was Kenpo. Nothing new here. We've done this workout already, so we knew what was going on. I've noticed a small increase in hip/knee pain, so I am trying to be careful with some of the kicks. But the punches and stuff, we really try to increase the intensity. It's still a great workout and definitely works up a sweat.

Aside from that, we've been having a discussion about the diet plan. We haven't been following it at all, and I'm wondering if that is really going to play a major factor. I know that in order to get the 'cut' definition and the 6-pack abs, the diet is going be 95% of it. I want those results, but I'm starting to wonder if our current diet just isn't going to be enough. As I've said before, we generally eat pretty healthy. For instance, tonight was a chicken breast, green beans and some risotto. For lunch I had a sandwich, an orange and a piece of string cheese. Unfortunately, I forgot to eat breakfast because I got busy at work. But usually I eat some granola.

Occasionally we'll eat something that might be processed...or might not be totally 'healthy' for us, but I think the good well outweighs the bad. I know that the diet plan is extreme. But, I'm thinking that we'll complete this first series without changing our eating...and see what results we get. I think we've both already decided that we're going to do at least a 2nd pass at this. We've got some trips planned that happen to fall shortly after the 1st pass, and shortly after the 2nd pass. So, if after this first time through I don't feel like I got enough of the results that I want...I will consider really changing my diet. I'll have to follow some other people's blog and see what they are doing for food. The hardest part for us is going to be planning it out for the week. But we'll tackle that when we come to it.
