Look at meI love the Kenpo X and feel like I'm doing great, but I have to admit, when I look at this video, two words come to mind: Sloooow Mooootion. My God! I'm not trying to be overly self-critical, but I look like I'm at an underwater tai chi class. Granted, I do have some force and if I caught an opponent with a fist, foot or knee, I'd definitely hurt them. But that assumes that I would actually be able to catch them. Thank God, I just do this for exercise. Thank God, I'm an accountant and not a bouncer.
I'm the great white hope[ful]
Can't you see
I'm up against the ropes
Don't you know
It's so hard to cope
When you feel
Like the great white hope[ful]

Karen joined me for the workout today and really enjoyed herself. She's becoming more and more of a P90X fan and works out with me at least once to twice a week now. It's always more enjoyable to workout with someone else. I especially enjoy working out with my girlfriend and sharing our healthy past time together. Karen and I started dating last Spring after we met at an exercise boot camp.
Karen's and my next goal is to convert the third bay of her garage into a home gym. Currently, when we want to do anything other than an X Stretch or a Yoga X workout, we have to go to my house. This is inconvenient on the weekends I stay at Karen's house. Therefore, I'm compiling a To Buy list and will start working on this project soon.
In the meantime, I think I'm going to try to try to speed things up a little bit. At my size I'll never be a fast-forward kind of guy, but I definitely don't want to be Mr. Slow Motion either. Don't worry. I guarantee you that I'll keep at it. I may look a little hopeless in the video, but on the inside, I'll always be The Great White Hopeful.
