This workout is part of the P90X set. The guide states that it it one of the easier workouts and intended to be used as an add-on or when you do not feel up to Kenpo or Plyo. This workout is different from those in that it does not follow a particular style--rather, it contains shorter sections based on other workouts in the series.

It begins with a short warm-up of athletic cardio moves such as jogging and jacks, then goes into a yoga section. Such experiments always feel really out of place to me in Tony's workouts. He doesn't cue very well, and it never seems to flow for me.

The second section is based ont he Kenpo workout, and has 5 short combos. I found these a bit simpler choreography-wise than the actual Kenpo X workout, which was a relief. Again, Tony's cueing is barely there but if you watch one rep you'll be able to figure out what to do. There were some moves here I have not seen in other kickbox workotus, such as a "knuckle" punch and a fun 3-direction kick.

Next is a plyo section, which is a lot of fun. There are five moves done for about 30 seconds each, then you repeat the sequence. Some of the most interesting were a swing kick (which I have seen in the Body-B-Fit workouts using a stability ball) and a "jump shot" where you pretend to catch a ball and then shoot it into an imaginary basket. These moves were a lot of fun and not as difficult as I thought they would be.

The final section is based on the core synergistics workout. Some of the moves such as the banana were odd choices to include in a cardio routine, but some of the moves (for example the "squat run" and x squat) were very good and kept the pace. There is a short cool down after this which includes a bit more yoga.

The time went by really quickly due to the variety of activities here. I was not wild about the yoga part and I wish Tony would cue a bit better, but he is a motivating instructor and I really enjoyed this workout.
