Fitspiration Friday… Congratulations to Dave Lee who lost 101 lbs. in 16 months with Focus T25, LIIFT4, MBF, Shaun T Week, Insanity Max:30, and Portion Fix. “I felt really shy about my body. I hated the way I looked and felt and would continue to eat to make myself feel better. My confidence level was awful and I was very self-conscious. Ultimately my kids and my family are my motivation. My father passed away at an early age and did not want to follow suit. Many years ago I had the original P90X DVD set and really enjoyed it. I wanted to do something similar to kick my butt into gear. I can look down and see my toes now. I have a lot more energy and I can roll around and play with my kids without getting winded. Having more energy throughout the day has been amazing! I feel better and no longer snore at night of have difficulty breathing. My blood pressure and cholesterol are both way down.” Way to go, Dave!!

Transformation Tuesday… Congratulations to Wayne D. who lost 10 lbs. in 1 month with Core De Force. “I realized it was up to me how I would come out of the isolation and challenges of the pandemic – either less healthy or more healthy. I chose more healthy. … I liked the MMA inspiration of the program [Core De Force]. I liked that it included cardio, strength training and core. It was hard work but fun, which kept me coming back. I also love the ease and flexibility of accessing the program and workouts on Beachbody On Demand. It couldn’t be easier. I am stronger. My cardio, core and strength are improved. I lost weight (10 pounds in 30 days). I feel better, stronger and healthier. Thanks!” Way to go, Wayne!!

Fitspiration Friday… Congratulations to Issac S. who lost 72 lbs. in 9 months with 6 Weeks of THE WORK, 4 Weeks of THE PREP, LIIFT4, 10 Rounds, P90X, P90X3, and Beachbody Performance Energize + Recover. “LIIFT4 and 10 Rounds helped me kick start everything to get back into fitness. They’re good for beginners and Joel is a great trainer. I love the lifting mixed with HIIT and core at the end of his workouts. 10 Rounds really got my core going and was just so much fun that I forgot I was working out. 6 Weeks of The Work is the hardest program I’ve ever done. … Amoila is the best Beachbody trainer hands down and he pushes you to the max every day! Overall, my energy has skyrocketed! I feel confident in myself like I can accomplish anything that comes my way. I’m finally getting a little bit of bicep muscles, which is nice, because I’ve always been the skinny arm guy. My next goal is to get my abs back in time for summer.” Way to go, Issac!!

Fitspiration Friday… Congratulations to Kameron K. who lost 105 lbs. in 15 months with 10 Rounds, Shakeology, and Beachbody Performance Energize. “During my last visit to the doctor, they weighed me, and I was the heaviest that I had ever been nearing 300 lbs. Seeing the numbers was all too real and something that I could no longer deny. I hated what I had turned myself into. I knew, even if I didn’t really believe it, that I was better than that, that I had lost control of my life and still had the power within me to get it back. 10 Rounds is just as much fun as it is effective. A high energy, immersive, weight-shredding experience. I immediately fell in love with the trainer, Joel. His energy and enthusiasm was equal to the genuineness in his passion and effort that go into every workout. I loved that each day was different, no repeats from day to day. Every workout leaves me dripping. The program as well leaves so much room for personal improvement; I’ve done it through several times and always find myself being pushed farther than before, always ending each workout completely drenched in sweat. 10 Rounds feels unique, personal, and authentic. It’s always a challenge no matter how many times I do it, which is exactly what need and what I love. The changes in my physique since starting my fitness journey have been immensely rewarding. Just being able to fit in more clothes and not have to worry about needing to continuously buy plus sized wear just to stay comfortable has been more than worth the challenges I’ve faced. Being able to be confident in my appearance is one of the greatest gifts I’ve ever given myself.” Way to go, Kameron!!

Transformation Tuesday… Congratulations to Phil N. who lost 28 lbs. in 3 months with MBF/A, 2B Mindset, and Beachbody Performance Energize. “My wife inspired me to start this journey. She recently gave birth to twin girls and was not happy with herself. She decided to give [Beachbody] a try and wanted me to join her. Well, I did, and now she’s become my Coach! I loved MBF/MBFA. Megan [Davies] the trainer was great. She was motivating, but not annoying. She did all of the work with us. The moves to the beat were awesome, and the music was great! I burned so many calories. We did MBF and MBFA twice each! The third week of MBFA lower day was so hard! I almost passed out the first time. But by the next time through, I was able to complete it and increase my weights. I’ve lost [almost] 30 lbs! I had to buy all new pants, shorts, bathing suits, and shirts. I also have more energy for my 3 young kids. I think I’m starting to see the resemblance of what could possibly be a six pack?! I’m just happier overall.” Way to go, Phil!!

Fitspiration Friday… Congratulations to Shawn N. who lost 71 lbs. in 19 months with 10 Rounds, 4 Weeks of the Prep, Transform:20, MBF/A, 645, Reset, 6 Weeks of the Work, BODi, 2B Mindset, Shakeology, Beachbody Performance Energize, Hydrate, Recover, Recharge, Creatine, and Collagen Boost. “I watched [my wife and Coach, Stephanie] take control of her health, lose 90 pounds, and transform body, mind, & soul. She became a happier and healthier version of herself and showed up as the mom and wife she was made to be. … I needed to put the effort in to follow her example and be the example for our kids, to be able to live a happier, healthier and more fulfilling life. Everything has changed, in a good way. Aside from losing over 70 pounds and dropping multiple pant sizes, I have more muscle definition than I have ever had. I can physically do things I couldn’t even do when I was active in college. I have a 6 pack which feels crazy to type. I sleep better. I can keep up with my toddlers, I can enjoy activities like hiking again, I wakeup feeling lighter and more rested. My physical changes allow me to perform better at my job. I look at my body and my abilities differently now. It’s like I actually understand how capable, powerful and resilient our bodies are.” Way to go, Shawn!!

Fitspiration Friday… Congratulations to David S. who lost 60 lbs. in 11 months with 10 Rounds, LIIFT4, Portion Fix, Shakeology, Beachbody Performance Energize, and Beachbody Performance Recover. “I was the heaviest I’ve ever been. I couldn’t even recognize myself anymore. One day my 8 year old daughter asked if I could help her with her Taekwondo training, but I physically couldn’t do it. That’s when I looked into finding something to help me take back control. I actually stepped out of my comfort zone and signed up to take Taekwondo with her! I quickly found that I got winded quickly and could not keep up. If I ever wanted to succeed, I had to do more. I just can’t get enough of Beachbody programs. I love how they compliment my Taekwondo training and the best part: it’s fun. Joel [Freeman] has always been my favorite Super Trainer and I tell him and tag him that as often as I can. I know where I would be without him, and it’s not a good place. Joel knows what he’s doing and he is such an approachable person. He makes you feel like you are part of the cast and that you are as important as anyone else in the group. He reminds us that if we only do one thing each day, we should at least move. Get up and do it. I am excited to say that I am 7 Taekwondo Belts higher, 3 pants sizes smaller, 2 shirt sizes smaller and 10 belt loops tighter. I have muscle definition and I might be seeing a tiny little ab! I am so much stronger, faster, more confident and most of all, healthier. And I owe it all to Joel, Beachbody, my family and my own dedication, desire, discipline and determination.” Way to go, David!!

Fitspiration Friday… Congratulations to Roger S. who lost 63 lbs. in 8 months with 645, Portion Fix, Shakeology, and BBP Energize + Hydrate + Recover + Recharge + Creatine. “Things have been tough in my personal life. My wife left me in June, before I began this incredible journey. I just decided to jump back into exercise and get my old self back. I used to be a very active martial artist, and I wanted to be able to take pride in my body again. I was 268 pounds. My friend Kim encouraged me to join her on 645. I’ve decided that it would be a good idea and joined the program on day one. I noticed right around stage two that I was feeling a lot better. I felt lighter, stronger and happier overall. Once we got to stage three I felt ready for anything. I started doing ‘bonus work’ through 645 more frequently with the workouts. It’s become a very fun experience, and I have gone through the program twice now. 645 has been my favorite exercise routine. I think the fact that we did full body workouts and focused on our stability and mobility throughout the week really helped me get the results I was looking for. … I never thought I’d weigh in at 205. That puts me at a total of 63 pounds lost since [I started]. … I feel very clearheaded and strong. I can tell I am signi?cantly more mobile. My balance is back to where it was 10 years ago. I have of?cially lost every pound that I put on in the last 10 years.” Way to go, Roger!!

Fitspiration Friday… Congratulations to Allister MacDonald who lost 41 lbs in 5 months with LIIFT4, MAX:30 hybrid, 2B Mindset, Shakeology, and Beachbody Performance Energize. “Beachbody on Demand was instrumental in my success. With the click of a button and the appropriate equipment, who needed a gym? The world was shut down and the app came to the rescue. It helped keep me on track. Heading into 2021, NEW YEAR NEW ME LOL, I hopped on board the cliché train and decided to basically focus on my health in a way I hadn’t before. My sister is an avid Beachbody user so she recommended some coaches and programs she thought I would gel with, and thus began my journey. 6 weeks of 10 ROUNDS. Upon completing the program I was down 12 lbs and feeling motivated. I kicked it up a notch and created a hybrid program for myself of LIIFT4 with INSANITY MAX:30. Completed it. And then completed it again. And doing it AGAIN! I’m now 19 weeks into my journey, I’ve lost FOURTY+ POUNDS, see a remarkable difference in my athletic build and ability, and balance has returned my life. As an actor, I can see the worry of ‘what I look like’ washed off my face. I can focus in on what is important, and access freedom within that, without being constantly worried about and uncomfortable in my body.” Way to go, Allister!!

Fitspiration Friday… Congratulations to Jose Reyes who lost 49 lbs. in 5 months with 9 Week Control Freak, MBF, 2B Mindset, and Shakeology. “Before I started, I felt very fatigued and a little depressed. I think living through Covid took a toll on all of us. I was worried about my health and noticed when I tied my shoes my stomach was hitting my legs, and I couldn’t breathe like I used to. I actually had the thought that I may not make it to see my kids grow up if I didn’t make a change. I have so much more energy now! My clothes are actually big on me. I am able to coach better for my son’s team sports. I feel happier and my relationship with my wife has improved. I’m proud that I am waking up everyday at 5:45 to push play with my wife! I never did that in the past.” Way to go, Jose!!
