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 Stuart Werner who lost 65 lbs. in 35 months with P90X, P90X+, and P90X3. “I really enjoy Tony Horton’s instruction and motivation on BOD. I love the variety of the exercises. They way the programs mix everything up keeps me constantly excited. I like how the exercise routines can be done anywhere, that they don’t all require equipment. I travel for work and spend most of the year on the road. I can exercise every morning in my hotel room and get a killer workout to start my day. Over time, I saw my face getting slimmer and more defined. I went from wearing a size 46 pants to a size 34. I had an XL t-shirt my wife gave me that I couldn’t wear because it was too tight. Now I use it as a night shirt. I joke that I can fit a a child in the shirt with me.I feel really good wearing tight t-shirts that show off my body. I put on a pair of speedos and my wife said ‘hubby hubba.’” Way to go, Stuart!!!

Tara G.’s AMAZING Beachbody Transformation!!!

Nikki — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 15:46:24 +0000

Tara achieved this stunning transformation in a little over a year with the help of P90X®, Insanity®, and Insanity The Asylum. Now she can keep up with her Marine Corps husband, and she won $500 in the Beachbody Challenge. Enter your results for a chance to win:http://bit.ly/ChaLNG

“I chose P90X because it was the most intense program Beachbody offered—and I was looking to take no prisoners. My results were great, so I moved on to Insanity. Shaun T is amazing and has a no excuse work ethic that I love! He doesn’t baby you. It’s ‘Get fit or get out!’ You gotta love that. I love it so much, I entered The ASYLUM, and that’s my favorite program so far. I’ve lost 78 lbs. to date. I’m lean and toned, but the best news is that I can keep up with my Marine Corps husband—and that makes me really happy!

Way to go Tara!

Rachel L’s BEACHBODY P90X Transfarmation

Nikki — Fri, 30 Nov 2012 20:59:12 +0000

Racheal L.
Racheal lost 50 lbs and 4″ off her waist!

I’m a Shakeology junkie! I have it everyday, NO matter what! I actually perfer my shake over food . . . It keeps my eating clean, I don’t have cravings for sweets, my energy is thru the roof, it keeps my mood positive, I can’t say enough about how much Shakeology does for me!

What Racheal L. won:
$1,000

Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body? *I was always small in high school, that’s what everyone says right? I would look at pictures of the person I use to be and make excuses of why I couldn’t be that girl anymore. I had kids, I was busy, I couldn’t workout like I use to.Well, this was getting me no where and no matter what excuses I made for myself, it didn’t make me like the girl I saw in the mirror anymore then the day before. I felt uncomfortable in every thing I wore, and I hated going shopping. What had happen to the girl that LOVED shopping? What happen to my love for eating good, healthy food? Over the years I slowly had put on weight and was just tired of not feeling good.

What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey? *Working out and eating healthy has always been something I care about, it just wasn’t always at the top of my priority list.Two years ago my mother passed away at the age of 56, and it was at that moment that I decided to change my life, and my families. I realized I had let myself become someone I didn’t know.I decided NO more excuses, and I owed it to myself and my husband and kids to be around for them. Not only did I want to feel healthy, I wanted to get my confidence back. I didn’t feel good physically which of course was my reason for not working out. My health and my families health became my number one priority! I decided if we felt good, we could enjoy life everyday together with no excuses.

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody® help you overcome that challenge? *My greatest challenge was just STARTING! I would say ok, this week I’m gonna start. I think it was such a challenge to just start because I was afraid of failing. If I didn’t try I couldn’t fail. I was letting everything else in my life come before my health. Beachbody helped me with staying accountable! I didn’t have to be afraid because I wasn’t the only one who had these struggles. We all have personal struggles in our life and once I saw that other people struggled to, but made it to the other side, my competitive nature kicked in and that was all I needed! I have never looked back, and everyday I continue to set goals for myeslf and do whatever I can to reach them!

Why did you choose this particular program? *I have done several Beachbody workouts over the past two years, but Insanity is what pushed me to the next level in my journey! I chose it because I LOVE Shaun T.’s attitude, he doesn’t give up on you and DOES not except you giving up on yourself. He knows how TOUGH his workouts are, and he knows that not everyone can do every single move throughout the entire workout, but as long as you are giving your best, he motivates you to DIG DEEP!!

What in particular did you like about the program you chose? *I LOVE that Insanity pushes you no matter what level you are at. Shaun T. never promises it will be easy, and he encourages you to hate him, to be mad at him, but promises you will love the results! He is right and his workouts deliver.

Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of? *The achievement I’m most proud of is I feel GREAT everyday! Feeling good and living life to its fullest was my biggest GOAL, and I can say I have reached it! My health was and continues to be my biggest motivator. I love life, and now have so much energy to enjoy it! I have motivated my friends and family to take care of themselves, and realize they deserve it! I’m really proud and honored to motivate anyone I can!

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program? *My life is wonderful! I get up everyday excited and ready to take on everything life throws my way! Our health is a gift and we should not take it for granted. I have learned to look at food as fuel for my workouts, not something to reward myself with. My rewards come from feeling good about myself, and doing whatever I can to help others feel good too!!

Nikki — Wed, 24 Oct 2012 14:15:13 +0000

Lindsay is a very loving, caring, and passionate human being that I was blessed to meet and become very close friends with! She is a wonderful friend, coach, wife, and Mother to a handsome little guy =) She has been on her Beachbody journey for 9 months now (a coach for 18 months- 9 months of learning and sharing), Lindsay has done P90X, ChaLEAN EXtreme, and The Ultimate Reset!

“While pregnant I feared not being able to lose the weight because of past attempts. Beachbody took the guess work out because I followed the calendar, ate clean and drank ShakeO. The weight started coming off and my body started changing like I had never seen. I am in the best shape of my life and I am very thankful for the programs, products and Beachbody community. I drink Shakeology every day. I lost 30lbs of fat and probably gained 10lbs in muscle. I have lost 3 pants sizes and 14 inches, and I am now in my 3rd week of BBL.”

Kenna S.
LOST 81 LBS and went from a size 16 to a 5!

“I built so much lean muscle mass that I NEVER had before. I have never had biceps, abs or been able to do more than 2 push ups in a row. I have all of that now.”

What Kenna S. won:
$1,000

Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?* I had always been active. But when I got pregnant everything stopped. For some reason I was scared I’d hurt the baby if I worked out to much. So I just didn’t workout. I’d go for short walks but thats about it. I ended up gaining 80 lbs. during my pregnancy and was the biggest I had ever been in my life. I was depressed and hated how I looked. I couldn’t really do anything without getting out of breath. I would walk and my knees would hurt and I would sweat so much just doing little things. I ate whatever I wanted and at all times of the night and day. I guess I kinda felt like the weight was ok since I was pregnant. But once I had my son I quickly realized that I had a huge mess on my hands with all of this weight.

What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey? * I had my son a few months before and we had some friends coming over for a get together at our house. I thought I’d try this new workout video I got…. It was a WALKING video. And so I started it and it was one of the hardest things, just to do a walking video. I couldn’t even complete it. I was sweating so bad and felt like total crap. I was so mad that I let myself get this way and mad that I didn’t take care of myself when I was pregnant. So I started crying to my husband and said I’ve got to change and get this weight off. I can’t wear any of my clothes and what I did wear I didn’t think looked good. I knew I had to do something, so I decided to start the P90X. Even if I couldn’t finish it I would try.

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody® help you overcome that challenge? * After having my son in May of 2009 I decided this is enough and I had to figure out a way to get this weight off. I saw the infomercial for P90X and knew that was the only program that was honestly gonna give me my body back. I knew there was no short cut for weight loss and I just had to put in the hard work. What got me to purchase the program was a woman on there in a Pink Bikini saying that she was a Mom and able to workout at home. It’s crazy because I can still remember her before and after pictures in my mind. She made a huge impression on me. I remember wanting to be like her because she looked so happy. And I felt like total crap about myself. I had never been this much over weight and I was depressed about it. I purchased P90X. And I made a choice to change. So I got the P90X videos in the mail and I was so excited to start it. Beachbody taught me to Eat Right and modify workouts until I can master them. Beachbody has truly changed my life.

Why did you choose this particular program? * I chose P90X because it seemed like people had the best results and I wanted to get the BEST RESULTS. I remember seeing a woman in a Pink bikini on the infomercial saying she was a mom and how she was able to transform her body all while working out at home and still taking care of her kids. It’s funny because I can still see that woman and what she was wearing in her before and after pictures in my mind. She made a huge impact on me buying the videos.

What in particular did you like about the program you chose? * I loved that it was something different everyday. Not the same workout that you do day in day out. It was different and I liked that. I liked using the weights since I had not done anything in almost a year and gained 80 lbs. I knew I needed to build muscle. I liked the push ups. I had NEVER done more than 2 push ups back to back in my life. I liked that it came with resistance bands and nutrition guide. Since I had been eating so much fast food and processed foods it’s almost like I had forgotten to cook healthy meals. Honestly when I ate bad it’s like my mind was gone and I didn’t know what to do to get back on track. So the nutrition really helped me. I remember cooking the Lemon Chicken and thinking WOW this isn’t bad at all. I CAN DO THIS.

Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of? * I used P90X and ChaLean Extreme during the course of my weight loss. I built so much lean muscle mass that I NEVER had before. I have never had biceps, abs or been able to do more than 2 push ups in a row. I have all of that now. Plus I have a metabolism that burns like crazy from eating every 2.5-3 hours and going by the nutrition guide sent with the programs. I’m just proud that I stuck with it and got those 80 lbs. off that I had gained during my pregnancy. Honestly I didn’t give myself any other choice but to get those pounds off. I think anyone will be successful if they have the proper mindset. Our minds are our most powerful tool.

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program? * I am now a Team Beachbody Coach. I started a Facebook Fan Page called Goodbye Fat Hello Muscle and it now has over 20,000 followers. I am helping Women and Men all over the World. And Its all because I decided to workout with P90X. I know that without Beachbody NONE of this would be possible.

We are proud of you Kenna for all of your accomplishments. Keep inspiring people to change their lives. You have an amazing Beachbody transformation and you should be proud to share it with people!

OPENED DOORS…. MY STORY

Nikki — Fri, 14 Sep 2012 18:22:09 +0000

Why I invested into MY FUTURE….

I have always been the “big boned” “skinny fat” girl that played athletics all her life but had to work to stay smaller (size 6 was my smallest) until I went to college and did nothing and started taking diet pills and became anorexic and bulimic (very disappointed in myself for getting there but it happened) and I can admit now that it was a horrible way to try to be skinny! So after college I got pregnant at 20 with my daughter and gained 76lbs and weighted in at 200lbs the day I delivered her… I went to the gym and got down to 138 in 7months and then found out I was pregnant with my son… Got back to 200lbs the day I delivered him as well…But the weight would not come off and so one night I saw the informercial for P90X and I ordered it- I said I have tried everything else why not try this, so many people are finding success… So I did it for 4 weeks and quit a year later and 5lbs gone a friend messaged me and said she became a coach and was wondering if I wanted to try shakeology– I pondered for a month or so and said you know what I have P90X and I see people are losing weight with this shake I’m going to try it, I was so depressed with what I saw in the mirror, who I was and I was completely uncomfortable in my own skin I could not believe I let myself go and did not join an accountablity group sooner- I went all in on accountability and joined as a coach to stay motivated… We started a challenge group and I did the full 90 days and lost 20lbs and went from a size 8/10 to a 4 and then followed that by Insanity and lost another pant size! Since than I have completed P90X2, ChaLEAN Extreme, Insanity Asylum, started doing Tai Cheng (because I have a neck injury and was told not to do high intensity but got cleared) so I am starting round 2 of ChaLEAN Extreme and could NOT be happier.. In 4 days I have lost 3.5lbs and feel AMAZING, so much energy and momentum to PUSH HARDER!!! I have gained 10lbs of muscle in the past year, after Insanity and I am currently 136lbs and muscle and can say I’m pretty confident in who I am today!!!

So before I started actually “coaching” I was an Office Manager for my dad and then a Full Time Substitute Teacher, as you may know teachers and office managers do not make a WONDERFUL pay, BUT I was getting by, I paid my bills; student loans (after having to defer them for hardship), gas to get to and from work, groceries so my family could eat, and try to make the minimum payment on my credit cards (racked up debt while in college and not having a job them a baby that needed cared for).. YES my husband is in the picture and has a FT job but he was paying for the mortgage and house bills amongst health insurance, car insurance, house insurance… EVERYTHING ELSE! Well it was a struggle because I was putting my Shakeology and Business Fee of 15.95 on a credit card so that I would stay active, I had my husband become a coach to rank advance (money expenses paid out) and I was putting our financial situation at jeopardy… Finally 8 months after I became a Coach I was seeing a return, people were trusting in me and knowing that my transformation changed my life that I could help them change theirs! now 17 months after signing up I am close to another rank advancement and making DOUBLE what I would have being a teacher in the public schools. I am hoping that April 2016 (5 years as a coach) that my husband will be able to retire and be a stay at home dad- take and pick the kids up from school, take them to practice, coach them, and NEVER miss any milestones!!!! I AM SO PASSIONATE IN THIS JOB IT IS UNREAL!!!! I want to help so many others become FINANCIALLY FREE, if you can relate in any way CONTACT ME!!!

LIVE YOUR LIFE. DREAM BIG. MAKE IT HAPPEN.

What to do when you take time off of P90X, Insanity, or any other Beachbody Program?

Nikki — Wed, 05 Sep 2012 20:07:10 +0000

So you get sick or busy or life gets ahold of you an you just need a day or two to rest… THIS HAS HAPPENED TO US ALL!!! What do we do after we are ready to come back??? Do we start the week over, do we start the program from Day 1, do we double up on our missed workouts… NO YOU START WHERE YOU LEFT OFF!!! It is ok that your program goes 91 days, 65 days, or 39 days! WE ARE NOT PERFECT and life may get in the way! We all get sick and we all have days where we barely have time to go to the bathroom… IT IS OK to take a day to rest!

When you are sick or have a pounding headache and try to workout through the pain… You are only going to injure yourself more… your immune system is not 100% and is telling you you need to slow down… SO LISTEN! When you workout through illnesses or pain your body will never recover and you are only going to get sicker or injure yourself worse!

You never want to take the chances with any cold or injury so make sure you consult a doctor before going back to your workout regime! Also anytime you are sick you should check to see what your doctors says or feels you should do! I personally thought I just had a neck pain and it turns out I have Neck subluxation and cannot workout intensely for the next 12 weeks.. bummer YES, but if I would have not gone to the doctor, I would have never known that I would be off for that long! SO CHECK WITH A PROFESSIONAL!

Once you are cleared to workout, PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF!!! Each Beachbody Program is designed the way it is for the BEST possible results! So if you take too much time off, yes restart it! This is just my advice and recommendations!!! I hope this helps you in the future =)
