Beachbody has helped me achieve a superb level of health and fitness. My primary workouts have been P90X and ChaLEAN Extreme and I love both of them. In between rounds of P90X or after ChaLEAN Extreme, I use 10 Minute Trainer which is perfect, also, for time challenged members.

To fuel my body, I use 9 Beachbody nutritional products including Shakeology, which since starting to use it after its release has helped me take my performance as a runner to a new level.

I am here to help and guide you in every way that I can.

WELCOME TO YOUR SUPPORT THREAD!!!

I have been a Beachbody member & customer since 9/2006, 6 months before I was turning the dreaded 50! Never having exercised in my life, seriously, I decided to do Turbo Jam because of the music. I bought it have been hooked ever since! I have branched out and tried other workouts like Hip Hop Abs, Chalean Extreme, Slim in 6, Slim Series, and Slim Express! I love them all but Turbo always has the the power to get me moving even when I don't feel like it! (I love Turbo so much that in January this year I became TurboKick Certified and will be going to Chalene Johnson's TurboKick Camp 2009 in August as a newbie!}

Beachbody has helped me to release 63 pounds and get off all prescription medications that I was on!!! emoticon

My husband Graham/aussiecoach is currently doing P90X and has lost 62 pounds so far!! We are both using Shakeology daily and are loving the effects of it. emoticon

I am addicted to BEACHBODY!!! emoticon emoticon

Would love to help and encourage you in your fitness and health goals in way I can!

Welcome To All, New and Experienced!!

I have been working out with Beachbody products since Oct 2007 and I am feeling better than I ever have. I routinely workout with P90X and when I am on a time constraint or traveling, I will pop in the 10-Minute Trainer, who would have thought you could get such a workout in 10 minutes.

As far as Nutrition I have tried a number of the products that Beachbody offers.

As mentioned earlier, I have never felt better. I am 40 lbs lighter, I have more energy, at all hours of the day. I just love getting up and meeting challenges everyday.

I would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have or just provide a little extra motivation on those rainy days.

Hey everyone, I'm Tim, and I'm here to help.

Getting in shape is hard. You're going to need help along the way. There will be times when you want to quit your program, and there will be times when you fall flat on your face nutritionally.

When that happens, don't get discouraged. I know that you have the power within you to make incredible changes. Get up off the mat and KEEP GOING. Keep going, keep going, keep going.

Keep.
Going.

Joyce, I hope that you had a bunch of Success Buddies. I was just reading an article by Brian Tracy entitled, "Success is Not an Accident" and that is why the people that we work out with are our Success Buddies.

If you are living the, "I used to be able to" life of being out of shape and carrying around a little or a lot of extra weight and you are thinking what's the point, then think again. Success isn't an accident and you can and have to make it happen.

Tim, I wish that we had a big hand that could reach out to every Beachbody member that is about to quit and pull them back up to their feet. There is a Norwegian proverb that says, "Heroism consists in hanging on one minute longer."

We're here to help members keep going so that they can succeed and be heroes in their own way - for themselves and for others.

I just placed an order in the Team Beachbody store and it was order number 5 million and something. I have never been dissatisfied with a Beachbody product or returned one, so congratulations to Beachbody for making so many great products and selling them to us to help get us fitter, stronger and healthier!

In the morning, I log into WOWY and do as much of P90X as is appropriate to my running training and then do my running workout sometime after 4:30 pm.

As I was running just now, I was thinking about our new message board and about how, by now, members have seen a lot of self promotion and "selling". We are completely committed to the original purpose of the message boards which was to give honest advice and help people improve their health and fitness.

Over time, you will see that we stay true to the original vision and ideals of Beachbody.

Just checking in before I start my P90X workout for the evening.

Today was a good day for me diet wise. It was also a good day for me in terms of water consumption. It took me many years to understand the importance of 64 ounces of water per day at a minimum. Not only for hydration but also for cleansing vital organs.

Thank you, Rich, for all of your support, motivation and superb example! emoticon

Angie, why don't you tell us a little bit about your history with exercise and feeding yourself and your family.

Have you done a Beachbody workout DVD before or followed one of the nutrition plans that comes with most of the DVD's?

Do you and your kids have to lose weight and are you making this a family commitment?

I don't know how many of you Twitter, but it can be quite fun - and informative. And if you are someone and say something on Twitter, everyone will find out. So it is with Brett Favre when he Tweeted Monday evening that he, "Did P90X in the basement just now. First day - chest & back. Pain!! Everyone who has done P90X can relate to that!

Hey Rich..I don't twitter and I still heard about about Brett Farve's twittering. Twittering seems pretty popular right now. I thought about signing up just not sure I am ready to tackle the learning curve yet.

Well, Anna, the only learning that you have to do is to learn to say something worth people's time to read in just 140 characters. Like anything else, there are a lot of people tweeting stuff that is just personal. But some things really touch people's lives and that makes it worth it. Brett Favre doing P90X is an example, but I don't see a Tweet about him doing Plyometrics X yesterday, so he needs to get with the program, so to speak.

Success truly does come from support, accountability and motivation and that is exactly what we want to provide you. If your flame has gone out, we as coaches can re-light it. If you still have the ember of past success glowing inside you, then we can make it glow more brightly and and help you turn it into a fire of desire.

I follow Chalene because she is really funny and I get Tony Horton's Twitters, too. He is currently challenging Ashton Kutcher to do One On One with him:

"Poor Poor Baby @aplusk I challenge you to a one on one session! Let's see if you can hang with me emoticon"

Yesterday he followed up with, "Still waiting @aplusk".
