Team Beachbody Guest

A few years ago, my wife and I realized that we had reached a point in our lives where we needed to make a change. This realization came, of course, after a long period of denial! It was clearly evident that our youthful metabolism was GONE and, after years of predominantly poor diet and increasing inactivity, our health had begun to decline. We decided that the time had come! Again, we DECIDED to make a change…

We signed up for one of the popular diet plans that is still very popular today and were able to lose some weight! During the same time, we joined the local gym and started exercising. Over time, we stopped eating our diet plan foods, starting skipping workouts, and started to relax our focus. We continued this “half on – half off” routine for several months.

One day, I saw an infomercial for a program called P90X. There were some AMAZING transformations in that infomercial, the kind I wanted! Even though I was impressed, there was still that “infomercial” doubt in the back of my mind that this program wouldn’t give me what I wanted. We were almost ready to cancel our gym membership when I saw P90X on TV again. I told my wife that I wanted to drop out of the gym and purchase P90X. Since the payment plan cost the same as what our gym membership did each month, we could just continue paying what we had for the next 3 months.

I first started P90X in June 2007. Even though it came with a nutrition plan, I knew my diet was good enough to get me where I wanted to be. Even with this poor rationalization, P90X allowed me to improve my fitness level greatly. I had seen marked improvement, but I knew I had missed an opportunity to get some REAL results.

Over the next several months, I kept to a fairly normal routine of P90X, but as I progressed, I would allow myself to skip days and workouts, starting another round and hitting a lull after 3 or 4 weeks. During this time, my diet began to decline. I didn't fall completely off the wagon, but I was sowing seeds that were compromising my health.

While on vacation in July of 2008, I saw the new P90X infomercial and saw more life changing stories. This made me think to myself, "You've had the opportunity to be super fit for at least a year now and you basically threw it away...." I then DECIDEd to COMMIT to this program fully and to get my body to the highest level of fitness possible!

On 8/6/08, I began a COMMITted round of P90X. After a short time, I could not believe the difference in how I felt! I was totally blown away at how this program was changing me. Not just physically, it was changing ME, inside, outside, EVERYWHERE! When I finished my first round on 11/3/08, I knew that I had made a change that was going to stay with me for the rest of my life!

In an effort to share this wonderful gift with others, I decided to become and Independent Beachbody Coach. I hope that my experiences will allow me to help others to achieve the highest levels of fitness and health possible!

Beachbody has changed my life and I KNOW IT CAN CHANGE YOURS!

I am more inspired than ever before to BRING IT in all aspects of my life!!!
