Ready to Take the First Step?

Team Beachbody Summit

I recapped Day 1 & 2  previously. Day three started with the Super Workout. All 7,000 of us packed out the MGM back lot to workout with all the trainers.

Workout with 7000 excited people

The final evening was filled with inspirational stories (Stuart Scott Receives The 1st Ever Beachbody Challenge Inspiration Award ) and capped off with the announcement of the Grand prize winners (see links below). While it saddens me that circumstances will take people into places where they are not taking care of themselves, I am always blown away by what people can achieve as they push past their "circumstances". Actually, it is not only about the amazing testimonies of the 100 or 200 lb weight losses, but it is equally inspiring to talk to those with less shocking transformations. The same holds true for them, they are pushing past obstacles and becoming better husbands, wives, sons & daughters. Actually, Tammy and I met a couple in their 60's that have gone through the Insanity program twice. There are so many moms & dads just wanting to be good role models for their children and succeeding.

I was glad to see, after enormous growth, that Beachbody still holds true to their mission, "Helping others live a healthy and more fulfilling life." It is rewarding to see so many "ordinary" people changing their lives and paying it forward.

I was able to get to talk with  the Co-Creator of Shakeology, Darin Olien.

Connecting for the support we all need

When I get the opportunity to speak to those I coach, their determination does a lot to also keep me on track. Yet I often here, "I haven't really started yet," followed with reasons or they just can't take that first step. Tammy and I are starting Challenge groups every month. Tammy said it so well on here blog post (A Challenge Just for You! ). We would enjoy talking with you about committing to the group, send me an email message back or text me at 530-913-8522.

New Product Reviews

We still really enjoy New Vanilla Shakeology. I like all the flavors, our children had been finding Greenberry to be their favorite. I served them the Revised Greenberry this morning, and as it is true with some change, they may like the original better. We will see what time will tell. I know of many that never liked the original have liked the new revised Greenberry formula. It is does have a bit more of that "berry-ness" about it.

On the fitness front, Tammy and I have looked over the Focus T25 program. We sampled the first routine this week and mad e a little review of it here.

Coach's Corner - 6/21/13 Summit 2013; Day 1& 2

Day 1

Well Tammy and I are in Las Vegas again this year for the Team Beachbody Coach Summit.
To open the General Session, Carl Daikeler (C.E.O.) came flying in on wires. He is the kind of nut that I aspire to be like. Last year he checked off his "bucket list" by opening the sessions with shooting T-Shirts into the crowd (Carl's Bucket list). He joked after that he should have thought with more detail about shooting Black T-shirts into a dark room at high speed.

One of the next great Beachbody products is FOCUS T25. I will have a new Video clip about the routine soon.It may be a great routine to begin this July 1st in our Beachbody Challenge Group. We have found that many need a "kick-in-the-posterior" and some more accountability to get success. If you have a product and have not started, you and I both need to join the Challenge.

The next new product was a total surprise to me, Vanilla Shakeology.

I really thought that it could not be done especially after the original attempt. So proud of Beachbody for their integrity with their products. I  mixed some up in the hotel room with our immersion blender with just ice & water. I liked it a lot. Then we mixed it with some almond milk. It is my new favorite. It is so nice to have another flavor and great that it is a good base for add-ins.

Day 2 -

Started the morning with COMBAT workout with Dan & Rach. It is amazing to workout with thousands of other people. After finishing a round of COMBAT in March, it was neat to do a Live workout with the trainers. Then we were gluttons for punishment and went to workout with Tony Horton. Awesome as usual. We are having a great time
