What is a Team Beachbody Coach?

Back in 2009, when I started on my journey, I was randomly assigned a Team Beachbody coach, but not once was I contacted by that “coach”.  Now unfortunately, this happens from time to time as some coaches are not as engaged as others are and/or should be.  Which is fine, but for the unlucky members […]

Bonus Ab Routine

While I love the ab routines that are part of the P90X, P90X2 and P90X3 programs, I am always looking for some ways to mix things up a bit in the Ab department.  We all know that if were to stick with lifting the same weights in the gym every time, our bodies would hardly change. This is […]

Tips for Dieters: Surviving Summer Parties

Warmer weather means smaller clothes. Swimsuits, shorts and tank tops can be your worst enemies if you haven’t been getting regular exercise for a while. So now is the time, with days being longer and temperatures milder, to start working out in earnest. However, summer also means parties, socializing with friends and family, and food. […]

Chris W. Got Ripped With P90X2

Chris was another guy that I met through the awesome X2 Crew Challenge Group and his story is super motivating!  Like many, Chris started with P90X, but didn’t stick with the nutrition and his results weren’t what he was looking for. But when P90X2 came along, he wanted to do it right.  I’d say he nailed it […]

Hey Team! Happy Mother’s Day weekend to all the mothers out there!  One of the traditions that we have at my house on birthdays and both Mother’s and Father’s day; is breakfast in bed.  The kids really get into helping out on Mother’s Day, I have no idea how much they help on Father’s Day…  […]

Terry Before P90X and P90X2

Terry – P90X2 Results and Transformation

I became friends with Terry through my first round of P90X2.  He was a co-member of the X2 Crew, a challenge group that allowed all members a place for support and accountability.  Since then, Terry and I have moved on to a 2nd round of P90X, though now a hybrid with the Insanity: The Asylum […]

Coach Chris Check-In

Hey Team! This week I started my P90X2/Insanity: The Asylum hybrid!  Man what a week!  I have done a few a of the original Insanity routines in the past, but never a full 60 days.  The Asylum program is based on a lot of the same cardio moves that are featured in Insanity, but with […]

Challenge Groups

Back in January I started my first Challenge Group and most of the members of the group are just about or have recently completed their 90 day programs.  Programs like P90X, P90X2, TurboJam and Ten Minute Trainer to name a few.  In my opinion the group had tremendous success and all of the members who […]

Hey Team! Nearing the end of a much needed recovery week for me!  Then it will be the final push of P90X2 with the Performance Phase of the program, looking forward to the new routines.  Recovery periods are important, so that your body has a chance to rejuvenate and get ready for another phase of […]

Coach Chris Check In!

WHY Why are you working out? Why are you reading this? Why are you pushing play? Why are you studying P90X, P90X2, Insanity, Pump, etc…, and watching YouTube videos to decide if you even WANT to push play? You can do all the research and planning you want, but if you haven’t asked yourself the […]

Hey Team! Less than 100 days left until the start of the Memorial Day weekend!  I’m already in my second week of phase 2 of P90X2 and posted my 30 day photos.  While I didn’t have the stellar progress that I expected during that first 30 days.  Many of you and my friends indicated that […]
