So you have finishedP90X, Insanity, Turbo Fire or one of the other awesome Beach body work outs and you are wondering what a Beachbody coach is and if you can become one. The answer is yes.  You can become a Beachbody coach even if you haven’t finished any of the Beachbody programs. Of course making yourself familiar with programs like P90X, Turbo Jam or Insanity will help with your overall success with your business, it is not mandatory. We have found that for those who have completed a program, there success is better.  That type of person has made a lifestyle change and if looking at more then just the money.  They have made a commitment and that is what it takes to be successful in this business as well as stay fit for life.

If you enjoyed your Beachbody work outs and find yourself talking about them with other people then the coaching program is for you.  This is all we do.  We share a healthier lifestyle with others.  You do not have to be an expert or a personal trainer, you just have to like helping others. (There are a lot of trainers and nutritionists that are coaches.)

If you are wondering if you can do it, I would have to say yes.  If you stuck to your work out program then all you need is that same type of approach with the business side of it.  Stick with it, stay consistent and it will pay off.  Beachbody has the system in place, all you have to do is follow it.

If you have any question at all feel free to send me an email or give me a ring and I will get your questions answered for you.  You can also take a look at the video below which is a presentation that shows how Beachbody works.

P90X or Insanity? Insanity or P90X? Which work out is better?  This is a question that I receive all the time and the truth of the matter is that they are both awesome work outs.  If you ask ten different people you will probably get ten different answers based on which work out that particular person liked best.  So to say which one is best depends on you and what you like.

Insanity is extreme cardio that focuses on burning a ton of calories and using only your own body weight as resistance.  When I say “extreme cardio”, I mean it.  Insanity is tough.  If this is your first time working out then Insanity is not for you.  You probably would not make it past the warm up. If you are looking to burn calories, slim down and tone up and you are already in pretty good shape then Insanity is for you.

P90X on the other hand focuses more on resistance training and building and toning muscle.  You do also get some great cardio as well.  P90X Plyometrics and P90X Core Synergistics will provide you with some great cardio and then there is also P90X Cardio X and P90X Yoga X to keep your work outs fresh. I feel that P90X will change the way your body looks more than Insanity will because you are working some many different muscles and you are doing more resistance training but this is my opinion.

So, which work out program do I like best?  Well, I like them both.  I now do a mix of P90X and Insanity together and add in a few One on One work outs as well.  Mixing it up keeps working out fun so that is what I try and do.

Basically I would sum it up like this. If you are in good shape and you like extreme cardio then buy Insanity.

If you want more resistance with some cardio then buy P90X. (And yes ladies, you will get awesome results with P90X)

P90X! What kind of results can I expect from P90X?  I often get this question from people who are looking to try the P90X exercise program and have probably seen some awesome results videos, pictures or the infomercial.  This is kind of a loaded question and the answer will vary from person to person. I do not want this to sound like a cop out but this is the truth.  If you are 80 pounds over weight or in the peak physical condition you are going to get different results.  If you are 80 pounds over weight you will most likely have to do modified moves and work your way up from there.  You might not be able to do 1 pull up or very many push ups but you will be doing them at the end of your 90 days.  If you are already in great shape you will still get some very noticeable results with this full body work out.  You will work every muscle group in your body and then some.

P90X is not a weight loss program per se but most users do lose weight and some more than others.  Where you end up after 90 days with P90X has a lot to do with where you start, how closely you follow the P90X nutrition plan and what kind of intensity your are bringing when you do you work out.  If you just go through the motions and don’t push yourself very hard then you will still get results just not the best results.  If you do not follow the eating plan, you will still get results just not the best results. Getting in great shape is not just something that you throw together in 90 days and then you are set for life.  Rather, P90X is something you do to hopefully make some changes for the rest of your life.

P90X has put me in the best shape of my life at 39 years old.  P90X is one of the best things that I have ever done for myself.  Have you ever committed to something for 90 days and stuck with it?  If not, then this is your chance for you to prove something to yourself and to the world.

Best of all, if for some reason you are not happy,  just send back your P90X for a refund.  Beachbody guarantees all of their work out DVD’s and nutritional supplements.

- Note: If you purchase a pirated P90X copy do not try and get a refund from Beachbody.

What are you waiting for?  Buy P90X now.

Bottom line is there is no cheap Shakeology substitute.  If you are looking for a quality meal replacement shake like no other then you have come to the right place. $119.85 for 30 servings is not a lot of money considering that you can replace a meal with this shake.  That’s about $4 bucks.  If you are a Beachbody coach then you can get that down to $89.95 or about $3 bucks a serving. Now I don’t know about you but $3 bucks for a high quality nutritious shake is a no brainer. (Considering I paid $17 for a shot of tequila last week makes this a real easy decision for me.) Give it a try, if you don’t like Shakeology then send it back for your money back.  Just like all Beachbody products, Shakeology has a money back guarantee.

Check out Shakeology for more info and to order.

Consider this, when you are purchasing something of high quality do you really want a cheap substitute? When you walk into the Mercedes dealership you want a Mercedes, not a cheap substitute. When you walk in to the jewelry store you want real gold, not a cheap substitute.  The same should go for the things you put into your body. Don’t settle for a cheap substitute. Buy Shakeology.

If you are just starting your work outs you could also do a Shakeology cleanse. This is a great way to kick off your new fitness program and get you off to a good start. I wasn’t trying to lose any weight and I still lost 6 pounds.

So now we know that if you want quality you will pay for it. Mercedes, diamonds, BMW, Shakeology. These are all quality products so expect to pay a little more for them.

You could always try and piece Shakeology together but it would cost you over $400 dollars a month.  Check out the picture below.
