If you've been feeling tired, run down, or just plain lousy lately . . . if you're having trouble with your digestion or difficulty losing weight . . . if your body just isn't working the way you want it to . . . the solution may be simpler than you think. The solution may be an Ultimate Reset™ .
In just three weeks, the Beachbody Ultimate Reset will restore your body to its original "factory settings," so you'll have more energy and greater focus, experience better digestion and a more positive mood, you'll notice that your body is functioning more efficiently, helping you lose weight and improve your overall health.

The Beachbody Ultimate Reset
is NOT a typical cleanse

Becoming Diamond






As a coach we have options to get promoted. We have special ranks- 1st is what we call Emerald. 2nd is what we call Diamond. 3rd is Star Diamond and you can earn MANY stars, which leads to higher bonuses and income :)


I just started coaching April 1, 2011 and I never thought I'd reach the rank of qualifying as a 1-star Diamond in under 4 months. It was a milestone enough for me to reach diamond in 90 days! But star diamond? WOW!


It takes an amazing team to help you reach this level. To my right you see a girl in the Insanity fan page picture. That is my rockstar, Ashton.


You see Ashton quit on me EVERY other day when she started as a coach. Every other day I'd wake up to a message from her telling me about how she is going to quit. I'd have to tell her to keep pressing on. Literally I'd go about my day trying to figure why this girl kept quitting. I mean do we quit with our fitness? Why do people give up so easy? It takes a LOT of failures to reach success. It takes a strong person to do that as well.


Ashton, is now a diamond coach. In under 90 days she too made that rank, helping me to reach the qualifying Star-Diamond rank!


I want to encourage each of you on whatever journey in life you are on, to keep pressing on. Whether it's fitness, nutrition, a relationship, family, a job- keep pressing on. It's all mental- you can do it- you have to tell yourself 24/7 that YOU CAN DO ANYTHING. I mean that.


I'll say it again- YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU PUT YOUR MIND TO!


I still cannot tell you how amazing it is to be where I'm at as a coach. I took 8 months to decide to do this business- 8 months!!! Do you know where I'd be had I started 8 months ago? EEK!


If you want to help other get healthy and fit, and get paid for doing it- message me to join my rockin' team!


I'm here to mentor and grow diamonds :) After all they are a girls best friend <3

Fit Club Begins

Today marked my 1st Fit Club! I partnered up with 2 other coaches here locally in Chicago to put together a Fit Club. I supplied the gym, they supplied the Shakeology, projector, tables, and tons of tools to make this day happen!

We chose to do TurboFire- Fire 30! I just LOVE TurboFire! I had a lot of fun! We mixed up lots of Shakeology and Results and Recovery formula to sample for our guests.

We call ourselves Team Chicago- Trendsetters Fit Club! I look forward to our Fit Club growing!

I even tried Greenberry Shakeology today and it was yummy!








Gotta love working up a sweat in such a short period of time! I am SO sore right now!





We had great stories from the coaches in todays Fit Club.


I am looking forward to seeing this grow!

Being a Beachbody Coach

Wow. It's been sometime since I last blogged! Summer is busy!!!





I wanted to talk about being a coach today. If you are in the thinking process of becoming a coach then this is for YOU!





There is such an amazing accomplishment in being a Beachbody coach. Money is truly icing on the cake. As a coach you are motivating and supporting others on their journey and this does not mean you have to be in great shape! I am still on my own journey. I personally see it as a lifestyle, a continuing journey to a healthy life. So if not being 'ready' to coach is because you have not reached your goal weight or measurement yet- then let that go! It'll be amazing to have people to mentor and support while continuing on your own journey. It keeps you accountable as well as your clients.





Everyone is skeptical about this business. I was SO skeptical. I thought, researched, and sat still on it for 8 solid months. I have done some businesses like this before and all have failed, so believe me when I say I was SO skeptical. What is the catch? How does this work? Is this a waste? how much money will I lose?





But I continued to think about how all I really wanted to do was help motivate others on their fitness journey. I thought about personal training certifications too. The cost for me to go to classes was a bit outrageous for me at the time, so becoming a coach was my beginning start.





I am super passionate about helping others reach their fitness goals. People deserve to live a healthy life and if they want it, I am here to help them.





I have told everyone since day 1- I am here to help, support, and motivate you all free! If you choose to purchase any Beachbody products,then I ask you do it through me so I get the credit. (insert making $$$)



It's not easy. No one said success was easy. If success was easy we'd all be there right now. Just like weight loss and fitness. If it was easy, we would not have an obesity problem in the USA. It takes work. It takes some time and patience. But if you work smart- it wont take much of your time. The payoff will come and you wont believe your eyes.





I can tell you now that I do not believe my eyes!!! I am about to go on a free vacation all paid for by Beachbody to a 5+star hotel in the Bahamas!!! How awesome is that?!





I am getting ready to be certified to teach TurboKick and Hip Hop Hustle to my local clients. Do you know how much FUN that is?! Nothing like getting a good sweat while dancing and listening to awesome music.





I have met some amazing people on this journey, some I see to be best friends for life. I can probably name a person in every state that I know. Every single time my husband and I go on a trip to a state I will likely tell him "I want to go see my friend X"





I've already met a couple and will be meeting even more in the next couple months and am so excited for the relationships growing from this.





This has brought me extra income, allowing me to stay home (future stay at home mom here!!) while helping others with their health!





I am not a professional. I am not a nutritionist. I am not a personal trainer..(YET!) You do not need to be ANY of these to become a coach. This is starting your own business and growing it however big you'd like to grow it. I am soooo excited to see what the future holds as a coach.





I love what Beachbody stands for and how much it has done for people. I love the programs and especially love Shakeology. I love to see people happy and growing in their health. I want to fight cancer and heart disease and any other diseases that come with obesity. I want to be able to say 'I did everything I could to prevent this.'





There are fees that come with owning your own business. $25 to get your business starter kit and $15 website maintenance and marketing tool fee per month. THAT is IT! When you start making some money that is NOTHING!!!! Ever own your own business before? You know what money goes into it right?





Right now if you are acitve military or your spouse- you can sign up as a coach FREE! This means no sign up fee and no website fees!!! How awesome is that?!?!? Starting up your own Beachbody business free!





I can't even describe how fun and amazing this journey has been and I have only been in it since April! The friends, the fun, the money, and of course the free vacation :)

If you have ever thought about this opportunity- give it a shot! Shoot me a message and we will get you going! If it isn't for you within 30 days you get your starter kit fee back!

In the meantime- Happy Sweating!

Shakeology Ice Cream



RECIPE:


1 Scoop Chocolate Shakeology

1/2 scoop BSN Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Powder

LOTS of ice and some water


Mix into blender and top with your favorite nuts and/or berries!



I got the Shakeology Ice Cream idea and a similar recipe from another Beachbody Coach.

That recipe was with actual natural peanut butter & a protein powder. I decided to use my Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Powder instead of the regular stuff! It tastes great!


This is a great idea for when you want ice cream. You can whip it up in about 5 minutes and get a sweet cool treat!


Give it a try! You wont be sorry!

Insanity Check In & Fit Club Action

Today marked day 32 of the first round of Insanity for me.

I had to do Max Cardio Conditioning & Cardio Abs.

Boy was it painful!

As you know I am standing up in a wedding next weekend and I have been working hard to look good for it. The dress is not so flattering on me and I would like to look decent.


***Photo above is me with Rocco & April- 2 local Beachbody coaches on my team!


I've been training 2 hours a day 3 days a week and 1 hour a day 3 days a week, resting 1 day a week. I've also replaced a meal with Shakeology & have kept my cheat meals to a minimum of 1 a week.

I switched up Insanity a bit and moved from week 3 down to week 6. I am on week 7 going into week 8 and saving recovery week for right after the wedding. I recreated the program. We will see how my results turn out! I am extremely conditioned as it is from my everyday training so I felt comfortable jumping ahead.

This morning I went to a local Fit Club Launch and did TurboFire for the first time. We did HIIT 25 and Core 25. It was so much fun! The sweat started pouring down, but I was having a great time doing it.

I met 2 fellow coach teammates at the Fit Club.

So in total I did 3 workouts today and my body is ready to rest! Thank God for rest day tomorrow!

I've noticed a HUGE change in my body, it's shrinking even more! I see more definition in my abs and arms. I think I just might pull off wearing this dress next week!

I'm looking forward to going back to Fit Club & starting TurboFire in the future.

Happy Sweating!!

Insanity ~ Weight Training Check In


Today is day 25 completed of Insanity. Almost half way there!

I not only did Insanity the past two days, but also weight trained.

Pretty sure I got in 4 solid workouts in just over 24hours. CRAZY!

Yesterday was Max Interval Circuit and today was Max Interval Plyo. Remember that I recreated the Insanity schedule. I jumped down to week 6 to the end. I will do recovery week the week after Father's Day.

I am focused on a wedding I am standing up in on the 18th. I'm trying hard to look good for it. Here is to hoping it works out well.

I am a sore lady, but feel great! Shakeology finally came in too- which helped me out!

I think I will back it up to week 3 and finish that up starting tomorrow. It will be Pure Cardio & Cardio Abs- going to switch it up to make up for a missed session a couple weeks back. Then Friday I will do a recovery day since I will be weight training as well and likely be a dead sore bird. Saturday will be either Cardio Power & Resistance or Plyometric Cardio Circuit. We will see how I am doing then. That will complete week 4!

For now I am SO tired and need the sleep bad! My body needs to repair itself!

Happy Sweating!!

Lyndsi



I think Friday I will do
