Are We Insane?

Yes. Obviously.

Cody and I decided...okay...I decided that we were going to do Insanity approximately one month ago. Let me tell you, the title of this little fitness program is 100% fitting. It is fast, challenging, sweat inducing, muscle burning and has been known to cause occasional swearing. We love it.

I am so glad that Cody's doing it with me. What a guy I landed! Having a partner is the very best; we hold each other accountable to doing it every day and to eating pretty darn healthy. Full disclosure, I actually have TWO partners doing Insanity with me. My lovely friend, Jen Rook, is my long distance partner. Having a tele-partner is just as helpful, I swear!

We are now in our 5th week which is the "Recovery Week". We go into the second phase next week and I am JACKED! It is going to be more difficult but we are R-E-A-D-Y. The results so far are fantastic for us. The scale is not the way I choose to measure success, so I am trying not to weigh. However, my clothes are looser and my arms are toned. I know they are because I flex or look at them in the mirror multiple times per day. Yep, I do. I'm not afraid to admit it. (Cody and Jen do, too. I know they do.)


Maybe I'll post before and after pictures in 30+ days when we've finished....maybe I won't. Stay tuned to find out!

Beachbody Coaching-Why?

It was around 4:00 am in 2006. I was in my downtown SLC apartment (not sleeping) when I saw the "Turbo Jam" infomercial. The little blonde lady (Chalene Johnson) on my screen captured my attention instantly. She was bubbly and fun and SO enthusiastic about her kickboxing workout. Needless to say I ordered the program. This was my intro to Beachbody- the company behind Turbo Jam, P90X, Insanity, Brazil Butt Lift, etc.
 

Not too long after I got into Turbo Jam I was talking to a dear friend, Betsy, and discovered she also LOVED Turbo Jam. She was the first person I knew that had become a Beachbody Coach. I started looking into it and was excited about what I found. I started "friending" other coaches on Facebook, and started asking them questions about it. Everything I heard and read was ultra positive. What a fabulous community of health and fitness minded people. I decided I needed to become a part of this world. I had since become friends on FB with Jenelle Summers (Chalene's sister who stars in her videos) and she posted about a challenge one of her coaches was hosting. I friended that coach, Kami, and started asking her my questions: Why did you become a coach? How does it work? How much does it cost? Etc., etc., etc.....(I always have lots of questions!) I liked what she said and how responsive she was so I signed up to be a coach under her. What a good decision THAT was! I've been a coach for about a year and a half and want to share with you the TOP 3 best things about being a Beachbody Coach:

1. MOTIVATION! Since I'm a Beachbody Coach, I refuse to slack. People are looking to me to set a good example and that drives me. Big time. 
2. The products WORK! Before I got pregnant, I had lost 12 lbs and 2 pant sizes with Turbo Fire and Shakeology. Post pregnancy, I'm down 42 lbs and 18 inches overall. I'm not to my goal yet but I know with Shakeology and the Turbo Fire/ChaLean Extreme hybrid I'm doing, I WILL get there. 
3. SHAKEOLOGY! This product is ridiculous. It contains 70+ of the healthiest super foods from around the world. It is filled with protein, prebiotics, probiotics, and antioxidants. It's low in calories (140) , very filling and it tastes amazing. As a coach you get 25% off of all Beachbody products and that was a no brainer for me since I knew I would be using ShakeO for the forseeable future.
