Inspirational Quotes – What Motivates You?

I really wanted to focus on creating some inspiration today and decided one beautiful way to do that was to share a quote that absolutely, completely, and fully motivates me every single day to push beyond my normal boundaries.

I also wanted to create something that would allow you to Share Your most Inspirational Quote, something that you can’t live without, something that drives you to do things beyond the norm, and something that replenishes your soul whenever you feel down.

With that said this post was born.

I will share the single most important quote in my life, this has stuck with me for years upon years, and the funny thing is it came from the wall of the worst corporate job I have ever had!

It goes as follows:

“Complacency is Devastating” – Wall of MBNA (Bank of America)

For me this means so darn much! My take is that “complacency” or being “comfortable” in a particular situation is absolutely without a doubt “devastating” to your life.

Why? Quite simply this. Being comfortable and never pushing yourself to reach new goals, break personal limits, or go beyond your “comfort zone” to grow as a being is really the most destructive thing in life. Because without constantly challenging the norm and going beyond where you feel comfortable we would never grow, expand, and everything would become stagnant.

It is because I constantly seek better fitness and health that I Push Play as often as I can. It is also this saying that drives me to eat healthy. Finally, without going beyond “myself” and pushing the norm I would never have made a single video that has allowed me to touch and connect with so many incredible people such as yourself.

Do you see how powerful this one quote is?

What drives you? I know everyone has at least one quote they can’t live without.

I invite you to share yours in the comments below…

10-minute-trainer

I know lot’s of folks have heard of P90X but for some they may find that they are not ready for the extreme fitness level or even the time required.

Sound like the case for you? That’s perfectly ok, I want to introduce you to Tony Horton’s 10 Minute Trainer.

Beachbody and Tony Horton developed the 10 Minute Trainer for those looking to get in shape but with less than the desirable time to spend at the gym or at home working out. 10 Minute Trainer is exactly as it sounds, you get all of your fitness in 10 minutes including cardio, resistance,  and stretch training.

10 Minute Trainer is focused on “super-stacking” which basically combines cardio and resistance into a 10 minute routine without focusing on each individually. This allows a dramatic decrease in required time and is perfect for those on the go or even for those just not ready for the intensity of something like P90X.

What matters is that you do something! 10 Minutes does not sound like much but when you combine effective cardio and resistance training into the 10 most important minutes of the day you are bound to get results.

10 Minute Trainer combines Fat-Burning Cardio, total-body toning and sculpting, and abs workouts in one 10 minute routine.

If you are currently using 10 Minute Trainer I would love to hear what you think about it – I invite you to leave your “review” in the comments below.

Shaun T Insanity – I just ordered mine!

That’s right, as of today July 16th 2009 I have placed my order for Shaun T Insanity!

I am so excited to get started I even opted for the 2-day shipping. It may cost another 8 bucks but man is it worth it. So I am thinking I should have my copy of Shaun T Insanity by Monday or Tuesday next week.

I am very interested in getting a group of others together who are ready to get into extreme shape, this program does not mess around and is not for those who can’t take P90X.

If you have been considering it but have not made the leap to order – do it now! I was dragging too but seriously, it’s only $120 bucks (~$108 if your a Club member with 10% off or only $90 if your a coach with 25% off)!

But either way make sure to check my Youtube channel for my progress through the program as I expect some incredible results. I have already tried one workout and saw 3 others from my good friend Coach Charles. This is going to be some serious work!

To get your copy of Insanity you can just go here and place your order right now!
(If I’m not already then you will get me as your coach also…. Bonus!!! hehe)

Price: $164.70

Shakeology – What I Have Been Missing!

Wow – Shakeology!

So It’s kind of funny, when Shakeology was first released I knew it was something special but I wanted to give it the test of time to see what others had to say. You know what? I have heard nothing but good things about Shakeology.

With that said I have made the decision that I will be starting a regimen of my own including Shakeology in my diet.

If you have not heard about this supplement you must know that Shakeology is not a multi-vitamin but an actual Meal Replacement. After really looking into it though I noticed it’s for anyone and everyone.

Whether you want to lose weight, maintain, or even get extra calories and nutrition to gain weight it will work.

This is what I figure, since Shakeology is a meal replacement I will still continue to take my P90X Peak Health Formula Multi Vitamins for the added nutrition.

You see what I plan to do is add Shakeology into my 5 meals a day by using it as a snack.

My diet should look something like this:

  • Breakfast 7am
  • Fitness
  • Snack (Shakeology) 10-11am
  • Lunch 12-1pm
  • Snack (Power bar or equivalent snack) 3-4pm
  • Dinner 6-7pm

Maaaaaybe a small (Very Small) snack around 8-9pm and hopefully be in bed by 10-11pm.

At least that’s what I am shooting for. Now of course if you were someone that wants to lose weight you could actually replace “Breakfast”, “Lunch”, or “Dinner” with Shakeology and then just eat other smaller snacks through the day, that way you can get in your calorie deficit to lose weight!

I actually am so excited to try Shakeology that I created it’s very own page here on my website.

You can either click the tab Above or Click on the name to learn more about Shakeology

What is a Beachbody Coach

Imagine signing up at your local gym today and then tomorrow you get a call from your free assigned coach asking you to come workout with him/her. Better yet, you get calls and emails continuously from your Coach which in turn helps you stay accountable and on track.

If you have ever researched anything about Beachbody you have probably seen a reference or two towards a “Beachbody Coach”.

This article will help you discover the answers and guide you towards a better understanding of what a Coach is and How you can Utilize your own coach.

The following questions will be answered:

  • What is a Beachbody Coach?
  • How do you get your own Coach?
  • What does a Coach do for you?

Let’s get started!

“What is a Beachbody Coach?”

Instead of giving you the definition why don’t I tell you a quick story as to the origin and why Beachbody coaches exist.

You see for those that don’t know, Beachbody is the home of a library of home fitness workout programs. Titles may include (P90X, P90X+, Chalean Extreme, Shaun T Insanity, etc.)

There is basically a program for Everyone. Well if you’re like me you have seen the infamous infomercials with the most widely broadcast being the P90X workout system.

In 2007 Beachbody realized that they had done Very well in marketing their programs to the people but yet how do they make sure the programs are being used?

That is when the first Beachbody Coach came into existence.

You see a Coach is someone who uses the programs and supplements that Beachbody produces and then in turn the Coach has their own list of customers that they in turn help to motivate, inspire, and educate.

A Beachbody Coach is anyone and everyone that wants to take on the responsibility of caring for others. Their specific job and roll is to push Beachbody customers to use their purchased programs beyond the infomercial.

The next question that you may have is:

“How do you get your own Beachbody Coach?”

It’s very simple actually. You will be assigned your own personal Coach whenever you purchase ANYTHING through Beachbody. Whether you called on the infomercial and ordered the P90X workout system, whether you ordered Slim in 6 from the Beachbody Website, or even when you purchase from an existing Coaches store.

With the new website updates for Beachbody whenever you create your account and get yourself setup in WOWY (Work Out With You) your very first buddy will automatically be your coach. So contact them and use them because they are Your Coach!

I think we covered this slightly but once again lets take a look at this question:

“What does a Beachbody Coach do for you?”

It’s very simple, a Coach will stay in contact with you throughout your health and fitness journey with Beachbody.
There are a number of ways a Beachbody Coach may contact you:

  • Through Email
  • Phone Contact
  • The Beachbody Message Boards
  • Some Coaches have Youtube Accounts
  • Other Coaches have Blogs

Keep in mind that a Coach is a person just like you, they are using the same programs, the same supplements, and they have a life too. They took on the additional accountability and responsibility of coaching you because they feel strongly that Health and Fitness is a very large part of life. They are passionate and selfless.

So now you know what a Beachbody Coach is, who they are, and what they do for you.

I encourage you to contact and use your Coach as guidance in your Health and Fitness from this day forward. OR if you don’t have a Beachbody Coach now you know how to get one of your own!

Alone we Try – Together we Succeed!
