“I Have The Abs I’ve Always Wanted!”

^†Results vary depending on starting point and effort.

Meet Brian M. He participated in The Beachbody Challenge and won the $500 Daily Prize for February 19th!

Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?
I have always felt okay with my appearance and activity level. However, before P90X3, I had allowed myself to get soft again and was feeling “loose in the cage.” I didn’t like what I saw in the mirror any longer and knew I had to take action. After getting great results with a round of P90X3, I did it a 2nd time! I then decided to move on to Focus T25 to tone up, expand on the hard work and results from P90X3, and get in the best shape of my life.

What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey?
Having completed other Beachbody programs (P90X, P90X2 and P90X3), I was well aware of how I could transform my body, and how great I could feel by dedicating myself to an intense program and pushing myself to the limits. I was excited by the prospect of accomplishing my goals with another program that was less than 30 minutes a day (though I often did doubles because I just love the results)!

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody® help you overcome that challenge?
Cardio has always been tough for me. I was afraid of the structure of Focus T25, since it’s cardio-centric with no breaks, but the modifiers help you get through the initial body shock, and before I knew it I was nailing each exercise.

What in particular did you like about the program you chose?
Focus T25 was 25 minutes a day. I could get it done in the morning before work and still go to the gym later in the day if I wanted or do a second T25 workout. It was such a compact and intense program that yielded immediate results, and it was fun.

Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of?
I am under 10% body fat, after completing the program, for the first time in my adult life. That is what I am most proud of. I know that I pushed myself as hard as I could. Now I feel even healthier, look leaner, and I have the abs I’ve always wanted!

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program?
I am in the best shape of my life and I am almost 37. I could not be happier with the results from my Beachbody programs, and plan to hit Insanity Max:30 as soon as it arrives!

How did a Beachbody Supplement or Nutritional Product or Program (such as Shakeology® or Beachbody Ultimate Reset®) support your transformation? What are the greatest benefits you gained? Did you see benefits to your energy, sleep, mood/mental clarity, digestion/regularity?
Shakeology is a gift. It tastes great and has so many options. I replaced a meal a day during P90X3, and 90 days later had lost over 10 lbs and 8% body fat complimenting my workout regimen with Shakeology. I will be reincorporating Shakeology with Insanity Max:30. Also, the P90X Results and Recovery drink is a must have for after those intense workouts. It tastes amazing and rejuvenates the body post workout.
