“I Feel More Confident and Better at My Job”

^†Results vary depending on starting point and effort.

Meet Kyle C.! He participated in The Beachbody Challenge and won the $500 Daily Prize for August 26th!

Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?
I felt unmotivated. I went to the gym all the time and felt like I wasn’t getting the results I’ve always wanted. I would loose 5 or 10 lbs. but gain it right back like it was nothing. I’d blame it on water weight, but it was depressing to actually realize that I was out of shape. I always had the mindset that I was in decent shape until one day I took a hard look at myself. I’m a firefighter in the military. We train and run calls, and I felt my lack of fitness was keeping me from giving 100% to my career.

What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey?
My daughter was born a few months prior to starting the program. I knew if I was going to keep eating junk food and living an unhealthy lifestyle, I’d most likely have health problems by the time she was older.  Another big inspiration was my wife. I wanted to look good for her! And, of course, be the man I want to be. You can’t love others until you learn to love yourself.

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody® help you overcome that challenge?
My biggest challenge was keeping the weight off of my mid section. Portion control and managing my micro-nutrients was a challenge before. P90x helped me adapt to eating healthy in the right portions. Once I got that down, the pounds melted right off.

Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of?
I’m proud of loosing 20 lbs. I had no idea I was that overweight.

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program?
Fitness is a big priority in my life, and Beachbody gave me the perfect tools to help me achieve my goals. I feel more confident and better at my job. Just being happy with myself and accomplishing a goal has changed my life forever. No obstacle is too big to overcome with the right mindset.
