Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?*
This is my transformation from the beginning of my fitness journey up to now, which includes completing Focus T25 and lastly P90X3. Before starting the T25 program, I was working a lot of overtime at my job so I didn’t make time to take care of my body. I was very sluggish and lacked energy. I was always tired when I got home from work and was way out of shape. After completing T25, I was ready to take on a new challenge that would push me beyond my limits.
What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey?*
I was inspired to change my life after looking at myself in the mirror and seeing how much I let myself get out of shape. I was embarrassed at how my body looked and when I had my shirt off in front of my wife. My son would also make comments about my belly being big, which made me sad and ashamed. This drove me to begin the T25 program. The results that my awesome coach achieved and my own self-motivation inspired me to jump into P90X3!
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 before starting the T25 program was the time constraint to workout. I overcame that challenge by choosing to do the Focus T25 program because it only required a 25 minute time commitment and getting it done in the morning was my strategy. My biggest challenge before starting the P90X3 program was that I dreaded doing pull-ups. The way I overcame that fear was to focus on my fitness goals of gaining muscle definition instead of the pain. The motivation from my coach, John also helped me push thru this mental obstacle.
What in particular did you like about the program you chose?*
There were several things that I really liked about the Focus T25 and P90X3 programs. The minimal time commitment of 25-30 minutes each day and the full body workouts were great aspects of both programs. Shaun T and Tony Horton are also excellent fitness instructors and motivators! T25 helped me lose the weight and P90X3 helped me get super ripped!
Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of?*
The results I achieved were a total weight loss of 45 pounds, % body fat down to 8.5%, and a reduction of 8.5 inches in my waist! My strength, balance, flexibility and energy level have all increased! My back, abs, biceps, triceps, quads and chest muscles have much greater definition also!
How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program?*
My life has continued to improve since completing the Focus T25 and P90X3 programs. I’m in the best shape of my life, and I’m helping multiple people reach their fitness goals as an Emerald Coach! Fitness has become a lifestyle for me, and I’m sharing the love!
How did Shakeology® or Beachbody Ultimate Reset® support your transformation?
Shakeology helped me gain the nutrients my body needed and with few calories. I noticed that the weight fell off quicker after using Shakeology. It also helped to regulate my digestive system, because before using Shakeology I used to have bouts of IBS. Since using Shakeology, I haven’t experienced those same issues, which is so liberating.
Did you achieve any other measureable improvements with a Beachbody Supplement or Nutritional Product or Program? (e.g. Blood Pressure, Blood Sugar, triglycerides, etc…)
After getting a physical conducted by my doctor he was amazed with how good my numbers looked and noticed that I was in great physical shape which he said contributed greatly to my tests coming back with excellent results in all categories!
