Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?
I always worked out, and have been very active but didn’t get the lean results I wanted. I’m an old school weight lifter using fighter style cardio. I was skeptical that any program could surpass my workouts. But I was struggling to get to where I wanted to be. So, I gave Body Beast and Shakeology a try.

What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey?
At 44 years old with a house full of boys, I want to be vital and energetic. We are an active family! Our weekends are full of sports, fishing, kayaking and fun. I also teach women’s and children’s self defense classes as well as MMA training. I want to project a healthy image for my business.

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody® help you overcome that challenge?
An injury to my back resulted in a protruding disc. PiYo came along at the right time in my recovery. I am more flexible now than I have ever been in my life. I was soon able to start Body Beast. I am also very challenged to find “time” for anything extra. Making a commitment to recover my health and energy has been a great turning point for me. I love the way I feel since starting Shakeology and experienced no plateaus during my 90 day weight loss journey.

What in particular did you like about the program you chose?
I like the intensity of the weight workout and discovering new ways to lift. I have a new degree of muscle definition in areas that I had not experienced before.

Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of?
I achieved 35 pounds in weight loss. I am leaner with more definition than I’ve ever been in my life, and I’ve always been an athlete. I was able to enjoy the different workouts and stay focused on my goal.

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program?
I am more focused on my health and more excited than ever to get shredded. I am also proud to be a Beachbody Coach and a living product of the program.
