Be apart of what has changed my life - Beachbody Fitness
With this economy being the way it is I really feel I have to get the word out on this ASAP! I am sooo passionate about fitness as many of you already know. I started my journey last October, lost 50lbs on Power 90 and got ripped on P90X. In my journey I have met some of the most positive and successful people there is to meat. I have more energy, more confidence than I ever have and it shows. My friends tell me all the time. I try things I used to hesitate about. Now it's a no brainer. I run for charities, I feel calmer than any time before. I owe this to pushing play. I never realized how that one simple action would change me so much. It has changed how I treat my friends and family, and I don't meet strangers anymore, I meet people. I give more than before, I think of others before I think of myself more. I owe all of this from pushing play a year ago. Will I ever stop? NO! Why? Because the passion I have for this journey is to overpowering. How can I lose doing something I know works and feel this passionate about. I have never been so certain about something ever.

Day 33 Report - P90x Insanity Weight Lifting Hybrid Program
I did a 1 day Shakeology Cleanse today. I did it because I am having my 30 day tranformation pics shot by Carl Wagner of Race Trout Photography and I wanted to reduce lower abdominal bloat. It follows the same guidelines as a 3 Day Shakeology Cleanse, but it's just for one day. I also did my weight workout while doing it. You're really suppose to limit physical activity but I wanted to put it to the test. I kept it to 3 sets instead of my usual 5 sets each exercise. I also wanted to see if it would really lower bloat and not destroy muscle.
Measurements:
What I noticed what that I had very little energy that evening and went to bed very early. My calories were basically cut in half. I think without the workout my energy levels would have been fine. I also noticed that my lower stomach was much flatter. I took body measurements the next morning. I lost 1 pound, and noticed my abdomen, hips measurements were down. My chest, shoulder, and neck were up. I contribute this to the workout the day before. I actually lost about .25lbs of muscle if I calculated correctly. This must have come from my lower half. I also think I would not have lost that much had I not exercised.
CONCLUSION:
The 1 Day cleanse did exactly what I wanted it to. Reduce my lower abdomen for the photo shoot. Would I do it again? Yes, but I would not workout on it. I wouldn't change anything else. I ate way more than what is typically subscribed for the cleanse in the 3 day version.

Motivation: One Thing Won't Stop You
One Thing Won't Stop You
I’m right in the middle of my P90x/Insanity hybrid program and adding muscle like crazy and feeling on top of the world when all of a sudden an old chest injury from my Power 90 days decided to pay me a visit. Now I may be sidelined from weight lifting and healing could take a whole month. I was starting to get furious. Then I remember what I preach about synergistic fitness. It’s the sum of all parts. Not one single thing will determine my outcome. It’s a collective effort. It’s following proper nutrition, working other body parts, doing other routines. It’s the support I get from those that are on this fitness journey with me. I will examine my injury. I will heal my injury so that it’s stronger than ever I will get right back where I left off with the weights and continue my journey and reach my goal!Now. Stop and reflect. Don’t let ONE thing stop you from your goal. Change. Change with it. I have researched my injury a lot more than before and am applying the proper healing techniques. I am starting to feel much better after only a few days. Did I give up? No, I examined, changed and kept moving forward. NO excuses. I look to the other aspects of my fitness journey to carry me through to my goal. This applies to all aspects of your synergistic fitness journey. If you are unable to PUSH PLAY, then you have to focus on the other aspects and strengthen them to get you to your goal. When I was injured doing Power 90 and couldn’t PUSH PLAY, I examined my nutrition, adjusted it and really focused on that until I could get back to it. Guess what? I lost most of my weight during that time! Why? Because I looked for other ways to reach my goal. I lost 50lbs on Power 90 because I kept at it any way I could.
Don’t let one thing distract you from your goal. Don’t let things like, “I just don’t have time”, “I missed a workout” keep you from the goal. You have time to change. You have time to synergize your fitness. You don’t need a every supplement in the world to get started, or every fitness cd to get it going. Don’t wait. Start TODAY! Look to other aspects. Eat one less thing for lunch. Have one less bite at dinner. Cut out one fat. Throw two or three protein bars in your purse. Every small step over time will add up. Write down what you think is blocking you from starting or synergizing your fitness journey. Then write down how to unblock it. I bet you can find ways to start or enhance your journey no matter how small they are. Add one more thing each day or week. Over time you will have reached your goal. Nothing can put you on the sideline because you own the field! GO! GO! GO!
A few of my synergistic friends from the Beachbody forums and that I coach have started a support thread. This group of guys/gals have been shredding fat for months and have helped motivate me and themselves to new heights with SYNERGISTIC FITNESS. We would like to welcome any of you to join us for support, advice, daily accountability or just shoot the breeze. You can find the forum here: http://bit.ly/duRx8S
GET SAMPLES OF SHAKEOLOGY: I am also offering to send two sample packs to any of my paying customers. If you have purchased product from me, shoot me an email and I will send you a green berry and chocolate to try.
WHO IS TEAM SIXPACK: Team Six Pack is made up of you. You and people striving for the same thing. This is SYNERGISTIC fitness. Putting all the little pieces together to sky rocket our fitness experience to the next level. Sum of the whole. I will be placing a TEAM SIXPACK support thread on the forums in a few days where we can meet and discuss our journeys. Help support each other and many others that may need our help. I'll post the link in the next weekly coaches email.
