Just a little while ago, I had a revelation that I needed to be receptive to receiving and acting on. That epiphany was that it is stupid to be a Team Beachbody Coach and at almost 62 to still think in my head that I am a runner. […]
Alli hit rock bottom in 2010. She was broke, confused and on the verge of homelessness. “Between my student loans, credit card bills and my car, I was $100,000 in debt,†says Alli. On top of her personal debt, Alli’s family was in financial ruins (her Dad was a custom […]

The “Personal Development” Message of the Month is LEADERSHIP. In a recent National Coach Call, I talked about how leadership is in the doing. Leaders don’t quit (unless they want to lead people to quit). They teach perseverance by persevering. People have told me I am a good leader, but, […]

If I had known that I was going to fail so many times in my life, I would have kept track. Maybe I could be setting some record. The P90X test version was first marketed in 2005 and bombed. Even people at Beachbody said that the project should be abandoned. […]

Sean sure did with P90X… Heather sure did with Insanity… These people sure did by entering The Beachbody Challenge… Do people really get results from using Beachbody workout DVD’s? A video is worth a 1,000 words. You be the judge…
