By Steve Edwards – from the Team Beachbody Newsletter Depending on how you interpret statistics, coffee is the most consumed beverage in the world. Together with its brethren, tea, only soda measures up in a popularity contest. Because they all contain caffeine, they’re often lumped together in one group, which […]
How did Sarah gain the weight? “I couldn’t control my eating. I used it as an emotional crutch. I was relieving my stress through my enjoyment of food, regardless of the consequences and emotional pain it caused. In addition, I hated exercise. I did not want to put forth that […]
By Elena Sessa and Rebecca – from the Team Beachbody Newsletter One of the biggest benefits of the Beachbody ® programs is they allow you to ditch your gym membership and, with it, its monthly fees, gross showers, and the time it takes to travel there. That said, shoving your […]
On Tuesday, I was listening to a Chris Widener interview with Brian Tracy and at some point he was talking about distractions. That set off a chain of thought that has been part of my thinking all week. I grew up on a farm in rural Central New Jersey and […]
My blessings have hatched over the last five years. I never counted them before they hatched because I didn’t know what they were going to be. I had taken a step of faith, rather a leap of faith, into a big unknown for me and it has become the source […]

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…
Five years ago, I began a journey with no destination. It was an adventure of sorts that became a business venture. Yet at no time in the last five years did I feel like I was “working” and, in fact, I derived a lot of happiness and success from […]

Whether it was a seed that was meant to be planted or just something that has stuck with me over the years, I don’t know for sure. But when I was a sophomore in college, I took an aptitude test and the results showed that I should be either […]

Instead of just working on your body and building your body, you could be building your dreams and building the dreams of others at the same time. Are you just going to the gym or working out at home and solely thinking about your issues? Well what about the same […]
Oh, Those Aching muscles! If you’re feeling a little bit stiff and sore after your first few days of working out again, don’t despair. It’s totally natural. If you haven’t exercised in a while, then the several dozen squats, kicks, push-ups, or gingas that you did over the past day […]

Teachers, coaches and mentors need to do what? Make people aware of the benefits of what they are being taught, coached or mentored in. Without a clear benefit or benefits, few people will respond to your call to action. I searched on my website, Howtobefit.com, and found 452 articles with […]
Yesterday was our day of Thanksgiving and we have so much to be thankful for. Our bounty is enormous compared to that of most people in the world today. So much so, that it has changed the way that we look and live. When the original colony of Plymouth was […]

I was thinking when I was running this morning that form is everything when you want to be efficient, conserve energy and lessen your chance of injury. I’ve heard that poor swimmers, for example burn way more calories than good swimmers. Makes sense, right? Running with good […]
Team Beachbody is filled with highly motivated, truly extraordinary people. I got to meet some more of them at a Super Sunday event here in New Mexico. One of the greatest rewards of being a coach has been to meet and become lifelong friends with so many of these coaches. […]
This Saturday and Sunday, Team Beachbody ® will take a stand for humanity and come together with a common mission: to End the Trend ® of obesity and help more people than ever lead healthy, fulfilling lives. If you heard Carl on this week’s National Coach Call, you have an […]
I’ve been on a roll and posting some things on Facebook that weren’t exactly politically correct. Here are just a few: Scott posted about food regulation and I personally think that people are just plain stupid to eat the way that they do. “I don’t eat any junk food, […]
Which antidepressant is right for you – pills or a healthy lifestyle that includes regular exercise? More than one in 10 Americans over the age of 12 takes an antidepressant, a class of drugs that has become wildly popular in the past several decades, U.S. government researchers said today. Antidepressants […]
I had today’s newsletter all done in my head and I just had to put it on “paper” and send it out. Then I read something by one of my fellow Team Beachbody Coaches, Julie Ann Price, and I knew that I had to share it with you today. As […]
I am a voracious reader when it comes to faith, family and fitness and Thursday I read an article in the New York Times that I find disturbing. It is entitled, “China’s Next Revolution Is in Fitness” which on the surface doesn’t seem that interesting or significant but this line […]
Do you know why you do what you do – your “why” that everyone says that you have to have to be successful? Do you know why things have happened in your life that have changed the course of your life and you didn’t understand until some time later? My […]
A little story about crabs in a basket posted by Patty Sweeney Corrigan on Facebook If you place a sole crab in a stock pot and heat it, it will readily attempt to climb out, it will escape, and potentially achieve freedom! However, if you place two or three crabs […]
Is Team Beachbody A Scam? This is a great question. The world is so saturated with weight loss products, programs and advice. Deep down you know much of it is total garbage but how can you sort the good stuff out from the scams? Legit Vs. Scam […]
This morning, I read this headline, “Obesity to Worsen, Weigh Heavily on Healthcare Costs“. The article went on to say that “If present trends continue, about half of both men and women in the United States will be obese by 2030, health experts warned”. What is most tragic about this […]
There’s that word mission again. I recently used it in another blog post and stated how I can’t say, “mission accomplished”. This time, though, it is so appropriate because the Team Beachbody community is on a mission to end the trend of obesity and the epidemic of diabetes. […]
I am about to go on a rampage of outrage because of the state of this country right now and we are all in some way responsible. If you don’t think that the fate of this country is in our hands, then think again. Here are some statistics that speak […]
According to Wikipedia, “Happy Hour is a marketing term for a period of time in which a restaurant or bar offers discounts on alcoholic drinks, such as beer, wine, and cocktails. Typically, it is in the late afternoon Monday through Thursday, usually taking place at some period between 4 PM […]
don’t know how many of you listen to KLOVE. For me, it is an essential part of my spiritual diet and I listen to it at home, in the car and on their app. Their slogan is Positive, Encouraging K LOVE and their message is positive every day and it […]
Over the course of the last day and a half, I have read and seen so much about how Osama Bin Laden was relentlessly pursued until he was eventually found and justice was served. It took almost 10 years and obviously there were many setbacks and disappointments, but the ultimate […]

P90X is not a weight loss program, yet most people lose weight by doing it. This is because most of those people begin the program with more body fat than they’re happy with, and getting ripped means they’ve lost body fat and weight. But some people want more. They want […]
