Ever wonder why kids have a never ending source of energy? Watching my kids run around outside enjoying the fresh air and having fun made me think. My children are much happier, more energized, and have better concentration after enjoying physical activity. Everyone can experience these results and feel the […]

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 […]
Last week I set my plan, finish my advanced round of Power90, then move on to Insanity: The Asylum. Two days later, my shoulder said, not so fast. I woke up and couldn’t lift my arm much above my waist. Ouch! Did I overdo it? Possibly, but I don’t think […]
I do believe Asylum is my favorite workout program to date! All the workouts in this program are created to prepare you for Game Day, the first of which is on day 11. I was nervous for Game Day since Vertical Plyo is the craziest workout ever created […]
New York City is the city that never sleeps and I am the coach that never sleeps. I am relentless in working toward the goals of Team Beachbody and labor with integrity, sincerity and a deep sense of faith in what is right and in the opportunity that has been […]
We’ve all felt that feeling of dread when we know we should work out, but just can’t seem to get motivated. You may be comfortable in your sweats or pajamas and don’t want to even think about changing into workout gear. You’re so tired and maybe even a little […]
I started my first round of P90X on December 31, 2008. It wasn’t a New Year’s Resolution, that just happened to be the day I started. Before that, I was not a fan of exercise. I didn’t know how or what to do, and saw no purpose in figuring it […]
WOW…I did not like this workout! Not because it’s not absolutely amazing, but because I felt so completely out of shape with it. I don’t think any amount of Insanity can prepare someone for Vertical Plyo. My goals with Vertical Plyo is not only to be able to get through […]
I get asked a lot of questions about supplements. Do I need them? Will they help my results? What should I take? When should I take them? Do you take any? The short answers: No, yes, varies, varies, yes. There you have it. Have a great week! Wish it was […]
I anxiously awoke at 5am this morning to start my 1st day of Insanity: The ASYLUM to realize there is also a performance test to take before beginning the program. The Performance test goes through 10 different activities that you can compare every 30 days. Undeterred I decided to go […]
You want to lose weight. You watch Biggest Loser, see them running the treadmill, sweating away pounds. You run 3-4 times a week and eat foods they advertise, Subway, Jenny-O, etc. And yet, your weight barely changes or remains the same. What’s missing? Variety! Do you watch ALL of the […]
Last Spring I saw an infomercial for Insanity that claimed to be the hardest program out to date, and only for those who are driven to put themselves through a purely rigorous program with no excuses. I thought to myself “I can do that!†I was going to be turning […]
Being consistently committed to a healthy lifestyle can sometimes be hard. I follow a strict meal plan, exercise regularly and try to make the right choices most times when it comes to my health routine, especially living with hypoglycemia. Recently, I was reminded how crucial it is to keep on […]
I’ve been trying to post this for two days, and I just realized that’s a good thing. I had originally entitled it, “Why, How and What” but fortunately changed the subject. Had I gotten it done yesterday, I would not have read Darren Hardy’s article about the May […]
I am paying the price this week for my all out assault on cleaning the house. The garage itself is completely finished but not heated, so in the colder months it tends to accumulate all of the things that we just couldn’t throw away. Well, that all changed […]
“Failure is an inside job. So is success. If you want to achieve you have to win the war in your thinking first.” Brian Tracy To me, personal development coaching is learning how to be fit, healthy and prosperous by changing your body and your life. It is about […]
What happens if you have a bad day and miss a scheduled workout or don’t feel like you put in a good effort? Yesterday I was scheduled to do P90X Shoulders & Arms and even though it was 6:00 am, I was already having a really bad day. In […]
I passed a milestone on Thursday when my commissions as a Team Beachbody Coach surpassed $100,000.00. The only reason that I am telling you that is because I want you all to know that it is possible to make money with Team Beachbody. With daily effort, passion, perseverance and patience, […]

How do you feel about where your life is going right now? I am currently on my sixth day of another round of P90X and I already feel empowered. I feel stronger and fitter and have a better mental attitude because I am going in a positive direction […]
P90X day 5 is Legs & Back and I loved it! I didn’t need Tony Horton to motivate me or inspire me like he did yesterday with Yoga X. Today was exactly what I wanted to do – work my legs hard to give me a strong foundation […]
Honestly if I am doing another Beachbody workout program in between rounds of P90X, I don’t think much about the order of the P90X workouts. I auto schedule them in WOWY and whatever comes up in the first week is what it is. Today, when I saw that it […]
Compared to yesterday’s Plyometrics X workout, today was no sweat – or at least I wasn’t sweating like I was yesterday. I woke up with sore legs and knowing that my body had moved in ways that it wasn’t used to after yesterday’s workout. After listening to Tony Horton’s […]
Are you ready to go to X City? Plyometrics X is just one of 12 workouts that over 90 days will take you from where you are today to where you want to be and beyond with better cardiovascular fitness, huge gains in strength, improved flexibility and coordination and a […]
Life brings lots of changes and challenges and how we deal with them defines what we are made of. I once remember reading, “when the going gets tough, the tough get going.” Life got tough and I got going. My passion for running was boxed up and […]
The Hidden Reason Why You Sabotage Your Diet and Fitness Efforts Just When the Going Gets Good (and What to Do About It) Tell me if this has ever happened to you: You decide you want to improve your body and live a healthier lifestyle. You read all the books, […]
The most common hindrance to setting and achieving meaningful goals is our tendency to make them too small and uninspiring. If we become too careful, realistic and rational, we run the risk of setting goals that have no power to stimulate our enthusiasm and excitement. A mediocre goal will not […]
Simple question: are you getting results from your gym membership? I hope the answer is yes because given the cost, you should be. Plus, you have all of the equipment available to you to get those results. But what if you are not? What is […]
Your alarm goes off and it’s dark, cold, and all you’ve got to look forward to is another day at the office. Getting out of bed, frankly, sucks. So you hit the snooze button, turn over, and snuggle back into your pillow for five more minutes of bliss. But ouch […]
