“Stress is basically a disconnection from the earth, a forgetting of the breath. Stress is an ignorant state. It believes that everything is an emergency. Nothing is that important. Just lie down.†– Natalie Goldberg Can you imagine the editor of the New York Times or even the editor of […]
Okay, who knows what that means? Answer: My House Is Your House. Why would I entitle a Team Beachbody Coach blog, “Mi Casa Es Su Casa”? Because the acronym CASAS keeps ringing in my head. In Spanish, casa is house. To me, a house should […]
These days, when someone wants to give you something for free to try or tell you about some opportunity that is great – regardless of whether they are friends, family members, co-workers, acquaintances or a total stranger – your discomfort level goes up and the wall of wariness creates a […]

It feels like yesterday that I saw the UPS delivery truck back into my driveway on that Friday afternoon. 11-1/2 weeks ago my P90X was delivered. I remember my excitement as the UPS man walked up my driveway with the Beachbody cardboard box. Nestled inside, was another […]

I am a compulsive googler and it seems like I am always thirsty for knowledge. Oftentimes, I will actually begin a search with, “What is…? and Google will find the answer for me. As of yesterday, though, there won’t be any need to google, “What is Team Beachbody” […]
Okay, so you are thinking, “Not some new thing that we have to do to lose weight and be healthy”. No, it isn’t something new, it is something quite old – writing things down, keeping a diary, having a training log, journaling – these are all old things that […]
In previous posts, I’ve mentioned Shakeology and its role in my health, fitness and fueling my now incredibly busy lifestyle. I have correctly credited Team Beachbody with the complete turnaround in my health which took a precipitous fall in May of 1985. You can read about those chapters […]
In the “212, The Extra Degree” movie, it says, “To get what we’ve never had, we must do what we’ve never done”. The 212 Attitude is that, “The only thing that stands between a person and what they want in life is the will to try it and the faith […]

I procrastinated, finding every excuse not to have one. I thought I needed more of something, but not sure what it was. But I started getting tired of putting it off and decided to just pick a date for my Team Beachbody Business Launch Party. I picked […]
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 […]
As a Team Beachbody Coach, I have offered what I believe to be a superior opportunity to having a gym membership. But like religions, you don’t say my religion is better than yours and I have not said that Team Beachbody is better than paying to go to a […]

For many of us who work out regularly, depression is something we never experience. Maybe an off day here and there, but nothing lasting. To others, depression is a serious and debilitating condition that needs medical attention. For others a routine of regular exercise will work wonders. […]
Being an admitted news junkie, you would think that I seek out these stories, but the truth is that they come to me. When I saw an article entitled, “Father Fights to Overcome Stroke for His Son”, I had no idea how inspiring it would be and how meaningful to […]

A case could be made that I am depressed or have reason to be, but what about you? Since the last time that I posted, I got an April Fool’s joke on Facebook that has set the tone for the next week. Clicking onto Facebook, I saw a […]
No joke. On Thursday, April 1st, Team Beachbody introduced the new and improved Coach Compensation Plan. It’s an exciting time, because this new plan will make Team Beachbody one of the MOST generous compensation companies in all of direct sales. In 2009, our continued growth put us in a […]
For some people, perhaps many, taking 6 days of rest and then anguishing over whether to work out on the seventh is their norm. For others, who work out 6 or 7 days a week or do doubles (more than one workout a day), a rest day just doesn’t […]
You need to lose weight, you need to lower your cholesterol, you need to get your blood pressure down, you need to… When are you going to stop being a ticking time bomb? Do you need to get the life sentence of diabetes from being overweight or obese? […]
The first time that I did this workout, it was my first real taste of Insanity other than the Fit Test and I was tentative during the workout and sore and tired the next day. This morning, I was coming off of Pure Cardio the day before and yet […]
No, not the name calling, spitting on, wrecking offices and death threats – the power that comes from being empowered through health and fitness. We had the power to reform health care by changing our exercise habits and improving our nutrition, but we did nothing about it. Not […]
Happy Monday! I was so excited when I opened my April issue of Health Magazine and found that they featured a workout by Tony Horton, creator of P90X, 10 Minute Trainer , Power 90 and other Beach Body workouts. The Health Magazine featured workout borrows some of the […]
After my body had a few hours to bask in the euphoria of thinking it had a recovery day from Insanity yesterday, it came back to reality and my legs were pretty sore. When I did Pure Cardio this morning, I felt like I had done a workout yesterday but […]

Do you ever have that thought, “Well, I’m tired and I have to ______________. Who hasn’t, right? I’ve had a busy week and busy weekend so far and I was tired from the first two Insanity workouts. I also had to get the Team Howtobefit newsletter done […]
Okay, this is a 40:00 workout and I was hoping for a little more talking from Shaun T with the clock running but it didn’t happen. I don’t know what most of you do as a warm up before you stretch and do your workout, but for some people, […]
Although the first Insanity workout is 42:00, the good thing is that the clock starts running and Shaun T is talking about the warm up. Then things start getting serious. Honestly, I thought that the warm up started to get challenging enough that I had somehow missed the […]
This morning was Prehistoric Preschool class at the NM Museum of Natural History and after class, the girls and I had lunch at the museum. We left there with coats, water bottles, projects, etc. and our hands were full. Before getting the girls into the car, I set […]
I may be a running addict, but I am honest to a T. As I said in my “Confessions” post, I was going to start Insanity today and that means taking the Fit Test. Here are the relevant before stats: Age: 59, Weight: 140.8 Feedback from the Fit […]
