Yesterday, I sent out an newsletter to almost 10,000 subscribers and had the most unsubscribes and complaints of any newsletter that I have ever sent out. The title of the blog was, “When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going”. Honestly, I can’t imagine what turned people off. My […]

On May 17, 1985, at around 5:00 pm, as you can read in the post below, my five year old daughter and I had a very serious car accident. That accident, although we both survived, in an instant, ruined my health and changed my life. In the weeks and months […]
If you think that you can’t be a success story with Team Beachbody, then you are simply wrong. The reason that I can say that is because, against all odds, I have become a success story. I’ve told this story before, but let me summarize it again. I became a […]
In late 2006, the revolution began. Unlike the American Revolution and the original colonists creating the 13 colonies, the Million Dollar Body revolution, as it was known then, was begun by 42 “founding colonists” committed to a modern day American Revolution.

On March 25th, 2001 at this time, I was cooling down after the Land of Enchantment 15K with a woman who was on the same racing team as I was here in Albuquerque. Yes, she did beat me (she was 30 and I was 50) and no, I was […]

An open letter to my Team of Beachbody Coaches: The Founding Fathers of our nation had integrity. The founding coaches of Team Beachbody had integrity. They bought Beachbody products and they used them. They worked out in WOWY because of the peer support that they got, the peer support that […]
Coaches, it must have been about 3 years ago or so that Carl Daikeler and Beachbody came up with the idea of putting most, if not all, of their customers in the care of a handful of members who had faithfully used Beacbody products and been active on the message […]

An Open Letter to My Team of Coaches: The subject line of this blog, which comes from a CNN headline, is representative of the type of email that you get from a friend who wants to prove to you how our politicians are wasting money. “Scandalous. How could […]
I got an email this morning with that question in the subject line. Many more of you probably have the same question, so here is my email response: Mike, for each person the journey is different. For me, it is just being passionate about helping other people become fit, healthy […]
Hi Team, Some people don’t want to become Team Beachbody coaches because they think that it is too much work. I personally believe that what we do is an extraordinary opportunity and that the work that we put in is for a greater good that will impact literally everyone […]
In my 30’s and 40’s my passion was running and I accomplished a lot even with some challenging circumstances. That passion carried easily on into my 50’s and then Grace came along and I instantly had two passions – being the best father that I could be and fitting […]
Meredith Gelfand is a Team Beachbody Coach and she recently shared her story with a group of other coaches in Philadelphia. She was also kind enough to retell her story in an email to Beachbody CEO Carl Daikeler, and it is pasted below. “On May 30, 2006, I weighed […]

In the days of innocence which now seem to be lost, a catchy advertising slogan was, “What’s in your wallet?” for CapitalOne credit cards. Now the catchphrase of the day seems to be, “What’s in the plan?” meaning the financial bailout plan or financial rescue plan as the name […]
