Life’s Too Short to be Entombed in an Unhealthy Body

Kristjan won the Team Beachbody $500 Daily Prize for May 6th! My whole life I’ve BEEN big, and LIVED big—spent my teens and 20’s in the 300+ club. Though overweight, I was still a happy-go-lucky kind of guy. I loved life and overindulged in things that brought me immediate gratification. But sadly, all those...

Benefits of Having a Library of Fitness

When I started out doing P90X, it exceeded my expectations of what in-home workouts could be. I tried other workouts before; some I enjoyed, while I thought others were just cheesy. After P90X brought me great results, I wanted to mix it up a bit so I gave Insanity a try. Wow! “Hell-week” during...

22 Times

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. It went through 22...

Chocolate Milk as a Recovery Drink?

I have heard a lot of people say that they use chocolate milk as a recovery drink for their P90X , Insanity, or other Beachbody workout. Chocolate milk is not necessarily a terrible thing to use after a workout, but is it the best thing to put in your body after you just completed...

A Positive Attitude and Support Assist in Reaching Your Health Goals

Making resolutions is the easy part, following through with them is the challenge! Many obstacles can get in our way from reaching our goals, our attitude included.  The biggest thing I have learned is how my mind can have so much power over my actions. Deciding you want something and believing you can achieve...

Why I Chose Pump Over P90X2 – For Now…

I felt like I needed to write something up on why I decided to put P90X2 on hold for now. Yes, I was really going to stat P90X2 on January 2nd, but I have to tell you, I wasn’t really looking forward to it. I pre-ordered it because I wanted to save with free...

Fit at 40? Heck yes!

I have a love/hate relationship with my age. I don’t feel my age and to most people I don’t look my age, but I admit, I’m over 40.  I don’t want to get into the whole psychological discussion on how society views women and age. Its not my intent. And I know that there...

Why Beachbody?

December 13, 2011
By Glen

I have been involved in some sort of fitness regimen most of my life. From playing youth sports as a child, to weight lifting in my teens and early twenties, to mountain biking. In recent years I dipped into the “in-home fitness” spectrum of exercising. It started when my wife would buy DVDs by...

Fitness with Diana Asylum: My favorite workout program so far!

April 28, 2011
By Diana

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 (a workout in which I am...
