Tulsa, OK I started using Beachbody products in February 2005. At that time my weight had climbed to 203 pounds and I was not in good shape at all. This was disappointing to me because I was only 43 at the time. I felt I was too young to be in that poor physical shape.
In my 20's, after attending the U. S. Naval Academy (Annapolis), I entered the Marine Corps as an Officer. I had a 31 inch waist I started using Beachbody products in February 2005. At that time my weight had climbed to 203 pounds and I was not in good shape at all. This was disappointing to me because I was only 43 at the time. I felt I was too young to be in that poor physical shape.
In my 20's, after attending the U. S. Naval Academy (Annapolis), I entered the Marine Corps as an Officer. I had a 31 inch waist and weighed 155 pounds. Nine years later when I left the Marines, I weighed 160 pounds and has a 33 inch waist. Then my struggle with weight began. Each year I added another inch to my waist and gained a few pounds too. The breaking point came for me when a tailor reached his arms around me and said "39." I asked, "Chest?" and he said, "Waist." That's when reality sunk in for me. On Jan 1, 2005 I saw the P90 commercial on TV and decided I was going to get it.
Even though I had a Nordic Track and a Bowflex, I was not doing a good job of staying in shape. I needed a program, not a machine. Family members had their doubts that this would "work" but I decided to get the P90 program anyway.
Once I received the DVDs I jumped right in and began my 90 day journey. I joined WOWY and met a workout partner who logged in EVERY day! I felt obligated to get into the gym so I would not stand up my workout partner. I successfully completed my first round of P90 and saw changes in my waist, weight and body composition. An assistant at work noticed something different in my face and asked me if I had shaved off a beard. I told her that I had lost weight because of working out! I was hooked!
Now that I was making progress, I wanted to continue my journey. I attended a Tony Horton Fitness Camp in San Antonio and met a wonderful group of fitness enthusiasts who also had their stories behind why they were using Beachbody. They shared their stories and their results. I felt right at home.
Beachbody was here to help me. But if I did not do my part and push play, then soon I would go backwards and gain the weight again. And that is what happened to me. I didn't work out for quite a while and the weight came back. So I bought P90X. I did one round. It worked for me. Then I wandered away from it and didn't work out for 6 months. Having had success with the programs and then not continuing with them was causing a yo-yo in my weight.
Something had to change. So I recommitted myself to doing P90X and am pleased to say that I have hit my target weight of 175. I completed another round of the X and am now doing a back-to-back round of the X with a goal of 20 pullups (which I used to be able to do in my Marine Corps days!).
Fitness has become a way of life for me and I feel great! My lovely wife is now doing P90X and Turbo Jam. My two adult sons workout - one with Beachbody and one with the Marines! My third son also actively works out as a varsity high school football player.
Since achieving my goals using Beachbody products, I realized that I needed a complete system to keep me on track. Maybe I could have figured out a workout program for myself, but I didn't have an accountability system or a nutrition guide to assist my progress. So I determined to continue my journey with Beachbody and become a coach so I could help others on their journey.
Just recently a friend at church asked me if I had lost weight. I told him that I had and he asked me if I was doing P90X. I gladly told him that I was! The word it out! If you want to get in shape or stay in shape, P90X and other Beachbody Products are there to assist you!
As a coach I hold myself even more accountable to use the programs and continue my fitness journey. I look forward to working with you if you decide to pursue your fitness goals with Beachbody.
It is true that you are closer than you think. Keep pressing play!! And BRING IT!
Expecting the best,
George
