Team Beachbody ¡preestreno!Español Guest

What was my life like before Beachbody? In my Jr. High and High school days I played Varsity Soccer and Varsity Indoor and Outdoor track and had a great body with a six pack. After High School I survived my hottest summer ever in Ft. Sill OK during the summer of 1983, when I went to ARMY Boot Camp and AIT training. During my 4 years of college stayed in shape playing sports and stayed fit while serving in the Guard.

Now I am overweight and out of shape with limited activity. My cardio consisted of running from the office to the car if it was raining outside. I was feeling additional pressure and miserable due to my suit pants and dress slacks not fitting well and my jackets could not be buttoned or close properly. I went from a 33 waist & a 6 pack at 165 lbs to a 40 waist 215 lbs and what I call my “One Pack” over the last 7 years. My female friends would say “Alex fortunately you’re 6 feet tall so it doesn’t look to bad.” My Doctor told me I have elevated bad Cholesterol levels and early stages of hypertension.

In December 2008 while visiting my friend who lived 4 flights up-20 steps per flight and no elevator. I volunteered to carry her groceries about 8-10 bags up the stairs because she hurt her knee and could not carry her groceries and use crutches all at the same time. When I reached the front door of her apartment I was out of breath, she teased me and asked “Alex are you out of shape or you happy to see me” (LOL)

I tried different diets and a few different exercise programs over the last few years, but I never seemed to see the results I really wanted, so I didn’t stick with it. I recently saw a BeachBody infomercial.

By a blessing from God I spoke to a Church friend and he directly introduced me to Team BeachBody and the business opportunity. I feel it’s a WIN/WIN Opportunity. I can make myself a healthier person and help others do the same

My Body Weight & Body Fat has decreased. A few of my female friends have taken notice and made positive comments about my success. Take a look at my progress chart here. I feel much better since I started my Beachbody routines. I have lost weight, started taking time out for myself to eat properly. I feel like a healthier person with improved strength, sleep better, not stressed out as much, even more positive and upbeat than normal.

I know my journey has only begun for a lifetime of staying in shape, but at least I am taking action and the much needed first step. The Team Beachbody back office is great. It really has helped me out with a wide variety of menu choices and the convenience of a food shopping list that I can print out and then buy food at the local supermarket.
