I have a TON of people to thank for this, so, you know who you are because I have thanked you... I have tried many things regarding fitness and nutrition, but when I "met" Beachbody, I realized how "uneducated" I really was and found something that simply works if you follow the directions given to you. Anything easy is worth nothing...this transformation has been worth EVERYTHING.
"Whether you think you can, or whether you think you can't ... you are probably right." - Henry Ford "The lesser of two evils, is still evil." - Unknown "Obsessed is just a word the lazy use to describe the dedicated." - Anonymous "The unexamined life is not worth living." - Socrates
In the words of my coach, Mark Briggs, "pull up a chair," and let me tell you a little story...you just might connect with it...
When I set myself up to update this Bio, I went to erase/delete my original bio I submitted the first day I started as a customer with Beachbody...then...with my finger hovering above "delete" I thought...nah...the rest of you should be able to read it...realize that this kind of change IS NOT insurmountable; that ANYONE, that means you, can make a change...The most important thing you need is the right attitude. If you really want this change, you need to DECIDE to make the COMMITment. SUCCEEDing on this journey is the easy part if you adhere to the first two concepts...SIMPLE concepts. Once you get there...heck, once you get half way there, you will NEVER want to go back to "the way things were."
The paragraph below this one was my initial bio...now...I have been using BeachBody for over two years, completing multiple rounds of P90X, P90X PLUS, ONE on ONE, INSANITY and INSANITY DELUXE. My progress to date includes but is NOT limited to a loss of 65 lbs (235 down to 170), loss of 8 inches on my waist (36 down to 28), loss of body fat (26% down to 11.7%) and an incredible transformation of mind, spirit and obviously my body.
(WRITTEN JANUARY 2009): I am a 33 year old Corporate Pilot and very part time scuba instructor on the side. I have a 2 year old daughter that is going to run circles around me if I am not careful and don't stay in shape. I was an extreme athlete growing up, and up to just 2 years ago I was a serious martial artist; having studied for over 10 years. With a job that keeps my schedule completely unpredictable and all those long hours sitting on my rump, I have fallen to poor eating habits and an unacceptable lack of exercise. I have been coming up short these past two years; getting back in the dojang or exercising for a couple weeks straight, then...poooooof...I fall off the wagon...and I don't know why. I want to feel great, I want to look great at the beach and in a wetsuit, I want to be able to carry all that scuba gear without losing my breath, load all those bags onto my plane and not have to feel weak... Most importantly, however, I want to be able to chase my daughter (and the men who will be chasing her), and help my daughter's mother get back into shape; who is a little worse off than I am at the moment (in terms of fitness). I want to live longer than I will if I were to stay on the path of sludge I was on. I want to feel good when I wake up. I want to look in the mirror, rather than looking away. I want to inspire. I want to teach. I want to live.

What can I say? First I would like to thank myself for getting this journey underway and surmounting some tough but life changing transformations...Heather for getting me P90X for Christmas after talking about it for months...and I would like to subsequently thank BeachBody, Tony Horton, Shaun T, Mark Briggs...the tools and mentorship they provided are unmatched and have helped turn my life around...so much that I would like to now become a part of BeachBody as a coach. My transformation includes but is not limited to losing 65lbs, 8 inches in the waist, 15% loss in body fat...wearing my little daughter down rather than the other way around...inspired my lady at home to "dig deeper"...and am looking forward to training for some triathalons and eventually the IRONMAN!!! I am 34 years old and feel like I have reversed the aging process...there is no other feeling like it...
