What a
whirlwind week it has been, so much going on! I hope and trust all of
you are keeping active, or at least have plans to start in the very near
future. If you need any motivation and/or advice, you know I am here to
help all of you in any way I can!
This week's topics:
1. I have a URL for our accountability group: Team Fitness for Life - https://www.facebook.com/groups/TeamFitness4Life/.
We already have a tremendous group of folks there, staying motivated
and accountable, and helping each other along. Feel free to join the
group and invite your friends and family along!
3.
Something I want to share with all of you, I have been diagnosed with
something called Atrial Flutter. You can read all about it on my blog.
4. I am back on Instagram, for those of you who use it, you can find me @trobbinsfitness
5. The past couple of days, I have been posting a daily poll in the evening on my Facebook Page
where you can vote on your favourite P90X workout. The entire process
is set up in a bracket-style, with similar workouts facing off against
each other. Monday's poll was Chest & Back vs. Chest, Shoulders, and
Triceps. Tuesday's poll was Shoulders & Arms vs. Back & Biceps.
Head on over to cast your vote. It's fun, there is nothing on the line
besides bragging rights for the winning P90X workout!
And 2 favors that I ask: 1) If you like the hard work I put into writing my blogs
and videos, PLEASE help me out by sharing them. Click the share links
below them and share them on FB, Twitter, etc. It really helps me get
more exposure and grow our team! 2) Also, as always, remember that the way I benefit from
being your coach is that I earn a commission from any Beachbody products
that you purchase, as long as you buy them through my site, tylerrobbinsfitness.com. It helps with the amount of time I spend answering all your
questions, writing my blogs, filming my videos, and helping you out. Thank you! I really appreciate it!
Hey folks, I just wanted to share some interesting news that I heard today from Beachbody. It turns out, Beachbody is putting on a MAJOR push to increase the size of their call centre in anticipation of increased sales in the coming months. Some of you may already know, but in case you don't, let me explain what that means to all of you.
Every Beachbody customer is assigned to a Team Beachbody Coach (unless they select one for themselves). With this expected surge in sales, Beachbody is pushing to also increase the number of Team Beachbody Coaches to handle the increased customer demand. In case you didn't know, Beachbody has a Customer Leads program that is available to all "Emerald" or higher ranked coaches. That means that they literally give customers to their coaches, in order for their coaches to help motivate and inspire new customers that come on board!
So, how is Beachbody recruiting more coaches? Challenge Packs are one tool (of many) that you can not only use to get yourself healthy, but to also become a Coach, and inspire others to join your team. Remember, you are a walking, talking advertisement, so in order to really spread the word about how great Beachbody is, you will want to be a shining example.
Currently, Beachbody is holding a Challenge Pack Promotion. This promotion is for those of you who are currently on the fence about becoming a Beachbody Coach. If you are currently a regular customer, and wish to remain as a customer, that is fine, jump down to the bottom of the page to the section titled "Challenge Group" as I would still love to help you stay motivated and connected heading into the New Year.
If, however, you wish to learn more about the Challenge Pack Promotion, here is what it is all about;
From now, until the end of 2012, if you purchase a Challenge Pack, you have the option of upgrading to "Coach" status - for free!
What is a Challenge Pack? A Challenge Pack combines the 2 facets of a healthy lifestyle - diet AND exercise. You get one of Beachbody's home workout programs, along with a month's supply of Shakeology.
What savings are you looking at? Well, it varies by program (Challenge Pack list is below), but let me use P90X as an example. Shakeology has a retail price of around $119.85. A month's worth of Shakeology has a retail price of $119.95. When these two are combined in the P90X Challenge Pack, you pay just $205 - a savings of around $35.
Having said all of that, by purchasing a Challenge Pack by the end of 2012, your Coach enrolment fee ($39.95) is waived. That brings your total savings up to nearly $75!
Oh yeah, and one more thing. If you sign me up as your Coach by the end of October, your name is entered in a contest for a chance to win one FREE copy of Shaun T's Insanity: The Asylum Volume 2.
Q: What is involved after I sign up as a Coach? A: You will need to continue to pay the $15.95 monthly Coach fees. Not only that, but by purchasing a Challenge Pack, you are enrolled in Shakeology Home Direct. This means that you will be billed, and shipped a 30-day supply of Shakeology, every 30 days at the Coach-discounted price of $89.96 (25% off). If you wish to purchase Shakeology on Home Direct, your savings will pay for the monthly Coach Fees on their own!

I have started amessage board thread where a group of us can band together, and motivate and inspire each other to stick with each of our desired programs. Even if you don't wish to become a Coach at this time (or ever), I still want you to join us in making 2013 everyone's best year yet!

How many times have you attempted to start the year off right with plans for a healthier lifestyle, only to have your plans fizzle out a few days or weeks into the New Year?
What if there was a way for you to get active, eat healthier, and stay accountable with a group of like-minded individuals all from the comfort of your home? Well, there is! Join my Beachbody Challenge group for results, support, and prizes! I'm starting a Beachbody Challenge group at the end of 2012/beginning of 2013. As part of my group, you'll be part of a group of like-minded people. We'll track our progress along the
way, hold each other accountable, and motivate, inspire, and encourage each other to achieve
amazing results. It's easy!
And as an added incentive, you’ll be able to participate in The Beachbody Challenge contest. All
you have to do is log our workouts online at TeamBeachbody.com for a chance to win up to $1000
every day—and submit your "before" and "after" photos for a shot at the $100,000 Grand Prize.
But the spots will fill quickly—and you don't want to wait 'til the next group! When you're ready, just
visit my Web site at www.trobbinsfitness.com or e-mail me at t.robbinsfitness@gmail.com to learn how to sign up.
Here's what you do: 1. If you haven't already, create a Team Beachbody account here. It's free! How many other gyms or support groups allow you join for free?
2. Choose a program from Beachbody. If you are unsure as to what program you wish to try, or what's right for you, you can either visit my website to learn about the programs or e-mail me so that I can assess your current level of fitness as well as your goals to decide upon what program is right for you.
If you are looking to make a complete overhaul on your lifestyle, you may want to consider a Challenge Pack. Challenge Packs are offered through Beachbody, and are a great way to get started down the road to a new lifestyle by combining an excellent workout program with the dietary benefits of Shakeology thrown in. It is a great way to save quite a bit of money too, as these products are offered at a great discount grouped together.
Not only that, but you will be offered a FREE upgrade to Beachbody Coach status if you purchase a Challenge Pack before the end of the year. To learn more about the Challenge Packs, as well as the Beachbody Coaching opportunity, visit www.trobbinsfitness.com.
3. Select a Start Date. Ideally, since this Challenge Group is designed to help folks start 2013 on the right foot, we should all aim to start our programs as close to the start of the year as possible. Obviously we all lead different lives and scheduling is not going to line up perfectly for everybody, but as close to the start of the New Year is best.
Why is that, you ask? Even though many of us may be using different programs, we create a great community of support amongst all of us if we are all close to the same stages in our programs. The starting few weeks are typically the 'toughest' for most as this requires potentially new lifestyle habits and changes, so this is the time we can all support each other the most.
I will personally be starting Body Beast towards the end of December. Yes, that means that I will be working out over the holidays, but that's life, and that's the commitment I have decided to make!
4. Determine the equipment you will need. If you choose a workout program like Insanity or Turbo Fire, you won’t need anything except a way to play the DVD’s and something to wipe up all the sweat. With a workout program that involves resistance training (like P90X, Power 90, and Chalean Extreme), you’ll need some dumbbells or resistance bands. I personally prefer dumbbells, but bands work well too and they travel well, so if you are an individual who is on the road a lot for work or leisure, you may want to pick yourself up a set of resistance bands. You’ll need an assortment of sizes since the exercises vary so much.
On some exercises you will want a lot of resistance, and on others you’ll need very light resistance. You can get an assortment of individual dumbbells or you can get a single set of adjustable dumbbells like those made by Bowflex or Powerblocks. For P90X you’ll need also need a pullup bar (or again you can use the bands to substitute). Again, if you are having troubles determining what equipment you need or finding the right things, let me know and I can help!
5. Get connected. Now that you have your Beachbody account, join us on the message boards, Facebook groups, etc. I will be posting links to all of these accountability factors on my Facebook Fan Page, so get connected with me there to stay plugged in.
6. Document everything! You never know if you’ll be in the next infomercial! I thought it was silly to take Day 1 pictures that I figured only my wife would ever see. Little did I know how much my body would change, and luckily I had those Day 1 pics as proof. Be sure you take good pictures, document your progress with photos, and take measurements along the way.
There are many different resources to help you stay accountable on your new lifestyle journey, so you are going to want to keep track of your progress through pictures, video, and measurements along the way so that you can stay motivated with your progress!
The reason why I am starting this Challenge Group so soon is so that those interested can get ready, prepared, and PUMPED to get going. Use the next few months to get prepared by choosing and ordering a program, getting the required equipment, and planning your diet in preparation for the best way to kick off the new year on the right foot!
I will be posting more information on this group as time passes and we get closer to a start date.
