What's the Best Time to Become a Team Beachbody Coach?

Passion is a MUST in this business. In order to be truly successful, I believe you have to be passionate about what you're doing. If you give your full 100%, you're going to get that right back whether it's a workout, relationship, or business. Helping people get started on their own health and fitness journey, gain confidence, and find happiness is my passion!!

It wasn’t until I started doing P90X that I really enjoyed working out. I could finally see definition in my arms and I felt like an athlete....something I'd def never felt like before. I was telling everyone about the workouts and people could tell I was doing something different and they began reaching out and asking me what the change was. I recommended it to anyone that wanted to lose weight and get toned. I just LOVED the program!!

Then, I found a blog all about one girls journey with P90X and Beachbody coaching. Oh my goodness y'all....I just had to try it so without even talking to her I followed a link on her blog and signed up to be a coach on her team.  Guess you could say, I'm a dive in head first type of girl. lol

My Round 1, Day 30, P90X Results 

Did I join as a Beachbody Coach at the “right time?” Was I in the BEST spot to make money?!

After over a year in this business, I honestly believe their is no “magic” time in your fitness journey to become a Beachbody coach. It depends on when YOU'RE ready to COMMIT to help yourself and others without expecting anything in return. If you're passionate about the Beachbody products, then you're going to be a successful coach!!

If you are just starting your weight loss journey, coaching is a great way to hold yourself accountable during your own journey. If you're like me, you don’t want to suggest someone do something that you're not doing yourself. I can’t motivate and encourage others if I am not motivated to kick butt in my workouts and eat healthy. As a coach, I always have someone to keep me accountable!

If you're super toned or already at your goal weight, as a Beachbody Coach you can share  how you succeeded in getting to your goals and maintaining your progress. Again, if you are truly passionate about the products, you're naturally going to share it whether it's a cute shirt, restaurant, or a workout program. Why not make a commission for it and have the ability to see how what you recommended that could change a person’s life?

TODAY'S the BEST time to get started!!

 

If you are considering coaching, it’s VITAL you find a team and coach you like. We offer a 9 Day JUMPSTART to help you get started on the best foot possible, and then offer a 3-week training customized to your goals! Plus, we do a private Facebook group for support and accountability and year-round incentives to help you continue to grow.

How To Set Health and Fitness Goals

Think back to previous goals you've set.  How many times have you set a HUGE goal to lose 50 or more pounds or exercise six days a week only to fall completely off track after one slip up? With the new year coming up, most of us have grand intentions of making this year the best year yet...why not right?  BUT without a good plan and goal, it just won't happen! 

Setting a new goal can def give you energy and get your motivation going, but over time those feelings can start to loose momentum...especially when you try to do too much too fast.  To avoid overextending yourself, start by setting goals that will build on to one another and keep you going throughout 2015. Breaking a HUGE goal into smaller, more realistic chunks can help you stay focused for the long haul!

The first step to setting realistic health & fitness goals is to HONESTLY think about your goal and write it down.   Make sure to write it in multiple places where you'll see it every single day.

Now that you have your goal, it's time to break it down!!  

1. How big is your goal?  If it's something that will take all year to achieve, try breaking it down into smaller monthly goals.  Hitting those smaller goals along the way will keep you motivated and on track to reach the ultimate goal.

2. What does it take to achieve your goal?  This is where you reverse engineer your goal.....write down every single thing you need to do to reach your goal.  

3. Can you visualize yourself reaching your goal? Take an honest look at yourself and see if this is a goal you really see yourself sticking with.

Once you've got your goal defined and broken down into smaller parts, take time to think about how you'll reward yourself along the way.  Rewards will keep you motivated!!  BUT Don't use food as a reward...we're not dogs! ;-)

Last, but not least, don't be afraid to tweak a goal as the year goes by. Just remember, life happens and the best way to set yourself up for success is by being realistic and honest with yourself.  

Now, GO out there and start setting your health and fitness goals!

Need support along the way?  Then JOIN the Bombshell Evolution Fit Club on FB.  ~Kendra~

A Healthy Holiday Present--> Striiv Fusion Fitness Tracker

Did you get any health & fitness related presents for Christmas this year?  I hit the jackpot when my hubby got me a Striiv Fusion Fitness Activity Tracker.  I had been eyeing it, googling it and reading every review of fitness trackers I could get my hands on and I was sold on this one, because of how it also acts like a Smart Watch.  Love the fitness/techy combo!!

I thought I'd share a little info on it with y'all just in case you're thinking off trying it out.  I've never been a big watch wearer, but I LOVE to accessorize by layering bracelets so the FIRST major concern for me was that it wasn't big and bulky like a sports watch.  This ones slim and just looks like a black band...so it blends with my other arm candy.

I also love the way it displays my steps, sends push notifications when I get texts, calls or FB messages and I can even control my phone's music right from the tracker.  Love it!

The packaging it came in was also really nice....PLUS the instructions was super simple to follow.  I hate reading pages and pages on instructions, so that was nice!!

I have only been using it for 2 days, so I don't have an official decision on it yet, but it sure has been fun to use so far!!  

Have you tried using a fitness tracker?  Which one?  How'd you like it?  ~Kendra~

5 Day FREE Clean Eating Challenge ->Starts Jan. 5th!

Luckily I was still able to squeeze into my dress on the BIG DAY!! hehe Near the end of 2013, I became a Beachbody Coach and started to really hone in o...n clean eating.

In 2014, I've learned how to not only eat clean, but manage my portions while still eating foods that I love. In 2015, my goal is to help share this with more of YOU!! If you're ready to learn how to eat clean....what to put on your grocery list, how to plan out your meals and want a group of like-minded ladies to walk along side you as you get started, then this is a GREAT group for you!!!

6 Tips for Overcoming Holiday Stress

1. Exercise Regularly. The best thing to do about the unavoidable going way overboard during the holidays is by exercising regularly. A good sweat does wonders for the toxins and extra calories from all the holiday activities while also relieving built up stress.

2. Have a plan. Buy a calendar or daily planner.  Then start listing all the activities that you want to attend during the holidays: concerts, church events, family gatherings and such all need to be listed on it. Keep it handy and make a rule: It must be on the calendar if it's going to happen. This keeps everyone aware of whats going on, when and where....so everyone stays informed and doesn't miss out.

3. Schedule alone time.  It's easy to get carried away with scheduling and planning out every second of the holidays.  Just remember to squeeze in some alone time for your own sake. Sometimes we just need a break from our own go-getter schedule.

4. Be flexible. Just because you wanted to go to a Christmas musical doesn’t mean your whole family wants to too. Be ready to compromise....it's ok to go with your Plan B. There will always be unplanned things that come or or changes in your carefully crafted plans. If you stay flexible, you’ll be much less stressed heading into the new year!

5. Don't over book.  By doing less, you might actually enjoy and relax during the holidays more. Trying saying no to at least one holiday activity so you have more time to just soak in the season and relax at home with your family.

6. Go gadget free.  When at holiday events and parties, turn the phone on silent, say goodbye to Facebook and just be present in the moment.  The constant ringing, buzzing and vibrating of our phones can actually cause us to have elevated stress levels, so turn them off when possible at family gatherings and holiday events.

8 Ways to Loose the Dreaded Holiday Bloat

I absolutely love the holidays, the time with family, shopping, sparkling lights and all of the Christmas decorations! I have a hard time avoiding all the seasonal treats and chocolate-y foods though can lead to bloat....even eating when you eat them in moderation. Here are 8 tips to lose that yucky holiday bloat. 

8 Ways to Loose the Dreaded Holiday Bloat:

1. Stay hydrated. 
We’ve heard it a million times, but, as for most things, it's easier said then done. Start by setting a reminder in your phone or carry a water bottle everywhere you go. Water helps flush out all the toxins in your body from those processed holiday treats.  Plus, dehydration can lead to constipation and bloat which give you that uncomfortable, over-stuffed feeling. Remember, if you feel thirsty–you are already dehydrated. Drink BEFORE your mouth has a chance to get dry. 

2. Don't add extra salt to your foods. 
Salt causes you to retain water next time you reach for the salt shaker just say NO! Extra sprinkles of salt aren't the only way we get too much sodium. Do your best to cut down on high-sodium foods like hot dogs, cottage cheese, bacon, soy sauce, and chips. 

3. Go bananas for potassium. 

Potassium helps balance out your body when you may have indulged in some extra salt.  Plus, it's a yummy snack for to long weight between breakfast and that yummy holiday meal ((Ours always ends up being later than planned. haha)


4. Stay active. 
Even just 10 minutes of movement is a whole lot better than laying on the couch all day watching holiday parades and football with your family.  It will just take a few minutes and you'll feel much better afterwards!  It will also help you de-stress from the hustle and bustle of a house full of family and friends. 

5. Limit gas-y foods. 

Foods like beans, broccoli, pears, onions and carbonated drinks actually create more gas inside your body.  Just like a balloon...the more air (or gas, in this case) the more full you'll feel (and look).   

6.  Have your morning cup of tea, green tea that is.

Green tea boosts your metabolism naturally.  It will also keep you full and satisfied in-between meals.  My fav flavor is peach mango green tea....give it a try! ;-)

7.  Take it slow.

Chew your food slowly and in small bites. This helps with digestion and allows less air to make it's way into your tummy.  It also allows you to notice when you feel full and help you to avoid over-stuffing your self.


8.  Buddy up.

Tell your friend, your hubby or sen join the Bombshell Evolution Fit Club.  Support and accountability will help you stick to all of the above and avoid the bloat all together.  As corny as it sounds, teamwork really does make the dream (or goal) work.....so get with your team (whether it's your bestie, boyfriend, hubby or coworker) and go to work on reaching your goals.  If I can do it, I know you can too!

10 Simple Ways to Avoid Healthy Weight Gain

5. Use smaller plates.  When you pile a large plate full or turkey and dressing it can quickly add up.  If the plate is smaller, the amount of food you can fit on it is also smaller.  

6. Sneak in extra veggies!  Mix pureed veggies into casseroles or sneak them into starchy potato dishes. Adding veggies will increase fiber, which helps make us fuller.

7. Wait 15 to 20 minutes before asking for seconds.  If you give your tummy some time, you just may realize you're fuller than you first thought. Don't rush the second servings and you may not even need them.

8. Cave in to cravings.  Sounds crazy, right?  If you listen to your cravings and just have a small amount it will be better than trying to disregard your cravings all together.  If you try to over look cravings, you may try to eat something else instead and end up still eventually giving in.  There's no need for all those extra calories.  Just give in and have a small portion.

9. Chew gum.  Chewing gum will keep your mouth 'busy' and keep sugar cravings at bay.

10. Say no to alcohol.  Calories and carbs in alcohol add up FAST.  Try to keep your alcohol intake at a minimum, sine you're, most likely, indulging a little more than normal already.

My Story & the Beachbody Coaching Oppourtunity

Back in 2011, I was over weight, struggling with self doubt and staring at a scale that read 194.4lbs. I was smiley on the outside, but I would burst into tears at the smallest things, I was constantly stressed out and overwhelmed and I had yet to find God's calling for my life. I was basically completely lost.

In March of 2011, out of nowhere, I decided to make a BIG CHANGE....I started eating healthy, working out and eventually tried P90X. That's where it all changed. As I shed pounds and got healthier, I started to gain confidence and was waaay less tired and stressed. When looking for extra support during my 2nd round of P90X, I found my coaches blog and decided to become a coach....BEST decision ever. 

Coaching has really brought me FULL CIRCLE. Now, I get to help others, just like me, reach their own health and fitness goals....plus I found IT...You know...the thing we always seem to be searching for...God's purpose for our lives...it was right there just waiting for me and NOW I want to share it with you!!!

Can I sign up to be a Beachbody Coach JUST for the discount? YES, you can!!

I get asked a LOT if you can become a Beachbody coach just for the discount. YES, you can start earning the 25% Beachbody coach discount immediately too without ever “coaching” someone.

Why join for the Beachbody coach discount?

You may be in the middle of TurboJam and really want to try TurboFire, Insanity, or something else. If that’s the case, it makes sense to sign up to get the Beachbody coach discount on your next program. The 25% is even more beneficial to Shakeology customers. You can save approximately $15 on regular Shakeology (chocolate or greenberry) or $25 on vegan Shakeology (chocolate or tropical) each month after your coach fees! That’s $180 to $300 a year for doing nothing but signing up to coach.

Don’t let the title of “coach” scare you. If you want to rock this business, we are here to help you every step of the way; if you just want the discount and to be a regular client, we are happy to do that too. Just because you signed up for the Beachbody coach discount does not mean you have any responsibility as a coach (except to pay your coach fee $15.95 which is auto-withdrawal).

Why aren’t other people doing this? Well, they actually are! Beachbody stated that nearly 85% of coaches sign up only for the discount! Pretty cool, huh?

How much does it cost to sign up?

It varies. The MAX you will ever pay to sign up as a coach is $39.95 though. If you are on vegan Shakeology, you will have this paid for in 2 months just in savings!

You can also purchase a challenge pack when you sign up to have your coaching fee of $39.95 waived. You could get a workout program and Shakeology when you get signed up because. For example, you could get Brazil Butt Lift ($59.95) + Vegan Tropical Shakeology ($129.95) + 30 day Club Membership ($12.95) + Coaching fee waived (value of $39.95) for $160! That’s like getting Brazil Butt Lift for free!!! There are all kinds of programs to pick from too! The max cost of a challenge pack is $205. These prices are already lower than the coach price before the fee is waived so it is definitely worth it if you're a bargain hunter like me!

Are you ready to sign up for the Beachbody coach discount? The link to join my team is below; please just let me know you are only doing it for the discount so that I can add you to our client group for accountability and motivation and remove you from my “coach” emails for those growing their business. :)

Sign up to be a Beachbody Coach NOW

I will send you a Welcome Email and help you get started once you’re signed up. I can’t wait to get to know you!  ~Kendra~

Just 24 Hours in a Day

Do you ever look at successful people and just assume their road to success must've been easy?  Or see someone skinny at the mall and assume she can eat whatever she wants and somehow stay that way?  Guess what, we all have our own journeys and just because we may perceive perfection in other at first glance, there's generally a lot more hard work going on behind the scenes than we realize.  Success takes work, plain and simple!  Fitting workouts in to a busy schedule is tough, but if it's truly important to you, you'll find a way. 

Here's how I fit in my 2-a-day workouts: 

Monday-Friday (Thursday's my rest day): I wake up at 4:45am and take Noah (our Dorkie puppy) outside to eat, then I go get Zoey (our shihtzu) out of bed and feed her inside.  Then I gather us my workout stuff and some water and head outside to start my workout.  Mid way through I press pause whenever Zoey's done eating so she can get some outside time too. 

After that it's a full day of work.  After work, I come home and the hubs and I have dinner.  Then I spend 30mins to an hour hanging out with him relaxing and watching TV. Then, I set out our food and clothes for the next day.  I generally get my workout in around 6:30 or 7pm. Then, I shower and get ready for bed.  I'm in bed by 9:30pm most days so I will make sure and hear my early alarm. 

Weekends: On the weekends, my workouts are a little less planned.  My morning workouts are pretty much the same as weekdays, because Noah's so little that he generally wakes up at the same time ready to eat and go outside.   

My evening/afternoon workouts are more go with the flow.  I schedule them based on what plans we have.  If I know we're going out with friends or to a movie, I get my workout in during the early afternoon.  If we don't have plans that night, I wait till 7pm or so to workout, but no matter what I make sure to have a plan for the day. 

Remember, we all have the same 24 hours in the day.  How will you use your to get you closer to your goals?  ~Kendra~

I broke my goals down between personal and business related.  For personal goals, this month I am focusing on my workouts and weight loss.  I am so close to my ultimate weight loss goal...only about 20lbs away...but I've been holding between a 5lb range for quite a while and I need to break through!! :-) 

As far as my business goals go, I am working to really push my business to a new level this month.  I absolutely love helping people, but I noticed over the last few months I was slacking....I wasn't reaching as many people as I could and I wasn't helping enough people change their lives.  In September, I was 1 point away from hitting my Success Club goal, but this month I AM getting all 5 of those little points!! hehe  I'm also going to make sure that y'all are getting plenty of new content here on the blog and on my Facebook Like Page (PS: If you haven't checked it out yet, come on over and LIKE it!). 

What are your goals for October?  Share them below so we can encourage one another! :-)  ~Kendra~
