10 Reasons Why Beachbody Fitness Programs are Perfect for Beginners

Happy New Year! Welcome to Day One!
Did you make a resolution this year? An article in Money Magazine today listed 2016 top New Years resolutions as:

• Enjoy life to the fullest
• Live a healthier lifestyle
• Lose weight
• Save more, spend less
• Spend more time with family and friends
• Pay down debt

In fact, the healthier lifestyle/ lose weight category accounts for nearly 40% of that list while a disappointing 8% of those people actually follow through with their goal past 6 months. Sound familiar? I’ll bet it does. That’s because starting a fitness routine or losing a bunch of weight to someone who’s not used to exercise and eating healthy is a hard to do and even more difficult to maintain. If you’ve made up your mind to improve your health or lose weight this coming year then you’re probably wondering where to start. Reaching that goal is going to mean daily exercise AND good nutrition. Beachbody is a good starting point. Beachbody fitness programs take all the guess work out of fitness and meal planning while coaches offer a valuable support system for anyone just starting out.

Here are 10 reasons why Beachbody fitness programs are perfect for beginners:

1. Beachbody fitness programs are a complete wellness program. Most fitness DVDs only

   focus on one area of wellness, exercise. Beachbody, on the other hand, offers a variety of scheduled fitness routines and a nutritional guide and recipes based on the concept of “clean eating.” You’ll learn how to replace poor eating habits with better choices. Finally, Beachbody provides you with your own personal coach. They are people just like you who have already gone through the process and are there to offer support, help you select the right program to meet your needs and remain in contact with you the entire time to make sure you finish the program and reach your goal. This is a complementary service provided by Beachbody. They compensates coaches so you don’t have to pay a thing.

2. Beachbody programs are structured. They offers a variety of scheduled fitness routines and
   

   an easy-to-follow exercise calendar that tells you exactly what routine to complete each day. IN addition, the program and your coach will guide you through a meal planning process and even provide meal options, recipes and grocery lists to help make the transition to healthy eating as easy as possible. Struggling with planning meals for a busy family? Not a problem. Many coaches, myself included, are working moms who have plenty of meal suggestions that are kid tested and husband approved!

3. Beachbody programs are convenient. Who else brings a celebrity fitness trainer and a personal coach right to you home? Workout in the comfort of your own home and at your own pace. Your trainer is right there on your tv screen, PC or tablet and you personal coach is available online to answer your questions and cheer you along. 
4. You can modify all of the programs. The trainers and your coach will show you ways to
   

   adjust your workout or modify certain moves that may be too difficult for you at first. There is a “modifier” in every program. The modifier works out on screen to the same routine but with less intensity showing you how to complete the same workout and get all the benefits without beating yourself up and risking injury.

5. There’s something for everyone. Beachbody has over 30 programs to choose from so there is something for all interests and levels of fitness. Your coach can help you select one that is just right for you. The company is so confident that you will like their programs that they offer a money back guarantee if you don’t get the results you want within a specified amount of time. 
6. Value. Beachbody fitness programs range in price from $19.95 to $205 (one time price) and

   come packed with all the tools you need to reach your goals. If you think about that compared to the monthly cost of a gym membership, personal trainer, fitness classes, the inconvenience of getting to and from the gym, club and membership fees, etc. it’s easy to see that you get so much more for your money. And you’ll have the support from your personal coach indefinitely – at no cost! 

   
7. It never gets boring! Each fitness program comes with multiple routines and you are assigned a different routine to complete each day. Many routines take as little as 30 minutes to complete. Mixing the routines up keeps your body working efficiently and keeps things fresh and new. 
8. You have the option of joining an online challenge group hosted by a Beachbody coach where you become part of a group of people who are all working on improving their health and fitness together. In the group you will find daily accountability, tips and advice, and motivation to help everyone complete their program successfully. You will get to know each other though a private social media page and group members simply check in each day to report their progress and to cheer one another on.
9. You don’t need to buy any expensive equipment and you don’t need a lot of room. Most of
   

   Beachbody’s programs come complete with everything you need in one box. You can comfortably workout in roughly a 6′ square space. So most people can push the coffee table or ottoman aside and get to work! Some programs will suggest that you can purchase optional accessories like a stability ball, hand weights, resistance bands, yoga mat or pull up bar. For the most part, you’ll use your movement and weight of your own body to get fit. The only requirement is some sweat and determination!

   
10. You can earn money while getting in the best shape of your life! Did you over spend during the holidays? Are you worried you’ll have to postpone your fitness plan until you pay off some debt? If you enjoy helping other people, then Beachbody has a way to help you earn some extra money (maybe even a lot of money). You have the option to become a Beachbody coach right now. It costs $40 to become a coach (this fee is waived when you buy a challenge pack) but the potential impact you can have in someone else’s life is priceless. If you help just one person, you’ll recover your $40 investment. You don’t have to be a trainer or fitness instructor to be a Beachbody coach. You just have to lead by example and inspire others through your own experience and success. In fact, some of the company’s top coaches began coaching the day they started their own personal fitness journey. Our Coach University will teach you every detail of coaching. As a coach you will become part of a much larger team of coaches who unite and help one another succeed. Interested in coaching? Ask me about my coach apprentice program today! brendalajay@gmail.com
