Beachbody Giveaway!

Well here is it... I know, you have been waiting for me to put together an awesome package of Beachbody goodness! You are maybe tired of hearing me talk about how much I love my Shakeology, or how my past experiences with Beachbody programs have been so successful... but maybe you are just a tad curious about all this talk?

Now, don't get too excited - this is the coaches pack that I ordered to build up my library for our Triumph Fit Club. I am so psyched about trying out all the products... I have had great success with Slim in 6 & Power 90. Now, I have added Insanity, P90X, TurboFire and Hip Hop Abs! So, between all of these workouts to keep me going AND a Triathlon in September AND a 1/2 Marathon in Oct, Nov, Dec, Jan and Feb PLUS my first FULL Marathon in February (hopefully) - I am feeling pretty motivated and super confident that I will be in the best physical condition of my life!

So back to Beachbody... I love the passion this company has for ending the trend of obesity, and I am honored to be a part of it. As an ACSM Certified Health Fitness Specialist, and quickly approaching the completion of my Bachelors of Science in Exercise and Sport Science, with a minor in Health Promotion - I am always in search of ways to make a bigger impact. It made complete sense to align with Beachbody and join the team of Independent Beachbody Coaches. I feel like I can really begin to motivate and inspire others to begin their journey to physical fitness and  a healthier lifestyle.

So in honor of Pinky & The Brain (me being Brain) - I am working on my diabolical plan to try to take over the world End the Trend of Obesity!

First step, motivating those who may just be ready to start their journey, or even those beginning and needing a little encouragement. Here it is the FIRST EVER Team Epton Giveaway and undoubtedly it is fitness related and it will absolutely not be the LAST!

Having said all that... So what we have here is a little sample of beachbody products sure to challenge you physically while providing you a healthy meal and snack...

First Triumph Fit Club

Well Heather & I just completed our first Triumph Fit Club. You know Murphy and his laws? Yeah, anything that could go wrong...will... Yeah that one. So here it goes.

First - I got to my moms (that's where we are conducting these classes until we can find a bigger *free* venue) and apparently she forgot this was even happening tonight. Her kitchen table was covered in paperwork & she had a quilt draped over the breakfast bar stools, drying. So I quickly started 'straightening' up the joint.

Then, our projected attendance went from 8, down to 5... by 6pm, there were only 3. At 615pm, we had a total of 4 plus Heather and myself. Not too bad of a turn out, which was actually ok, read on to hear why.

Ok, so my mom has a mostly empty sun room that is about 22x15. The TV hangs from the ceiling. I think it's the ideal setup. Everyone can see and there is plenty of room. After a brief discussion, we decide to kick it old school with some Turbo Jam. I try to load the DVD, but the player won't turn on... as a matter of fact nothing will, not the cable, not the television, not the DVD..nothing. So after all of us trying to figure out if there was a switch, a circuit breaker or a plug undone - I call my mother (who is on her way to bible study) asking her a million questions as to why she thinks this deal isn't working! Finally someone says, "Can we do it in the living room?"

YAY! A solution... well not so fast... Apparently, I need an engineering degree to figure out any electronics in my mothers house. I get the DVD on, TV on, sub woofer on... no picture! What the... Again, I am on the phone...'pick up, pick up' Mom is now IN bible study and much like a movie, you have to turn your phone off... damn (no worries, she prays for me daily!). Is there a Plan C?

Ok, so now I have my mom's 15inch screen laptop on top of the fireplace mantle and have redistributed her furniture to the furthest corners of the living room. Finally we can get this FIT CLUB started!!!

Remember how I said how the smaller turn out was actually ok... here's why...

It's almost like no one wanted to be in front, but with all the kicks, I wouldn't be up there either...notice me in the pink, I look pretty friggen excited right? Well I was... I was having a good time! Where I lack in coordination, I make up for in enthusiasm.

In the middle of the workout the computer froze... can you say Water Break? I got it restarted and we all went on to complete the workout :)

After breaking a sweat, we whipped up some Shakeology samples. We did both the Greenberry & the Chocolate. I have to say, it was a hit!

So, alls well that ends well! Our first Fit Club, was Triumphant - we could have given up, we could have backed out but no, we did what we had to do to get our fitness on! Thank you ladies, for your patience, your positive attitudes and of course - your sense of humor! Hope to see you again next week!
