Daily Success 12/22/2012 – Tanner was skinny and didn’t know his potential until…

15-TannerF-P90X

I played sports, but I was always a ‘skinny fat guy,’ so I never really played to my potential. I knew it, but I guess I didn’t really care enough to get serious about getting my act together.

Until I did P90X—and I was hooked. I lost 25 pounds and suddenly I was lighter than I had been in high school. It was awesome. Then, I was ready for more. I ordered P90X2 and it arrived the day my daughter was delivered. I was psyched. I was determined to get into awesome shape, because I always wanted to be the father my daughter would brag about!

Now I’m in the best shape of my life. I’m not afraid to take on any challenge. This summer, I finished 53rd out of 4,000+ in the Spartan Mud run, and next I’m going to run the Tough Mudder, which looks crazy!

Daily Success 12/20/2012 – How did William recover from his car crash?

13-WilliamM-Insanity

 

I had always been in awesome shape. But while recovering from a ripped Achilles tendon and injuries from a car accident, I completely let myself go. To the point that my son started making fat jokes about my weight gain.

And that’s something no dad wants to hear. We started working out together, and it was great for our relationship—but I was still gaining weight and losing hope.

Luckily, a buddy was turning 50 and asked me to join him in doing Insanity. I gotta tell you, it was rough at first. I did the fit test and wanted to puke. But I stayed with it. In a couple of weeks, I could see changes. By the time I finished, I had completely changed my fat, tired old body.

I lost 24 pounds—8% of my body weight—my cholesterol, HDLs, LDLs, triglycerides, and blood sugar are now awesome! I used to be addicted to food, but now I’m addicted to exercise and Shakeology®.

You know, for me, looking at other people’s success stories was a big motivating factor. I would look at people who were working to get the kind of body I wanted and that would keep me motivated to keep “pressing Play.”

Daily Success 12/19/2012 – Christy was a mess after 30 years of dieting

Growing up, I always had to watch my weight. After I had children, I went on a roller coaster of dieting—I was the “Queen of Dieting” through my 20’s, 30’s and 40s. As I headed for the dreaded “50” mark, I was a mess. Too heavy. My blood pressure out of control. I absolutely hated myself.

When I started having heart palpitations, my doctor threatened blood pressure meds. I just wasn’t going to let that happen. So on January 1, 2012, I started Les Mills Pump and FELL IN LOVE!!! The first month, I lost 7 lbs. and 8.5 inches. I knew I had found my soul mate workout Then I added Shakeology and TurboFire and I was rocking.

At 51, I’m in the best shape of my life. So far, I’ve lost 28 pounds and my blood pressure went from 165/89 to a nice normal range of 119/64! My doctor was shocked and he’s so proud. I owe it all to Shakeology and Chalene for all the high energy she brings to my TV. I’m so pyched for LES MILLS COMBAT, I’ve already ordered it!

Daily Success 12/18/2012 – Walker changed his life 10 minutes at a time!

At 35, I was nowhere near being seriously overweight, but I was tired of seeing my spare tire grow. I’d avoid the pool, or anywhere that I had to take my shirt off, and I couldn’t stand to look in the mirror and see the elastic band on my shorts fold over because my belly was so big! But with a demanding job and 2 young children, life was busy. Too busy, I thought, for exercise.

Then, a friend who’d lost a ton of weight with P90X told me about 10-Minute Trainer. So after having spent a few years contemplating a fitness routine, I figured that this was one I could commit to since it only took ten minutes a day. (delete And) After the first workout, I was hooked. The workouts were short, but intense, and the fat just melted away. I couldn’t believe how quickly I was transforming!

Now my stomach is flatter, my core is stronger, my arms are toned, my back pain is gone, and my posture is so much better. I sleep more soundly, have tons more energy, and am no longer ashamed to have my shirt off. Most of all, I love hearing people who haven’t seen me in a while say, “You look great. You’ve lost a lot of weight. What are you doing?” When I tell them, they can’t believe that I’ve built this physique in as little as 10 minutes a day.

If it weren’t for 10-Minute Trainer, I’d still be 30 pounds overweight and out of shape. Now I’m a “Lean TMT Machine”. And the best part is, none of my pants fit anymore!
