David's Story was also in People Magazine

David's Story was also in People Magazine

David Keenan was recently on the Today Show where they were doing a segment about 3 people who had incredible weight loss stories. David attributed his weight loss to Beachbody’s workout DVDs. Davis was well over 300 pounds and was ashamed of his eating habits. So was ashamed to even eat in front of anyone and ate every meal alone. David knew he had to make a change. See his story and his before and after pictures in the video below. This is very motivational.

P90x Makes Amazon’s Best Selling List

P90x WorkoutWow! P90x has exploded in popularity this year. From the infomercial and word of mouth referrals from P90x users and Beachbody Coaches, P90x has managed to make Amazon’s best selling list for 2009. (but don’t buy it there, buy it from this blog, it’s $20 cheaper) I don’t know the exact number, but is has to be super high. This goes to show you that the P90x workout is the real deal. Results don’t lie.

What’s great about P90x is that it is simple to follow. Beachbody’s motto is Decide, Commit, Succeed. Just follow those rules and you’re sure to be in the best shape of your life. Another great thing about P90x is that you don’t need any heavy weights or fancy expensive equipment and can be done in the comfort of your own home. In these tough economic times a gym membership is an expensive luxury that is usually one of the first things to go. Some thing P90x is expensive for just a workout DVD, but it is way more than “just a workout DVD”. P90x is 12 separate workout DVD and comes with very informative meal plans. Compared to the price of a gym membership, P90x has a lot more value. This workout will teach you how to be fit on your own, without a gym, and that will save you money in the long run.

Air Force Pilots Use P90x To Stay In Shape

I found this video that I wanted to share. It is about 2 Air Force pilots who use P90x to stay in tip top shape. It makes perfect sense, these pilots need to be in great shape and condition. The very high speeds and the G forces the pilots’ bodies go through can be very hard to deal with for someone who is not trained and in perfect condition.  A F-15 Eagle’s top speed is 1875 mph, that is 2 times faster than the speed of sound. I can not even imagine what is like being in one of those planes at top speed, it must be amazing. These pilots typically have 12 hour days of training that can be very demanding on the body, physically, and mentally. P90x is a the perfect choice for Air Force Pilots.

So now we’ve seen celebrities, professional football players, baseball players, mixed martial arts fighters, police, firefighters, a man in his 60’s, and a pregnant woman all using P90x. Thats diversity! The P90x workout can really be tailored to the individual and is still the best workout there is.

Fitness trainer, health consultant, and former CNN health contributor, Rod Johnson, becomes a Beachbody Coach. After 11 years with CNN, he finally left the network to pursue his calling, personal training. Rod’s new focus is training and educating others on health and fitness. He truly believes in the Beachbody revolution and plans on being around for a long time. See Rod’s story below:

P90x Results Video

P90x Results VideoThis is Duke’s P90x result video. His story goes back 3 years when he saw a doctor for a routine physical. Duke was tired all the time, he had no energy, and the doctor told him he was obese. Duke’s diet consisted of nothing but fast food. He was weighing in at 250 pounds.

Duke knew he had to make a change so he started running and cut out junk food. He lost some weight. Then Duke bought a mountain bike and exercised instead of laying on the couch. he lost some more weight. Then Duke joined a gym for the sole purpose of taking on P90x and having a fighting chance of getting through the 90 days.

In Duke own words, “It Was Time To Bring it!” P90x pushed him to his limit everyday. See his results video below:

P90x Affiliate Program

P90x Affiliate ProgramP90x is becoming more and more popular each day and affiliate marketers are starting to take notice. The most important thing to consider when choosing an affiliate program is the product. This is why P90x makes an excellent choice, P90x is a great product that works, there are hundreds of websites that show real results from people who have used the workout DVD series.

The good news is (some may think this is bad news but read on and it will makes sense) that P90x does not offer a traditional affiliate program but Beachbody, the company that produces and distributes P90x and well as a number of many other great in home workout DVDs, offers a home business opportunity that enables people to sell Beachbody products and earn a 25% commission.

How is this better than a traditional affiliate program?

Affiliates for other programs usually only get a one time sale from a customer. This means they have to rely on consistent heavy traffic to their website to make sales, which is very tough to do. Beachbody’s business opportunity is set up different. Every time someone makes a purchase from your Beachbody website, that person becomes your customer for life. You will make a commission any time that person returns to the Beachbody store and makes a purchase.

For example, let’s say someone come across your website and decides to buy P90x for $120, your commission is approximately $30. That is a decent commission but what the real good news is that they will probably be back to purchase more very soon. Beachbody does not only sell workout DVDs, they also sell workout and nutrition supplements specifiaclly for people who use P90x. Beachbody offers P90x Protein Bars, and a special formulated P90x recovery drink. These are consumable products that the customer will use, and eventually return to buy more, and this is how residual money can be made.

If P90x offered a regular P90x affiliate program, you’d make a sale and get a one time commission. If the customer returned to Beachbody to purchase more things later, chances are they went straight to Beachbody’s website and made their purchase. To me this is not fair, the affiliate acquired the customer and introduced them to Beachbody’s products, it is only fair they receive future commission on purchases the customer makes. That is why Beachbody’s business opportunity is better that a regular affiliate program.

Another thing that is definitely worth mention is Beachbody’s customer lead generation program. Once a Beachbody Coach reaches Emerald status (it only takes referring 2 other active coaches to qualify), Beachbody places paying customers in your business for you to receive future commissions on. They customers come from the average of 30,000 new customers Beachbody’s infomercials create each week. So we a Coaches are benefiting tremendously from the money beachbody spends on creating and airing their infomercials.

Lets not forget the most important part, Beachbody has great products like P90x that actually sell. At the time of this writing, P90x is googled over 2.2 million times a month. That amount of searches has to get the attention of any serious affiliate marketer.

Beachbody’s 12 Days Of Fit-Mas

Ok, this video is a little cheesy but humorous at the same time. It shows the variety of Beachbody’s product line. I hope you enjoy Beachbody’s 12 Days Of Fit-Mas…

The difference between Beachbody’s home business opportunity and all of the other “health and fitness” business opportunities is Beachbody’s products. Beachbody’s products are truly top of the line. P90x, Hip Hop Abs, Turbo Jam, Chalean Extreme, Ten Minute Trainer, and much more! They are all best sellers.

In most home business opportunities it is mostly the ones involved that are buying the products.  This is not the case with Beachbody, products are actually selling to real customers. P90x and Insanity are by far my best sellers but I’ll also sell some of the others every once in a while.

I’ve included the screen shot of my back office, it shows that I’ve sold over $4000 worth of Beachbody products already. I’ve only been a Beachbody Coach for 6 months. All of my sales have come from my website and from customers that Beachbody gave me. I’m not trying to say it’s easy, but normally making sales online is very difficult. Beachbody’s workouts are so great and effective, that is what makes them easy to sell. P90x alone is “googled” more than 2 million times a month. That is a lot of searches and opens up a great opportunity for anyone willing to put in the time to make a website and start taking advantage of all those P90x searches.

Because of Beachbody’s great product line, it is the best home based business opportunity to come along in a long time. I’ve worked with other businesses in the past and know that selling all those other magic pills, fancy juices, and lotions is nearly impossible. I’ve finally found a company with great products that I truly believe in. Being a Beachbody Coach is the perfect fit for me because I’m no salesman, and with these great products I don’t have to be, these products and the results they produce sell themselves.

Shakeology Recipes Review

Shakeology Stay Puft!The Most Popular Shakeology Recipes

In my personal opinion, Shakeology in not the best tasting shake in the world. A thick chocolate milkshake from McDonalds tastes much better. But I I were to have one of those every morning, I’d end up they size of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. With that said, I do believe Shakeology is an acquired taste. I remember my response to my first taste of the chocolate Shakeology was “gross!” But I continued to force it down, I figured the health benefits of Shakeology greatly out weighed the not so great taste.

I continue to drink Shakeology daily and am now starting to actually like the taste. There are many ways to spruce it up and below I’ve listed a bunch of the popular Shakeology recipes I have come across.

Pink Does P90x

It is amazing how many celebrities and professional athletes are talking about the P90x workout. The buzz is all genuine, Beachbody, has never paid any of these high status people talk about P90x or any of their other workouts. The people talk about them because they really love them.

Pop star Pink, talks about using P90x in the Jan/Feb 2010 issue of Womens’s Health Magazine, which she is on the cover of. Pink has a great body and now we know how she got it, P90x.

This is what Pink had to say, this was taken from her Women’s Health interview:

“Ever hear of P90x? My brother and his wife are both in the Air Force; they do marathons and triathlons. I went to visit and she was doing P90x. I couldn’t keep up with her-and she’s just had her first baby four weeks before. I was like, This is bullshit! I will perfect this thing! So usually, I wake up and do an hour of cardio, then an hour of P90x or yoga, then a half-hour of warm-up. i do that six days a week.

All I have to say is you look amazing Pink…Keep Bringing It.
