How Much Money Does A Diamond Beachbody Coach Make?

How Much Does A Beachbody Coach Make?

It seems like everyone is always asking, “how much money does a Diamond Beachbody Coach make?”. Well, it all depends. First I will explain how a Beachbody Coach reaches the rank of Diamond.

A Diamond Beachbody Coach must meet the following citeria; be active, have a minimum of 100 PV (personal volume), of which at least 50 PV comes from Customer Orders and has one (1) personally sponsored Active Emerald Coach (or higher) on each of his right and left legs, plus three (3) additional Active Coaches on each of his left and right legs. In other words, to become Diamond, a Coach needs to personally sponsor 8 people, and 2 of those need to be Emerald, 1 in each leg, and the other 6 need to be active and 3 in each leg.

So if you are new to network marketing, the above paragraph might sound a little complicated. To make it a little easier, I’ll just say that to achieve the rank of Diamond Coach, you need to sponsor 8 people, and those 8 people need to be actively involved. If you sponsor 100 people that never do anything, you won’t achieve anything. So really the key is to and sponsor just a few people that are dedicated and will take their Beachbody business seriously.

So generally, A Beachbody Coach that has achieved the rank of Diamond is doing fairly well and is most likely seeing their business grow on a daily basis. A Diamond Coach is also at the highest level of team cycle bonuses, which is $18 dollars per cycle and maxes out at $2000 for the week. So in theory, A Diamond Beachbody Coach with a large organization could make $104,000 a year just in team cycle bonuses. It is hard to put an exact number on how much a Diamond Coach makes because it all depends on the size of their organization, team volume, and personal volume.

I can however give the low, average, and high amounts a Diamond Beachbody Coach made in 2009.

  • The lowest amount a Diamond Beachbody Coach made in 2009 was $485
  • The average earnings of all Diamond Beachbody Coaches in 2009 was $21,966
  • The highest amount a Diamond Beachbody Coach made in 2009 was $296,130

That high amount is what gets my attention, $296,130! That’s some decent scratch.

Now here’s the kicker! Diamond is not highest rank a Beachbody Coach can achieve. There 1-15 star Diamond, and also superstar Diamond rank, which is the highest rank. The highest amount a Beachbody Coach made in 2009 was $932,118! Almost a million dollars, in one year!

So how much a Diamond Beachbody Coach makes depends on a variety of things. As you can see from the statistics for 2009 above, some serious money can be made in this business. If a brand new Coach just starting out was able to sponsor 1 new Coach each month, and teach all of their Coaches to do the same, and have them do the same, within a year they would be making a whole lot of money.

P90x Reaches 200,000 “Likes” On Facebook

P90x Facebook Fan Page

P90x Facebook Fan Page

P90x just passed the 200,000 “Likes” mark on its facebook page. It used to be a “fans” button but for some reason facebook has changed it to a “likes” button. Either way, that is a lot of people who “like” P90x. Less than 6 months ago I made a post about P90x reaching the 100,000 fans mark. This means that the popularity has doubled in less than 6 months. That is awesome! As a Beachbody Coach it is great to see such fast growth in a company, I’m very lucky to be a part of it.

So why is the P90x exercise program becoming so popular? The answer is simple, because P90x produces results. It is not like anyone forced all of these people to go out of their way to “like” P90x on their facebook profiles, these people genuinely love the product. Someone who is skeptic might say, “I bet all of the 200,000 people on facebook that “like” P90x are Beachbody Coaches that are just trying to build up some hype”. The problem with this statement is that there are currently only about 32,000 Beachbody Coaches. So even if every single Beachbody Coach “liked” P90x on facebook, there are still 170,000 other people out there that the love the product. The bottom line is that P90x is truly a great product that people love. P90x will undoubtedly have 1 million “likes” sometime in the future, I just wonder how long it will take to get there. My guess would be about a year or 2, we’ll see.

Mike Tyson On Day 1 Of P90x

Iron Mike, famous for biting off a chunk of Evander Holyfield’s ear, is doing P90x. He just tweeted (see the tweet) that he is starting the program and posted his “before” picture and says he will post another picture after 30 days. I’m excited to see Tyson’s results, growing up I was a huge fan of Mike Tyson and always loved watching him fight. I was especially a huge fan of his Nintendo game, Mike Tyson’s Punchout!, which I beat :) Click here to play the game.

Another big name added to the list of celebrities and professional athletes that are doing P90x. I’m sure Mike will have great results. Who knows, maybe his results will be so good that he’ll decide to make a comeback and take another shot at the title, how funny would that be?

Mike Tyson was such a sensation because he won his 19 professional fight by knockout with 12 of those knockouts occurring in the first round. He is ranked #16 on Ring Magazine’s list of 100 greatest punchers of all time.

P90x Yoga For Men

No That's Not Me...But I Gotta Get That Outfit

Before doing the P90x exercise program I didn’t really know anything about yoga. All I knew was that there was no way I was going to be doing any yoga, to me, “yoga was for girls”.  I had no interest in yoga. I had always thought yoga was strictly for women and it was all about doing some silly stretches. Then I started P90x and on day 4 I was introduced to the yoga x workout. All my preconceived notions on yoga were shattered in those 90 minutes.

Yes, the yoga x workout is 90 minutes long, and it is tough. For me, it was probably one of the toughest workouts out of the entire 12 P90x workouts. But even being one of the hardest, I found that it was also one of the P90x workouts that I enjoyed the most. I’m not even sure why I like it so much, maybe because it is hard as hell or maybe because it is just a nice change of pace from the regular weight lifting I’ve done over the years.

Since P90x, I’ve learned that yoga isn’t “just for girls”. There are a ton of guys who do yoga, even professional athletes such as boxing great Evander Holyfield, Shaquille O’Neil, football greats Eddie George and Shannon Sharpe, and the entire roster of the LA Lakers just to name a few. If yoga is good enough for professional athletes, it is good enough for me, after all, being in tip top shape is their job. (To see a more detailed list of professional athletes that do yoga Click Here.)

Even though the yoga x work is tough, it is also very relaxing. The workout starts out intense, then gradually get easier. The last 10 minutes of the P90x yoga x workout is basically just laying and sitting on your yoga mat, breathing deeply and relaxing. Yoga has many benefits, I’ve found that is great for improving flexibility and also a great stress reliever. I’m glad I chose to do P90x, overall I love it, had great results with it, Became a Beachbody Coach because of it, and it introduced me to yoga.

CEO Of Beachbody Meets President Obama

Recently Carl Daikeler, the CEO of Beachbody, had a chance to meet president Obama. In the video below he tells the story with great enthusiasm and humor. Carl also talks about how he came up with the idea of P90x while standing in line at a drug store, he’s amazed at how popular the workout has become.

As a Beachbody Coach myself, it is great to be able to take part in the growth of Beachbody first hand. It is awesome to involved with a company that truly cares not only about their customers, but about people in general. This is why Beachbody has made it their goal to tackle the obesity epidemic that we have here in the United States. It is definitely an ambitious goal, but they are definitely making progress. If you have doubts, just do a youtube search of “P90x Results” and you’ll find thousands of video testimonials of actual P90x users who had incredible results.

Shakeology Ingredient Spotlight: Blue Green Algae

Blue Green Algae Is In Shakeology

Blue Green Algae Is In Shakeology

One of the ingredients in Shakeology is blue green algae. This power packed nutrient can help to increase energy, improve memory, increase mental clarity, improve digestion, control cravings, heighten immune function, help relieve fatigue, PMS, anxiety and depression. It’s even recently been called a cure for ADD!

So what is blue green algae?

Blue-green algae, also known as Spirulina, grows in water as a form of bacteria.

History of blue green algae.

Supplements hit the market in 1979, claiming to help with weight loss and low energy.

Benefits

Worldwide research claims Spirulina may boost immunity, prevent cancer, heart disease, aid weight loss, improve memory, detox the body and fight malnutrition.

More On Blue Green Algae

Today’s scientists are only beginning to grasp the incredible nutritional value of blue-green algae and spirulina, but these superfoods have a reputation that reaches far back into history. A form of blue-green algae was consumed regularly hundreds of years ago by Aztecs, while spirulina was a favorite among native peoples in the Sahara desert region of Africa. Today blue-green algae and spirulina are some of the top superfoods, providing extraordinary nutrition in a time when most food sources are of poor nutritional quality.

Blue-green algae and spirulina, which is a specific form of blue-green algae, are found in nature growing in the still, alkaline waters of lakes and ponds. They are natural foods that have existed since life began. Their nutritional content is broad and highly concentrated:

- Blue-green algae and spirulina are rich in vitamins A, C, E and the B-complex vitamins, including vitamins B12 and B6. Since these vitamins are packaged in their natural form, they are in a highly usable state that makes them far superior to modern vitamin supplements. (It should be noted that some experts don’t consider the vitamin B12 in spirulina to be bioavailable, while others disagree.)

- These foods are rich in natural minerals like calcium, magnesium and iron. They are also an excellent source of trace minerals that are commonly lacking in today’s diet.

- Many of these vitamins and minerals exhibit antioxidant properties which aid in the elimination of toxins and free-radicals, helping the body fight disease and stay healthy. These elements also fight cancer – in fact, preliminary studies point to spirulina as a natural anti-cancer agent.

- Spirulina and blue-green algae are highly effective for heavy metal detox, as multiple studies have shown.

- Phycocyanin gives spirulina its unique blue-green color and perhaps its anti-cancer properties. This specialized blue pigment is only found in blue-green algae.

- Blue-green algae and spirulina are rich in protein, including the essential amino acids. By comparison, spirulina produces twenty times more protein per acre versus soybeans. Considering the rapidly declining reputation of soy, spirulina could be considered a worthy replacement.

- Spirulina is rich in gamma linolenic acid (GLA), an essential fatty acid which aids in the health of the joints and heart. It is also helpful for specific issues like weight loss and premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

- Blue-green algae can help balance the flora in the gut, which aids digestion and fights candida overgrowth.

- Spirulina is known for its ability to temper the appetite and stabilize blood sugar levels. It may also help with food cravings.

- Studies have exhibited spirulina’s amazing ability to reduce inflammation in the body. This can be important in preventing and treating a variety of conditions.

In spite of their nutritional punch, blue-green algae and spirulina do not pack a lot of calories. This makes it effortless to incorporate these superfoods into your diet regardless of your nutritional needs and preferences. It is important to find a quality source of blue-green algae or spirulina. Poor quality supplements may contain heavy metal contaminants and other toxins. Be sure to examine the source of your blue-green algae and spirulina carefully before buying.


Michelle Obama Does P90x

Michelle Obama Does P90x

Michelle Obama Uses P90x

Ever wonder how Michelle Obama got those ripped up arms? My guess would be that she does the P90x Shoulders and Arms Workout…Yes it is true, Michelle Obama does do P90x. The first lady doing P90x, who would of thought this workout would become as popular as it has. And this isn’t just hearsay. The news that Michelle Obama does P90x came straight from the President’s mouth. The CEO of Beachbody, Carl Daikeler, was lucky enough to meet the President yesterday and this is how their conversation went:

At once the door swung open, and in walked Obama. He gave a quick hello and a hug to Mark and then he walked straight up to Jon who said “Hello Mr. President we’re the co-founders of Beachbody – This is Carl Daikeler. You might know our products like P90X.”

With that Obama moves in and grabs my hand in a handshake and says “P90X! My wife does that. Man, I can hardly keep up with her!”

Carl writes all about his meeting with the President in his blog post that you can find here (Click Here). Later on in the evening, Carl has an encounter with one of Obama’s security guys, he gives him a card and find out that the guy is 2 weeks into P90x, and from his words, “the entire White House is using P90x”.

Michelle Obama may be the biggest name yet added to the list of celebrities and athletes that do P90x. Once again, more proof that the P90x exercise program works and is here to stay.

I’m Finally A Diamond Beachbody Coach

Diamond Beachbody Coach

My Diamond Beachbody Coach Certificate

I’m not one to pat myself on the back…but… Congratulations to myself! I finally became a Diamond Beachbody Coach this past week. My consistent small steps has made this possible. This business has a very simple concept, all I have to do is share my experience with Beachbody with others, its that easy. I’m not out there begging people to buy P90x, or Shakeology. I simply recommend products that I’ve used, loved, and had great results with. There is no “magic pill” to losing weight and getting in shape, I endorse a workout program that is intense and will be tough, but it provides results. Even after I make sale Beachbody does all the work for me. They ship the product and bill the customer, I just collect the check.

I was pleasantly surprised when I found a big envelope in the mail a few days ago from the Beachbody corporate office. In the envelope contained a certificate congratulating me on reaching Diamond status, a gold Beachbody pin, and a nice letter from the CEO of Beachbody Carl Daikeler. I was very happy to receive the package and plan on keeping up my pace. My biggest goal is helping those I’ve sponsored achieve the same success I have as a Beachbody Coach. By simply following the game plan that Beachbody has put in place, using the 3rd party tools they have created specifically for the Coaches, and being consistent, I know that anyone can be successful in this business.

In the Coach’s call below I’m mentioned and congratulated at about the 1:45 for achieving the rank of Diamond, thanks for all the recognition Beachbody! Listen To The Call
