I just completed my first round of the 21 Day Fix. I say "first round" because I fully intend on continuing with another. I started by committing to 3 days. Yep, that's about all I could muster - sometimes it takes a lot to commit to something! :-) After Halloween, I decided I was going to go for it.
I have a few events coming up that will involve warm weather, pools, and beaches... and being around other very fit friends. Frankly, I wanted to wait to show off the stomach until it was where I wanted it to be. But, now that I'm a Beachbody coach, I am embracing that it's not just about the destination; it's about the journey.
My mom always said that. Back in the day when I was single and driving up to ski mountains by myself on Saturday mornings, complaining about the drive up alone, she said "it's about the journey. you have to enjoy it."
So very true. While I am absolutely elated to announce that I've lost 6 pounds in three weeks; I'm still not where I want to be. Here's what I thought about the 21 Day Fix:
Pros:
- learning to eat more confidently
- being able to workout despite it being cold and dark outside
- Day 8 (I felt elation, weight loss, in control)
- workouts that fly-by because they're actually fun!
- being sore! I LOVE being sore! That's the proof in the pudding!
- trying different workout moves (and not at the cost of a personal trainer)
- BB on Demand - tons of workout videos at your fingertips
- kudos to the trainers, because they made it really fun (ie Shaun T, Autumn Calabrese, etc).
Cons:
- The first two weeks I was very sore. After that, my body adapted and I was ready to take the next step! Now I'm pumped to start 21 Day Fix Extreme. From there, I'd like to progress to T25
What Next?
I realized that I was so excited about these programs that I started telling everyone around me about them. And duh, that's what coaches do. And by the way, coaches get paid to help other people see results. Coaches get people excited about tackling their fitness and health goals, use group setting to hold people accountable, and teach others about the business opportunity. In doing so, the coach has to exemplify the best version of themselves. So, I became a Beachbody coach!
From here I will be coordinating private Facebook groups for people who are serious about eating better; getting fit; training for an event, etc. I'm always looking for people to jump in and be the best that they can be. If you're interested in joining my next challenge group, or just want to learn more contact me!
