My Transformation

This has been a long time coming for me. I have always been an active person throughout my life, participating in sports and completing a four year enlistment in the military...but I was never truly a fit person. I never was a skinny kid and never in my life had six pack abs. Nutrition was something I had to learn later in life and even when I knew what to eat I would throw away my progress on the weekends with lots of beer and pizza. I found myself hanging around a crowd that was more interested in getting drunk and partying then finding healthier alternatives to having a fun time. I can remember back when the catalyst that really changed everything for me occurred. I went to my friends house and said, "Hey it's a beautiful day out today, how about we go take our bikes out and hit the trail!". His response was, "Hey how about we hang out here and play video games". We both kinda just looked at each other and realized we weren't on the same page anymore.

So after that moment I realized that I needed to find some new people to hangout with that are going to promote a healthy lifestyle in me. I went on a website called Meetup and found a Fit Club in my area that was offering a free group workout. I decided to check it out I had nothing to lose it was free after all. That was the day that I met my Beachbody Sponsor Kelly. She was this pretty blond with lots of energy and a big smile. She gave me a big hug when I first arrived and told me we were going to be working out today to a P90X routine called KenpoX. I thought, "Great that's one of my favorite P90X workouts!". You see, I had attempted P90X once before back in 2008 and lasted about 60 days. That experience, of attempting and failing, has been bothering me ever since. So when I found out I was about to do another P90X workout it brought back a lot of memories and I didn't know what to expect. But after we finished the workout I was pleasantly surprised to see everyone covered in sweat and high fives were going around the room. It was a great feeling and made me realize that I can do this!. I went back to a couple more Fit Clubs and by the end of my third one I was convinced that I needed to give P90X another shot.

My second go around with P90X started January 21st, 2013 when I decided to join a 90 day challenge group. The requirements for the group were to complete a Beachbody fitness program and to drink Shakeology once daily during the full 90 days. I decided my program of choice was going to be P90X and I was going to commit and succeed. I knew that in order to prove something to myself it would mean completing the same program that beat me on the first go around. So going into this second round of P90X I was determined to finish it no matter what and the results I achieved were fantastic. So what was the difference? Two factors were different in this go around vs the first. The support I received from my fellow participants in the 90 day challenge group and also Shakeology. I can't remember how many times I was inspired by the things that were posted in my challenge group. Some days I was wanting to quit and then I would read about someone getting up at 5am and getting their workout in before heading to their full time jobs and then coming home to a busy family life. I was motivated by their post workout pictures and educated through their personal experiences with nutrition and exercise. Plus there were always coaches available in the challenge group to support me along the way. The part that really brought everything together was the Shakeology. I was skeptical at first, but after my first week I could feel the energy that this super food packed shake was providing my body. I was benefiting from less cravings and feeling fuller between meals. The taste was amazing and I absolutely looked forward to drinking it every single day. For the first time I had brought together the three core elements that helped me succeed: fitness, nutrition, and support!

After signing up as a coach I had told myself that I wasn't going to promote the business and instead focus on my fitness program. Things changed after about three weeks in when I had a conversation with my brother. He heard me talking about P90X and Shakeology and he felt the passion in my voice that he blurted out, "Ok how do I sign up?". I was taken aback because I wasn't even trying to sell him on anything. I was conveying to him how much I was enjoying this new journey I was on and it became infectious! After telling my story to a few more family members I had garnered some real interest in the Beachbody system. Before I knew it I had my first couple coaches under me and was awarded the rank of Emerald Coach. I couldn't believe it, had I found my passion in life? Was there really a way for me to get in shape, help people, and make a living doing it? With no boss over me, no suit and tie, no 8-5 business hours. Yes! Yes, it is possible and when I realized that and the switch went off in my head and my drive and determination went into overdrive I made this successful.

Team-Trinity is my creation and I wanted it to focus on the same principles that helped me succeed and conquer this fitness goal. I want Team-Trinity to be a family of people who are here to help each other. We aren't all 20 somethings trying to get six pack abs or bikini bodies. Some of us are trying to lose 100lbs and increase our quality of life. Others are here to repair health issues such as diabetes through proper diet and exercise. Two of the Team-Trinity coaches are in their 70s and joined to work on improving their balance and absolutely love the Shakeology product. This place is for everyone and this place is for you! It is never too late to turn things around and start making healthy choices. There are many solutions out there to your problem and Team-Trinity may just be the answer you are looking for. Please join me as a coach and let me be part of your journey. For me, getting fit wasn't the end goal it is only the beginning. I am constantly working to better all aspects of my life and I think being part of Team-Trinity and Beachbody has been the best decision I could have made. Are you ready to be part of the team? Join Team-Trinity today!
