Fitness Your Way

Julie

Hi! My name is Julie Butts and I’m a BIG fan of Beachbody. I’m originally from Indiana but Hampton Roads Virginia has been my home since 1993 courtesy of the U.S. Air Force.

I was introduced to Beachbody with the P90X program. I was looking for something that would motivate me and help keep me consistent with nutrition and exercise. I was tired of having large legs and hips that didn’t match my smaller upper body. I was also freaked out when I started seeing rolls on my waist line. Sound familiar ladies?

This program helped me regain focus and commitment in keeping fit. You see, I was active in sports during high school and stayed physically active while serving eight years in the US Air Force. Somewhere along the line though, I gained weight and wasn’t consistent in my exercise and eating routines.

I knew how to work out. I’d been going to the gym for nearly twenty years. I have some awesome home gym equipment. I’ve learned a lot during this time about nutrition. What went wrong?

For me, it boils down to one word and one word alone – consistency. When I played sports, I had to show up for practice and games. I had goals to meet, and I met them when I was challenged.

In the military, being fit was part of my job. I’m not even going to talk about the brutal get fit program you go through when you first go in.

Then, I went through several years of trying to work out at home and trying to work out at the gym. I’d do well for a few weeks and then, I’d stop going because I didn’t feel good or I had to work late…

When I saw our P90X commercial, I knew this program was for me. It was challenging and would give me a plan to follow. I knew I could stick with it for 90 days.

At about 60 days, I felt like I was getting stronger and had more energy. I was so excited to be able to do a side plank and curl more weight than I ever had in my life. Suddenly, I realized that I was still motivated enough to push play six times a week. I was challenged to perform at my best. I was determined to remain consistent to these grueling workouts.

I realized that the missing piece in my history was that I didn’t have a personal trainer in my living room anytime that fit in my busy schedule. I could also connect with other people doing the same program which gave me an avenue to share my successes, ask for help, or just vent.

I liked the company Beachbody and the P90X program so much that I started to inquire how I might wholesale P90X on eBay. I learned that I could not wholesale Beachbody products, but Beachbody had an awesome commission program set up through Team Beachbody. Now I’m a coach because I want to stay consistent and teach others to do the same using Beachbody’s proven products.

I realized Beachbody gave me what I had in the military and in sports that made me successful…structure, systems, and support. That hold true in all their work at home programs as well as their business opportunity.

P90X really was just the beginning of my fitness journey. I now write reviews on Beachbody workouts to share my experiences and give other women and men the encouragement and support they need to lose weight, build muscle and live healthy lives. I share what I know about Beachbody fitness dvds and Shakeology because I really believe they change peoples lives.

Since my introduction to Beachbody with P90X, I’ve worked out with the Slim in 6 program, Turbo Jam, Tony Horton One on Ones, Ten Minute Trainer, Shakeology The Workouts, Brazil Butt Lift, ChaLean Extreme, TurboFire, and RevAbs. You do not need all of these programs to get in shape. I like to experience workout programs personally so I can give an honest review to my readers. And to be honest, I really like trying out different things. I like the challenge and the variety. Sometime in 2011, the new P90X (P90XMC2) will be released. I can hardly wait!

By far, my favorite two trainers are Tony Horton and Chalene Johnson. I love Chalene Johnson’s training methods. I think they are more effective and motivatinag for women. On the other hand, I am amazed at the results men get with P90X if they apply themselves and follow the program. I totally love Chalene’s newest program, TurboFire.

So far in my Beachbody journey, I’ve lost a total of FIVE inches off my waistline. I’ve dropped from a size 14 to a 10. I shed almost 25 pounds. My new fitness goals include taking off another 10-15 pounds and gaining muscle definition.

They say you can’t keep something of value unless you give it away. I hope you’ll share in my excitement and join me in WOWY and the forums. My Beachbody screen name is simply juliebutts.
