Beachbody Delivers Nutrition Guidance and a Sensible Diet Plan
Beachbody programs deliver nutrition guidance not diet food. You are what you eat. That mantra helps me follow a sensible diet plan without feeling deprived.
Everywhere I look, I see ads for pills that promote fat or weight loss. I see commercials and magazine ads for companies that offer “diet food” to help you lose weight. I even see local ads in the newspaper advertising weight loss surgeries. What they do all of these methods have in common? They have the promise of fast weight loss. I am sure each method works for some people. I am not convinced that after the initial weight comes off that these programs provide enough support and knowledge to help people keep off the weight.
Weight loss clinics do offer counseling for their patients, but I have seen people take the weight off through weight loss surgery and eventually put it back on because nutrition and activity have not become part of their lifestyles. I am definitely not a supporter of popping pills because I personally believe they can have serious side affects.
So if you do not turn to pills or surgeries or diet foods from infomercials, what do you do? Well, there is the option of making small changes that add up to a lifestyle overhaul for your health and fitness. I love Beachbody workout programs because they offer the most complete solution in losing and maintaining weight. There is nothing magical in the Beachbody formula. It is quite “old school” really: exercise and follow a sensible diet plan.
Beachbody workout programs combine strength, flexibility, core, and cardio training and more. Unlike dvds you can buy at a department store, these programs also come with nutrition guidance and online support. The online support consists of message boards, chats, newsletters, a broadcasting network, your own Beachbody coach, and even access to an online meal planner that helps you select foods, make your shopping list, and stay within the calorie limits you choose. The meal planner will even allow you to pull up the nutritional inforamation (calories, fat, protein, fiber, etc.) on individual foods, so you can make better choices.
By the way, if you do not know how many calories you need, Beachbody helps you with that, too. When you become a member of the Team Beachbody community, you have access to a lot of free fitness tools like a caloric needs calculator, fitness tracker, and fat tester. Beachbody delivers nutrition guidance and a sensible diet plan with every workout program. I think the old fashioned way is a healthier and longer lasting plan than writing a check for a month’s worth of perfectly portioned prepared meals, popping pills with undetermined side affects or going under the knife. Overall, I think following a Beachbody program and diet plan is easier to follow and easier to maintain. Just saying.
