			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The biggest question that everyone asks me is the one above.  Is <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">P90X</span> </a></span>worth it?  Lets break this down a little bit and figure out if a $200 or less investment is worth it.  It&#8217;s always about cost and results, so lets keep it simple.  <a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2219.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-1094" title="IMG_2219" src="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2219-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>When you see a workout program on television you automatically think it&#8217;s a gimmick!  I tried all kinds of gimmicky things like the Ab Roller, the Total Gym, and so on.  Is P90X a gimmick? NO.  It has been around for ten plus years and worked on me and several million others.  P90X belongs to a family owned company called Beachbody.  They carry a fine line of products like Chalean Extreme, <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/insanity-program" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Insanity</span></a></span>, <a href="http://phattyfit.com/revabs-dvd-set" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">RevAbs</span></a>, etc.   The issue is will you commit to 90 days with one of the best trainers in the business?  See you can do any exercise program and it will work or they wouldn&#8217;t sell it.  So if your looking for proof, look no further my <a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-results-after-90-days" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">results</span> </a>were amazing!  So now that you have seen proof lets get back to the P90X program.</p>
<p>Everyone program guarantee&#8217;s results but not this quickly, effective  and not this drastic.  My answer to the question above is <strong>YES</strong>, its worth it.  Why? Proven results in millions of people including myself and a proven method.  So let&#8217;s break this program down and show you the true value.</p>
<p>You can compare this program to any other one out there but if you want fast results then pick P90X or another Beachbody program.</p>
<p>For under $200 you will get the best trainer right in the comfort of you&#8217;re home.  No driving to the gym, workout <a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2251.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-1140" title="IMG_2251" src="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2251-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>on you&#8217;re schedule, workout as little as 1 hour /day.  Let me tell you that the program is not the easiest thing you will ever do and most likely the it will be the hardest thing you will ever do.  This program is for the person that wants to make an extreme change.  I always laugh when I tell people they should be in &#8221;decent shape&#8221; for P90X because even if your in the best shape of you&#8217;re life you will struggle when you start this program.  The biggest reason why is because it is based around muscle confusion.  You will work muscles that you never even heard of.  You will have to push through the pain everyday, <strong>6 days a week for 90 days</strong>!  Doing workouts like <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-kenpo-x" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Kenpo</span></a></span>, <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/yoga-x" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Yoga</span></a></span><span style="color: #0000ff;"> </span>and <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-plyometrics" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Plyometrics</span></a></span> that will target every part of you&#8217;re body.  Every four weeks Tony Horton will work your body like no one else and as soon as you think its getting easy he switches it on you.  Every  4 weeks is different and another reason why P90X is worth it.  It is a 3 phase program and the breaking point is you&#8217;re first 30 days.  For 30 days you will not see any results and neither will anyone else.  Did you put that extra 30 plus pounds on in 30 days or 3 years?  Exactly!  So be patient and follow the program.  Im convinced I want to buy <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://teambeachbody.com/shop/-/shopping/P90X?referringRepId=29886 - P90X" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">P90X</span></a></span>!</p>
<p><strong>If you were handed a blue print to becoming rich in 3 years and that blue print 100% guaranteed that you would be rich, wouldn&#8217;t you follow it?</strong></p>
<p>The same goes for P90X or any other Beachbody program.  Follow and you will succeed guaranteed!  Is P90X worth it to someone that is going to buy it and start it in a few weeks.  NO! Keep making excuses people all those fatty foods will be in you&#8217;re face everywhere you go.  Keep telling yourself this, that in 90 days I could be in the best shape EVER!  Is P90X worth it? <strong>YES</strong>.  If you&#8217;re convinced then lets talk about you&#8217;re investment.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s worth it so you&#8217;re options are to invest with a <strong>trusted beachbody <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/coach-q-and-a" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">coach</span> </a></span>like myself</strong>.  I&#8217;m not going anywhere and have been doing this for almost 2 years.  We are in this together and as soon as you purchase you will have me at you&#8217;re fingertips for any questions.  So now I would like you to click on one of the options below and get ready for a lifetime opportunity.  Good Luck!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Its time to explain day 3 of the Insanity workout program and it continues to live up to its name.  If you&#8217;re wondering the picture you see to the right is me sweating my butt off at a workout with Shaun T himself.  Before you start make <a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2262.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-1138" title="IMG_2262" src="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2262-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>sure you have the <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program/p90x-recovery-drink" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">recovery drink</span></a></span> in hand as it helps give you energy throughout the whole workout.  So on average the first month of workouts consist of around 40 minutes and Cardio Power is just short of that at 39 min and 18 seconds.  In that time period I think I counted seven 30 second breaks.  I am starting to notice that the warm up is pretty similar to the rest of the first set of DVDs.  The warm up consists of Jogging, Power Jacks, Log Jumps, Heisman 123, Butt Kicks, High Knees, and Vertical Jumps.  If you would like a better explanation of any of the above check out my <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/insanity-plyometric-cardio-circuit" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Plyometric Cardio Circuit post</span></a></span>.  These moves are 30 seconds each and are repeated in 3 rounds.  Oh and no breaks in between but if you have done <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-kenpo-x" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Kenpo X</span></a></span> then you have had some practice.</p>
<p>15 Second Break!</p>
<p>After your long break Shaun T starts out his stretching routine which I personally love.  Not because of the long 6 min and 40 second break but because when doing Insanity you need a good leg stretch.  The warm up reminds me of <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/yoga-x" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Yoga X</span></a></span> because of similarities in moves.  If you are going to do this workout I suggest you go hard for the 10 minutes of warm ups because of the long stretch right after.  Plenty of time to recoup and get your air back. If you really want to know how hard your heart is pumping or at what level you are at then look into a heart rate monitor.  I suggest this Timex monitor as I got it for my 31st birthday, it works really well and it is priced reasonable.<br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GBUP0I?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=phattyfit-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B000GBUP0I"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Timex Ironman T5F001 Unisex 100-Lap Target Trainer Heart Rate Monitor Watch</span></a><img style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=phattyfit-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B000GBUP0I" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></p>
<p>So at this point the real fun begins with a similar set up as the warm up but with different exercises.  After doing the workouts for a month it seems a little repetitive but very effective and that&#8217;s the point.  So the 3 rounds consist of Power Jumps, Belt Kicks, Hit the Floor&#8217;s, and V-push ups.  The most difficult is the Power Jump because it&#8217;s pretty much a jumping squat for 30 seconds straight.  I still can&#8217;t finish without a 2 second break.  You fortunately get 30 second breaks in between but the last round Shaun T decides to add Tricep Dips and Leg Dips.  I can&#8217;t finish either one and I am in great shape.  Get ready for water because your 30 seconds is counting and Tricep Ball Push Ups are next.  They are kind of hard to explain but its a push up but your in a ball.  Maybe it would be a good time to <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://teambeachbody.com/shop/-/shopping/Insanity?referringRepId=29886 " target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">purchase Insanity</span></a></span> and we can do this together.  The opportunity to lose some serious weight in 60 days is amazing and if you want to get rid of any waist line then no time is better.  With a combination of Insanity and <a href="http://phattyfit.com/shakeology" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Shakeology</span></a> you are guaranteed to lose 20 plus pounds in 60 days. </p>
<p><strong>If you act now you can get <span style="color: #ff0000;">free shipping</span> on the <a href="http://teambeachbody.com/shop/-/shopping/MDSUSH311G?referringRepId=29886 " target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">shakeology</span></a> meal replacement!</strong> </p>
<p><a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2264.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1131" title="IMG_2264" src="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2264-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>The last set of exercises consist of Hurdle Jumps, Globe Jumps, Moving push ups, and Floor sprints. I thought I would lose all my muscle I gained from <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">P90x</span></a></span> but there are a lot of moves that build and tone every part of your body.  If you are a runner then you need Insanity!  The endurance and strength you get is amazing.  I just got back from a cool resort in <a href="http://www.sandoshotels.com/en/playa-del-carmen-hotel-sandos-playacar-beach-spa-resort.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Mexico</span></a>and didn&#8217;t bring my DVDs with me and decided to run in 90 degree weather and holy crap I actually didn&#8217;t struggle.  I ran 4 miles every other day with ease and I hate running long distance.  After your 3 rounds Shaun T gives you a 30 second break and as you think FINALLY I&#8217;m done!  NO WAY!  There is one minute on the clock for what he calls 8 hop squats/8 push ups.  I literally am dripping sweat at this point and can barely breath but remember those push ups will keep your upper body tight.  With 3 minutes left of stretching, I just fall to the ground, lay down and thank myself for sticking with it.  The opportunity is in you&#8217;re hands and if you have read this far then I think it&#8217;s time that you try it, so click on the link below and give me 60 days!<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just got home from work and man was it ever a long day.  Is Friday ever going to come?  I am looking forward to the  weekend because all my boys are going to the beach.   I have so much anxiety over it though because my gut is like taking over and I can&#8217;t suck it in anymore.  I&#8217;m stressing out because I can&#8217;t stand the look that I have given myself over the years and it seems like summer is always my breaking point.  Andy has been going to the gym for a while now and he speaks very highly of it.  I will talk to him about joining the gym he attends and then we can workout together.  Whats killing me is that I just can&#8217;t stick to something and I can never lose my gut.  I truly like that Andy commits to working out but he is still very fat.  All that muscle but it&#8217;s hiding because he eats whatever.  Last night he told me that I was crazy for thinking of trying that <a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">PX90</span></a> thing because he can&#8217;t sit in front of a television and workout.  I asked him if he did any cardio like running or playing ball and he said no, all upper body.  I hate the gym because it seems that every guy focuses on there upper body.  That&#8217;s all I did and maybe that&#8217;s why I failed.    </p>
<p>Tonight I think its time I start running because I have a few days to at least feel better.  Damn Im out of shape so I better stick to a few miles today and work my way up to 5 miles by the end of the week.  Dan called me and he wants to hit the bars for a few cold ones and some pizza.   Should be a good night, I wonder if Dan has heard of P90. Maybe he will try it with me.  Since I ran I guess treating myself to a few beers and pizza will not kill me.  Damn I woke up with a slight hangover this morning and work is killing me.  What the heck am I going to do about this working out thing.  Dan doesn&#8217;t have time to do P90X because it takes like an hour per day.  I&#8217;m at the point now where something has to change and I mean soon.  I&#8217;m so fed up with my clothes, my <a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program/p90x-healthy-meals" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">eating habits</span> </a>and my gut.  My options are get a gym membership for like $50/month or take the $120 plunge and buy the program.  My options haven&#8217;t changed but now 2 weeks later I haven&#8217;t made a decision and well summer is almost over.  Why can&#8217;t I get motivated to just get rid of this look I have given myself over the years.  Probably because it took me two years to look like this. </p>
<p>Does anyone feel like this?  How do you think all the <a href="http://phattyfit.com/celebrities-that-do-p90x" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">celebrities </span></a>do it?  Just think if it took you two years to put on all the weight how long do you think it will take for it to come off?  I bet if you follow a structured program like P90x or <a href="http://phattyfit.com/insanity-program" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Insanity</span></a> then you will lose the gut like I did in just 90 days.  My <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-results-after-90-days" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">results</span></a></span> were fantastic and I am not like the guy above anymore.  Today is the day you contact me and let me help you become fit again.  Below are two programs that helped me become fit again so if you got this far your opportunity below is one click away.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today is a day that everyone runs into.  A day of what I like to call FUNK! Whatever reason it may be it will happen and I am hear to tell you that it has happened to me several times and that is the joy of becoming fit again.  The hardest thing for any addict is to make a change and when change comes it is too easy to get back into that comfortable state.  I started <a href="http://phattyfit.com/insanity-program" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Insanity</span> </a>16 days ago and it&#8217;s hard as heck but no matter what I still push play.  The issue with me is that I have been extremely stressed out and my downfall is sweets.  I know some of you can relate with other downfalls but mine is chocolate and ice cream with all the fixings.  Ever since starting this journey of staying fit over a year ago I have been  focused on helping others while maintaining my slim look.  You will always achieve the best <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-results-after-90-days" target="_blank">results</a></span> when you go 110% and go all in.  That&#8217;s what I did, I gave up all my favorites like chocolate, ice cream, beer, pizza, bagels w/ cream cheese, etc.  I lost 28 pounds in June 2009 after going through <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program" target="_blank">P90X</a></span> and thanks to my commitment I am still down 28 pounds. We all have breaking points or what I call a FUNK.  I broke yesterday and had an enormous amount of Ice cream with all the fixings.  Is this wrong?  Well it depends because it made me feel good inside and it hit the spot but I hated myself because the 40 minutes of Insanity went down the drain.  Guess what?  I still look the same today as I did yesterday, I still weigh the same but the only difference is I woke up with that bloated feeling.  Yuck! The feeling that your stomach is going to explode.  I woke up and hit the DVD player and man was plyometric cardio difficult today.  After my workout I enjoyed a healthy<span style="color: #0000ff;"> <a href="http://phattyfit.com/shakeology" target="_blank">Shakeology</a></span> lunch and felt great!</p>
<p>So back to my FUNK!  For a while I never wanted to touch all that bad food because I was scared that I would become the person I was last year.  FAT!  Not <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program/p90x-healthy-meals" target="_blank">eating</a></span> bad foods in front of my family because I wanted to be the leader and show them that they could resist the temptation.  Now that I&#8217;m in shape I can cheat once and a while but that constant eating of bad foods will catch up eventually.  I did accomplish a few things with my family.  My brother <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/beachbody-coaches/gallery/ChangeYourImage" target="_blank">Silvano</a></span> is a coach with me and has completed P90X, my parents tried Slim in 6, Silvano&#8217;s wife has attempted P90x &amp; Turbo Jam and my brother in law Joe dropped 20 lbs with P90X.  A quick update: Silvano still works with P90x, my parents gave up on the program and are trying &#8220;Zoomba&#8221; Silvano&#8217;s wife gave up again, Joe gained 15 back because he was laid off.  The point here is that something put them into a FUNK again and some went back to the comfortable state they lived in.  This is what we do and I hate to use my wonderful family as an example but I witnessed it all and thought by sharing this with you that maybe you could understand that we are all human.  This program is not easy and for some really tough.  Isn&#8217;t that the point to get out of your comfort zone and push so hard that you will achieve results no matter what.  The bottom line is quit making excuses and try the damn thing out.  You have money to lose but with the money comes a loss in weight and a younger you.  I challenge you to go all 90 days without giving one day up.  Once you get past the 30 day mark you will be so happy that you will want to finish.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am thinking about getting back into shape and every time I wake up I don’t look forward to putting on those pants.  I feel so fat but I don’t feel like working out because I hate it.  This damn belt is on the last hole and soon I have to go buy a bigger one.  I hate the clothes I have because they don’t fit and my average size shirt is pushing a large.  It’s time to get my day moving so I look into the cupboards and don’t see anything that looks good that is easy to make.  Screw it I will make a quick stop on the way to work and pick up a sandwich.  Arby’s doesn’t look good and Subway has that new healthy breakfast but they don’t have a drive thru so I will settle for Starbucks.  I love the caramel macchiato so I will get a <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-and-coffee" target="_blank">grande size</a></span> and a bagel with cream cheese.  On my way to work I hear a commercial on the radio about this pill that will help me lose 30 pounds.  Maybe I will look into that because I am too busy to find time to workout.  Mid morning comes around and I am starving but lunch is still 2 hours away what should I do.  Jill brought in some donuts and my favorite one is calling my name.  This is my last week of eating bad and I will start exercising and eating <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program/p90x-healthy-meals" target="_blank">healthy</a></span> next week Monday.  Oh this donut is so good and I deserve it so I really don’t care about my diet.</p>
<p>Finally lunch is here, this place is driving me crazy.  Since I made some bad food choices this morning I think I might just eat a salad for lunch.  The girls are going to Applebee’s so I think I might go with them since they have that under 550 calories menu.  We arrive and get seated right away so as promised I order a water and a salad.  On the way back to work I can’t seem to stop yawning so I make a pit stop at Starbucks and get a grande nonfat latte on ice.  The day seems to go by so slowly and 5 pm is never getting here.  <a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/IMAG0051.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1259" title="IMAG0051" src="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/IMAG0051-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="300" /></a>Uh Oh!  Why is my stomach growling at 3:30 in the afternoon?  I bet it’s because I ate light at lunch and my body isn’t used to that.  The vending machine has those Triscuits in it so I will grab that to tie me over until dinner.  Finally 5 pm has arrived and home sweet home it is.  Damn!  I forgot that Billy has soccer practice at 6 and we have nothing to eat at home.  Let me call hubby and see if he can pick up a pizza on the way home from work.  Man that was so convenient and still 20 minutes to get Billy to practice.  Now that I have an hour until I have to pick him up I will go to the store and buy some groceries for the rest of the week.  If I’m going to start exercising next week I should buy healthier foods and stick to the produce section.  I will get a lot of fruit and veggies but holy cow this is getting expensive.  As I check out I notice that Rachael Ray has a new diet that helped that woman lose 30 pounds.  As I thumb through it I notice that it requires a lot of time for cooking and I am so busy with work and the children that this diet will not work for me.  I wish there was something easier for me to do but I can’t find time to exercise.  The gym is too expensive so I will keep looking for something in the mean time.  The week has come and gone and tomorrow is Monday but I don’t have a game plan.  I will start walking just for now until I find something that I like doing.  THE END….</p>
<p>Don’t be Average and make excuses for yourself, <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-results-after-90-days" target="_blank">GET RESULTS</a></span>!.  Today is the day you put all that away and pick a Beachbody program.  If your male or female try <a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">P90X</span></a> and I promise it will change your life.  If you’re more of a beginner then do <a href="http://teambeachbody.com/shop/-/shopping/Power90?referringRepId=29886" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Power 90</span></a>.  If you have already done one of the above then keep going and pick <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/insanity-program" target="_blank">Insanity</a></span> or <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program/revabs-dvd-set" target="_blank">RevAbs</a></span>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2264.jpg"></a>The 3 day summit was the best experience I have ever had because it was so rewarding to know that others are out there doing the same thing I am doing.  Helping one person at a time become more health conscious and to exercise daily.  My friend Brad, Andrea and myself arrived at separate times at LAX and grabbed a tiny rental car and were headed straight to the <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/beachbody-headquarters-in-la" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Beachbody headquarters</span></a></span>.  I was surprised that traffic to the place wasn’t that bad but we saw black Mercedes everywhere like it was just normal.  On top of that every 25 cars anywhere in LA was a high end car like and Lamborghini or Ferrari.  So we finally arrive at the headquarters and all I could think of was how cool is this going to be.  We passed security and headed on up to the third floor and the tour began.  <a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2264.jpg"></a>After spending an <a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2251.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-1140" title="IMG_2251" src="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2251-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>hour and a half we headed back to the hotel to check in and eat.  I was starving because all I had to eat was a <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program/p90x-protein-bars" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">P90X bar</span></a></span> and that’s only good for a few hours.  After checking in we headed to the outdoor mall across from our hotel and ate some good Thai/Chinese food.  After walking past all the expensive shops we went back and picked up our welcome package.  Our first workout was at 5 and it included 15 minutes with every Beachbody trainer.  I have done RevAbs and <a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2264.jpg"></a>P90X so I was super pumped for those but the most anticipated workout was Insanity.  We got down to the room a little early because it was limited space and trying to fit 1,000 plus people into one room sounded crazy.  I had videotaped a little bit of each trainer and separated them into two posts named <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/beachbody-trainers-part-i" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Trainers I</span></a></span> and <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/beachbody-trainers-part-ii" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Trainers II</span></a></span>.  The workout went well and set the tone for the rest of the weekend.</p>
<p>After the workout we had very little time to clean up and head to the exclusive Diamond Coach reception.  This was an event that was limited to diamond coaches and above.  Here I had an opportunity to feel extra special as the guest trainers were Tony Horton and Debbie Siebers from Slim in 6.  I shared a beverage with Carl Daikeler and Jon Congdon <a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2247.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1135" title="IMG_2247" src="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2247-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>the founders of Beachbody.  I hit it off really well with Debbie and her boyfriend Tom.   The poor guy was taking pictures of her and her fans for the two days.  It was comical in a way but he was being a good sport.  The night ended around 1 am in Blake Warrington’s (upline <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="https://teambeachbody.com/signup/-/signup/coach?referringRepId=29886 " target="_blank">coach</a></span>)suite where we discussed strategy moving forward and where we all wanted to be within the company.  See anyone can be a coach but not everyone can be dedicated so I look for people that believe in the products first.  We got about 6 hours of sleep and to be honest after having a few cold ones the night before I wasn’t looking forward to <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/insanity-program" target="_blank">Insanity</a></span>.   I was actually nervous because I was a little under the weather and I knew I was gonna get my butt kicked.  The workout was so intense that I fell to my knees during the last 10 minutes and could barely breath!  Damn I thought after doing two rounds of <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">P90X</span> </a></span>and 1 round of <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a href="http://phattyfit.com/p90x-program/revabs-dvd-set" target="_blank">RevAbs</a></span> that I would be in awesome shape.  <a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2264.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-1131" title="IMG_2264" src="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2264-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>After the workout we had a chance to meet Shaun T and take a couple pictures with him.  There was about a 1 hour gap between the workout and the breakout sessions.  That morning they were letting us try <a href="http://phattyfit.com/shakeology" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Shakeology</span></a> for breakfast and I have to admit it was fantastic!  The chocolate was the best because they added peanut butter and banana’s to it.  I am now a big fan and include it in daily meals.  They let you order it as a <a href="http://phattyfit.com/home-direct-and-discounts" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Home Direct</span></a> so shipping is free!  I had a chance to shower and make it to the first session which was about Shakeolgy.  After Shakeology we moved to a few more breakouts where we learned more about the business and the opportunities in the future.  We were given about 3 hours before the awards dinner so I went up to the room and crashed falling a sleep to golf.</p>
<p><a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2269.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1136" title="IMG_2269" src="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2269-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>The dinner was fast approaching and I had an opportunity to sit at a table with Debbie Siebers and the table next to us had Tony Horton and Brett Hoebel.  I didn’t win any awards that night but I enjoyed one hell of a dinner and good conversation.  Lots of money was given out that night including 2 checks for $120k each!  Oh that was just there bonus checks and didn’t even include all the other ways they were paid.  The ceremony also included future workout programs like TurboFire and Body Gospel, the new Diamond Pack, future award trips and the 25K winners of the success club.</p>
<p>We stayed up once again until 1 am and got up early to make it to the last day of the summit.  This was the most <a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2253.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-1134" title="IMG_2253" src="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_2253-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>important day for me because Chalean, Tony, Carl, and motivational speaker Darren Hardy spoke to us.  There were a few other key note speakers but the few listed were the most intriguing.  Chalean discussed better business practices and how social network sites can help grow your business.  Tony discussed his 11 laws and Carl closed it out with a fantastic message and gave me confidence that Beachbody is not going anywhere.  Why?  Well because Beachbody has been around for over 15 years and they didn’t even get into the affiliate program until 2 years ago.  Darren Hardy was good as well and he gave us some good information on how to keep striving for success.  The funny thing was when he presented his little package of videos and books.  I knew it was coming but I guess everyone has to make a living.  We wrapped up at noon and had 9 hours to kill before my red eye back to Grand Rapids, MI.  My friends Brad and Andrea had never<a href="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/IMG_2278.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1228" title="IMG_2278" src="http://phattyfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/IMG_2278-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a> been to LA so we headed to Beverly Hills for some lunch.  Sitting on the patio in the hills made me think that someday I want to live this life.  Not the rich high class life but not having to worry about money at the end of the day.  I think I counted over 100 Porsche’s, 20 Ferrari’s, 10 Lamborghini’s, and random high end Bentleys and Rolls Royce.  We checked out the Kodak theatre and the street performers before finishing off with a tour of the celebrity homes.  If there wasn’t anything more motivating then to see some of the sizes of homes and how people lived out here.  We got back after an hour and a half and headed to the airport.  Shared a few moments of the weekend and headed off home to Grand Rapids.  The red eye was not fun but the face on my little girl and boy as I approached the waiting area was amazing!  Keep pushing play and try a program out already!</p>
