Happy Thanksgiving teamRIPPED!!!
As you read this, I am finishing up a nice short week of work and preparing to enjoy a nice long weekend with the family. I can’t wait! I have so much to be thankful for, and I am sure that you do as well. Take a moment sometime in the next few days and reflect on the blessings in your life. It will do wonders to help you reset, refocus, and live purposefully.
One of the coolest things about Thanksgiving is that it’s EASY to eat healthy, even though the entire holiday centers around food. Just think about it — Turkey, green beans, salad — those are fat shredder staples! Just avoid the pies, gravy, and stuffing. No problem! I wrote an entire article Monday about a Fat Shredder Thanksgiving plan, so be sure to check that out as you prepare for the festivities.
We live in a culture where FOOD = FUN, and if we don’t load our bodies with complete crap, we are somehow depriving ourselves of fun or enjoyment. What a messed up mindset! But it’s real. Very real! Don’t believe me? Look at the little squabble I had with “Brendan” on Monday in regards to my Thanksgiving Fat shredder article. By suggesting that someone can be smart and enjoy a healthy Thanksgiving, “Brendan” flew off the handle and had quite a little hissy fit. Seriously people! I promise you CAN have fun, have a good time, and enjoy food without clogging your arteries and becoming a diabetic. Anyways, off my soapbox ….
A couple cool items of “news” this week that I want to share =
1) I turned 39. Yes, I’m now officially on the immediate countdown to 40. Dang, that’s old! However, I’m a little bit excited to see how ripped I can be on my 40th birthday, Nov 19th, 2013. I always thought 40 was OLD, but I’ve watched Tony Horton tearing it up at well over 50. 40 ain’t so old afterall! And while I would have always pictured myself at 40, being over the hill, it’s now my mission to look awesome at 40! I’ve got all the tools to do it. I just need to keep on doing what’s working! And don’t worry, I will :-)
2) We have ANOTHER monthly winner in the Beachbody Challenge — Chris W. This now makes 19 winners from our teamRIPPED family since the Beachbody challenge started just over a year ago. Wow!!!
Dang Chris, those results are insane!!! Congrats man! You deserved to win, cuz I know the hard work you put into that!
3) My P90X Results YouTube video is about to cross the 1 Million view mark. That’s crazy. Thank you all for watching it and sharing it. Honestly, it is probably how most of you found out about teamRIPPED. My video has gotten a great response over the past couple years, but I’ve never wanted it to end there. I’ve wanted it to inspire people to come see what teamRIPPED is all about, and then once they come check out teamRIPPED.com, I want it to be such a valuable resource of information and support that they will want to stay plugged in. And it’s definitely grown to more than I would have ever imagined. Thank you all!!!!
4) I will have some cool Black Friday / Cyber Monday deals for you, so be sure to check back Friday for full details. There will be some sale prices offered by Beachbody on workout programs like P90X, Turbo Fire, etc. I’ll have details and links for you to get in on the deals! They will start at 9 AM Pacific Time on Friday, so I’ll post links exactly at 9AM Friday.
Now, with these next few days, let me leave you with some words of wisdom — BE SMART, BE THANKFUL, BE DISCIPLINED, HAVE FUN, BE SAFE! And of course, keep pushing play!
Bring it!
And 2 favors that I ask:
1) If you like the hard work I put into writing my articles and videos, PLEASE help me out by sharing them. Click the share links below them and share them on FB, twitter, etc. It really helps me get more exposure and grow teamRIPPED!
2) Also, as always, remember that the way I benefit from being your coach is that I earn a commission from any Beachbody products that you purchase, as long as you buy them through my site, www.teamRIPPED.com, or by logging in to www.teambeachbody.com to do your shopping (If you buy from the plain beachbody site I get no credit). It helps with the amount of time I spend answering all your questions and helping you out. Thank you! I really appreciate it!
Keep bringing it and inspiring others to do the same gang!!
