Hey teamRIPPED!!
We are over a week into the Misfit Challenge, and while we had a few decide it wasn’t for them, those who have stuck around are more fired up than ever. They are seeing physical changes already, and their mental focus and enthusiasm is through the roof! I’m so proud of these guys and gals! Keep it up! We had to thin down the ranks of the Misfits this weekend to get rid of those who weren’t serious about plugging in and staying accountable DAILY. We cut 70 peeps from the group after warning for days that this is serious and that cuts were coming if they wouldn’t commit to plugging in! So I was sad to have to cut ties and remove them from the challenge, but the 180 Misfits who made the cut have stepped up to the plate with daily accountability to log their workouts and nutrition are now more focused and unified than ever. They know they’ve earned their spot in this group, and that there are expectations if they want to stay on this amazing ride! Look out teamRIPPED nation because these 180 Misfits have made the grade, and I’m betting on them to blow you away in 80 more days!

I got to spend the weekend in California at a Beachbody leadership event. I had a great time. I didn’t take many pics, but here’s one from a morning workout I did with some folks you may recognize (my buddies and fellow Beachbody coaches Josh Spencer, Billy Hodges, and Chris Balmert):
If you didn’t see my article yesterday, be sure you read that to learn about the exciting things coming up in the next couple months from Beachbody. There is some great stuff in the pipeline!
I’m super thrilled that the Tropical Shakeology will be vegan, as that coincides perfectly with our vegan challenge. Those of us choosing to stay either totally vegan or partly vegan will have the option to do so and still use Shakeology every day.
And the new Body Pump workout looks awesome. It won’t be for everyone. It’s designed to be a workout for sculpting muscle and burning off any body fat that is currently hiding that muscle, but it’s not for building size. The super high reps with lighter weights aren’t ideal for building mass, but it will burn calories and sculpt your physique like you wouldn’t believe. Those of you wanting to build size will be better off with P90X2. But if you are looking for a home-based version of the worldwide “Body Pump” phenomenon, this is the ticket. Beachbody got the world’s best Body Pump trainers to lead these workouts. I can’t wait to try it. Some barbell work will make a fun change-of pace to the workouts I’ve been doing with dumbbells.
The Tai Cheng workout isn’t exactly my cup of tea, but it fills a big need in the product lineup and some of you may know people who this workout would be perfect for. It’s a low impact workout that helps with balance, coordination, and learning to tune in with your body.
And of course the buzz is all about P90X2 — it’s looking like it will be by far the biggest new product launch in the history of the company. I can’t wait! I got to visit with Joel S. (of team Xcellent Fitness) as we make plans for the ultimate rematch with P90X2. We got the best of him in the Asylum Challenge, but he’s back for more and we’ll be ready to throw down again in the P90X2 Challenge! I can’t wait!
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!!
