Stephanie Becomes Fitness Model After P90X!

February 9, 2013 By

Can you really just pin up a few pictures on a “vision board” and turn your life around? I mean, doing P90X gets you ripped, but it doesn’t make you a Ms. Fitness USA finalist–or does it?

Ask Stephanie Diehl, because she did exactly that!

For much of her life prior to 2007, time passed without meaning. She didn’t care about a lot. Her body fat percentage was at 28%, self-esteem needed a boost and even if she wanted to change she couldn’t imagine having a plan to get her there.

Until she walked passed an Oxygen Magazine, a magazine dedicated to women’s fitness and training. “I’d love to look like THAT,” she remembers saying to herself as she flipped through page after page of fit and healthy women. And then the P90X infomercial comes on TV…and the rest is history!

 

Check out her accomplishments:

* 2008 Ms Fitness USA finals
* 2010 NPC Rocky Mountain
* can do one-arm pushups, L-holds and straddle holds (moves you usually only see olympic athletes do!)

The desire to change became so great that in nine months she dropped 30 lbs and got her body fat down to an amazing 12%!!!!

She admits it wasn’t always easy. Stephanie thanks her coach for recommending Shakeology to support her nutrition and is infinitely grateful for the encouragement. She feels alive again and walks through life with super confidence. Way to go, Steph!

 

1) What were your before/after stats (weight/bodyfat)?
Before: 162lbs, about 28% body fat.
After: 133lbs, about 12% body fat.

What exercise program(s) did you use and in what time frame?
I used P90X to help me get into amazing shape and prepare for the Ms. Fitness USA Finals for 2008.  It took me about 9 months to go from my before photo to my after photo and compete at Nationals.   P90X helped me succeed at difficult skills like one arm push ups, L-holds, and straddle holds that were done in my fitness routine.  P90X also help me increase my endurance!  I got to do things I never thought I could do athletically and it really was because of what I was being challenged with in P90X.  I continued to with P90X for my competitions.  2010 NPC Rocky Mountain I came in the best shape of my life I P90X plyo helped me condition for it.  I came in at the Rocky at 140 #  and I was a ROCK :)

2) What your life was like before and how it has changed/improved?

I felt horrible about myself before I decided to commit to myself with P90X. Looking at my self in the mirror was not a great experience.  I had very little self esteem. I felt worthless inside. I was tired all the time and like I was just existing from day to day.  Life was bland. One day I picked up an Oxygen Magazine.  I was inspired by the fit and healthy women that were in there.  I wanted to be like them but had no idea how to do it.  I then saw a P90X commercial.  At first it seemed a little extreme for me and I certainly struggled with it but I didn’t give up.  I wanted to change my life.  I wanted to live life to the fullest and I just wasn’t accomplishing that living the sedentary life I was living, I went from wanting to be like those fitness models to actually being a fitness model! Now I LOVE having a high level of fitness. I can climb stairs with out feeling winded.  I can do all the thing that I wanted to but was physically hindered before I took back my fitness. Running, jogging, lifting heavy things that I normally would not have thought I could really gives me confidence.  I AM living life to the fullest.  The coolest part is my fitness transfers into all areas of my life.  I have more self-confidence, more energy, I like who I see in the mirror.  When I am faced with a challenge I remember all the thing I have accomplished that I never thought I could and I go take it on.

3) How has the support of a coach and this team helped you?

I could not have done any of that with out the help and support of a coach.  I didn’t have a clue how to make my fitness dreams a reality. My coach helped show me the way, encouraged me, held me accountable and was always there for me.  Having a coach was a vital part of my success.  I am so grateful that Beachbody  has this.  It helps so many people , and motivates them.  When I didn’t believe in myself, my coach did and that was enough to keep pushing play.

4) Besides the support of a coach & team, what was the key to your success?

Nutrition!  Eating right!  I can workout all day long, but if I wanted to accomplish the goal I had set I HAD to eat right.  Shakeology is an important part of eating right.  Truth be told I didn’t know how to eat right.  I learned how plan my meals.  I had never done this before.  Taking the time to prepare my food in advance of my busy schedule made a difference.

5) What tips would you give to someone who is new and starting out?

Don’t give up on yourself.  Beachbody has all the tools you need to succeed.  Great workouts, amazing supplements including shakeology and a wonderful support system.  That is a perfect recipe for success.  All you need to do is take advantage of it!  Be engaged!  If you keep pushing play you will succeed.  YOU WILL!  I think joining a challenge group is one of the best ways you can stay motivated.  There you have a group of people all doing the same thing you are.  As a group you motivate each other.  I also like making Dream Boards or Vision Boards.  Creating something that represents your fitness goals helps me to stay focused on why I am doing one more push up when I want to quit, or passing on eating that brownie in the office.  I really believe in Beachbody.  I am also grateful for the opportunity I have to help others succeed at their fitness goals.  I think that helping others as a coach helps me try a little harder with each workout.  PLUS I think there is power when you are thinking/helping other people.  Everyone benefits from this system.

Richard loses 50 lbs on the Hybrid!

January 25, 2013 By

 

Fast food, microwaveable snacks and sodas…yummy!!

That’s what Richard Laureano-El ate during his early twenties. But there is only so much the human body can take and Richard’s body began to give out. With his weight reaching a high 235 lbs, he made it a mission to stop eating bad food and take on a healthier way. He hit the gym and was on a pristine diet–he was winning!

Or was he?

In a few months, he began to slip back into his old ways and cycled on and off the healthy eating and exercising. It wasn’t what he wanted. Richard fell off his horse, but was determined to kick things back into gear. He discovered P90X and stuck with the 90 days of intense workouts. Got his weight down to 195!!!

As the passion to stay lean grew even more, he finished the program and moved right into the next one: Insanity Asylum. If that wasn’t tough enough, he combined both programs to form the Asylum/P90X hybrid. Here he lost 10 lbs more and dropped his body fat to athletic levels, while building some powerful muscles. He has his coach to thank for the support and Shakeology to thank for his nutrition.

Way to go, Richard!!!

Check out his Insanity Asylum Results video below:

1) What workouts have you done and what was the time frame for your transformation?

Insanity Asylum for one month and then Asylum/P90X Hybrid.

2) What were your before/after stats (weight/bodyfat)?

Day 1: 195 lbs, 14% BF (body fat)
Day 30: 180 lbs 11% BF
Day 60: 185 lbs 9% BF

3) What your life was like before and how it has changed/improved?

I was always athletic, healthy and very energetic. It was around my mid 20’s when things started to move downhill. From the age of 24 to about 27 I was eating lots of processed foods and fast foods so I started to gain unwanted pounds and became less active in the process. I did not like the feeling of being fatigued.
I first became health conscious around the age 28 and it’s been a bumpy road up until my commitment to the Asylum. When I was 28, I was at my heaviest: 238 pounds. I was tired of being overweight and uncomfortable. I started searching for ways to lose weight and better my overall health.
I stumbled upon herbal colon cleanse. I thought I’d give it a try since I was experiencing bloating and fatigue. I lost 20 lbs my first week on the cleanse and about 30 lbs that entire month. I felt like a new person! My energy was returning. I started exercising–mostly push ups and dumbbell curls.
From the age 29 to modern times I would workout and eat healthy foods regularly. I joined gyms, bought programs, ran on treadmills…I even lifted heavy weights. But it would only last for a span of 2 months at a time. I got some decent results each time but i would lose the results soon after due to lack of exercise and poor eating habits
For the next few months now I’m right back where I started. That was the vicious cycle I had to break in order to succeed and reach my goal of being lean. With hard work, eventually I got back down to 190 lbs.
This time it would be different. This is when I decided its time for change on a major
scale–something a little more permanent. So I started to research and I came across some success stories/testimonies and was moved by Zander Jepsen’s story. Then I made him my coach and got committed to the Asylum…a decision that would change my life forever…

4) How has the support of a coach and this team helped you?

This the team has inspired me through the whole process and my coach, Zander Jepsen, he was a great help to me. I wouldn’t be where I am today if it wasn’t for his support!

5) Besides the support of a coach & team, what was the key to your success?

The key to my success was mental focus and good nutrition. Those are the two things that are absolutely necessary to achieve dramatic results.

6) What tips would you give to someone who is new and starting out?

Take it one day at a time. Remember each day is a new beginning. So I’d say give it your all each day and stay on top of your nutrition and at the end of your journey you will see your reward!

-Have a blessed day!

Dan Makes Diabetes Disappear!

January 25, 2013 By

What do you do when death’s bony finger singles you out, “You’re next, Dan.” Not the spotlight you want to be in!

During his life, Dan Vukmirovich lost his grandfather to Type 2 diabetes. Then his father. Ouch.

It’s a wake up call to see this family pattern. Dan’s own health was a runaway car, hurtling to the same destination: diabetesville. Two years after his father’s passing, he saw himself in the mirror and discovered a shocking truth: he was becoming his dad. But great things have small beginnings. With a seemingly harmless shift in his thinking, Dan worked hard to fix his health in a matter of months. At first, the effort was so great and results unimpressive that he almost quit.

But he’d come too far to throw it all away. If he quit, he knew what was waiting for him. Dan sought support from a BeachBody coach. His results skyrocketed and he regained super confidence. While exercising, he burned off a whopping 20lbs and got his body fat to an amazing 7.6%… can you say gladiator status!

Today, his results rival the fitness level of any testosterone raging teenager! Can you do 16 pull-ups (non-stop)? If you ask Dan what his biggest problem in life is today, he says, “Not diabetes!!!!”

Check out his P90X Results video below:

You can visit Dan at his website:  http://www.letsgo-fitness.com/

 

1) What were your before/after stats (weight/body fat)?
Before: 167lbs, about 23.7% body fat.
After: 148lbs, about 7.6% body fat.

2) What your life was like before and how it has changed/improved?

My father (and grandfather) had both passed due to complications from type 2 diabetes.  I was heading down the same path, as my condition could have been described as “diabesity” – skinny fat, where I didn’t look too fat with clothes on, but without my shirt, my body told a different story.  Since I changed my main habits of eating and drinking Shakeology, my energy is easily double of what it used to be.  I don’t crave food like I used to.  I feel like my core strength has drastically improved so that I’m functionally more fit.  Back strains were common in my past, but NO LONGER!

3) How has the support of a coach and this team helped you?

The coaching and team have made all the difference in my pushing myself harder.  Case in point, I saw David Ingram post about how many reps of a certain move in P90X2, the next time I did that move, I tried to beat him.  The accountability I’ve had with my nutrition has been the biggest improvement.  Really watching my calories and learning to eat properly allowed me to transform my body and my overall health.

4) Besides the support of a coach & team, what was the key to your success?

DIALING IN NUTRITION was key to my success.  I had done both P90X and Insanity prior to really working on nutrition with my coach.  Once I fixed this, I was able to get the success I was looking for.

5) What tips would you give to someone who is new and starting out?

My advice would be to LISTEN to your coach when he/she says that nutrition is 70% of the equation:

  • modify moves in the beginning until you are able to do them (I couldn’t do 2 real pull-ups when I started, now I can do 16 in a row)
  • doing this with others makes all the difference.  I tried it alone at first, but got great results once I connected with others.”

David’s Bodybeast Results!

October 9, 2012 By

Welcome to my Body Beast Results blog!

I haven’t been this excited about a new workout since…… P90X2, Asylum and P90X. Okay, so maybe Beachbody makes incredible workouts but seriously, this one is AWESOME. And what makes it different than ALL the OTHERS is that it’s purely designed for building muscle and gaining mass with minimal equipment! You don’t need a gym full of olympic-sized weights, squat rats, leg presses and bench presses.

You can learn more about the Body beast workout by checking out my Bodybeast article. Here I’m going to share my results from doing Body Beast for 90 days.

Can you really gain 10 lbs of muscle in 90 days?

The Bodybeast program claims that you can gain 10 lbs of muscle 90 days. Is that what I experienced? NO! I gained 10 lbs of muscle in 60 days! HAHA.. what I mean is that the first 2 phases of the Beast program are designed to add the mass. For the last 30 days, you’re actually ‘cutting’ the bodyfat by reducing calories and increasing cardio again. So while you gain bodyfat while gaining muscle during the first 2 phases, the goal is to have you back near your starting bodyfat at the end of 90 days, but with 10 lbs more of muscle.

 

So how were my Bodybeast Results? See for your self:

Body beast Results - David Ingram - 90 Results round 1

Click to view full size

 

I’ve been told that my results are AMAZING and I’ve been asked by Beachbody to submit my photos to be potentially included in their infomercial.  But I can tell you that I am THRILLED with my results. I’ve worked out at the gym in years past and and I’ve NEVER gotten results like this in just 2-3 months!  Body beast is a world class program and it is VERY well designed — between the dynamic set training in the workouts to the nutrition plan. I’ve never gotten a pump in the muscles like this before!

And that’s why I’m moving right on to ROUND 2 !!!

5 Keys to My success:

A lot of people have been asking me for tips on how I got these kind of results. It really boils down to 4 things:

1) Embrace the nutrition guide and Track what you eat!

The Beast Book is one of the BEST I’ve seen for nutrition and it’s designed 100% to gain mass. Even the calorie recommendations take into account your BODYFAT. That’s the first workout I’ve seen that does this. I was a little skeptical about adhering to 25% protein / 50% carbs / 25% fat but I did and WOW, it worked well. I use Myfitnesspal.com and the iPhone app (with the bar-code scanner) to easily track what I eat each day. When it comes to building muscle, Sagi says nutrition is 100% of the equation. If you don’t eat enough, you WILL NOT gain mass!

2) Join our Support Group! 

I host a Body Beast Challenge group on Facebook called “The Beast up Crew!” and we have a Voxer voice chat group. It’s a lot of fun to be doing this with others who know what you’re going through. We share meal ideas, supplement experience, progress photos and tips to encourage and push each other. You’re welcomed to join us! Sign up with a free team beachbody account with me as your coach and then join our Facebook group here.

3) Track your Workout progress

Using tracking sheets is a MUST during Bodybeast. There were many workouts where I increased just 5 lbs on a set but over 12-15 reps, that’s a lot more weight. If I didn’t have my tracking sheets to refer back to, I would have not been able to push myself a little more each workout. A friend of mine made some new tracking sheets that allow you to track 6 weeks worth of progress on each sheet. MUCH better than printing out 6 new Beachbody tracking sheets each week. Here is the Build Phase Tracking sheet and the Bulk Phase Tracking sheet.

4) Develop Mental Toughness 

Gaining mass is NOT easy. It requires you to EAT more than you think you need. It requires you to push your muscles to the point of exhaustion! When your body says “stop!”, You have to say “NO! Keep going” until you have safely exhausted the muscle. THEN you will see growth. I’ve never felt my muscles burn like this before so I had to really learn to “embrace the burn” !

5) Take your Supplements! 

Do you really think you’re going to grow 10 lbs of muscle in 90 days without Supplements?  There are 6 supplements I took the entire 90 days. Shakeology (not required to build muscle, I take it to be healthy), Cellcor C4 as my pre-workout (see my review here) and these 4 Beast Supplements:

 

Beachbody Hardcore Base Shake  - it’s a high quality whey protein plus digestive enzymes to help enhance protein utilization and reduce gas and bloating. I have this post-workout with the Beachbody Base Shake and Creatine. (see below).

Beachbody Fuel Shot - it instantly triggers an insulin response with its high glycemic index (GI), for more energy and faster recovery during and after workouts. It also has vital electrolytes to keep you hydrated and supports muscle mass growth with a higher calorie load than just P90X Results & Recovery Drink. You’re supposed to actually combine this with the BasesShake for your POST-workout recovery.

Beachbody MAX Creatine - Bodybeast recommends 10 grams of creatine daily. Why? It supports an increase in strength, muscle recovery, and muscle mass. I have 5g in the morning with my Shakeology and 5g in my post workout shake.

Beachbody Super Suma - THIS is the game changer! It helps enhance testosterone production and it supports protein synthesis for faster muscle repair. I have 1 pill in the morning with my Shakeology and 1 mid-after noon with water.

Marine Jake’s Awesome P90X Transformation

May 15, 2012 By

Have you ever been devastated by something that happened in your life and you stopped caring about your body and let things slide for too long? After Jake’s wife left him and his 5 month old son behind, he turned to booze and eating to soothe the pain. He gained over 30 lbs and when he hit rock bottom, he decided to give P90X a try. As a former marine, he had learned discipline and he applied that dedication to P90X. He not only gave it all he had in the workouts, he took time to learn about nutrition and nailed it! He loves Shakeology and that is a big part of his P90X nutrition plan.

I’m so thrilled to Jacob on our team! His transformation is amazing and he’s an amazing guy as well. He’s now coaching and help other people to change their lives!

Check out Jake’s Inspirational transformation video he recently published!

 

Visit him at his website Jake’s Fit Club

Jake's Before an and After

Happy and Healthy !

 

IN HIS OWN WORDS:
When I moved out on my own I let bad habits run rampant in my life.  I went from skinny to decently built through the Marine Corps but as the years went on, and I got married and had a child I let my health slip.  When my ex wife had an affair and signed off parental rights I let exercise and nutrition take a backseat to video games and alcohol.

My primary focus was my son, and I never let my bad habits effect that, but I was lacking the energy to be a “great” dad like he deserved.  My weight was steadily climbing, one year it reached just under 200 lbs.  I started hitting the gym and starving myself but I never really got it under control and I would always end up right back to where I started.

The day I said ENOUGH WAS ENOUGH was when I was watching Rocky (the new one) with my girlfriend Adriana and my son Trent.  There was a motivational moment in the film where Rocky said “You, me or nobody, is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard you hit… It’s about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. how much you can take, and keep moving forward. That´s how winning is done! Now, if you know what you’re worth, go out and get what you worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits. And not pointing fingers saying, You ain´t what you wanna be because of him or her or anybody. ”

I looked at her, I looked at myself, I looked at my son, as we all sat there eating Taco Bell.  Seeing my son sip down a Baja Blast Mountain Dew.  I felt sick… Something arose within me, I was DONE being unhealthy. I was DONE saying I’d start changing my life tomorrow but never doing it.  I was DONE blowing my money on fast food and being a bad example tomy son.

We have a gym at our apartment complex and we figured if we could just find a routine that showed us how to work out properly we could get things going.  After some google searching on personal trainer routines P90X came up.  We looked over the program, saw the testimonials online and decided to commit to it.

My life before P90X was a haze of fast food, laziness, and wanting to get healthy but not knowing where to begin.  I barely had enough energy or the desire to do anything with my son outdoors.  Now that I’ve completed the program (twice) and am currently about to hit one year working out with Beachbody programs, my life is incredible.  My body is more fit than it’s EVER been and I can’t remember the last time I had this much energy.

I still don’t recognize myself in the mirror.  My confidence levels are through the roof! Life is SO much better now.  It makes me sad to think that for the last 8 or so years, I’ve been putting all of that junk into my body.  I’m glad that I too control now before it got worse.

What was it like having a coach and being a part of our team?
One of the most important aspects of my transformation, and why I’ve been able to commit my life to healthy eating and exercise, is the support of my coach and the online community as being part of his team provides.  I received tons of good information about nutrition that really helped me maximize my efforts, and going online to check in with the community is FUN. I can post what workouts I’ve been doing, the progress I’m making, videos and pictures etc.  It turns Facebook into something productive, inspiring, and encouraging.  Support is truly the winning element when combined with fitness and nutrition.

Committing to a healthy lifestyle is so much fun when you share it with others, and I feel just so blessed to be a part of it.  My life is forever changed!

Kevin does P90X to enjoy life in Hawaii!

January 8, 2012 By

Another amazing P90X success story for our team! Kevin lives in beautiful Hawaii but was spending most days in-doors, playing video games and participating in ‘eating contests’. He didn’t have the energy to get out and enjoy the outdoors. Well, he decided that he HAD enough and got into P90X. You can see from his results already, he’s had a HUGE change in his body.

We love having Kevin on our team because of his enthusiasm and positive attitude. He always contributes something positive to team!

Best of all, he has the energy now to get outdoors and enjoy himself!  He just told me that he is pursuing his dream of learning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu!  Kevin represents what this team is all about, CHANGING…YOUR…LIFE…!

Read his story below.

Kevin Phan P90X Results 3.5 - 4 months total

 

In his own words:

1. My life before was everything but active or as happy as I am now. I used to just wake up and think about playing games, wait for my friends to call to go get fast food and see how many eating contest I could join.

Now after the changes, I find myself wanting to push harder and better myself. I want to see just how healthy I can get. Now instead of waking up and thinking of playing games, I wake up with the idea of working out and trying to get out, go hiking or now a days wanting to go surfing. Which I would have never done without this.

2. The support of a coach is something I think everyone should look into. Without David and without this team, I would have got up on so many mornings saying the same thing “Eh I can wait another day before working out.” But with the support of a team like this, it gets me pumped seeing how far people can bring it and how people can change and do things they never thought they could!

Insanity Asylum Results

August 16, 2011 By

Welcome to my Insanity Asylum Results blog!

Thanks for visiting! Make sure to sign up for a FREE Team Beachbody Account to get support and to gain access to free tools to help you with your health & fitness goals.

Below you’ll find my results with Insanity Asylum as I’ve now completed 30 and 60 days!  I can say now that this is one of the funnest workouts I’ve done. It’s like a cross between P90X and Insanity. I love the intensity and love the variety. It introduces new moves and new ways to challenge your body. The new “Back to Core” is amazing! I’ve never had such a burn in my back muscles before.

Feel free to leave a comment below or on Facebook – I’d be happy to answer any questions! After sharing my results, I’ve been getting a lot of questions about what nutrition plan I followed. You can find that below!

 

Update: I’ve completed 60 days and have put together a video showing my Insanity Asylum Results:

 

Insanity Asylum Results – 30 Days:

Well, I just completed my first 30 days of Insanity Asylum and I’m very happy with the results. What makes this a little unique is that I am competing in a contest with my upline beachbody coach (Joel) from Xcellent Fitness and it’s our team vs. Team Ripped. Beachbody is sponsoring the competition and will be selecting the top 10 results from both teams and declaring a winning team. From what I hear, winners will be featured on Beachbody’s website and in the Insanity Asylum infomercials!  I’m very happy with my results!

UPDATE: Insanity Asylum Results – 60 Days:

After taking a break after the first 30 days of Asylum, I got back into it and did a second round of 30 days. This time, I followed the Asylum & P90X Hybrid schedule.  I followed the same nutrition plan for this 2nd round and i’m very happy with my results!

I was skeptical of the price at first so I decided to try it out using the 30 day-money back guarantee. I’ve been on it every day since.  In fact, it’s now one of only 2 Beachbody supplements that I recommend. To me, it’s WORTH IT but you’ll have to decide that for yourself. It’s basically a high quality meal replacement unlike anything else. It will help you lose that body fat and give you energy. Why? Because it contains 70 of the healthiest nutrients in the world. It improves your digestive system, removes toxins, lowers cholesterol, helps you to lose fat and improve energy levels, hair, nails and skin. I have this every day for breakfast. It comes out to $4/day but if you order Shakeology from this site, I’ll coach you for free.

Bodybuilding.com Features David’s Transformation!

May 20, 2011 By

David Ingram on Bodybuilding.com

In a very surreal moment, after 4 months of waiting, I was informed that my transformation was being featured on Bodybuilding.com!!

For years I have read the forums on Bodybuilding.com and have been educated and inspired. It’s crazy to think that I am being featured on their site and inspiring so many now.

The only negative in the whole situation is that they removed any mention to P90X, Shakeology and Beachbody! I guess they feel threatened! :)

Check out the excellent article they put together here: David Ingram on Bodybuilding.com

They also posted it to their Facebook page here: David Ingram on Bodybuilding.com’s Facebook page.
