What is P90?

https://melindabesinaiz.wufoo.com/forms/p90-test-group-application/



I am so excited for the newest Beach Body Home Fitness Program, P90 by none other than the amazing Tony Horton!!!!!  When I first heard that this program was coming out I was over the moon! Have you ever done P90X??? I have, and It is hard!!!  Have you ever tried P90X and failed?!?!  YOU ARE NOT ALONE, I did too! Maybe you want to work your way up to P90X but aren't quite ready to go all in with that amount of intensity right now. Maybe you want want a stepping stone to build a base level of fitness so that you can tackle something like P90X down the road.




Well, Tony saw the need for a program that was the foundational skills to advancing to a more extreme workout and he created P90! P90 is the gateway to getting fit regardless of one's age or fitness level! This program includes ten all-new workouts that are simple, doable, and less extreme than his others, but still just as effective. Whether a person hasn't worked out in a decade, or is just looking to maintain what they've got, P90 opens the door for customers to see dramatic, visible results in just 90 days.

Who would this program be perfect for?

  • You don't want a hardcore workout but you want to lose weight.
  • You want to get back some of the muscle tone you have lost over the years.
  • You want to just get out of bed in the morning without a backache.
  • If you are just someone who wants to be in good health, get regular exercise and feel strong then this could be the workout for you.
So what is this program all about?

It's not high intensity, its not pounding your joints.  It's literally simple cardio, simple workouts, 25  minutes a day for 90 days to totally and completely transform your body and your life. It's more than just a workout, it comes with a simple nutrition guide that is going to help you clean up your daily food intake and focus on the right foods to fuel your body for health!  The moves are modified right from day 1 so that everyone can do the workouts.

www.facebook.com/MelindaBesinaiz

So when will it be available?

Well the expected release date is September 23rd, 2014 through a Team Beachbody coach which is ME!  More info will be rolling out this week including details on
the workouts, the program, the options and the pricing.


Who should do P90?

Anyone who wants to get started on fitness no matter what age or ability.  I have talked to my Dad about this and he will be joining us for the entire workout.  My Dad is newly retired and he is not at the level where he wants to be doing push ups, pull ups and crazy plyometric jumps and lunges, but wants to stay active and improve on his health. This workout will be perfect for him.

I will also be doing P90!!   Right now I am 14 weeks pregnant, Yup I will be following along to this program while pregnant! I have consulted with my doctor, reviewed the info I have already and will work closely with her to make sure I am cleared for this workout. Obviously I'll have to make some modifications but this is a great way for me to be able to test out the program with my challengers and stay active so I have a healthy pregnancy and delivery. Although I LOVE T25 and Chalean Extreme those will be my programs of choice for AFTER baby comes :)

I believe that if you want to change your body, you want to start creating a healthy exercise routine then this is going to be the best way to do it.  Tony Horton is an amazing trainer with an entire team behind his workout philosophy that is tried, tested and true.

I know for a fact that this is truly going to be a spectacular workout.  I mean, heck you have SERIOUSLY no excuse not to workout.  There is something out there for everyone!  Sometimes we just need a little motivation in order to make it happen!

So what's the game plan?!?!
How Do I Make Sure I Am THE FIRST TO GET IT?!?!

I want to make sure that this doesn't become another fitness program that you invest in that sits on your shelf and collects dust.  I want to make sure that when you get the program in the mail, you bust it out, you make a plan and you SUCCEED!  My job as a coach is to be your support system, to help you to decipher the meal plan, to put a list of foods in place, to start together on October 6th and to track our progress, stay accountable, stay motivated and encourage one another to get into the best shape of our lives.

https://melindabesinaiz.wufoo.com/forms/p90-test-group-application/

Women's 21 Day Fix Results

21 day fix results, 21 day fix womens transformation, 21 day fix recipes, 21 day fix menu,
I met Kayla Michelis in early May of this year. We connected on Facebook by way of Pinterest...How cool is that?? Seriously I LOVE social media. It has brought some truly amazing people into my life!! But what we were chatting about was this new program called the 21 Day Fix. Kayla had purchased it and began her journey on her own, but was looking for a little more. She wanted that community environment where she could get support, accountability and really live her passion helping other challengers in the group. She was a little a head of the others since she started on her own so without further delay check out her story in her own words and help me congratulate her on her AMAZING transformation of 11 pounds and 7.5 inches in 21 days!!!
21 day fix results, 21 day fix womens transformation, 21 day fix recipes, 21 day fix menu,

"I started my fitness journey a little over a month an a half ago when I was at home playing with my kids. We were running around trying to catch butterflies, when I had to stop and catch my breath! I was embarrassed with myself and how out of shape I was. That's when I tool the stand and decided to commit myself to doing something to change it! That's when I saw a commercial for the 21day fix and I was sold! I ordered it! May 15th I started to program and hit it full forced! No cheating and never missed a workout! I also was introduced to shakeology and incorporated that into my daily meal plans! That was a game changer for me, no more cravings and feeling so much better on the inside! I stuck with everything for the full 21days and loved every minute of it! 2 1days later and I hit my first goal of losing 11lbs and a total of 7.5inches! I swear by this program working and have continued with it to this day!!

Not only has Kayla started to transform herself physically and mentally but she has also signed up to be a Beachbody coach to pay it forward and help others achieve the same! After speaking to Kayla a couple times I instantly knew that she was born do to this. She is a natural teacher and is SO very passionate about this she shares with others every opportunity she can get. Keep an eye out for this girl, she's going big places!!

If you are looking for support on your own health and weight loss journey I would love to connect and get you started. Please fill out the application below to be considered for our next 21 Day Fix accountability group!

T25 Chalean Extreme Week 2 Review


My hubby fixed my weights and I am one happy girl!! I have been craving my lifting workouts and now I'm back on track! Like I said last week I tend to do better with lifting heavy and not as much cardio so my plan this week included a bit of both and I feel like I had a good mix and am starting to get results.
I wanted to share something that I struggled with this week, my routine! Last week I was on point. 5am the alarm went off I jumped out of bed, drank my E&E and crushed my workouts. This week I still got up ok, drank my E&E but got started posting in my challenge groups, chatting with challengers and coaches on my team and didnt get my workout in until noon. As much as this is a part of my job and very important things for both them and me I need to stick to my schedule. So this coming week I'm not getting on the computer until 6am when I've completed my workout!

Week 2
Monday - Chalean Extreme Push Circuit 1
Tuesday - T25 Speed 1.0
Wednesday - Chalean Extreme Push Circuit 2
Thursday  - T25 Total Body Circuit
Friday - Chalean Extreme Push Circuit 3
Saturday - T25 Cardio
Sunday - Rest


Another thing I'd like to point out about this week is that I was starving!!! I noticed it mid afternoon on Monday right after my workout. I stuck to my meal plan, drank lots of water but was just plain hungry. As soon as this started I remembered that the same thing happened when I was doing Chalean Extreme over the summer. But I was prepared.


I had actually prepared some extras snacks Tuesday when I made my meals for the week so I just grabbed a couple hard boiled eggs for Salsa Boats or peppers and hummus and was good to go. I've been really focusing on drinking at least a gallon of water each day too. Yes, this sends me running for the nearest restroom lol, but I know it will stop soon as my body will get used to it. 



This time of year is a busy one for every one but in addition to the "normal" holiday festivities we have over 10 birthdays in our immediate family between October and December where we usually get together for dinner and celebrations. So it is crucial for me to plan ahead when I will have my cheat meals so that #1 I'm mentally prepared to stay strong and not cave when I'm faced with foods not on my meal plan and #2 I enjoy it and don't feel guilty about it. This year I have done something I've been trying to do for years but haven't actually successfully done and that's bringing or making my own meal while others are eating other food. This year for my mom's birthday we had Chinese food. And as much is that is one of my FAVORITE foods it was also during the week that I had 4 other dinners. So I just talked to her and said that I would be making my own dinner as it was important to me to be there to celebrate with her but it was also important for me to stay on track with my training and clean eating. She completely understood and supported me an no one even batted an eye!! So while they enjoyed their Chinese food I enjoyed my spaghetti squash and turkey meatballs (all homemade!)


My meal plan this week was very similar to last week as I am following the Eat Clean Diet Stripped plan. I have been participating in a 30 day challenge group as a challenger instead of a coach and it is so much fun! I've forgotten what it was like to be involved from this side and my fellow challengers are just awesome! We've been sharing some great recipes, motivating and cheering each other on!

I am half way through the Eat Clean Stripped challenge group and will be starting a new 21 day TEST challenge group, Healthy for the Holidays on December 2nd to continue on my journey. I'd LOVE to have you join me. If you are ready to get a jump start on your weight loss before the year is over check out the details here and contact me to get started!!

Clean Eating Tips

When people want to lose weight they are usually looking for a quick fix, a magic pill or a fancy gadget from an infomercial but the truth is that the only way to lose it AND keep it off is to make a lifestyle change. The first and most efficient lifestyle change that I’ve made is clean eating! I immediately stopped eating processed, boxed or frozen foods that were full of sodium, and ingredients that looked like they belonged in a science lab not on my food label. Clean eating is centered around natural, nutrient-dense foods that let your body run the way it’s supposed to.  Here are a few tips that are guaranteed to change both the way you feel and the way you look!



Don’t skip breakfast. The word itself tells you what its meant for…BREAK – FAST. Your body needs to start reving up for the day. You need to put fuel in your “car” if you want it to work for you all day. You need to set the tone for your metabolism. If you don’t feed it you’re basically telling it that you don’t need it to work too hard today and it wont!

Combine lean protein and complex carbs at each meal and eat 5-6 times a day. By combining these you are helping your body to maintain energy levels and decrease spikes in your blood sugar. This also helps you to stay fuller longer between meals and you’ll be less likely to continue snacking mindlessly on empty calories.  Some ideas might be an apple and 14 almonds, or veggies and hummus. Need a heavier meal? Try a stir fry using some low sodium chicken broth, veggies (carbs) and chicken (protein)! By eating every 2-3 hours you are also keeping your metabolism at a steady running state…you don’t want it dipping too low for too long which may cause you to overeat at your next meal because you’re starving!!
Keep clean snacks on hand. We ALL have crazy, crazy schedules. Whether it’s a work day and you’re tied to your desk all day or it’s the weekend and you’re running to the grocery store, kids sports and the dry cleaners you should always be prepared. Bring along a small cooler or just throw some things into your purse like a 100 calorie pack of almonds, an apple and low fat string cheese, a bottle of water and Shakeology in your shaker cup. Whatever you do just DON’T hit the drive thru!!

Drink. Water folks, I’m talking about WATER!! You should drink half of your weight in number of ounces each day…For example if you weigh 180 pounds you should be drinking AT LEAST 90 ounces of water each day. Is water not your thing? Try adding lemons, strawberries or other fruits. This will give it some flavor and you’ll also get the vitamins from the fruit!! If you’re feeling hungry mid-day, chug a big glass of water and see if that helps. Most times we think we’re hungry we’re really just thirsty.  

If you’re going to be drinking alcohol, make sure you have it scheduled in your meal plan. Alcohol packs on the calories but provides absolutely no nutritional value. It also causes you to make poor food choices later after you’ve had a few too many.

 
Make a weekly meal plan This has been a life saver for me and one of the fail proof methods to staying on track. I take some time out of my day on Sunday to create my meal plan for the week. This is for the whole family, I’m not running a restaurant. But the best part is that they usually don’t even know that these meals are “clean” because they are packed with flavor!! So once I have all my meals planed for the week I start my grocery list and head to the store. Once I’m home I get to work washing, chopping and prepping as many snacks and meals as I can so that during the week I can just grab and go. It’s a no brainer!! This also helps me when I get an urge to much on something. If I have my snacks already portioned, washed and ready to eat its so much more likely that I’ll grab that than some chips or cookies.

Watch your portions. Even if you’re eating very healthy and clean meals you can still over indulge. All food has calories and too many calories is still too many calories no matter what it is. So be mindful of your portion sizes, eat slow, drink water and really listen to your body. Are you REALLY hungry for seconds or is that just something you’re used to doing? Wait about 15 minutes, enjoy your company and then see. If you still need more, start with extra veggies.
Making a lifestyle change can be challenging but it’s definitely possible. And the best thing about it is that you don’t have to go it alone. I am here for you! I can help you make food choices that YOU like. You don’t have to eat something just because I do…there are SO many choices, the possibilities are endless. You can also make clean eating and meal planning a family affair rather easily. Most traditional “family dinners” have already been converted to a “clean recipe” somewhere and if we can’t find one then I’ll help you clean up your grandmas old family favorites!!  Get the family involved in the planning, shopping and prepping. The more you strike their curiosity and interest the more likely they’ll be willing to try!!

I would like to personally invite you to my next clean eating and Shakeology 30 day support group starting on October 21st. Join me in a closed group of other individuals who are looking to get on the right track with their food and nutrition. Get help with meal planning, meal and snack ideas, healthy recipes that are family friendly and quick and easy to prepare. And heck, even lose a few pounds before Thanksgiving!! If you are interested in the details of this group and would like to get signed up please send me a friend request on Facebook and shoot me a message that you’d like to join!!

Hip Hop Abs 6 Day Slim Down - Day 2


I FEEL GREAT!! I popped out of bed this morning full of energy! Went out to the garage for my morning weigh in and I'm already down ONE POUND!!! Now I know that it's most likely not going to continue at that rate of one pound per day but that's a great way to jump start this week. I'm certainly not complaining! Yesterday, Day 1 of the 6 Day Slim Down was so much fun that I couldn't wait to get started with today...





Today's scheduled work out is Total Body Burn - A head-to-toe workout that combines cardio with total body sculpting. So say good bye to any love handles, saddle bags, or jiggly arms! It's an extended calorie burn that will melt away fat, revealing a slimmer waist and tight, toned, sexy body!




This was a GREAT total body workout!! Tons of standing ab work. Shoulder and arms with the weights and push ups and legs were burnin with the squats! I was dripping with sweat 15 minutes into the workout. Again Shaun T walks you through the moves, reminding you to keep your core tight. He even keeps you laughing with the funny little things he says! If you don't have weights dont worry! You could even use soup cans...everyone in the video uses super light weights!

I love, love, LOVE the meals plans in this 6 day slim down plan because they are not much different than what I normally eat. I've tried other plans where you are eating nothing but celery or lemonade with Cayenne pepper and I was STARVING, lost some  weight but put it right back on PLUS some!! People, we CAN'T starve our bodies if we expect them to work for us!! FOOD IS FUEL!! You just need to make sure it's the right kind of fuel. We ALL know what happens when you pour sugar into a car's gas tank!! (P.S.if you dont know DON'T try it lol)

Day 2 Meal Plan


Breakfast - Creamy Berry Fusion
1 scoop Greenberry Shakeology
1/4 cup sliced strawberries
1/4 cup Almond Milk
1/2 cup water
Ice & Blend

AM Snack - Swiss and Roast Beef Roll-Up (I'm using turkey)
4 oz lean deli-style sliced Roast Beef
1 oz low-fat Swiss cheese slices
Dab of mustard (Yellow, whole grain or Dijon)

Layer and roll together. ENJOY!




Lunch - Tuna Garden Salad
4 oz Water-packed white tuna, drained and flaked with a fork
1-1/2 Cups chopped romaine lettuce
1/2 cup chopped broccoli
1/2 cup chopped cauliflower
4 cherry tomatoes sliced
1-2 Tbsp red wine vinaigrette

Toss ingredients together and dig in!

PM Snack - Go Nuts
15-20 raw almonds or walnut halves


 Dinner - Chicken Delight
4 oz skinless chicken breast
2 Garlic cloves
1 tsp chopped rosemary
Salt and pepper (to taste)
Cooking spray
2 Cups spinach or broccoli
Seasoning medley, to taste (Mrs. Dash, Lawry's Emeril's Essence, etc)

Preheat oven to 375
Lightly mist a large piece of aluminum foil with cooking spray
Assemble chicken, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper in the center, and wrap tightly in a pouch
Cook for 20 minutes or until cooked through
Steam spinach or broccoli until tender then drain and sprinkle with seasoning.

I know its only day 2 but I am SO glad that I've started this plan. I was in a little bit of a funk and this definitely lifted me out of it and got me right back on track. I know it can be frustrating to start a workout routine or healthy eating plan and not see results right away, but this is definitely working for me!! Stay tuned for Day 3!!!

If you have any questions about this 6 Day Slim Down plan, Hip Hop Abs program or anything health and fitness related, I'd love to chat!! Find me on Facebook!!

Hip Hop Abs 6-Day Slim Down Day 1

So my workouts have been a little off track and all over the place and that's not something I am proud of, but something I feel I need to be honest about. Yes I am a Beachbody Coach, but I am also HUMAN! And I also face all the the struggles, challenges and set-backs that each and every one of you face as well. So instead of continuing to go down this path of "whatever" I've decided to get back on track starting with the Hip Hop Abs -6 Day Slim Down plan.


The Shaun T Dance Party Challenge Pack (Hip Hop Abs, Rockin Body and a 30 day supply of Shakeology) is on sale this month so I thought I'd take advantage of the deal and give it a try before my next challenge group starts Monday September 30th. Not only does this program come with 6 workouts but also a nutrition guide, 6 day slim down guide with a ton of recipes, dining out guide, calendar to check off your workouts and a tape measure to track your progress!! I'm going to jump start this week with the 6 Day Slim Down Plan...what's that? I'm glad you asked!!

 Each day the workout and the meal plan is laid out for you!! NO BRAINER, YAY!!! And what I like about this meal plan is that you eat REAL food, NO starvation and its pretty basic stuff. No fancy schmancy ingredients or foods you can't find at the local grocery store.


Day 1 - Fat Burning Cardio. To tell you the truth I thought, Ok...dancing, this is going to be fun but am I REALLY going to get a workout? I mean I know its not Insanity but at least wanted to feel a good burn. And I can honestly say I DID! I felt my abs working from the start and they were actually a little sore by the end of the 30 minute workout. Shaun walks you through the moves step by step and then you build on each routine and speed things up a little bit at the end. Tania is also there to modify the moves if you need to go at a slower pace.He also continues to remind you through the video to keep your core and your abs engaged. This workout had great music, I could keep up with the moves, had a nice little sparkle of sweat and it was over before I knew it. 30 minutes was PERFECT to fit in my busy schedule!

Check out the yummy meal plan...

Breakfast - Coco Loco
1 scoop Chocolate Shakeology
1/2 banana
1 cup coconut water
Ice & Blend

AM Snack - Go Nuts
15-20 raw almonds or walnuts

Lunch - Lean, Mean Salad
1 cup fresh mixed greens
1/4 cup chopped cucumber
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1-2 tbsp red wine vinaigrette
4 oz roasted turkey breast
Toss and dig in!

PM Snack - Cottage cheese & Strawberries
4 oz low-fat cottage cheese
3/4 cup sliced strawberries


Dinner - Fish with Flava (I'm subbing chicken)
4oz fish (halibut, cod, red snapper or turbot)
2 Tbsp water
1/4 tomato chopped
1/2 shallot finely chopped
1 tsp chopped garlic
1/4 tsp thyme
juice of 1/2 lemon
Salt and pepper (to taste)
2 cups asparagus pieces

Preheat oven to 450 (375 for chicken)
Place fish (chicken) on a large piece of aluminum foil with 2 tbsp water (to provide steam).
Top with tomato, shallot, garlic, thyme lemon juice, sale and pepper
Wrap tightly into a pouch and place on baking sheet
Bake for 15-20 minutes.
Steam the asparagus and serve with fish (chicken)

Late Snack - T-Time
1 cup caffeine free herbal tea
Add a lemon or orange wedge if you wish

Can't wait for tomorrow!! Check back for all the details and progress

Lean Out For Labor Day




WOO WEEE!! This has been a crazy good start to the month!! I have three challenge groups busting at the seams with challengers reporting pounds and inches lost like crazy!! And more people are wanting in....so due to popular demand I will be opening the LAST challenge group for July starting Monday July 29th. Let's work together and LEAN OUT FOR LABOR DAY!!









What is a challenge group? How about AWESOME SAUCE!!! A group of like minded individuals all on a health and fitness journey who work hard and cheer each other on, pick their teammates up when they fall and pat them on the back when they succeed!! People working hard to get in shape, get healthy, get off insulin or other medications. People who know that it is up to THEM to make sure they are healthy and around for their kids and grand kids.

 I'm just here to motivate you daily, help you with meal planning, help teach you how to do all of this while traveling or hosting parties but most of all I'm here to SUPPORT you on this journey!! I LOVE watching YOU succeed because I WAS THERE!! I know when enough is enough. I know how hard it is to wake up and work out when your baby has been up crying all night. I know what its like to work all day and not want to work out but I also know how amazing you are about to feel! The HUGE smile that's going to cross your face when you need to go shopping for new pants ever couple weeks. The warm fuzzy feeling you're going to get when someone says "Hey you look great, what are you doing?"and I'm here to make sure YOU get the results you want to achieve. 

My goal is to help you kick the excuses, end emotional eating, arm you with the tools to be successful and teach you how to make it a lifestyle and not a crash diet.  It's a kid tested and husband approved approach to weight loss and living a healthy and fulfilling life!  My mission is to set you up with a fitness program that is not too easy and not too hard but just right for your ability level. Then, I create a customized meal plan WITH you so that you can learn how to plan out your meals, prepare healthy snacks, give you recipes, tips, motivation and accountability to start and complete a fitness program!  I call it a challenge group, but it's not a competition to see who can win or lose the most weight but yet it's an accountability group.  It's a place that you can feel safe, you can feel comfortable talking about your struggles and triumphs, where you won't be judged for making a mistake instead we encourage you and  celebrate all the victories along the way!
  
  This last group will begin on July 29th.  The requirements are that I am YOUR coach!  I will help you choose a fitness program to meet your needs plus you are required to replace 1 meal a day with Shakeology for the duration of the challenge.  The challenge is 60 days long!  Then, I will add you to the accountability group where we will set goals, track our progress, make your meal plan, teach you how to prepare healthy snacks, I will give you recipes and more!!  We will track our progress at the 30 and 60 day mark and make any changes at that time to the plan!






 So yes, I'm sure you stopped at the Shakeology and said, heck no I don't do shakes or you said I don't want to be dependent on a shake to lose weight right! Well I was the exact same way.  Let me tell you I was so surprised at the difference Shakeology made in the way I felt!  Clearly I wasn't eating the recommended daily veggies or even getting enough of the vitamins and minerals from my foods that I was eating.  When I added in Shakeology (not a protein shake but a complete all natural nutrient dense meal) I stopped having cravings for sweets, I was making better choices vs the drive thru, I had energy naturally minus caffeine and I was truly pushing harder in my workouts because I was getting nutrition so my body could function properly!  
  If you've been on the fence about T25 I suggest you jump on board now because starting August 1st you will NO LONGER be able to get it at the sale price. But if not T25 no worries, this group will be open to challengers who are interested in any Beachbody program out there! I will work with you one on one to make sure we find the perfect fit. Space is limited so when the group fills up then you will go on the waiting list for the following months group! If you're ready to jump in full force fill out the challenge group application and let's get started today!!
