6 Weeks of THE WORK - A New Workout Program from Celebrity Trainer Amoila Cesar

6 Weeks of THE WORK All You Need to Know, Beachbody THE WORK VIP Early Access, 6 Weeks of THE WORK Online Group, Beachbody on Demand Free Trial, Arnel Banawa, About Amoila Cesar, Beachbody Coach Arnel, Get Shakeology Samples


Are you ready for Beachbody's Newest Workout Program?

6 Weeks of THE WORK was developed by Celebrity Strength and Conditioning Coach Amoila Cesar, his story on how he got started into health and fitness is pretty inspiring. The company Beachbody, my business affiliate partner is so amazing at choosing the BEST trainers in the world. Everyone has a story, check out Amoila Cesars story:



I just found out that this new workout program is AVAILABLE NOW though what's called VIP Early Access. This basically means that it is available through purchase of a Digital Challenge Pack. If you are already a Beachbody on Demand member, it would cost you an VIP EARLY ACCESS fee of about $37.46 USD. The program "6 Weeks of THE WORK" will make its debut on Beachbody on Demand (to the non-early access members) on April 2020. If you are not worried about getting access to the workout program now, you can always wait until April 2020 when it finally gets added to the member library on Beachbody on Demand.


I will be starting the program in a few weeks and will be getting the VIP Early Access because my ass needs to work LOL. I've been currently doing sporadic workouts on Beachbody on Demand, and not any sort of workout structure, which I feel I need at this point. With all the traveling and projects that I've been doing, it's been an issue for me to stay on track, so having a strict program to follow with someone who really pushes you should do me the trick! 

FYI, the workout program does have EXPLICIT LANGUAGE but it does offer a clean version. I think I'll be using the explicit version when the kids are not around, sometimes for me (and I can only speak for myself) I need someone to push me and yell at me, it's a motivator for me =).


So for some of you asking about what the program includes, here are some screen shots of what its all about and the different options to get started now.

GET STARTED NOW:

These are options if you are NEW TO BEACHBODY WORKOUTS

THE WORK equipment Add-Ons (get all the equipment you need) - click here!


This is what THE WORK includes:
-  36 Workouts, the workouts are designed to get you stronger, leaner and more agile. The workout is complete with digital components such as: Get Started Guide, Fit Test, Workout Calendar, and Nutrition Guides. 

Equipment needed:
- Dumbbells (light to heavy), I'll be using a sandbag at first because I won't have any dumbbells (just moved into my new place in the Philippines). As always, use what you have and don't make any excuses just because you do not have all the equipment. Pick up some canned goods, a chair or a backpack...be creative and make it work. If you can find something to lift or push, use it! 
- It says you also need resistance loops and strength slides (just work with what you have, but if you can get these, it will make your workouts more effective) Use the equipment add on link above. 
- Chin up bar optional. I would definitely get a chin up bar, there are modifications for this, but the more you use a chin up bar, the more you will get better, and with that you will yield better results! 

This is what I'll be using for the time being =)

Supplements:
Of course supplements are always optional. All I really use is my all natural superfood shake Shakeology, and I occasionally use the recovery drink which is so delicious. Supplements all depend on you, but if you wanted to get my advice, this is what I would recommend:

-  Shakeology (take your pick of flavors, there are vegan options as well) This is my go to only option because it's just like having a meal, a pre workout and post workout. Its very versatile and only made with all natural ingredients from all over the world. Unfortunately it's only available in the USA, UK and Canada at the moment of this post, and that's because of how high quality the ingredients are, it's just difficult to produce in high volume, but I hope to see it become global soon. 

TRY BEFORE YOU COMMIT:

-  Recovery Drink, after doing an intense workout, most people don't realize how many calories and energy is lost, so replenishing this soon after a workout is important. This also helps with of course soreness. Sometimes if I do not have access to the recovery supplement, I drink chocolate milk. It's delicious but just not at all as nutritious as the BB recovery drink. 
-  Pre Workout, I don't use this very often unless I am dreading my workout, and I need a boost. There are days we all feel lazy, and this just gives me a boost to get my workout done. I definitely feel better right after, but that spike really helps on those days I have no motivation, you guys feel me right? =) Don't have this, or can't get it right now, just make a peanut butter and banana sandwich (about an hour prior to your workout), I do this all the time and it helps with getting that little bit of energy I need to pull me through a workout.

LASTLY

I think support and accountability is the key to success with any workout program or regiment. Some people join gyms or attend group fitness classes which are always good options. But these people cannot be with you 24/7, so an online support group which is available 24/7 is the best way to go. I mean you can do both, because let's face it, the more motivation that you have, the better! There's nothing like having a bad day and posting how you feel in an online group, and then within seconds, you have random people messaging you with a million reasons why you need to get off your butt. I guess that is why I became a Coach over 8 years ago, it's because I was able to get some amazing results, and it was all because of the support system, for me, that's the secret of success! There's no magic pill, it's just all about hard work, commitment, and REAL PEOPLE by your side. 

It's all about Fitness, Nutrition and Real People Support - No Short Cuts

THE BOTTOM LINE:

So I decided to do this workout program because I need to get my butt in gear. I will be 49 years old this year - YIKES!!!, and I'm not getting any younger. I need a HARDCORE push, and this guy Amoila seems like the man for the job. My ideal workout seems to be a cross between P90X, CrossFit, and Running, so this will be right up my alley. If you're looking for an athletic based style workout, than this is for you. Join me, and let's kill it, or be killed together =)

5 Ways Beachbody Mentally Transformed my Life

5 Ways Beachbody Mentally Transformed my Life - Real Beachbody Transformation - Beachbody Facts
I am happier than ever! 

When you think about a Beachbody Fitness Transformation, most people are always looking on the outside, and we tend to forget that there is a lot of things going on inside as well. Here's an example, one day I was shopping at a local Whole Foods market and someone noticed my P90X shirt.  This shopper proceeded to ask me if I finished the program, I said yes. He then said, let me see those ABS!

This actually happens a lot, and I totally get it. People are visual, and they want to see physical results. But it's not really all about that. There are a lot of people who I coach who have had great results on the inside, and are not even half way done with their physical results. And here's the thing, I don't think anyone is ever really 100% finished with their transformation, mental or physical, because we all have the opportunity to always better ourselves, would you agree?

Going through a health and fitness transformation journey is tough. There are a lot of things to think about such as, "Wow, this is hard! Do I really want to be doing this?". Or, "I just worked 14 hours today, I'm tired, maybe this workout thing is just not for me!".  I could've used any and every excuse in the book to not get the results that I achieved when I completed the P90X Challenge back in 2010, but what kept me going was my daughter. I was not only doing it for me, I wanted to be healthy and fit for my daughter so that I can live long enough to see her live a wonderful life. I was also sick of feeling miserable, I just wanted to be happy! Anyone relate?

My P90X Transformation


It's all mental.

I have participated in some hardcore endurance races that have really tested my physical abilities, but more than that, also my mental grit. It is the mental grit that makes a difference whether you give up or not, because the bottom line is that you may feel that you can't run or do that extra rep, or if you are a Beachbody Coach, you may have struggles with inviting people to a challenge, but if you focus, and get your mind right, you'll be surprised on what you can achieve. Did you know that the strongest muscle in your body is your brain? Yup, so train it right, and you will get amazing results!

Here are 5 Ways Beachbody has "Mentally" Transformed my Life:

1.  Better Food Choices - Without the discipline of making proper food choices, I would not be able to see the results that I acheived. Shakeology has curved my cravings for junk foods, and has helped me open my palate to a better world of clean eating. Instead of eating for pleasure these days, I have learned to eat in order to fuel my active lifestyle. Don't get me wrong, I love to splurge every now and again, but the Beachbody Lifestyle has taught me that moderation is key, and I would definitely take running up a mountain with my daughter over a piece of chocolate cake any day!

2.  Understanding My Limitations - Overtraining was something that happened a lot when I first began my health and fitness journey. I wanted fast results, so I worked out hard and unfortunately was not focused on proper form. During my challenge, I learned that it is more about quality, and not quantity. I learned to listen to my body, set aside my EGO, and use modifications when the moves began to get a little tough. I was able to get better results by pacing myself through the program, and just showing up. It was all about doing my best, and forgetting the rest, and this is what I encourage all of my new challengers and coaches on my team to do in our online private accountability groups.


3.  More Energy - With proper nutrition, consistent workouts, and learning how to humble myself with smart rest and recovery, I have gained so much energy. It feels good to be able to play a full game of soccer with my nephews and not get winded, especially at the age of 44. Don't be that person that says "I'm too old to do that", be the person that says "Is that all you got?" =) Because age is truly just a number.

4.  Happiness - I cannot begin to tell you how much happiness I now have because of working out and eating healthy. I used to think that the only way for me to be happy and forget about my daily stress was to grab a drink at the bar with my so-called friends. The Beachbody lifestyle has changed my whole outlook on life, and I cannot imagine doing anything else. "I don't want to be happy" ~ Says No One Ever! =)

5.  Ability to Lead - Most people do not know this, but I am 100% introverted. I do not enjoy big crowds. I don't handle stress very well. I have no interest in being on stage! I'm not a fan of recognition. And I just don't like socializing! ------> That was how I used to be. Oh, I still consider myself an introvert, but I have taught myself through consistent PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT to mesh and do what it takes to achieve my goals, and it has proved to be the right decision for me. Getting out of my comfort zone has always been tough for me, but the one thing that I can say helps me with that, is the fact that I have a loving daughter that needs my support. I have a family that I love and want to do a million things with. I have a coach team who looks up to me. I want to travel and see the world. I want to be a missionary and help the global community in a meaningful way. I never imagined that one day I would be leading my own coach team, and creating leaders, but it just happened. That is how a simple Beachbody transformation can literally change your life, physically and mentally.

So at the end of the day, when push comes to shove, I force myself to get uncomfortable. Life is too short not to live your life, and I plan to make the rest of my life, the best of my life!

Getting Fit with Facebook

Getting Fit with Facebook - Facebook Fitness
Getting Fit with Facebook

I know what some of you may be thinking right now, "how in the heck can facebook get me fit?" Well, you're not the only one =) I was pretty oblivious to the concept, but after about 4 years of learning the in's and out's of this social network according to health and fitness, I have accomplished more than I've ever thought possible, and to think that Facebook started from a small college dormitory at Harvard University.

So facebook is definitely not a gym, BUT for most people, it's a "connecter" of people. The brilliant online platform brings people together from all over the world.  It doesn't matter if you're from Nepal, or if you workout or not, if you're a Doctor, or a Personal Trainer......facebook has changed the way we communicate and network with each other.

So how does this tie into getting fit? I'm glad you asked, here is how you can GET FIT WITH FACEBOOK:

FITSPIRATION,  "Fitness Inspiration" comes in all shapes, colors and sizes. Most of us, or at least the ones who will admit it, we all follow certain people on Facebook who either motivate or inspire us. I know I have a good handful of people who I follow because they always have some amazing, positive posts. Sometimes when I just don't feel like working out, or I'm having a bad day, these people motivate me to get off my ass up and go to work. Facebook is totally mobile-friendly too, so you can get inspired anywhere! Here's a suggestion that may help you with getting more fitness and positive inspiration.....get rid of the toxic people in your network! You don't need it in your life. The more inspiration you get, it is more likely that you will be motivated to hit the gym, or kill a workout at home.

ACCOUNTABILITY,  This is a big one! We all know that if we don't have anyone to keep us accountable to our health and fitness goals, then eventually we will fall off the wagon, I've been there! Facebook has many fitness support groups specific to certain areas such as: Crossfit, Obstacle Racing, P90X, Paleo, Yoga, Clean Eating...you name it, there is an accountability group out there. The cool thing about this is that, it's all FREE! If you are not into accountability groups, then I would highly recommend that you simply choose an accountability partner from your network. This person should know exactly what your goals are, and you should know his/hers too. It's all about supporting each other 100%. The idea is to stay connected and post messages to each others timelines or direct messages every week to make sure that each of you are staying on point to your fitness goals. Set some workout days together (online or offline workouts), trade clean eating recipes, and maybe start a challenge together!


-  CHALLENGE GROUPS,  This is not just about accountability, it's more about challenges and real results. Facebook Challenge Groups gives you an opportunity to meet other people who have similar interests as you. Fitness Challenge Groups are all the rage right now on Facebook. No gym, no worries. A Fitness Challenge Group can give you the same camaraderie, motivation, and of course accountability that you can find in any gym environment. There are video chats, and even online workouts! I know that when I did P90X for the first time, I would not have been able to stay motivated if I didn't have an online challenge group of people motivating me and keeping me on point. Unlike some free accountability groups, the challenge groups sometimes require a small investment. Regardless, the challenge is real, and it is set up to get you the best results possible because of the amount of commitment that is there versus a group that is just free. Whenever there is money on the line, that's when people take their health and fitness a lot more seriously.

One of my current Online Challenge Groups on Facebook
Getting Fit with Facebook - Facebook Fitness



CONNECTIVITY,  Facebook is all about networking and staying in touch. Connecting with people is as easy as saying, "hey, are you on Facebook, let's connect!". I've done this many times! It doesn't matter if you are at your kids soccer game, a obstacle race, the gym, or traveling....facebook is there to help you stay connected with the people that you meet. So the next time you meet someone who inspires you, motivates you, and is just a downright positive person, then I highly recommend that you connect with that person on Facebook, because the more positive you have in your life, the better your life will be, and that is important to get the motivation that you need to live a healthy and fit lifestyle.

INTEGRATED APPS, There are a lot of fitness apps out there that you can integrate with Facebook such as Nike Run, Runkeeper, and more. The cool thing about these apps is that when you synch it with Facebook, your friends can LIKE it, and depending on the app, it will motivate you with notifications such as clap or hoorah while you are running or training. Just another way Facebook can get you fitness motivated, and inspired to keep going.

So there you have it! Facebook is not just for gossip, drama, and non-productivity. Facebook can be used to your benefit and can really help with your health and fitness goals, it's all about connecting with the right people.

5 Ways a Coach Can Help You Reach Your Goals

Beginning a new fitness program usually starts the same way: with eagerness, excitement, and a firm commitment to reach your goals.

But as time goes by, the challenges become greater. Distractions set in. Boredom. Fatigue. Temptation. You name it. Even the best of intentions can go awry.

Benefits of a Beachbody Coach

So why is it exactly that most people fail? Lack of accountability.

It's easy to make excuses when that second helping at dinner is staring you in the face or when that extra hour of sleep beckons. We need something—or someone—to make sure we uphold our end of the bargain and don't quit.

This is why Team Beachbody® created your secret weapon: a FREE personal Coach. (me)

In fact, we created an entire network of Coaches you can partner with to achieve your goals and stay on track. Here are just a few of the many reasons why connecting with a Coach at TeamBeachbody.com can be the difference between success and failure.


1) Partner up

For most of us, going it alone is a one-way ticket to quitsville. That's because willpower alone is usually not enough to get the job done.

Want proof? We know that you're twice as likely to reach your fitness goals when you partner up and have support.

How can a Coach help you persevere? They're customers just like you who have stood in your shoes. They've taken on a fitness challenge and reached the finish line. And they're ready to help you do more than just talk the talk—they'll help you walk the walk and get real results.

He or she will be there when the going gets tough. They can help you get back up when you fall. And most of all, they'll hold you accountable and be with you every step of the way.

2) Get your fitness party started

As Mark Twain once said, "The secret to getting ahead is getting started."

He must have been starting a new exercise program.

It may sound simple, but just getting out of the starting gate is half the battle. Whether you've started before and fizzled out, or are still staring at an unopened fitness program, this is the first step to achieving results.

Your Coach will help you set a date to start, hold you accountable, and make sure you Push Play that first time. And you don't have to find the "right" time to meet with them. You can connect online, over the phone, through social media—whatever works best and fits your schedule.

In other words, no more waiting for the right time. No more excuses holding you back this year. It's all systems go in 2014!

For the newest programs, contact me for a Free Fitness Assessment!


3) Take a daily dose of motivation

Let's face it; we all have those days we don't want to get up and get going. Exercising is probably the last thing you feel like doing.

There are lots of Team Beachbody resources your Coach can recommend, including free 24/7 online support. Many Coaches also run Challenge Groups that can help connect you with other customers who share the same goals and are going through the same aches, pains, and doubts you are experiencing now. The Group will also share some amazing Success Stories for a little extra inspiration.

Even when you're ready to give up—they won't give up on you!

Just pop into the Group and ask for a little push anytime you need it. Better yet, on the days you're feeling amped up, log in and inspire others. Remember motivation works both ways.

4) Eat right

What's the fastest way to derail a successful fitness program? Eat the wrong foods.

It's not always easy to eat right—especially when you're busy and on the run. But your Coach will be there to suggest some sensible, time-saving alternatives.

Talk to them about a healthy drink like Shakeology®—a superfood-packed meal that you can make in minutes. You can also trade recipes with your Coach and other customers in your Group, too. What's more, your Coach can direct you to some awesome, healthy meal substitutes on TeamBeachbody.com.

Sometimes all it takes is some simple suggestions to get you back on track.


5) Maintain your results

Perhaps you're one of the millions of people who got off to a blazing start with their fitness program—only to see it fall apart faster than you can say P90X3™!

This is where your Coach becomes infinitely valuable: helping you maintain your results.

They can help you pick your next program to fine-tune the results you have, or take you to the next level—all while keeping you plugged into the support and motivation that helped you succeed in the first place.

So log in to TeamBeachbody.com and connect with your Coach today. Just click the Contact My Coach button in the top left corner and you'll be on your way. It's easy. It's fun. It's free. And it might just be the smartest way to get—and maintain—results.
