Beachbody UK to Launch 19th October—Fitness Crazy!

Beachbody was found in 1998 in Santa Monica, CA, in the United States by Carl Daikeler (CEO) and John Congdon (President). Together they have achieved great success over the last 19 years with the well known Insanity and PiYo workouts amongst many others. Well now the company is expanding again and is launching Beachbody in the UK with Coaches excitedly recruiting their teams ready for October 19th.

All the UK Coaches will be kicking off with 21 day fix, a portion control meal plan and DVD workout schedule offering workouts on demand via the internet, tailored eating plansm and as well as virtual support. There is also an army of real life Team Beachbody coaches to support you as you progress through your fitness journey.

One husband and wife coaching team, Neil and Jo-Ann Field, can be found on Facebook with their page Energizing UK; they post regularly and offer lots of information and advice on joining their team. They are finding lots of people are signing up to Beachbody and they have built a great team of coaches themselves.

They explained how you don't need a Fitness Coaching background, just commitment and enthusiasm. When you create your plan, your fitness level is assessed to get you started at the correct level, and allows you to build from that point at your own pace.

The Beachbody secret to success is its focus on shorter intense bursts of active workouts with a short rest period then another intense activity burst. Feeling the burn will come easy, as its high energy sessions help burn calories and build a leaner more defined physique.

Some of the workouts such as Insanity and PiYo are not for newcomers with little experience; these workouts require a high level of cardiovascular fitness and anyone who wants to embark on the tougher programs really needs to check with their GP first.

Along with the workouts, Shakeology is launching here too. As the name suggests it's a supplement shake, packed with energy giving nutrients and proteins. It's not a faddy diet shake which replaces healthy meals, but is intended to offer a valuable energy boost to maximise your workout.

I also contacted Beachbody coach Danielle on her Beach Body UK Facebook page, she too is super excited about launch day and she can contacted on her page, or by email [email protected] Danielle too is starting out on her own fitness journey and will be posting before and after shots on her page if you aren't sure but are interested to see how it works over the coming weeks.

There is an official launch party in London on October 21st at Hilton Hotel, Park Lane, London, to welcome all members of Beachbody UK. It will be hosted by the official Team Beachbody ten years on from their establishment in 2007. Super trainer Shaun T will be holding workout sessions too, though the popularity of his class means there is already a long waiting list. You can find more information on the Facebook page Team Beachbody UK.

Like all fitness crazes, it has its critics. Dr Marion Nestle PHD, a professor of Nutrition, Food Studies and Public Health, now retired from New York University, was quoted in an article by Michelle Ruiz, for popular magazine Cosmopolitan where said she is "surprised anyone falls for this" referring to the Beachbody fitness programme and stated "it's all about making money," but then what business isn't about making money? All gyms and fitness instructors will charge for their service. As for whether it works surely that is up to the individual and whether or not they invest the time and money and stick at it.

For the busy working folks of the UK, to be able to create your own fitness schedule, and workout in your own home with the support of your Beach Body coach, is a no brainer solution! To be honest many of us simply can't schedule regular gym attendance around family commitments, kids extra curricular activities and a full time job.

The cost is a consideration, though Beachbody On Demand do offer a 14 day free trial and afterwards a one year membership with full access costs £99 and six months is £59 so it racks up well alongside regular gym memberships. You will need to invest £39.90 for the portion control tubs and £6.95 for shipping.

With the slogan of Decide, Commit, Succeed it's all up to you really want to try it head over to the Beachbody website and discover for yourself what Beachbody UK can do help you start your own fitness journey, just in time for your summer 2018 Beach holiday, or just to build your strength, well being, and fitness ability!
