Coach Chris Check-In!

Hey Team!

There are lots of things coming to an end this week. My two oldest kiddos are headed back to school on Monday….yeah back to school BEFORE August! It seemed like such a short summer for them. At least the pool will still be open for another month. August around here is generally miserable, but this year it seems the entire summer has been like that.

The other thing coming to a close is my P90X2/Asylum hybrid. Sunday marks my 90^th day with this craziness and this last week and I have really felt the wear on my lower body. There has probably been more lower-body work in this final phase than the first two phases combined. But given all of that, I am pleased to say that I have had a lot of fun with this hybrid and will give my full review on it next week, so be on the lookout for that soon.

This week is also when my twin girls will be 11 months old! Crazy!

Wait…who celebrates 11 months?

Ok, we don’t either, but everyday they are changing and doing new things and it is hard to keep up. One is walking, while the other is motoring around on all fours. It definitely has been an awesome time having them around and my lovely wife has managed to keep her sanity all the while…

I love the quote: “Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end.” – Seneca

I bet you thought it was from the “Closing Time” song by Semisonic. Sorry, but they got it from someone else too…

You can’t start something without first leaving something else behind. Nutrition is a perfect example of this! Nutrition is something that a lot of people generally have a tough time with. You have to stop the bad eating habits and adopt newer and healthier ones. Commit yourself for 60-90 days of clean nutrition! Heck, do it for a week and see how much better you will feel at the end of that week. Track your nutrition to ensure you are ACTUALLY eating healthy. I used to fall into this trap because I felt I wasn’t eating the majority of the JUNK I used to, but the fact was until I started tracking it; I didn’t have a clue. MyFitnessPal.com is a free and easy to use resource for tracking nutrition. If you don’t have an account, click over and set one up and start…TODAY! Look me up, my user name is; cburn_317

Once you STOP making poor health choices, you will START see the differences and others will notice as well. Don’t let the opinion of others hold you back either…This is a pretty common and due to human nature, we tend to let their opinions override our focus and give in to the pressures of “fitting in”.

STOP THAT! Do YOUR thing and tell yourself that; “I CAN DO THIS! I WILL DO THIS! I WILL NOT BE DENIED!”

Prepare For a Warrior Dash Race

Next month, I’ve got a new adventure ahead; the Warrior Dash. It is a 5K (3-3.5) mile obstacle run. This will be my first obstacle run, but I am pretty excited about it! I get to run alongside my brothers, which will be awesome and surely bring with it some unforgettable memories. While I haven’t a lot of dedicated time training for this, I felt like I would share some experiences of a friend of mine and how he has trained in the past.

Here is the intro to the article:
“The “Warrior Dash Race” is described as: “the ultimate event for thrill-seeking athletes. This 5k race is held on the most demanding and unique terrain from around the world. Participants will take on intense obstacles, and celebrate their feat with music, beer, and muddy shorts! “

On August 11, 2012, I will be participating in my first Warrior Dash here in Indiana. I am pretty excited about it since it will allow me to see what kind of athletic performance gains I have been able to establish since I started with P90X back in 2009 and P90X2 in 2012.”

Lastly

I’m looking for a few select leaders this month to help us change the world. If you want to do something truly fulfilling while you’re working on your own health & fitness AND earning a nice side income, go here now… Beachbody Coaching Opportunity

Let’s help others and pay it forward!

How many of you have/know someone that you think would benefit from being a part of this group? We all probably know SOMEONE that may be struggling with health and fitness.

Who do you know that has high cholesterol, blood pressure issues or blood sugar problems? Do you know someone that needs to lose weight, tone up or gain weight?

If you think you know someone, even if it is just one person, let me know and let’s get them plugged in. A little friendly competition is always beneficial to those involved.

Got a question?

I also wanted to make sure that everyone on my team is aware that I am here for YOU! If you have ANY questions related to health and fitness, don’t hesitate to contact me directly either on Facebook or via email (coachchris@yourfitnesspath.com). I am always willing to provide feedback and suggestions on ways that you can get the results that you are after.

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 our team!

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.yourfitnesspath.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!

Chris Coburn
