FITNESS COACH SUCCESS- Maegan Blinka New 4 Star Diamond Beachbody Coach!

Fitness Coach Success- Maegan Blinka Forever FIT's New 4 Star Diamond Beachbody Coach!

I am so excited to announce our very first 4 star Diamond coach on Forever FIT, Maegan Blinka!! Maegan is a college friend of mine who worked with me at Ruby Tuesday back in the day!! After college, we lost touch... we moved on, got married, had kids, and it wasn't until last year that we were reunited after 6 years, thanks to Beachbody!! 

Maegan reached out to join a challenge group of mine to just tone up and get back to that pre baby body!  Well, she has done way more than that!! She is now in better shape than she ever has been!! What did it take?? Starting a workout regimen (working out from home) with the 21 DAY FIX, drinking SHAKEOLOGY daily as her meal replacement full of superfoods and dense nutrition, but also getting the accountability and motivation in our challenge group held in a closed group on face book!  This is where the magic happens... where the lives are changed! 

Since Maegan has found great success while in our challenge group, she loved the products and decided to sign up as a "Discount Coach" to get the discount on her Shakeology every month.  She is a stay at home mom and quit her full time job as an accountant to be home with her babies so getting the discount would help her and her family with saving money.  

After a couple months, Maegan decided getting the discount was awesome, but why not help people that struggle with their weight and health and also earn income for her family? She took her journey and started sharing it with her friends and family and as she showed her excitement about her success, everyone was joining in! She got tons of her family involved as the first people she could help, including her grandmother! 

As Maegan continued sharing her journey and love for the home fitness programs and Shakeology, she has built an amazing and successful business! She is officially Forever FIT's 1st 4 star Diamond Coach which means she has helped at least 4 people on her team build an amazing team themselves and reached Diamond rank! 

She is changing lives and am so excited to share that she has worked very hard and has been so dedicated to her business that she and her family are currently building their 2nd home--> Their DREAM home at the age of 29! 

I am so very proud of you Maegan and only looking forward to more amazing parts to your journey!  

I am looking for 5 people to join us on this journey to success as a part of Forever FIT! We are the top 1% of the entire Beachbody Organization and looking for more people who are driven and passionate about their own fitness goals and want to pay it forward and help others reach their health and fitness goals! 

I have a Coach Training that will get you started with understanding what we do as fitness coaches working from home, along with learning what it takes to be successful working part-time, earning a full-time income for you and your family!

Please fill out the application below for an exclusive spot in my next New Coach Training to Success!  I will respond within 24 hours!

NPC Figure Competition Prep- 11 Weeks out Show #3

NPC Figure Competition Prep- Show #3

So I have some new goals this time around!! Time to build more muscle in a few areas: My delts, my back, and my quads! Then lean everything else out and get that body fat low! I am ready to do better than my first 2 shows!! ITS GAME ON!! :)- 

Ok--- My morning workouts are sticking to the same as I did for my first two shows.. They worked out really well for me.  My amazing Beachbody workouts!! Seriously, having the availability to just wake up while my kiddos are still sleeping and get my workout done is awesome! What a great sense of accomplishment you feel first thing in the morning!!  And I am back to eating my egg whites and oatmeal but now I can add my apple back in and salsa on my eggs WITH ......  MY 1 YOKE!! WOOHOO!! Lol!!! It is pretty awesome!!

My afternoon workouts are Body Beast but I am also incorporating weight training at the gym.  I am lifting 5 times a week.  Changing my routine a little with Leg Day and doing more bis and tris and calves... My first show, I did not work those out AT ALL!! My second show, I did bis and tris maybe 1 every 2 weeks, but now I will be doing them weekly along with calves at least 2 times a week :) Leg day I will be focusing more on my glutes on a day by itself.. Plyos of course as I did before!

I love how each experience changes and is different! I learn something new each time!! 

I am also incorporating my SHAKEOLOGY, my health shake meal replacement full of dense nutrition and superfoods daily, but also BCAA's during my workouts to help with protein synthesis and improving muscle soreness. 

Speaking of Shakeology....holy amazing breakfast!! LOL.. So I had my plain oatmeal and didnt want to waste 2 more minutes making my egg whites lol, so I mixed a scoop of chocolate Shakeology in with 1 tbsp Natural Peanut Butter and mixed that bad boy together and OH MAN was that amazing!!! 

Gotta have my Flex Friday! I made my serious workout face hehe!!  I posted a little challenge in our challenge group (group where I help people 1:1 with their health and fitness goals in a closed group on facebook) and had our challengers post their best Flex Friday post! We had some good pictures!! 

One of my snacks I have been craving that I never had before is Grapefruit!! Now I have to be careful with how much fruit I have and what time of day I eat it, but this is pretty darn good!! I can't believe I never had it before!! I was really missing out!!

Ok I'm not going to lie, my cheat meal Saturday was PRETTY darn awesome!!! We had our Beachbody Super Saturday which is a training event that we attend or lots of inspiration, motivation, training, and success stories!! We also do a workout so I definitely got an amazing workout in before that cheat meal :) 

The amazing loaded nacho cheat meal! I split it with another coach of mine. Does that count?!? :)-

Starting Sunday out right.. got my motivation tank on and my morning cardio was INSANITY MAX 30.. yup that kicked my butt! It doesn't matter how good of shape you are in, I swear these workouts get you every time!  I always have my first meal right after my morning workout.  I made my man cakes a little different this time!

I did my 3/4 egg whites, 1/2 cup oatmeal, 1 tbsp cinnamon, but then added 1 tbsp natural peanut butter and 1/4 cup plain Greek Yogurt.  Yummy!! My 2.5 year old son was loving them with me!

Man cakes with Natural Peanut Butter and Greek Yogurt

So here you have it!! My first week of prepping for my next show!!! I am beyond excited to get this going and continue this amazing journey!! I love to continue building on my own journey, but also helping others getting into the best shape of their life, whether it be losing those last 10 lbs, 25, or 100 pounds, or just toning and building muscle!

Beachbody Success Club Trip to Cancun, Mexico 2015!

Beachbody's Success Club Trip in Cancun, Mexico!

One thing I can say confidently is I work for one of the BEST companies around!!! Not only do I have the opportunity to help others reach their health and fitness goals, but the ability to go on trips and include my family! I can honestly say I wake up EVERY morning excited to work, and thankful to have this career right in front of me!
As a top Beachbody coach, when you help people, you also earn income and points towards Beachbody's Success Club Trip.  Every year it is different and this year, it happened to be at Moon Palace Resort in Cancun, Mexico! So this trip was PAID IN FULL for my entire family of 4 including an extra night since I am an Elite Coach (top 1% of the organization)! We left on Tuesday and returned last night!!

Seriously, for their first airplane ride ever, they did amazing!!! Focused on the airplane tri-folds!!

 And the fun begins... as we are boarding the plane and waiting to lift off, we ended up delayed which then made us miss our connecting flight in North Carolina! So we ended up taking 3 flights to get to our destination! A little stressed because the boys are anxious and well.. Weston is Weston... lol. My oldest Chase that is 4 kept saying his legs were weak and he cant walk lol! Then as we miss our flight and are waiting to see what one we can get on next, I get chocolate milk spilled down my entire outfit.. and the only one I had since my luggage was gone.  But no need to cry over spilled milk right?? :)- 

More Airplane fun!! I just loved sitting back and watching them!!

 WE MADE IT!!!!!  WOHOOO!!!! Almost 8 hours later, but better late than never right?!?

Our beautiful room at the Moon Palace Resort!!

Since we got in late, we just unpacked and relaxed for the rest of the night!!

What a perfect way to wake up!!!

Clean eating at its finest!! Just the beginning lol

And were ready for the beach!!! Chase and Mommy time!!!

My brother in law, husband and the boys! Oh they are all too much alike!!! ;)-

Love this lil man!! 

One thing I did during our vacation was treat hubby and went golfing with our friends! While they went golfing, I treated myself to a spa day...Chocolate wrap and yes.... FISH Spa!! HEHE!! It was really weird at first but totally got use to it!! My feet have never been so soft! Yes, they eat the dead skin off your feet... Yes, I roll like that lol!!

And then the evening comes!!! The welcome reception was great!! Love seeing our friends from all over the US!!

Jen, Maegan, Lauren, Myself, and Kaileigh!

Can I pass on saying what I did with all this?!? YIKES!!!

 Can I just say Im human and totally fell off the wagon with the food? I had all intentions on eating well... Yea, not so much!! I don't even eat desserts and I went all in!! Desserts, Guac, and yes, cheeseburgers that were prob 50/50.... UGHH!! I did have fun while doing it though! Because I knew when I get back, its time to prep for show #3!! :) 

Lots of relaxing at the pool with friends!!

Ok seriously, this little cute preggo momma is my sister in law and coach Lauren Penrose... This just shows you that Fit and Pregnant CAN HAPPEN!! She continues working out regularly and eating clean, along with drinking her SHAKEOLOGY to give her body nutrients and whole foods to keep her body and baby going strong!! :) 

So glad to have this momma as my family and Beachbody family!!! <3 nbsp="" td="">

Maegan and I .... our famous pose...gotta keep the memories going!! <3 td="">

FAMILY PICS!!!! It is seriously SOOO hard to get a darn picture with all 4 of us and everyone looking and smiling!! At least it kinda worked with just mommy lol!!!

Out for dinner with the Premier & Elite Reception on the Beach!!

Just some of my favorite people! Kristin Richards and my BFFFF Kaileigh Hennessey- found them ONLY through Beachbody!! Yup, I am one lucky momma!! 

Oh we got the whole crowd!! Our kids hung our pretty much everywhere!!  My boys and Kaileigh and Tim's daughter and son! These 4 are the 4 stooges!! lol  

Myself, Lindsay Stay, and Cody Hicton!<3 gals="" nbsp="" td="" these="">

 And then the morning comes... Searching and searching for some of my belongings... Where on earth did my bathing suit go and my new cover up I just bought????? Seriously my stuff is disappearing!!  First I didnt even mention, the first night we were here, my ID and credit card was stolen, now my clothes?! My husband and I looked EVERYWHERE in our room... literally NOTHING!! Then, we decide to look over the balcony because I did have it out there at one time drying... well well... now they are all on the bottom in the trees and bushes... We can Thank Weston for that! Yes my 2 year old threw my clothes, his toothbrush and a remote control of the 3rd floor! I guess he just didnt want them there! Lol OH kids!!! Daddy rescued everything back!!

A great workout with my girls and Tony Horton!! Nothing like a good Flex Friday to get your day going right!!!

And our crazy moves again!! Maegan and I! We are kinda fun!! :)- 

 Being able to watch Carl Daikeler, our CEO of Beachbody, Shaun T, Autumn Calabrese, and Tony Horton talk about their own journey and transformation to who they are now was absolutely touching and inspiring!! It just shows we are all normal people, but how successful you become depends on how hard you are willing to work!! From people who broke, cars that would break down at any moment, dancing for money, divorced and working 14 hour shifts just to make ends meet.... yes, these successful people know what its like to have to work for it... But the difference is, they were not willing to give up or take "NO" for an answer! 

Top 10 Panel Coaches

Seriously, so proud of my up line, cousin, and mentor Melanie Mitro because she has inspired me from day 1! I watched her journey from when she started getting involved with Beachbody and to now see her as the #1 coach in the entire organization is pretty darn awesome!! She is so passionate and driven and she totally belongs right where she is in that spot!!

Hanging out with Caleb and Katy!

The one and only Caleb Thomas :) Such a funny, but great guy! Posing for our next Figure Competition!! LOL!!

Time for a little Mommy and Weston QT!!

 Night out with the Dream Team!

Myself, Maegan B, and Sarah G! <3 my="" td="" team="">

Ok, so we celebrated a little!

Forever Fit with Melanie M :) 

How many pics do we need to take to get the right one lol?!

A nice run on the beach first thing in the morning!

A little Insanity Max with Shaun T?! Yup Ill take it!
We have so much fun together!! Lots of laughs and lots of calories burned :) 

The Dream Team post workout!

Ok I almost did great with breakfast this morning... had a nice egg white omelette with veggies... Then I saw this lol... Yea I was bad!!! French toast and mini waffles with Peanut Butter, Nutella, and strawberry Jam... It tasted so good but makes you feel so bad!! :/  I guess you can say there is all kinds of food at Beachbody events!! Now I just have to make the right choices lol!! Every event I had, I was training for something so this was my time to enjoy!

 Looks like daddy got to do his thing too! Arcade for the boys!!! :)- 

 Loved being able to hang out at the pool while boys napped there for us!!! Relaxing!!!

One of the best dinners I had here- at the Sushi and Hibachi restaurant!! I think this was the most veggies I had lol!!

Now if I can just learn how to use chopsticks it would be great lol!!!  Yes they work better when they are not broken apart lol!

The last party of the trip!!! Time to celebrate our success one last time with family and friends!!

We kinda crazy! <3 nbsp="" td="">

My sister in law and my hubby with his brother... so much fun celebrating together!!

Love this group of ladies!! Dancing the night away!

Val, Brittany and myself :) 

 I would say overall, we had an awesome time!! A great getaway and a great first family vacation, thanks to Beachbody!! If I was not in this career, I would still be working those long 12 hour swing shifts, having a hard time getting vacation, and missing out on these great opportunities! 
This career is all about my working to improve myself both physically and mentally, along with helping others on their journey, and now I can provide for my family and give to them what we missed out on before!! 
You never know what success you can have unless you take that scary leap of faith and step into the unknown and give it all you got! I tell my team... stay in this business for 1 year and give it all you got... that way you don't stop because times get tough. If you don't do this, you may live not knowing your fullest potential and live with regret.  Regret of not having these amazing opportunities and freedom for yourself with your career but also financial freedom and freedom to be the own CEO of your business!

Ill finish this off right and just say I'm Pretty pumped about what came in the mail when I got back!! An invitation for our next trip SUMMIT 2015 in Nashville, TN for an extra day, shopping, cocktails and party at the Music City Center .. followed by a concert at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum!!! OH YEA!!!

Then I also received an exclusive Sneak Peek to our newest program CIZE by Shaun T that will be released in July!!! Stay tuned for me showing a sneak peek and dancing my butt off!! ;)-
