Hammer and Chisel Hey there!! Welcome to my blog and I can't wait to share with you the details on Hammer and Chisel. I personally started my fitness journey 2.5 years ago with a strength training program and the difference I saw mentally and physically was amazing. As a mom at that time with two little one, not enough sleep in a day, I finally realized in order to give the best to my kids carving out time for fitness and good nutrition every day was a turning point.
About the trainers!! Co-creators Sagi Kalev and Autumn Calabrese are experts when it comes to incredible physical transformations. Sagi has been crowned Mr. Israel— twice—and is a Master Professional Personal Trainer, IFBB Pro, member of the IFBB Propta Hall of Fame, Certified Nutrition Specialist, and Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist. Autumn Calabrese is a celebrity trainer, best-selling author, and working mom who has held certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and the American Fitness Professionals & Associates (AFPA), and has competed at the national level in various bikini competitions. This is a first for beachbody to have two trainers in one program
Is this just another workout that will sit on the shelf? • The Master’s Hammer and Chisel is built on the three phases of SSP Training— Stabilization, Strength, and Power. Other workouts only focus on one or two phases, which might give you decent results. But The Master’s Hammer and Chisel program incorporates all three methods to help you relentlessly chip away fat and carve every muscle for a strong, visually stunning body in 60 days.
• 12 brand-new, 30- to 40-minute workouts that combine Sagi and Autumn’s proven techniques for 60 days of hardcore resistance training.
• Sagi and Autumn make eating for your goals simple. That’s why they included their easy-to-follow and completely customizable nutrition plan, along with 7 portion-control containers that show you how to portion out the right amount of food to help you reach your unique fitness goals.
• Flexible nutrition that allows you to lean out, sculpt and maintain, or build muscle.
• Includes options to adapt certain exercises if you have limited access to equipment. BONUS!
• Includes a modifier who demonstrates some moves at a lower intensity. What will I need to be able to do the program?
Emma participated the test group for The Master's Hammer and Chisel and had great results! In 60 days, she lost over 14 inches! Her advice for starting this program? "This program is going to challenge you in a way you've never been challenged before. You CAN do this but you need to follow the program all the way. This isn't a half-ass workout. Be prepared to LEARN, to be CHALLENGED, and to see crazy results!"
Just a sample of what foods will be on the meal plan for Hammer and Chisel as well.
What’s the best value to purchase?
as a challenge pack
-12 workouts on 6 DVDs -A set of 7 portion-control containers and a shaker cup -The Master’s Hammer and Chisel Program and Nutrition Guide -Quick-Start Guide -60-Day Calendar -2 bonus workouts: 10 Min Ab Hammer and 10 Min Ab Chisel -30 Day supply of Shakeology I personally will be finishing up 21 day fix extreme here are my results half way into the program!! And will be starting hammer and chisel as well.
I would love to have you join me!! We will be adding in great simple nutrition, eating healthy, lifting, building lean muscle and becoming stronger from the inside out.
So many things I want to share with those of you that have
interest in the 21 day fix!!For some
you have seen others in your life have an amazing transformation with this
program or maybe you seen it on TV and already ordered it but you have a lot of
questions.So my goals as a beachbody
coach is to support and give some guidance while you do the program.First off let’s talk about the workouts
themselves who are they right for?
ANYONE
This is a program I can truly recommend to any age
group.I personally did the workouts my
entire pregnancy and modified the modifier.When doing to 30 minute workouts there are light weights that will need
to be used so if you’re just starting out you would want to use either 3 or 5
lbs. until you build of your strength.
What does a meal plan for the 21 day fix look like?
This is just a sample to give you an idea of what you would
be eating during the 21 days.This is
not a starvation plan where you are limited on calories or counting calories
pretty much if it fits in the container you can eat it.Each person will figure out what bracket they
fall into before starting the program for example someone weight 150 lbs. will
not be eating the same amount of containers as someone 215 lbs.This meal plan is based on the first bracket.
I'm personally doing ChaLEAN Extreme however I love how simple it keeps nutrition that I still use it.
Next what all is included in the challenge pack?
Well you will receive your containers, workouts, free
shipping, free access to beachbody on demand, free coach, and 30 complete
meals.What do I mean by complete meals,
well shakeology is just that a meal you can make and take on the go, without
waste, without prepping, it’s equal to eating 5 salads with an additional 70
super foods. This entire package is 140.00 but only for a short time. My sister did an amazing
job writing out a blog post about breaking the diet cycle- What is shakeology all about?
What kind of recipes and dinners will I make for the family?
I like showing others this is not some crazy diet with little taste. My goal is to help others create a habit of daily working out and a way to eat healthy in order to create a lifestyle.
Results?
This was from a past challenger and I wanted to share for a few reasons. She had purchased a few workouts from me before but never wanted to commit shakeology or a challenge group. Then she decided enough was enough and purchased the 21 day fix challenge pack and joined in a challenge group. She is a runner and since then using the 21 day fix for training as well.
Why work with a coach?
Because I've been there, the box will come and my goal is to help you to get beyond just purchasing it but using it. Setting up your own meal plan, your workout space, scheduling in your workout with a crazy schedule, I help with figuring out your why, also doing the program and checking in from any location from Facebook with others that are doing the same program. I think there is a power in numbers!! As someone that is extremely independent it took me months to reach out to my coach and join my first accountability group, after I did it was the best decision I ever made and I enjoy sharing it with others.
What is a challenge group?
So, the group is a select group of people that I will choose
that are committed to getting the results and that are ready to truly make a
change.I will have a closed online
support group where each day you will get a post from me, a video, or a tip to
keep you motivated accountable and moving in the right direction.I will help you plan out your meals, give you
ideas, and help you stick to it.You
will be required to participate in the group discussions, get the challenge
pack that includes both the shakeology and the workout program to maximize your
results.I find that when I incorporate
shakeology that people get better results because it's one meal that they don't
have to plan, portion out or wonder if they have the right combination of
foods. This way, it’s a no brainer.
Well the news was released today!! Shawn T has blessed us with so many amazing programs in the past such as T25, Insanity, Insanity Max 30, Hip Hop Abs and the list goes on. Well it's time to turn up the DANCE music a bit of a different approach from Max 30 or Insanity It's fun and upbeat. This program will be designed for everyone that has a hard time staying focused while working out, enjoys programs like Zumba, has been doing the same workout for some time and needs a change, and those short on time.
I personally enjoy and have seen some of the most amazing transformations from challengers doing his programs. My job as a coach is to help others that purchase programs like this one and help them to stay motivated from start to finish. I had the most amazing results from doing Insanity the fall of 2013 since than we had our 3rd child and currently just getting back into a routine and my second transformation using Insanity Mas 30 (the workouts are 30 minutes long) and loving it!!
What is Cize? I’m glad you asked! It is a 4 week program that gives you a great cardio workout without feeling like you’re working out! During this time frame, Shaun T will give you step-by-step choreography in a fun, easy to follow dance program from your living room. In each routine, Shaun breaks down challenging moves step-by-step, and builds them into a full dance sequence in just 35-40 minutes. So, while you are mastering the dance moves, you'll also be burning fat and calories.
When is it released? Well I have news for you, your going to be able to sample a workout by a NEW feature Beachbody has to offer- Beachbody on Demand I want you to be the first to sample this with me in June. To learn more details as the come available fill this form out- Talk to you soon XOXO
Beachbody on Demand Truth be told anyone that knows me knows I HATE technology
and the thought of learning about beachbody on demand was something I pushed
off to the side. UNITL this month as a top sc earner we had access to preview
and try this out before it goes live to the public.My mind started turning and truly became
excited for all of the customers and coaches this would help. So what did I
discover as I learned more about beachbody on demand?Beachbody on Demand and the ability to
instantly stream any workout in the Beachbody Digital library to your laptop,
tablet, or mobile device- wherever you have an internet connection!Plus you can get digital versions of the
program guides and workout calendars, so you can start getting results
today!The digital library will be
updated monthly with fresh workouts and different programs, so you never run
out of the on the go options.All you
need is literally an internet connection!Can you see the benefits already?
Are you the type of person that loves to jump from program to program and switch it up often? This would be PERFECT for you. I personally do well following a program from start to finish. And let me just say there are TWO hidden gems in this list I want to point out Chalene extreme and Turbo Fire. These programs are the Complete 60 and 90 day programs. I personally started my weight loss journey with Chalene Extreme and lost 40 lbs. in 90 days-My Transformation
Are you someone that travels for work? The thought of at home DVD's to take on the go are not easy to take and travel with. However you always travel with your phone, laptop, or Ipad and this sounds like it might be just the right fit for your life situation.
So on Monday March 2nd Beachbody on Demand will be available
to every Team Beachbody Customer that has the club membership.My job as a coach is to help each customer
that wants change more then they want to stay the same.It’s so much more than just creating an
account and purchasing some super foods in a bag and working out with Shawn
T.My goal is to coach you from start to
finish in your weight lose journey. Let’s face it.... transforming your body
and your habits is just stinking hard!It takes will power and want power! I personally am in my second
transformation after having our 3rd child two weeks ago and look
forward to staying on this journey together.It takes doing it anyways even on the days that you do not feel like
it!It takes making good choices when it’s
so much easier to just make bad choices.So the club membership gives you all of those things!You get the club membership by asking how you
can upgrade to the club membership if you do not have a coach and I can walk
you through the steps to get the club membership.
How much does it cost? Well the club membership is $2.99 a week but it is billed quarterly at $38.87. You can cancel or change it at any time. You are not locked into the club for a specific period of time. So that is definitely nice that you don't have to sign a contract. There is no additional cost to stream the workouts. When you get the club membership you INSTANTLY have access to the customized meal planning feature, that has a printable grocery list, it allows you to customize and note if you have food allergies or don't like certain foods. Most importantly you get a coach like me who will connect you to our support and accountability groups to help you set realistic goals for you, match you up with the correct program for your needs and keep you accountable to what you want to accomplish.
Ok so the really cool part is this! You can also get the club membership and shakeology in the form of a challenge pack starting on March 2nd as well. So if you want to get both shakeology and the club membership you have this option! It gives you Shakeology for 30 days and access to on demand for 90 days! The cost for 90 days of support 140.00!! If you break that down for 90 days it's $1.55 a day the cost of stopping for a bottle of water on your way to work, less then a cup of joe on the way to work, less then shopping for new clothes for the spring, less the going to the dr. for issues related to poor health. You get the picture there is value in your health and it starts with you.

I look forward to providing support day in and day out while you transform your body and also transform how you view yourself from the inside out. Are you ready?
I just wanted to take a moment and explain what a challenge
group is and why I do what I do.First
off I started off just like you after baby number two I could not loss the baby
weight to this day I remember going into Tractor Supply (post 3 months of
having a baby) and the employee asked me when I was due.I smiled and said I had a baby 3 months ago
and held the tears back.Why?Because I was working my butt off well what I
thought I was doing was going to work my butt off and my baby belly in turn nothing
was happening.I was stuck, how could I
succeed in other areas of life but just could not understand what it took to
like what I saw in the mirror.I saw a
post just like this one from another mom offering for me to be a part of a
challenge group.I had no idea who she
was and when she told me shakeology was a requirement I wanted to run the other
way.After all I’m a stay at home mom at
the time with a new baby and every dollar counts.However I was willing to take a risk in hopes
of being able to change.I too did not
want to “drink a shake” for a meal.I
like food, I like to eat, I like to use a fork however I wanted more to change. These are my results after a challenge group.
What is a challenge group?
You'll be added to our VIP Facebook group where only the
members of the group can see what is being posted. You'll be expected to check
in daily with your workout and nutrition so we can make sure you're staying on
track. There will be an awesome nutrition plan included with your fitness
program. We start together and we end together. No one quits. First we’ll work
on flushing all those negative thoughts swirling in the back of your mind that
are keeping you stuck. If you believe you will succeed, you will.
What I do is help you customize your health and fitness
goals to meet your needs. Then I help you choose the best Beachbody workout to
get there based on your ability level. Then you replace 1 meal a day with
shakeology for the challenge group to give your body 1 meal that is
supercharged with ingredients that will give you natural energy, cravings will
be curbed, you will stay full for at least 3 hours and its equivalent to 6
salads in one meal. Then, I am going to teach you how to plan the other meals of
the day. I will help you create a customized meal plan, give you recipes, snack
ideas, tips, motivation and keep you accountable. Every day I post in the
challenge group your daily mind set tip or post. You check in and rate your
date and read what is posted. We all keep each other accountable!
I am going to address
the emotional eating, eating out at restaurants, how to handle the temptations,
cheat meals, body image and more!
I've created an
entire curriculum for my group!
Does this sound like something you would like to do?
What is shakeology (click to find out)? There are so many products out there I'm not going to name other "meal replacement" drinks or brands however most are not a true replacement and are filled with artificial sweeteners and artificial flavoring which is only going to leave you hungry and craving more garbage. I was a breastfeeding mom when I started and even now pregnant I would not to take in something that did not benefit my body. Being that shakeology is sweetened with a natural plant Stevia it truly does not get much healthier (no not like the chemical found Stevia at Wal-Mart).
Why run challenge groups?
Because I love paying it forward and helping others, it's not about the money, the time I invest into the challenge groups in my option is time well spent. I love paying it forward with my team as well and giving them the training needed as well so their customers can also see amazing results. It's messages like this that cause me to jump out of bed in the morning and help those ready to change.
Our team Shining to inspire stands out in a crowd for sure we are manly made up of moms that had awesome results and enjoy helping others with their own personal fitness goals.
What are your personal goals? I can't wait to chat
So I truly wanted to sit down for the past week and share
different misconceptions about what beach body coaching is all about and if it
would be a good fit for your family. I’ve received a lot of message and e-mails
over the past month and thought what better way than to tell a little bit about
my story and how becoming a beach bodybody coach had changed my life and my family’s
life as well.I call myself a stay at
home mom but truly since age 5 I’ve been an entrepreneur.I always worked harder then the next person
and not matter what I would go the extra mile.My background before staying home with the kids was a waitress after
being home for 2 years I was missing that drive I love the feeling of going
after goals in life and never settling.I think sometimes as a mom we get this feeling that our lives have to be
put on hold until the kids go to school.That is just not true anymore it’s 2014 MOM’S you can have the best of
both worlds I’m living prof.My husband
and I own our own excavation business as well as rental properties.
Everyone has a story when they decide to sign up as a
beachbody coach. I realize mine is a bit different
I’m not the “rags to riches story”
I’m not the desperate housewife wanting to go shopping and
on a tight budget without extra funds
I’m not the mom that worked full time and wanted the chance
to stay home full time with her kids
But rather I always knew I would do something amazing with
my life. I have a business mind and in the past it always comes down to the
dollar amount. Beachbody is so not about the big bonuses or get rich quick but
rather what grabbed my attention was how many lives I could change. What drives
me every day to be better? I totally see the bigger picture and love the
flexibility that follows putting others first. By putting others first the
income follows from day one I believe I had what it takes to be successful and that mixed together is enough.
I don't know enough people
Yes let’s start with my personal biggest fear!!I’m an introvert and the thought of talking
to complete strangers and telling them about the T25 scares the crap right out
of me.My network of friends consists of
very few close friends because if you’re an introvert you totally understand
that’s how you like to keep it.Would
you be surprised to know that 95% of the coaches on my team I’ve never met in
my life?If you’re someone that is
willing to learn who to use social media I will teach you what took me HOURS to
figure out over the past 14 months.
I'm not fit enough to be a coach
Great neither was I when I started I’m just a mom with kids
that don’t sleep the entire night and a husband that leaves early in the
morning.With that being said I’m a real
person with the same real struggle and have had 2 C-sections but I work consistently
everyday to live a healthier life and now pregnant with baby number 3 I really
am not at my goal weight however I can still inspire others to live a better
life and so can you!!
I don't have enough money to become a coach
Oh I would love to share with you my thoughts on this what
other business can you invest 40 bucks (less money than it takes to buy the
family pizza) and turn it into a million dollar business.Most business owners want to see a profit in
the first month I will show you how to create an income from home if your
teachable.For the first 3-6 months -
you will learn from me and what I do with my business. I will walk you through
everything step by step. After a few months of following what I've shown you,
your pay could be anywhere between 100$-300$ weekly.From there, your pay can increase to 500$ -
1000$ per week on average (over $50,000 annually) for the following 6-8 months.
You can expect that number will double or even triple every year if you are
consistent with your commitment towards the business.
I don't have the time to make coaching successful
YEP short on time heck yeah same here, I work our traditional
business and it consumes about 15 to 20 hours a week doing all the behind the
sense “stuff”. Everything from ordering job materials, returns, checking
prices, sending out invoices, paying bills, balancing the check book, payroll,
new employee paperwork, payroll taxes, quarterly taxes, phone calls, the list
goes on. My husband is out of the house most days for 12+ hours, I have two
little one’s that keep me hooping I manage the house, and find time to put
dinner on the table.HOWEVER I carve out
time consistently every day for my beach body business first thing in the
morning while my kids are either just waking up or still sleeping and do so
after they go to bed.I will teach you
what you need to do in an hour each day to be successful. There is not a quota that needs to be met each month and the crazy thing about being your own CEO you get to decide how much time you spend on growing your business because its your business.
I am not a healthy and fitness expert
It’s awesome if you are but what I’ve found is the more
natural a person is others can relate beside that’s what they are buying the
workouts like T25 and Insanity for the customer is receiving an export in their
own home plus shakeology gives the customer one meal a day with a dense dose of
nutrition our job as coaches is for accountability hence the reason for running
challenge groups to support those wanting to live a better life.
I am not a sales person and don't care to be the "crazy person" others hide from at Target
Oh I know what you mean!!What I found is just by sharing my story and being real with people on
social media others relate and naturally what to be a part of what I’m
doing.I set out every morning to add
value to others lives not just “sell a challenge pack”.Beside I have an amazing opportunity that can
truly change some one’s life for the better.With my focus being set that way I never feel odd posting about a
challenge group or the opportunity to make a business from beach body because
it has truly changed my life and I know it has the chance to change others as
well.
There are too many coaches out there it's too late for me
Really???? No this cannot even be something that holds you
back with obesity on the rise people need this with more and more families
living pay check to pay check there are plenty of others that could benefit from
the choice you make to today “why not me”.I really think it’s like the last man standing well ok the coach that
just keeps going no matter what life throws your way you just keep staying consistent
and 6 months from now you will realize being consistent it what makes you
successful.
I don't like to work out from home, I prefer the gym
Ok so I came across this every now and then. To be honest, I know quite a few Beachbody coaches who do in fact go to the gym. What they do is use Beachbody fitness programs as a supplemental at-home program. Believe it or not, coaching is not all about exercising. It's about living a healthy life which includes eating healthy too! You don't get that at a gym. So, you don't have to give up your gym fetish to be a coach. You can still use the products, be a product of the product, eat healthy, AND go to the gym!
Beachbody coaching is a pyramid scheme
I love MLM businesses because everyone starts out the same.And how much you success is a direct
reflection of how many people you help.How many of you have a traditional job and the only way to increase your
income is by getting a raise, your boss getting promoted, or someone above you
changing jobs?That sounds like a pyramid
to me just saying plus pyramid scheme are eligible and I’m pretty sure if beachbody
was doing something illegal they would not advertise it all over the TV and
internet.
I have no business experience
Honestly
some of you might look at me and think she is successful because she owns other
businesses but honestly the skills that made me successful as a waitress carry
over into my beachbody business.Treat
others the way you would want to be treated, offer awesome customer service,
keep the line of communication open, knowing how to work with different personalities,
and teacher others how to do what you do.
