Looking for a Little Extra Incentive to Get Fit? Like Cold Hard Cash?

As I’m sure some of you know, I started using the BeachBody workouts and their Shakeology drinks earlier this year. For me, the results alone have been proof enough to keep me on track and following their program. But starting Labor Day, there’s going to be even more incentive to do so. BeachBody putting money where their mouth is by offering up what they are dubbing the “BeachBody Health Bet”.

They’ll be sending out checks to everyone that completes the three parts of the Health Bet. Depending on how many people buy Challenge Packs prior to the start, the pot will be between 1 and 3 million bucks! Obviously the more people that buy in, the bigger the pot. The more people that complete the bet, the smaller each payout. I have no idea where the final payout will land, but what I do know is that I’ll be doing the work regardless, so I want to be part of it… whatever the payout ends up being.

**So how does it really work? **Here are the steps:

**1. Join My TBB Team **or tell your current coach that you want in. This part is FREE. If you don’t have a coach or you aren’t getting the support you need, I’d be happy to have you join our team. We do lots of other free events like healthy eating groups and group fitness challenges to motivate one another. There is a deadline coming up pretty quickly though… You need be an active participant in a Challenge Group on the My Challenge Tracker app by September 5, 2016

**2. Track Your Progress. **Use the app to log at least five Shakeology drinks with photos and three Beachbody workouts during each of the four qualification weeks. We’ll be doing this as a group and as you may have seen in this post, I find this kind of peer pressure to be a good thing. Obviously in order to do this part you would need the workout programs and Shakeology.

3. Qualify Each Week. Enter your Shakeology and workouts by 11:59 p.m. on the last day of each contest week as follows

Week 1: September 5–September 11** Week 2: September 12–September 18

Week 3: September 19–September 25

Week 4: September 26–October 2

4. Cash in!**

This is the first time that BeachBody has done anything like this, so I’m excited to see how it works. And even in the worst case scenario, would it really be all that bad to take a month to work towards better health? You’d be amazed at what a month of conscious effort can really do.
