update!

here are the current standings...I only got 4 weigh in's this week!

Cas  -5.12% (wow!)
AS   -4.70%
Jac   -.49%
pixie +.37% (so close to hitting my start!  lol)

I did not get weigh in's from the rest of you, so if you have it, let me know!  Cas has obviously been working her lil butt off...literally!  Nice Job!

I was invited to start a BeachBody challenge by a fellow Zumba instructor.  She is a Beach Body trainer, licensed and all.  It looks great and all, and there's a fancy shmancy shake that goes along with it.  The downfall (besides the fact the cost has not been disclosed) is that it's based a great deal around doing a Beach Body video consistently at home.  In case you are not familiar, Beach Body videos are P90X, Insanity and Turbo Fire etc.  Highly intense workouts.  Now, I know myself very well.  The reason I don't already do these videos, is because I know I will not put forth maximum effort alone in my living room.  As soon as it gets too hard, I'll quit.  Now, if I was in a class in a group setting, that's a whole different story.  I'll be damned if I give up in front of a group of people.  If have only learned one thing about my workout preferences over the years, it's that I am totally a group fitness person.  I have to have that competitive fire...even if I'm not competing, and don't know the other people in the room.  I work harder knowing that someone is watching me, and would see me fail and or give up.  I emailed the trainer this, so we'll see if she has any options.  I don't think she's terribly local, so I'm pretty sure she doesn't teach a class around here.

Has anyone ever done or have more info on Beach Body challenges??
