How to Use Beachbody On Demand and How to Get a Free Trial!

Hi! If you purchased a challenge pack from me as your coach, you get a couple awesome freebies right off the bat-- besides me, I mean! You also get access to Beachbody On Demand for 30 days ABSOLUTELY FREE! Because I want you to fully understand how to use it and what is included, I made this awesome, no-makeup post-workout sweaty video for you! In it, I'll show you exactly how to log in, where to go to try it out, and even where to cancel it when your trial is up. Here is the video I made just to explain it all for you!

Happen to come across this video by accident? Don't have a coach that you're currently working with? Don't worry- you can STILL have a free 14-day trial. To sign up for that, simply go here. :)

Already ready to commit? People usually start with a challenge pack, because it includes everything you need to rock this fitness journey: fitness, nutrition, and support! 🙂

It includes those colored portion containers you may have seen me use? They make it super easy to make sure you're getting the right amount of the right foods, but still allow you flexibility in your food choices. It's a great nutrition program, that teaches you portioning and clean eating. It really simplifies things!

It also comes with a month's supply of Shakeology in any flavor, so you get that's awesome nutritional support every morning. I love it because it dramatically improved both my energy and digestion! Im a lifer. 

You'll also get a Shakeology shaker cup to go with it, and your online All-Access pass to Beachbody on Demand. That gets you all the workouts Beachbody has, from P90x to 21 Day Fix to the all-new Shift Shop, for an entire year. Beachbody on Demand is like the Netflix of fitness. I love it! The value is incredible. I've done wrokouts off my tablet at the park while my kids play, and on the beach while I was camping-- even without wifi. Having all of these is extra nice because when you finish your first program and get great results-- which YOU WILL!-- and are ready to progress, you already have all the tools you need.

Sweet Treat Solution: Vanilla Energy Bites

Part of being successful is knowing your weaknesses and being prepared for them. As I tell my challengers, "Fail to plan, plan to fail." This week I am planning ahead for my sweet tooth with these healthy Vanilla Energy Bites!

•1 scoop Vanilla Shakeology
•1 cup rolled oats
•1/2 cup peanut butter (or other nut butter, today I used Pb2)
•1/3 cup raw honey
•1 cup coconut flakes
•1/2 cup ground flaxseed
•1 tsp vanilla
**Add extra vanilla and some water as needed to make it stickier**

 
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl and use a small ice cream scoop or a spoon to portion. Roll them up and place onto a wax paper covered cookie sheet. Freeze and Enjoy! Store extra in the freezer or fridge no longer than 2 weeks.

For the Fix nutrition: 2 bites = 1 orange container. Now that's a great swap!

Id love to hear what you think! And please share this recipe with anyone who may want to try them out-- especially busy moms, because I know my kids LOVE THEM! For more info about Shakeology and its super dense nutrition, feel free to contact me anytime. As always, live healthy, live happy! Love, Amanda

5 Tips for a Healthy Easter Holiday!

It's a holiday! That gives us permission to binge out on candy, raid the kids' Easter baskets, and eat all sorts of junk, right? WRONG! While there are lots of temptations around this time of year, here are a few tips I use to keep myself from straying TOO far off track on Easter weekend. 

1: I don't buy KitKats! You see, those little sticks of goodness are nobody's favorite in this house but MINE. So when I'm shopping to fill the kids' Easter baskets, I have to be honest with myself. If I'm buying KitKats, I'm really buying them for ME to eat, not them. Giving yourself an honesty check when you're shopping will take you a long way towards staying on track. 

2: Fill their baskets with something else! My rule of thumb is to pick one or two treats the kids like and use those to fill their baskets. For instance, last year, they each got a mini-carton of rainbow goldfish, a treat they love that isn't candy, and one I won't be tempted to steal. I also hit the dollar store or the kids toy section and get them a new reading or coloring book and a small toy, maybe new hair bows or headbands for my daughter and a new toy car for my son. Not everything in the basket is required to be edible!

3. Moderation! Why do we feel the need to buy so much candy? Cram each plastic egg as full as we can? Buy ginormous chocolate carved bunnies? I got one bag of little chocolates and used that to fill their plastic eggs. Each egg got ONE chocolate in it. Set the precedent now and stick to your guns! You'll be less likely to have a bowl of leftovers hanging around tempting you over the next 3 weeks, and no one will feel deprived that there isn't a giant basket of chocolate on the counter come April. 

4: Decide ahead of time what your holiday indulgence will be! Every year, my mom makes French Crépes on Easter morning after church. We fill them with strawberries and top them with powdered sugar, and they are a part of my childhood I look forward to every year. I choose to make that meal my holiday indulgence, instead of chocolate. I don't feel deprived, I just feel smart. 

5. Your last tip is to remember the "reason for the season!" I know it's something we typically hear at Christmas time, but the same is true at any holiday. We are here, at least in my family, to spend time together. To celebrate Christ rising. To love each other. Not for chocolate. Remembering that will help you stick to your goals and take more time with the family, and less with the buffet. 

I hope these tips were helpful! Please, share it with someone you love who may need a few tips this holiday. Be sure to subscribe to the blog to never miss a helpful tip or recipe, and as always, live healthy, live happy. Love, Amanda
