There's a Coach in all of us

I need help.  Okay, no comments from the peanut gallery on that one!  But I do need help, and not in the way you think.  Here's what I need help with - helping others.  Yep, pretty simple.  But I can't do it alone.  And I bet you are asking yourself just who exactly am I helping and why do they need help, right?  Good.

There's an issue out there that keeps getting swept under the rug.  It's an issue that is getting bigger and bigger everyday, literally.  It's an issue that most of ignore all of the time and some of us ignore some of the time.  It's an issue that costs the U.S. millions of dollars of year, for no good reason.  Still curious?  The issue is our health.  Gee, no secret there. 

When I mention your health or somebody else's health, why does it make you cringe?  It's almost taboo to even speak about it.  And to even mention that someone is overweight...whoa!  Look out!  Don't dare go down that path.  But why not?  Shouldn't we all care about each other enough to mention to someone - "Hey, I want to see you outlive me, so is there anything I can do for you?" 

Try it sometime.  Go up to someone and say that.  I bet you'd be surprised at their response.  Most,  if not all, of us are looking for answers.  Ever heard of the Ab Rocker, Thigh Master, Shake Weights, and all of the other crap that people buy looking for a hope and a prayer?  The problem is, those things don't work.  Why not?  No accountability.  No support.  No one there to talk to.  Just a product you buy, which then gathers dust in the closet.

So this brings me to the point of today's blog.  I need help.  You see, I work for a company called Beachbody.   And I'm a Team Beachbody Coach.  And my job is to provide the tools, support, and motivation for people looking to achieve results with their health and fitness.  Let me give you an example.  I recently helped a neighbor lose 25lbs. by using P90X.  Here's another one - a customer of mine used Shakeology and lost 22lbs, thus canceling his knee surgery.  I can go on and on.  I'm not a personal trainer.  I'm just someone who had great experience with a fitness product and I help point others in the right direction, provide answers, and give support throughout their fitness journey.  And that's why I love being a Coach.  Helping others get in the best shape of their life while getting rid of all the medication, pills, and diets they've been on for years - doesn't get any better than that!

The real reason I need help is that I cannot keep up with the demand.  Right now there are about 60,000 Beachbody Coaches across the U.S.  That number is projected to reach 1 million.  Yea, I know. 
With two-thirds of the population 30 or more pounds overweight, there's a whole lotta people that's gonna need our help! 

So this is a call to action.  I need you.  But I only need you if you are willing to help others while helping yourself.  This is not a get rich quick scheme either.   This is only intended for those looking to make a difference in the lives of others while getting healthier and fitter at the same time.  Do you get paid?  Absolutely.   And you get paid well.  But that is not the focus - it's the byproduct. 

So come join me as a Coach.  My team is driven, focused, and looking to end the trend of obesity across this nation - one person at a time.  Send me an email to buckmanjeff@beachbodycoach.com if you are interested.  I sure could use the help.
