What is Piyo??

In the most basic terms, Piyo is a glorious mix of yoga and pilates.

I was skeptical because it had none of my favorite workout factors - running, weights, jumping. However, I did the entire program and I was really amazed!! It toned places of my body I had ignored for far too long. It tightened things up so they didn't jiggle when I ran! And by the end of it, I was able to touch my toes and my downward dog had come a LONG ways from when I first attempted yoga many years ago.

Traditional yoga is not really my cup of tea, I do it, but I don't love it... Piyo has more than enough dynamic movement so I still feel a sense of serenity (and almost a touch of grace) yet I gained a lot of strength.

Here is a video that explains it much better than I can, showing you some of the moves and set ups!

September Beachbody Sales! Piyo and Shakeology!

Beachbody has some great offers to get Fall started off right this season!! For those interested in either Shakeology or Piyo (both are used and highly recommended by Yours Truly!), this month is perfect. Remember that there is a 30 day money back guarantee on all beachbody purchases if you are not completely satisfied, so don't let that scare you from jumping in with both feet. 

• PiYo® and Shakeology® Challenge Pack is available for $140 USD, regular retail price $160 USD. View the U.S.  promotion details.
• PiYo Kickstart and Shakeology Challenge Pack is available for $180 USD, regular retail price $205 USD. View the U.S. promotion details.
• 3-Day Refresh® and Shakeology Challenge Pack is available for $140 USD, regular retail price $160 USD. View the U.S. promotion details.

However, that being said - I believe you will only be satisfied if you truly put forth the effort to improve yourself! I love Shakeology and think it has amazing benefits, but I think in order to see the full benefits you have to put in a lil bit of work. Whether that be changing your eating habits or beginning a workout program or cashing in on that gym membership, every step makes a difference and you WILL fill different from the inside out. 

Challenge yourself, and your friends, to stop putting off the first step. Enjoy the journey, friends, it's a beautiful one.
