My Instagram Journey! #BeachbodyOnDemand
It’s finally here!!! As of March 2015, anyone with a Beachbody membership has unlimited access to Beachbody’s most popular workout programs on the market today! If you’ve been in a coma for the past few years, then perhaps you haven’t heard of Beachbody. But it’s highly likely that upon awakening from your coma at 3:00 am, that 1989 cathode ray tube television hanging in the corner of your hospital room may have been airing an infomercial marketing one of Beachbody’s popular workout programs. From P90X to Insanity to the 21-Day Fix program, Beachbody has cornered the health and fitness market like no other company in history; and thanks to the recent launching of Beachbody on Demand, anyone with internet access can shed some poundage and get ripped while on the go without the need for those pesky DVDs. That’s right! All you need is a computer, smartphone, or tablet with internet access, and voila — you’ve got instant access to Tony Horton, Shaun T, Chalene Johnson, and many others! It’s like Netflix for health and fitness! The entire Beachbody on Demand world has been launched by the same people that brought us Hulu, so we know it’s legit.
Immediately following the March launch date of Beachbody’s new online catalog of workout programs, the CEO of Beachbody, Carl Daikeler, challenged the Beachbody coaching community to take action by sharing Instagram photos while working out in fun and interesting places using Beachbody on Demand. The one stipulation was that there had to be a computer, smartphone, or tablet in the actual picture along with a caption that included the tag #BOD. Mr. Daikeler and his staff would then choose one winner each day during the month of March who would receive $100, and three grand prize winners at the end of the month who would receive $100 AND a brand new iPad! Needless to say, I was sold! I was so pumped about the contest that I started my first Instagram account solely for the purpose of winning that damn iPad, and I vowed to post one new pic every day for the final twenty-two days in March. Why only twenty-two days? Because I didn’t catch wind of the competition until the end of the first week of March. Now, I’d like to take this opportunity to share my Instagram journey using Beachbody on Demand. The hashtags aren’t clickable in this article, so stay focused, and buckle up, because this ride is about to get crazy!
Needing some time to cool off after yesterday’s mountainous mutilation of the #P90X #chestshoulderstriceps routine, the Jetster took to a little #plyometric super skating. #BOD
The Jetster is just doing a little one-on-one training with this classic #P90X #backandbiceps move. Don’t worry Mr. Kent. The workout is almost over. #BOD
One of the Jetster’s favorite yoga spots on the planet! Few locations are more peaceful than this little geological gem. #Stonehenge #BOD
The Jetster likes a little extra challenge with his #chairsalutations. #BOD
Don’t you hate it when someone interrupts you in the midst of a post-workout stretch? Come on, man! #BOD
Standing at the base of one of the greatest sculptures in the world inspires the Jetster to do some serious sculpting of his own! #Rushmore #BOD
Sometimes the Jetster needs some real-world inspiration for his #P90X #plyo ski sessions. #BOD
Alright, Senor Daikeler. You said to take some #BOD pics if you just happen to be in Cancun. Well…I’m in Cancun ☺#Cancun
Doing the #DeepSwimmersPress in the depths of the deep blue sea seemed like a good idea at the time… #BOD
Johnny and the gang just can’t seem to keep up with the #P90X #kenpo routine. Looks like only one of us is truly deserving of that coveted Cobra Kai patch. The Jetster could put all of these guys in a body bag! #TheKarateKid #BOD
#McConaughey takin’ a break between sets during his workout while the Jetster continues crushing some #CrouchingCohenCurls. #BOD
After swimming with sharks, kickin’ it with Cobra Kai, and playing some post-workout bongos with #McConaughey, the Jetster needed to find some inner peace. #Yoga #BOD
Looks like the Jetster is breakin’ the law. #BOD
Had a minor setback after the gun show. The Jetster got shrunk. Literally can’t even lift a blade of grass. Guess I’ll just pass the time with a little #Xstretch. #BOD
From the shores of #Cancun to the hills of #SoCal, the Jetster has gone international with his #P90X workouts! Where will he wind up next?!?! #BOD
With spring training on the horizon, the Jetster is taking his #P90X #Plyo workout back home to #Texas. Just getting warmed up before he and #JJWatt hit the weight room. #BOD
Felt like going a little old-school on #LegsAndBack day. Some people have a hard time keeping up with the Jetster. #BOD
Took the #Delorean out for a spin. Wound up in 1930. Seems like the perfect opportunity to do some #P90X2 #IntervalTraining. Look, @tonyhorton, I’m putting the sugar on a shelf! #BOD
The Jetster took a break from his workout week to do a little #ShouldersAndArms training. My client said something about wanting to do a full #P90X 90-day routine, but he’d have to wait til January of 2017 to focus on Beachbody. #excuses #BOD
Looks like the Jetster found a way to pass the time whilst waiting at #PearsonInternational in #Toronto. Just some sensible #CalfRaises at Gate A19 before heading back to NYC. Boarding in 5 mins! It’s “aboat” time, eh! #Canada #BOD
Looks like the Jetster is rock star hoppin’ his way to fame and fortune! #AmericanIdol #BOD
From the sandy shores of Cancun to the sunny hills of California, then onto the biting cold of Canada before heading home to the Big Apple, the Jetster was able to take his favorite #P90X workout routines from the Atlantic to the Pacific and back again. Thanks #BeachbodyOnDemand! It’s been a crazy 21 days! But not to worry…there’s still ONE MORE PIC TO COME before the sun sets over the New York City skyline! Where will the Jetster end his journey?!?! #BOD
Whew, what a trip! So many locations in just over 3 weeks! I figured I’d celebrate the end of this #Beachbody InstaRide with an old-school photo of the Jetster. People always say that I must’ve been working out in the womb. #proof #BOD
Now for the sad news…I did not win an iPad. I didn’t even win one of the $100 daily prizes. I know, I know. I’m as #shocked as you are. Oh well. What are you going to do?
