    Since it's a Beachbody Challenge, it entails providing your contact information to a Beachbody Coach, who will attempt to sell you the best thing to put into your body, the miracle superfood (although it's a drink) known as Shakeology. If there's one overpriced bag of powdered tripe you try this year, make it Shakeology (DISCLAIMER: Users of Shakeology have been known to talk incessantly about Shakeology because, DAMN, if I had to pay over $100 for this, it should be worth it.......RIGHT?!?)

    If you proclaim that you do not have the monetary freedom to obtain Shakeology, you will be introduced to a glorious business opportunity where you can get a worthless label like "Coach" and you too can spread the word of Shakeology to your friends, family, neighbors.......hell, anyone who will sit still long enough to listen to you drone on about Shakeology (carry some extra rope or duct tape).

    After all is said and done, and you have preached the gospel of Shakeology, then and only then, you might begin to talk about fitness, exercise, and Beachbody Challenges, but only as a device to continue spreading the word (and "coaching" opportunity) that is Beachbody and Shakeology.

    This is the most succinct explanation of the pyramid scheme I've ever heard. Bravo!

    Yes to all of this!

    My friend is on this expensive, very expensive, program. She is thrilled she has lost about a pound a week. And I am very happy for her too.

    But I am skeptical about the value of Beachbody, 21 day fix. In three weeks less than her, I have lost more than three times what she has by using nothing more than MFP, the free support of all my wonderful friends here, logging and watching CICO.

    She says she needs the motivation of the fee and the wonderful Shakeology magic. That makes me feel sad for her.

    Funny guy.

    tripe
    trīp/Submit
    noun
    1.
    the first or second stomach of a cow or other ruminant used as food.
    2.
    informal
    nonsense; rubbish.
    "you do talk tripe sometimes"


    Laughter aside, yes it is a MLM scheme so buyer beware. I ordered Insanity and PiYo. They sent me 3 free chocolate Shakeology packets. When I ordered the PiYo on the phone Shakeology was mentioned but I made it clear I was not interested. I then explained that I had an established nutrition regime that I have been using for years. My coach never pressured me to buy Shakeology. I use their streaming videos for variety of workouts,MFP, and my Fitbit.

    Maybe taking the Beachbody Challenge is different. I love their fitness videos. I wish you well on your weight loss/fitness journey.

    true about the Shakeology- but we must give it to them for the workout programs are pretty good.
    If you let yourself fall into the pressure you will buy the Shakeology and you will buy the current expensive program.

    OR you can just go online and buy that older program that is on sale and get it for cheap.

    I bough Focus T25 that way and Body Beast.

    I finished Alpha T25 did 5 weeks and lost a good amount of weight.

    Yesterday I started Body Beast.

    Shakeology to each their own- but the workouts give results!

    This! Especially buying older programs on sale, that's how I picked up Les Mills combat and piyo, although piyo was newer but there was some promotion going on with it. I also have the slim in six series which isn't very exciting but it gets the job done.
