What is a Beachbody Coach?



I've had several people asking me what exactly a Beachbody coach is and what one does.  Rob and Suzanne, this is especially for you!  After searching around the internet and looking in a few dictionaries and other sources, what I found to be the most common definition for a coach is: someone who tutors or trains. This is part of what a Beachbody coach does.  A Beachbody coach is not really different than any other type of coach.  A sports coach doesn't go to school to get a degree in coaching.  There isn't a Bachelors of Football, a Masters in Baseball - actually, here in Kentucky there might be a PhD in Basketball..... Anyway, most every person that coaches a sport does so because they have experience with that sport, they love the sport, and they want to share their experience and knowledge with others.  Maybe they played the sport at one time, or maybe they were a team manager, or a stat keeper in the beginning.  Beachbody coaches are the same way, there isn't a "degree" in Beachbody coaching.  Sure, some coaches are nutritionists, personal trainers, or even nurses and doctors but what makes a Beachbody coach is their experience.  A Beachbody coach has either experienced their own success and personal transformation with Beachbody programs using P90X or Insanity or TurboFire, maybe the new T25, and drinking Shakeology; or they are in the process of making their success story.  A Beachbody coach understands health and fitness based on their own experience, and they in turn want to share that experience with you.




A good Beachbody coach wants to help you reach your health and fitness goals and will help you set realistic goals.
A good Beachbody coach provides help, support, encouragement and motivation on a daily basis.
A good Beachbody coach is an educator who will answer your questions to the best of their ability or find another coach who can give you the answer.
A good Beachbody coach understands that people are different in their fitness and health wants, needs, and abilities and will coach on your level.
A good Beachbody coach values your long-term health and success more than looking good as a coach and realizes your health and fitness journey is about YOU and your goals.
A good Beachbody coach has an unwavering commitment to what is best for you.
A good Beachbody coach encourages you, listens to and seeks information from you to better tap into your internal motivation.
A good Beachbody coach is internally motivated, follows the program and sets an example for you.
A good Beachbody coach feels an obligation to health and fitness, loves helping others reach their goals and shares that love with you.
A good Beachbody coach feels privileged to be in the position to help others reach their health and fitness goals.



Coaching means something a little different to each Beachbody coach.  We all have our own reasons why we chose Beachbody.  I became a Beachbody coach because I like the complete approach; fitness, nutrition, support and accountability. I was a Weight Watchers leader for 10 years and loved leading the meetings, but I was only in contact with my members at the meetings. With Beachbody you get my support 24/7 through closed Facebook accountability or health and fitness groups if you want it.  With Beachbody, I feel like I can get back to the basics of helping others lose weight any time of day any day of the year and help people reach their goals while I keep myself accountable too.
