PiYo... What's this all about?!

When I tell people what program I am moving onto next, I hear mostly every time, "Oh yeah! I've heard about that!!" But have you REALLY heard about it?! I've heard a few rumors that this program is close to the sell out point.. which is CRAZY!!! So... you know I had to get my birthday present a month early... after all.. I could't let that happen to me!






SO WHY AM I (and everyone else in the Beachbody community) SO PUMPED OVER PIYO?!

If you head back a few posts about why I LOVE Beachbody... It was this woman ^^^^ Chalene Johnson that got me HOOKED on the game, and HOOKED on Beachbody. I fell in love with her spunk, her motivation, and the types of workouts I was getting because of her... and how AMAZING I felt because of her passion as well. I am P R O U D to say that I am the owner of EVERY-DANG-SINGLE one of her programs, and love each of them equally!! (My heart will forever lie with Turbo Jam I have to admit..) 

WHO IS PIYO MEANT FOR?!

PiYo is for anyone who wants to increase flexibility, balance, lengthen and lean muscle.. and who doesn't want or maybe CAN'T do weights, or intense jumping movements. This a LOW IMPACT, HIGH INTENSITY workout... which means S E R I O U S sweat sesh without the crazy jumps and intense moves. Pretty much if you mix Pilates and Yoga together..... =PiYo

Did you know???
*by definition* Pilates can improve core strength and stability, improve posture and balance, improve flexibility, and aide in the prevention and treatment of back pain.

Because I have worked in Physical Therapy for quite some time now.. I have learned the IMPORTANCE of core strength to help protect our backs... which is an absolutely incredible, and essential part of our bodies... and when back pain arises, I have seen where it can be debilitating for some people. PROTECT YOU BACKS PEEPS! ....and not only does strengthening your core protect your back.... you can't complain about those abs! ;)
Yoga can help improve balance, flexibility, range of motion, and strength.... which means you are LESS LIKELY to injure yourself doing other types of physical exercise, even daily tasks. Yoga is a big stress reliever, and also helps with anxiety. Because Yoga can help manage stress, conditions like depression, high blood pressure, anxiety and insomnia can be improved as well. 

So mashing up the two sounds pretty dang good when you break it down like this!!!!!!

SO WHY AGAIN AM I SO EXCITED??

If I could take you back to conversations with my upline coach, and even my husband.. they would look like this.. "Because of my knee I can't do any of the workouts on such and such program.." or "I can only do upper body and abs on that program.." and I felt like not one of my workout programs fit to where I was at TODAY. Any movement like running, eliptical, jumping, squats, stairs, (you get the idea) would absolutely send my knee into a tail spin and I would be back to day one of LOW IMPACT type exercises... and to be honest with you, there was a time where I was really depressed about it. How am I going to get the workout that I NEED. I was to where I was doing the Pilates Fix dvd on the 21 Day fix program, and that was the ONE SINGLE total body workout that didn't hurt my knee. When I watched the launch promo for PiYo... I literately almost started to cry..(weird I know..) because I felt like my prayers had been answered, and the fact that I LOVE the woman that made the program herself, made it that much more exciting for me. I CAN'T do high impact crazy workouts like I used to.. but that's okay because PiYo is something I CAN do! Not to mention the way I feel after pilates makes me feel like I can conquer the world! ;)
