Day 1: How to Transform Your Body in 84 Days

by Leave a Comment

I don’t know if I’m excited or fearful for the next 84 days in my life. Actually, that’s not true – I’m excited.

I’m excited because I’ve done it before and I know how AMAZING the outcome is. 84 days isn’t a short amount of time but it’s not that long either when you consider the massive transformation you can have on your body, your mind and your spirit.

Imagine waking up on day 84, looking in the mirror and seeing a new YOU. Not just physically but mentally. After all, you just completed a major accomplishment. You committed to an 84 day challenge of eating healthy and working out and you just won the gold medal of follow-through. Now you can see those abs, chest, and the place where those love-handles used to be.

Isn’t it sweet to taste victory?

Tearing My Box to Shreds!

About 14,992 feet from hitting the ground

I can’t believe you jumped out of a plane!

This was one of the many reactions I received upon returning from my 6-month adventure through New Zealand and Australia.

I couldn’t really believe it either. It seemed like just a few years ago I was too nervous to get on the rollercoaster in West Edmonton Mall because it went upside down. I never would of thought that I would be scuba diving in the ocean at nighttime or jumping off bridges in New Zealand.

When I look back on life as a kid and as a teenager I can definitely see little bits of the adventurous soul in me but nothing compared to what it is today.

One of the biggest leaps I made that began my journey of self-discovery was packing up my things and moving to another city. I was 20 at the time and was growing tired of the town I had grown up in. It was a rich town where everyone made heaps of money working in the oil industry but for some reason I just didn’t want anything to do with it. I had all these dreams bottled up inside of me of adventure and mystery. I wanted to explore the world and all the amazing things that exist beyond the place I grew up in. I decided to take a leap and move. It was an exciting time leaving home and living on my own in a much bigger city. I enrolled in business school and rented a place right across the street. Life was great. [Read more…] about Tearing My Box to Shreds!

Just in Time for the New Year: How to Transform Your body in 12 weeks

I’m not fat anymore!

It took me awhile to realize this.

I grew up as a chunky kid throughout elementary and junior high school and always looked at myself as being out of shape. Even after completing this challenge, I could barely see my changes until I looked at the before-and-after pictures. It’s amazing how our minds can trick us.

After college, I had gained an extra 20 pounds of beer and burger fat and finally decided to commit myself to the 12-week Body-for-Life challenge that I had wanted to do since I was 17. I made a promise to myself that this time nothing was holding me back. No parties. No alcohol. The 12 weeks would be one of my greatest challenges to date but one worth completing. [Read more…] about Just in Time for the New Year: How to Transform Your body in 12 weeks
