Hey good peeps... here's a little Vlog to keep you up to date on everything. We had a blast here in Japan... can't wait to come back. In the meantime, let's get FIT baby!!!!!! J

Rules

The Scheffy Challenge Rules

1. You must sign up with a coach within the Scheffy organization. All coaches will be displayed on the "Coaches" page of "The Scheffy Challenge".

2. Once signed up with a coach you must fill out the profile in the Team Beachbody site, take a before photo and upload it to your Team Beachbody profile, (before photos don't have to be taken half naked. You can take a fully clothed photo. Do what's comfortable for you, just make sure you have a before photo.)

3. You must log into WOWY 25 out of 30 days during the month.

4. You must log your *Accountability* daily in the specific thread of each month's challenge. That will look like:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meal 1: 1 cup oatmeal with 1 scoop protein powder and 12 blackberries

Meal 2: P90X Protein Bar

Meal 3: P90X Recovery Drink

Meal 4: 4 oz chicken breast, grilled, 1 piece of whole wheat bread, lettuce, tomato and 1 cup steamed brocolli

Meal 5: 20 raw almonds w 1 1/2 oz low fat string cheese

Meal 6: 4 oz salmon baked, 1/2 cup of brown rice, 3 cups romaine lettuce, 2 tbsp lite dressing


Exercise: Chest and Back, Ab Ripper X

You can also write any thoughts, feelings, etc. in the accountability but the mandatories are nutrition and exercise accountability

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We will give a cutoff date for entries which will be one week before the 1st of the month. That gives us enough time to work out any glitches such as putting up a list of entrants to make sure everybody who signed up is accounted for. We will post a list on the Scheffland site with all the entrants. If there's any problem just let us know and we'll work it out. That's why we should have a full week to sort it all out.

Once the last day of the month comes, we'll all vote on who gets the prize for the best transformation. As I eluded to earlier, I believe the winner of these contests will be a combination of physical changes, attitude and thought changes/evolution, participation (that's where the amount of days one logs into WOWY comes into play...) and levels of commitment/accountability. An example of that would be let's say 2 people start a challenge at the same time and they do pretty much the exact same thing(s) during the month. But let's say that one of them didn't want to put a photo up and maybe put something that didn't really show where they started from. Maybe a *headshot* instead of a body shot. You see where I'm headed with this? It's going to come down to "Who wants it the most" and that's pretty much what those of us who've broken through that barrier have discovered. Speaking for myself, I had to do something drastic. I *announced* publicly to my fans I was going to get in shape and that's because I knew I wouldn't be able to back out easily if I did that. Little did I know that was the first huge leap of accountability.

The last thing I/we want to do is embarrass anybody here. Do what's comfortable for you. I don't want to talk you into doing anything you don't want to. I'm just wanting to express my concept of how this thing will evolve and that's because I've seen it in the message boards of Team Beachbody. Those who REALLY put themselves out there, (myself included), have had the best results because of that.

That's another thing I love about the idea this will be recycling every 30 days. Maybe somebody doesn't feel comfortable putting photos out there just get through a month and get more used to it and then get more involved the next month.

That's pretty much it. Let me explain what this is all about. People have asked "How we do it... How we stick with it, etc." It's all about community. It's about showing up and being accountable. What you'll find is this amazing transformation that starts in the mind first and manifests itself in the physical body as time goes by. What happens is we see it in each other. That's what's so great about having a community paying attention to all of this and ultimately voting on a winner for each month. We see things in each other we don't see in ourselves.

This is all about finding our comfort zones and going beyond them to shake things up to really have a revolution individually. It's happened for many of us and we're here to share it with you. To help you find it yourself. I ask you to turn your brains off, make a decision and commit, like we did. I almost find myself suggesting taking direction but it's more subtle than that. It's just opening your eyes, seeing what people are doing, getting into it yourself and suddenly you're up and running! If you do that, I promise you you'll make a turn in your life and never look back. How do I know after only being into this a mere 9 months as I write this? Because I re-commit every day and it keeps me on track. THAT'S why I show up, to renew my commitment to myself and you guys because I've gotten a life I couldn't even dream. Oh, and if that's not enough... we're surrounded with some of the biggest Beachbody stars, people like you and me that were in the same shape as we are/were and they took this journey and now EVERYTHING has changed, for the better. Just look around, they're all here. We are in the presence of the super elite. Take advantage of that. We're not out there guessing anymore. It's all here in front of you. We're all here in the best of hands... welcome and settle in... Jason
