P90X One-On-One

We've changed the name of “One on One with Tony Horton” to “P90X One on One” because the entire concept has been upgraded -- effective now!

We announced at Summit that Tony Horton was developing “P90neXt”, a whole new series of 12 P90X DVD’s created to keep the Muscle Confusion going after you master the original P90X. Tony is developing the programs with new experts, new moves and a whole new level of results. And for the first time ever, One-On-One subscribers get to try them first as Tony puts it all together.

When it’s all done, it will be called P90X: MC2™, but for now, it’s between you and Tony to work out the kinks, one-on-one style. And customers who subscribe to the entire twelve months will get a special offer and be first in line to get the official P90X: MC2™ program when it is released!

How To Pay it Forward

In case you're wondering how to use that extra DVD you got in your July One-on-One shipment, Nancy Downard Schwertfeger sent me this story that is a great example of what we wanted to achieve. Thank you Nancy! That's what coaching is about right there!

I just wanted to share the experience I had with the Pay it Forward DVD today.

I'm an 8th grade teacher, and have an amazing assistant principal who is truly supportive and caring for her teachers. She is also 5' tall, and I'm sure weighs over 300 pounds. I have known her for over 6 years, and she's been involved with our 'Biggest Loser' club at school, joined the weight watchers program at school, and even walked the hallways with students after school hours. I know she wants to make changes.

Today I sat down with her and shared my P90X journey (I'm a grad, currently on round 2 doubles, have dumped 25 pounds, and developed strength and a new found love for myself!). Then I explained the One-on-One subscription that I receive, how I had the opportunity to meet Tony in Atlanta in June and how inspirational he is, and that I had received from Tony and Beachbody, a gift to pass along to someone that I care about. I passed the Pay it Forward DVD to her, shared Brian's story with her, and told her that because I care about her and her health, that I wanted her to find some time to push play.

She immediately broke into tears...she was so overwhelmed that I cared about her in such a personal way that I would want to give her the DVD. We spent some time talking about fitness, nutrition, my blog (http://personalsweatequity.blogspot.com), how you and Tony were in Washington D.C. meeting with congressional members about fitness and the health crisis of the nation, and about the promise of the future.

It truly was an incredible experience. I thank you and Tony for the opportunity.

Another Tony Horton One-on-One First!

As the "One Penny Promotion" for Tony Horton's One-on-One workouts ends its record-breaking run this Friday July 31st, it's time to look ahead at what he's got for us in August;



It's called “Core Ball Sandwich", a ball-based workout created when Tony was on a ski trip in Jackson Hole. Not only is this an incredible ab and core routine using a variety of balls to challenge his core from front to back, Tony brought the funny.

And with the August shipments, One on One subscribers are also first to get a taste of the brand new RevAbs program by Brett Hoebel called "Fire Up Your Abs". This workout is a 40-minute routine with a nice taste of real Capoeira. This is the real deal, and you are going to love it!



But the one-penny deal on Tony Horton's personal One-On-One workout expires Friday -- so get in now or you'll wish you did!

An Insane One on One

Time to subscribe to Tony's One-On-One!

Along with Tony's real-life workout series, where you get to follow along with the man as he trains in his personal gym, last fall we released a sneak peek at ChaLEAN Extreme to people who were subscribed. Then at holiday time, we shipped a bonus DVD with Tony and his helpers. But if you're a subscriber this May, not only will you get Tony's personal "Recovery 4 Results" routine, but the best bonus ever is about to show up in the mail.

We are releasing the entire Plyometric Cardio Circuit (42 minutes) from the Shaun T's new Insanity series along with the May issue of One on One!

Not a sneak peak... an entire workout. But if you're wondering what kind of workout would be called "Insanity", here is a sneak peek of this program that will light up the fitness world in 2009:



Insanity is the most intense and thorough cardio-intensive program ever set to DVD. We expect it to launch in summer 2009 with a base Configuration of 10 workouts, including:

1. Dig Deeper/Fit Test

2. Plyometric Cardio Circuit

3. Cardio Power & Resistance

4. Cardio Recovery/Max Recovery

5. Pure Cardio/Cardio Abs

6. Cardio Abs

7. Core Cardio & Balance

8. Max Interval Circuit

9. Max Interval Plyo

10. Max Cardio Conditioning/Cardio Abs

Plus it will include the Insanity Fitness guide (which will be brief... we want you moving, not reading!), the Elite Nutrition guide and Wall calendar.

Collector's Alert: A Beachbody First!

While subscribers are receiving Tony Horton's 1-on-1 this month, his soft and fluffy “Upper Body Massacre”, the biggest 1-on-1 anticipation is building for next month’s issue: “The Fountain Of Youth”

Tony put together an incredible hour of yoga, exclusively for the 1-on-1 program, and I think it’s one of his best DVD’s in the first volume.




But that's not what the hubbub is about... That disc will be shipped with another DVD, a first-of-its-kind Beachbody collector’s special for the holidays! Remember how the Beatles used to put out a special holiday message record for fans and collectors? That’s what this is, but Tony is the Beatles, and a little light-hearted fitness is the message.)

“Holiday Horton” and his two little helpers are shooting a special holiday-themed Ten Minute Trainer workout for December 1-on-1 subscribers only! It won’t be available for sale separately. It won’t be available after December. It will be shipped with the December “Fountain of Youth” yoga 1-on-1 shipment to subscribers.

So if you're a subscriber and you enjoy a little exclusivity, you'll love this holiday special.

Until then, enjoy the Upper Body Massacre (if that’s possible) and get ready for one of the most exciting months in the 1-on-1 series!

A Tony Horton Gun Show

Month four of Tony Horton's monthly One on One series could be called the ultimate glamour disc, because it's all about the arms, the guns. You're going to LOVE this workout!

The Simple Things, like "Killer Abs"

As complex as life can be, it's the simple things that add the color. I look forward to my Saturday morning with the latest issue of Business Week. I know that every night I get "my time" with the baby he's going to give me his laugh when I hold him upside down by his feet. And I love the monthly anticipation of what's going to show up on my doorstep with the next One-On-One issue. (And yes, I get it mailed to me just like everybody else)

I know the title, I've seen the promo, but until you put one of these babies into the player and take Tony on as he's goes through his personal routine, you're just collecting workouts. The last shipment was Road Warrior, an intense twist on Power 90 3-4 with some abs that made me cry like a 3 month old. (Oh, wait, maybe that actually was my 3 month old.)

September it's "Killer Abs". Killer Abs?... Killer? Will it just hurt or will it actually kill us? Or will my abs look so fabulous they shall simply end anyone who dare to gaze upon my six-packiness? Maybe a combo of all that.

Tony, Mason, and rockmaestro Jason Scheff are creating something special with these routines. If you have yet to subscribe, you don't know how close you can feel to America's #1 trainer until you get on his monthly program.

And I understand that in an upcoming shipment we're dropping a free preview DVD of Chalene's new extreme program which takes a cutting-edge approach to monthly phasing to get super-cut. You're only getting that preview if you're a One-on-One subscriber.

Like I said, it's the simple things right? I doubt we can classify Killer Abs as simple. But, it's wondering just what Tony's going to do and if I can keep up that adds a layer of fun to my workouts which keeps me interested. Nice work Tony!

And when they bring it, it shall get brung.

The NEXT One-on-One?

Yesterday the world joined hands and globally celebrated the fiftieth birthday of uber-trainer to the stars, Mr. Tony Horton. And yet he is the one who gave us a gift:

The release of "One on One workouts" with Tony Horton.

If you want to see Tony at his best, most intense, and least scripted, you've got to subscribe to the One-on-One workouts.

What happens is, every so often Tony calls up his buddy Mason Bendewald (director of P90X, etc.) and says "Mace, I just got a bunch of new rock and roll from Jason*, and I came up with a killer routine. Get your butt over here and let's shoot it."

Mason walks in, rolls camera, and Tony goes into "Bring It" mode, one-on-one style. It's intense, with a new one released each month.

If you're a member of TeamBeachbody.com, subscribe online asap so you make sure to get the very first workout, Plyo Legs. (non-members can purchase here... but why wouldn't you want to be a member of the coolest fitness community on the planet?)

And for all 5 people who read this blog, here is the first ever sneak peak at the next routine just created to ship for month two (August). They're all going to be classics!



Who says you can't push the boundaries? Honestly... this job is getting more fun by the week!
