If you are looking on sites like Craigslist and Ebay for discounted new copies of P90X, Insanity, Brazil Butt Lift, or any other Beachbody program and think you’re getting a deal, be prepared to receive an illegal, unauthorized bootleg of the video program.  Why is that you ask?  Only Beachbody, and Independent Beachbody coaches are authorized to sell these products and must do so at the full retail value.  Most of the time what you’ll find online are low quality pirated DVDs that are not chaptered for easy navigation, with no warranty or return guarantee so what you get is what you get regardless or it’s condition or effectiveness.  Plus you’re most likely either not going to receive the printed program and nutrition guides, or may just get links to a PDF file to print out yourself.

This is why all the cheap discounted copies you see are actually just copies.  Plus they don’t come with 100s of pages that make up the program and nutrition guides.  They’re most likely not chaptered for easy navigation, and there’s no warranty or return guarantee so what you get is what you get regardless or it’s condition or effectiveness.

When I originally purchased my copy of the P90X workout program I ordered it off the Beachbody website, www.beachbody.com and paid the suggested retail amount of $119.85.  I do not particularly enjoy paying full retail and usually surf the web for the best price I can get, but for some reason I didn’t even look at Craigslist or Ebay for copies.  In 90 days I reversed the effects of 10 years of terrible eating and failed exercise programs and for that Beachbody deserves full credit for developing and marketing this phenomenal fitness product.  If I had to do it all over again, I still would order it directly from Beachbody, but would shop through the Team Beachbody website instead.

The good news is there are three ways to legally purchase P90X and other Beachbody products for less than the full retail value.  In addition, Beachbody is now offering FREE bonus workout videos is you shop through their Team Beachbody website.  These bonus workouts are in addition to what you see advertised on TV (yes, even on top of the already advertised bonus workouts) and they are not available through the informercial phone numbers or Beachbody’s main website.

1)   Set up a Free Membership with Team Beachbody and shop through the Team Beachbody site and you will get cheaper shipping on your order.   If you order directly from Beachbody’s main website or call the 1-800 phone number advertised on their commercials, you will pay $19.99 shipping for the higher priced programs like P90X or Insanity. If you sign up for your free membership first, and then place your order through the Team Beachbody website, you pay less than half for shipping. The free membership to Team Beachbody is available to anyone. You do not need to be a customer or make a purchase.

In addition to cheaper shipping, your free Team Beachbody membership includes access to the WOWY SuperGym and daily prize giveaway, your own personal success coach, access to the Beachbody message and support boards, and the Beachbody weekly email newsletter.

2)      Join the Team Beachbody Club.  As a club member you get a 10% discount on all Beachbody products.  You also get personalized a meal plan, access and expert advice form the Beachbody trainers, exclusive video content and more.  The cost is just $2.99 a week, billed $38.87 every three months. You can cancel within the first 30 days for a full refund or anytime after that to avoid future charges. Click here to learn more.

3)   Become an independent Beachbody Coach.  There are many rewards, both financially and physically from becoming a Beachbody Coach.  First, you get a 25% discount on all Beachbody products.  As a one time bonus new coaches are allowed to purchase a “Showcase Pack” for $199.  This package includes six of the all-time top selling products for 50% off.  So, you could get a product like P90X, plus 5 more Beachbody programs for not much more than the cost of P90X alone.  When you become a coach there is a one time start up fee of $39.95 and thereafter you are billed $14.95 a month.  There are so many other benefits of being a Beachbody coach, so click here to learn more.

Remember, with any of these three you’ll get the additional FREE bonus workouts which are only available through the Team Beachbody website.  Currently only P90X and Insanity are offering bonus workouts, but knowing Beachbody I’m sure there will soon be bonus workouts for many of their other programs.
