>> the following is a paid presentation, brought to you by beachbody, but filmed by me on my iphone and directly from my heart. >> hold up. i want to ask you a question. how do you feel when you look at yourself in the mirror? not so good. like, "ugh. gross." who is this person? like, you know you have to do something, but it's so confusing! there's fad diets, extreme workouts, and it's working for other people, but it is not working for you. you just want a system, a program that actually works -- hello! -- that doesn't feel like punishment. girl, i got you. >> announcer: introducing piyo, the best of pilates and the best of yoga fused together to create a body-sculpting and weight loss miracle. i am 40, and i have a better body than i did when i was in my 20s. i lost 43 pounds, and it took only about 30 minutes a day. >> but i never thought that

that was ever going to be a thing or this or this. i lost 26 pounds and 20 inches. this program gives you results. >> the secret? i've combined the best of pilates and the best of yoga so you get long, lean muscles and flat abs, but here's the game-changer. i fused it with low-impact cardio sequences so you get a fat-burning workout at the same time! and it's doable! people are having so much fun! and the best news, the stuff that makes me so happy -- women across america are getting amazing results. >> after doing piyo, i lost 63 pounds. >> 41 pounds. >> 81 pounds. >> 43 pounds. >> 44 pounds. >> 12 pounds. >> 32 pounds. >> 46 pounds. >> 60 pounds. >> 58 pounds. >> 30 pounds. >> 65 pounds, 54 inches, and i went from a dress size 24 to a 16. >> so if you're fed up with extreme workouts and fad diets that you never finish or buying fitness equipment that you'll never use... hey! don't go anywhere because piyo's so cool, and it's

completely unlike anything you've ever seen before, and that's why you're gonna love it! and it's so perfect for you! and i also want to share with you how you can take advantage of my free piyo offer. >> announcer: chalene johnson has revolutionized the fitness industry by turning her lifelong love for health and fitness into a phenomenal success story. she's a new york times best-selling author, lifestyle entrepreneur with millions of online followers, and has sold millions of best-selling fitness dvds. >> yeah, i've been doing this a long time. and with that experience comes knowledge, personal knowledge. i know you -- we don't have to punish our bodies to have an amazing body. molly, you're in my shot. that's why piyo's my favorite workout i've ever created. the workouts are shorter, you don't have to jump around, there's no equipment, and you can do it in the comfort and privacy of your own home. i'm a midwest girl, so the deer heads up on the wall in this next story, i didn't even notice them. all i noticed was her results.

>> i was able to pop in the dvd and do my workout. i never thought that i would have been able to lose the weight that i did. with piyo, i've lost 15 pounds and i feel amazing. >> i've never tried yoga, i've never done pilates. i started slow. i kept at it. it changed my body. thanks to piyo, i've lost 43 pounds. i am in skinny jeans at age 64. [ record scratches ] >> i know what you're thinking. how is possible that people have these amazing results from yoga and pilates? they didn't! they got these amazing results from piyo. >> piyo has definitely changed my whole life. who knew, without weightlifting, that i could, like, get real strong muscle? >> you just need you and your bare feet and a yoga mat. i lost 58 pounds. >> i ended up loving the fact that i could work out at home at my own pace, and i just used my own body weight in my own living room. >> the fact that your feet stay on the floor, you're not jumping around, you're not jarring your

body in any way... >> and this really was so low-impact that i was amazed when i saw the results. >> it's me again. piyo fuses together more than just pilates and yoga. it fuses together athletic movement -- all low-impact, even things you've never seen before that are completely unique to piyo. and because of that, piyo takes care of every single mode of fitness that you need. you know you need strength training and you know you need cardio and you know need flexibility, but who's got the time for all of that in one day? piyo takes care of all of that in one workout. >> the awesome thing about piyo is it works your entire body -- your upper body, it works your abs, your buns, your thighs. it works everything. i lost 24 pounds and i've never felt better. >> yes, the workouts are incredible fun -- hello, it's me -- and they're super effective. they're tested, they're researched, they're proven. but you and i both know -- you need a plan. what you get today is a 60-day complete program. i give you seven amazing piyo

workouts, one for every day of the week, so you never get bored. you also get my 60-day workout calendar. just follow along and you'll know exactly what workout to do on what day for maximum results. oh, and p.s. -- it is my pet peeve when i see these workouts that, like, nobody can do. so i made sure that there's a modifier. the modifier, who's my friend michelle, is going to be there with us for every single workout. so you don't have to guess. and why is one of my dogs in every single shot? the modifier just made it easier to be able to stick with the workouts. being overweight, i couldn't turn different directions or make different moves, but having a modifier definitely made things easier. i lost 44 pounds and dropped four pants sizes, and i feel fantastic. >> you know what i love almost as much as piyo? food! food. like, life is too short not to enjoy your food 'cause if you're gonna get amazing results, you -- you have to know what to eat and when and why.

you have to know the right food to eat and how much to eat. and they don't give you a plan at the gym. they send you on your way! and that's why i've created a get lean eating plan. >> it's absolutely not a diet. i just learned how to make healthy swaps and really turn it into a lifestyle change. i lost 14 pounds and i am in the best shape of my life. >> at 50 years old, i was at a point where my back was so bad, i couldn't do anything. and then the emotional eating comes in because now i'm depressed, so i'm eating. and it just snowballed. piyo is the only exercise that my body will tolerate. you're moving from one position to another, and it's just really graceful. following the nutrition guide that comes with piyo turned out to be the best decision i ever made. when i started to pay attention to what i was eating, doing the combinations, and the amount, the weight just started to fall off. since starting piyo, i've lost

32 pounds, and i am in the best shape of my life. i feel fit, i feel happy, i feel healthy, i feel awesome. >> you're probably asking yourself -- when am i gonna have the time to do this? i get it, i'm a mom, i have a husband, i have a business, i've got three dogs and two teenagers -- it's my full-time job to embarrass them. but if we're gonna take care of the people who matter the most, we have to take care of ourselves. >> i would say around 270 pounds was probably the heaviest i've ever weighed myself at. being a mom overweight is a struggle. you need a lot of energy, and i just didn't have that, and so i quickly realized that my weight was getting too out of control that i wouldn't be able to take care of my children. it was overwhelming at first, trying to figure out -- what am i gonna do for exercise? so i had to find something that was low-impact that i could do 'cause i knew it was something i had to stick with. i was so excited when i received piyo in the mail and saw that it just wasn't a disc full of workouts and that's all it was.

it had so much more. it had a meal plan, a nutrition guide, and it came with a detailed workout guide that told you what workouts you would do every single day. so, after the first round of piyo, i lost 25 pounds and kept going to lose a total of 81 pounds and have a body that i never imagined that i would have. for someone just starting out who's overwhelmed with what to do, where to start, piyo's the perfect program. i love piyo and it will always be a part of my life. >> kristin's story is amazing. all of these transformations blow me away. piyo works! and now it's your turn. grab a pen and a piece of paper because today, beachbody has an offer for you you don't want to miss. >> announcer: are you ready for a low-impact workout that gets you incredible results like these? >> thanks to piyo, i lost 43 pounds and it took only about 30 minutes a day. >> announcer: introducing piyo, from celebrity trainer and fitness expert chalene johnson. >> i've taken the best of pilates with the best of yoga

[ whispering ] they say if you really want someone's attention, you should whisper. well, i'm about to drop -- [ normal voice ] a truth bomb! put whatever you're working on down. send the kids out of the room. shut off the music. this is huge. it's not because you're getting older that you're gaining weight. it's because you're losing muscle. and when you lose muscle, it slows your metabolism! but who's got the time to do cardio and strength training and flexibility training? nobody. that's why i created piyo. let me explain how this works.

low-impact piyo moves like this are designed to help you quickly improve flexibility. unlike other stretch workouts, you're always moving in piyo. that dynamic flow is how piyo delivers a calorie-burning cardio workout, and there's no equipment. you use your body weight to sculpt lean muscle, burn more calories, and sweat off the fat. so whether you're 29 or 59, it's never too late to transform your body with piyo. >> i was 59 years old and i couldn't even look at myself in the mirror because i didn't like what i saw. i didn't like how i felt. we're taught "that's what your body's gonna look like," and we believe it. i chose to just push play and see what happened. the minute i tried piyo, i loved it and i felt successful. i was shocked at how much weight i was able to lose. i am beyond grateful for piyo. it saved me.

i turned my life around. with piyo, i have lost 53 pounds and i feel like the sexiest nana in the world. >> seriously right now? this is the point in the show where they would hire a bunch of fitness models to show you the moves. we have a better idea. ew, stop making that noise. it's so gross. okay, cathy and i are gonna show you why piyo is so different. so, cathy, just show them a traditional warrior stance, which is something you would do in yoga, and we'll take the arms up -- and you might hold this pose for, like, a long time. and obviously your body's not moving, so we can't expect to be burning a lot of calories. that's why we add dynamic movement. so go ahead and show them what we do in piyo. so, take the arms all the way down and up. now we're using upper body, lower body. she's strengthening inner thigh, outer thigh, quadriceps. you can see it taking in her core nice and tight. arms are working, back leg is working -- the whole body is working together. and that's why you burn so many more calories when you're doing

piyo. now we're gonna show you what you'll see in a traditional pilates class and how piyo is so different. so, cathy, go ahead and lay all the way back. and i want you to take your hips up in a bridge like you would in a pilates class. and traditionally, you might just hold this pose or pulse -- small movement, small muscle groups -- but in piyo, we add dynamic movement. so why don't you go ahead and show them what that would look like, cathy. so we pull the knee in and press out. this dynamic movement works her glutes, her core, her quads, her hamstrings, and the arms -- all at the same time. that's how you burn more calories, that's how you burn more fat, doing piyo. okay, so now you've seen a grandma do the workout, you've seen someone who had 80-plus pounds to lose do the workout. all of them got amazing results. but what about you? you want something more. you want a bikini body. is that gonna happen? um, yes! #serena. >> i woke up one morning and i realized the entire week, all i had worn were sweats.

and i just started to cry. and i knew that i needed to make a change. from the very first time i tried piyo, i literally fell in love with it. you're not holding things for longer, you're constantly moving. so you're getting this, you know, cardiovascular workout while also strength training while also getting flexibility training. it's like the best of the best rolled into one. i never thought that i would look this good ever. i was shocked! shocked that my body was able to do something that i thought you had to kill yourself in the gym to get! after doing piyo, i lost 26 pounds and 20 inches. it makes me feel like a superhero. >> i gained probably at least 50 pounds within a year. i wasn't exercising and i was not eating well. it just crept on and it just kept coming. my fiancé proposed to me, and it's all on video. i'm huge and i hate the way i look. the more i thought about being in my wedding dress and being in all these pictures that my

family's gonna look at for the rest of my life, that's what really got the ball rolling. i love working out with piyo. piyo makes it easy for me because it shows me what to do, how to do it, how long to do each move, and it takes all the guesswork out of it. with piyo, i've lost 28 pounds. i feel amazing. when i was heavier, i was so nervous about not looking my best on my wedding day, but not anymore. now i'm ready to find that perfect dress and get ready to rock my wedding photos. thanks, chalene. you made it all possible. [ humming "here comes the bride" ] ashley, if you're thinking about asking me to be your maid of honor, there is still time. but, girlfriend, time is running out in this show. and i really want you to try piyo. now, i've been creating fitness programs for over 25 years. but the truth is, i'm creeping up on 50, so when i realized so many women just like me were searching for a low-impact

workout that could deliver incredible results without pounding their joints, that when created piyo, the best from pilates, the best from yoga, and then i added dynamic movement for a fat-burning cardio workout at the same time. but i have to tell you something -- in the beginning, i just designed this program for one person -- me. this didn't happen overnight. it took me years to get piyo just right. and once piyo started to work for me, i took it to gyms and fitness clubs so other people could begin changing their bodies with piyo. now it's my most popular workout program, and people pay hundreds of dollars for 60 days of piyo classes. so when beachbody asked me if i would make this workout program available to people at home at this crazy-low price, i was like, "yes!" i mean, this is a great opportunity. everything you get in this program would be a steal at $100. but my mission is to help get

you results -- lasting results, like the women you've seen today. and i love that beachbody's making this so crazy-affordable. but i have one ask of you. believe in yourself and do it. and i'm so sure you're going to love your results, i've convinced beachbody to extend their normal 30-day money-back guarantee to a full 60 days. so you can try the entire program risk-free. and if you're not 100% satisfied for any reason, just send it but this is a pretty crazy offer, and i really have no idea how long beachbody's gonna run this promotion, so do not wait. make the decision to do piyo today. >> announcer: piyo is not available in stores and never will be, so call now and get the entire 60-day piyo program, a $430 value, for only three payments of $19.95.

>> i found that the weight was like having an elephant on my back. doctors kept telling me that i needed to exercise, and i never fully understood that because exercise hurts. i chose piyo because it was low-impact, gentle moves, and there was a lot of core strength, and my hope when i had started it would be if i strengthened my core, then it would help me with my back pain. it felt incredible to get through that first workout. it was modified, i couldn't perhaps get through every single number of reps that was being done, but i did it, and it was like fireworks going off. it was very exciting. after doing piyo, i lost 63 pounds. i have the body that i had when i was a teenager. [ laughs ] >> jonie looks like a totally different person, and that's

because i give you everything you need to get amazing results. results like this. meet rachel. >> when i began piyo, i was skeptical. i literally said to myself, there is no way that this stretching stuff is gonna make me lose weight. and at the end of the first week, i knew that this was the answer. piyo does not require any equipment -- no weights, no bands, nothing. i could do everything myself in the comfort of my own home. truly anyone can do it. i have lost 65 pounds and i went from a dress size 24 to a 16. >> i'm jaime and i'm 40 years old and i'm a travel agent and destination wedding planner. my type of job is really, really high stress. so i ate poorly, i didn't exercise. when i looked in the mirror, i was really embarrassed. i couldn't recognize myself. it wasn't me anymore. and i knew i better make a change 'cause it's downhill from here. with piyo, it was incredible, the changes i saw in my body.

it was the first time i've ever worked out that it was able to lift everything and gets it toned, and i don't even have to worry about going home. i can literally just pop it in and i work out in my office. >> i feel like piyo turned time backwards. i feel more vivacious. i feel like i'm in my early 30s. >> with piyo, i lost 43 pounds and i feel like a whole new person. piyo makes me feel like i can conquer the world. >> 60 days from now, you can completely transform your body. i give you a complete 60-day plan. everything you need. why not start today? i know you have your cellphone out, so here's how to order. call today. why does it always have to be about you? >> announcer: introducing piyo, from celebrity trainer and fitness expert chalene johnson. >> i've taken the best of pilates with the best of yoga and then fused that with low-impact cardio sequences so you get a body-sculpting workout that burns fat at the same time!
