After an hour on the phone I was even more excited to get started, and Tyler and Mimi Ford were going to be my official 90-Day Challenge sponsors (what can I sponsor next, right?). Tyler wanted to help me set goals for myself, have supplements/products at my disposal and be a coach in my corner to cheer me on. Tyler, and his awesome wife Mimi, were Body by Vi coaches, but had no interest in trying to sell me on anything. Shortly after my virtual proclamations, a previous business client named Tyler Ford emailed me. It all started with a public declaration: I sent out a tweet that I was fed up and I put a post on Facebook that said I was determined to take action. I had just turned 30 years old (May 15, 2012) and knew I wanted to do something to get back in shape.
I figured if 90 days was working for lots of other people, it wouldn’t hurt to try it for myself. I thought I knew what eating healthy was, I thought I knew what a good workout was, and it’s obvious that I was wrong and let those things slip away.Īlmost everyone has seen a friend do some sort of health and fitness challenge, and heck, I have to say I was super inspired when I read David Siteman Garland’s 90-Day Transformation. I used to be a gym rat when I worked a normal 9-5 job in 2004-2007, but when I started my IWearYourShirt business in 2009, fitness and nutrition took a backseat.
I played basketball at the collegiate level in the early 2000s, but those days were left behind when I tore both ACLs in my knees. Why Did I Do A 90-Day Challenge In The First Place?įirst and foremost I’d like to admit to you that I used to be in pretty good shape in my 20s.
