Beachbody Coach

Post by Evil Squirrel Overlord »

I am out running around today. Does anybody have any information on the Beachbody MLM?

Backstory: I bought a used copy of their P90x workout video, a now friend wants me to be a coach. I became suspicious when all I could find were glowing reviews, her uber-perky facebook posts, and a xtra normal videoshe posted about how "pyramid schemes are not schemes". Today's invitation to suddenly be a coach is making me wonder... luckily I am flat broke and have no time for such things.

Yes, and pyramids aren't pyramids - they're a few lines and angles arranged to look like a triangle.

I feel like making fun of overly-perky exercise nuts. Will look into this more later.

A quick Internet search leads easily to their web site. Whether or not they are indeed a MLM, they irritated me from the get-go with what I saw there.

Sounds like a great job title. Too bad the pay is a scam.
