MY PELOTON STORY
As many of you know, Matt and I own a (totally epic) boutique gym in the heart of Downtown Burlington, ON called BENCHMARK FITNESS Burlington (check us out!)
My workout routine is very strength training dominant with a side of Pilates 3-4 times per week. I really love the compliment that Pilates brings to my BENCHMARK weight training routine.
BUT
Then Peloton came into the picture!
You want to know what makes my Peloton so extra special to me? It was FREE!
I’m not talking a ‘thanks for being a cool person’ free, I’m talking hard earned incentive free.
Big time L O V E for my Peloton!
I have a side hustle with USANA, a cellular nutrition company in the Network Marketing industry. I’ve had this business for about 7 years and have used these micro and macro nutrient products for 20 years. Yes, 20 YEARS! Amazing, I know.
The side hustle started as a passion project when I was in corporate marketing - a nice departure from my daily grind that allowed me to dive into things that I was passionate about - wellness and helping others feel their best.
Then this little side hustle grew…. and I started earning big girl dollars, weekly. Then I got recognized at our annual conference. Then I got awards. Then I earned free trips. It kept getting better and better!
Then they launched an incentive to kick off 2021 with healthy habits and had 3 tiers of earning potential in terms of the prizes. The Top 3 in Canada (and Top 3 in the US) would win a brand new PELOTON!
Now, I know I own a gym but this incentive had me FIRED THE F UP!!
I wanted that thing so badly!! Plus I’m kind of competitive…. so I also just really wanted to be in the Top 3 in Canada lol. Healthy competition that inspires action, right?
* spoiler alert*
I DID IT!
I finished in the Top 3 and got that beautiful bike!! My GOSH did it feel fantastic.
Now I will also add, the recognition and prize were a massive goal for me BUT I also helped so many people kick off their year with a focus on healthy habits, clean eating, high vibe energy and exercise. So all round it was GOOD VIBES!
I’ve been in a committed relationship with Peloton. I am so impressed with the community and culture that power house brand has created. I’m kind of obsessed with the app… from quick 10 minute arm + light weights classes to stack after a ride to the outdoor run coaching, I LOVE IT.
This brand has also inspired me in so many ways to RAISE THE BAR in WHO and WHAT BENCHMARK is as a brand and continues to be a leader in the community.
So thank you USANA for this incredible opportunity to help others and earn something so awesome.
And thank you Peloton for giving me all the feel good endorphins and inspiring me to take our business to the next level.
Oh and I love their slogan:
Inspire, empower, unite. Together we go far.
BOOM! Mic drop!!
