  BodyGroup Of The Month: Jamie Eason's LiveFit Trainer

  by BodyGroup Of The Month Jan 10, 2012

  Group Profile: Jamie Eason's LiveFit Trainer
  Group Founder: Dazzling Danielle
  Date Founded: August 23, 2011
  Number of Members: 1492 (as of January 10, 2012)

  Group Description:

  The LiveFit trainer is a simple 3-phase program for transforming your body and your life in 12 short weeks. Jamie's science-based approach combines exercise, nutrition and supplementation for results that far exceed what any of those tools could produce on their own. Better yet, you'll leave this program knowing how to pursue the fit lifestyle all on your own!

  Group Commitment:

  "Every member of this group committed to ..."
  Everyone who joins my BodyGroup will be committed to helping other members reach their health and fitness goals. This may be in any positive way possible. This BodyGroup is also a way to share meals, ask questions, stay motivated and hold each other accountable.

  Q: What is your BodyGroup about and who are the members?

  The Jamie Eason LiveFit Trainer BodyGroup is a group for anyone and everyone who is participating in the Jamie Eason's 12-Week Trainer Program. This is an unofficial group with intentions to provide support, encouragement, ideas and tips for others doing the program! The members are both male and female from all over the world. They are extremely motivating to each other, and work hard to accomplish their health and fitness goals!

  

  Why did the founder start the group?

  I started the BodyGroup so members of BodySpace would have a way to communicate and motivate each other throughout their journey! It's extremely important for those wanting to make it through Jamie's 12 week program to have someone to reach out to for motivation, answers to their questions and to compare stories with!

  What have your results been with starting the group?

  This group has seen great success since starting on August 23, 2011. We ended the first day with only 14 members. I had a goal of 1,000 members by December 31, 2011 and I definitely achieved that!

  How do your members use the BodyGroup feature?

  

  The members use the BodyGroup feature in a few different ways. First they use it as a way to meet friends with similar interests to add to their BodySpace network. This leads to help and motivation from those friends. Another way they use the BodyGroup is through the forum. This forum is full of questions, motivation, recipes, etc. Members can go to this section of the group to get questions answered and to hear others opinions and thoughts on many different topics related to the LiveFit trainer. Members also use the comment section as a way to communicate with everyone! It works similar to the forum; they get questions answered and also post experiences!

  Who are some of your notable members?

  Five of our most active members are:

  RitaTrue
  Lashawn2001
  MayraH26
  77Mel
  Peggyanns1955

  How would you explain to a new member the attitude needed in your group?

  I say the attitude needed in the group is a very positive, uplifting attitude. We are open to anyone joining the group and would love to add more positive people. The trainer is built to help create a fit lifestyle and that is something we all like to continue to preach in our BodyGroup.

  In what way has motivating other BodySpace users given you the ability to push yourself to new levels?

  Being the creator of the BodyGroup definitely made me a lot more motivated. I feel like it's extremely important for me to make sure everyone's questions are answered and answered correctly. Also I think that motivating them to keep pushing through their transformation is essential. I was doing really well on the trainer and unfortunately got really sick when heading into Phase III. This held me back but by keeping updated with the group I was able to get right back on track after taking two weeks off.

  What would you tell someone who is contemplating making a commitment to joining your group to motivate them to honor the commitment?

  I would tell them that Jamie Eason has created a program to help transform not only your body but your life. The trainer provides everything you would need from nutrition, supplementation, training and more. All these tools can help you exceed your goals and leave the program knowing how to live a fit lifestyle. The group is just an added bonus to help motivate and support you on your journey to a new YOU!

   

  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  How do you think the group mentality applies to your personal life and how has it helped?

  The group mentality is positive and full of people wanting to achieve their goals! In my personal life, it helps me to stay on track knowing that so many other people may be struggling with the same issues, such as time management, occasional lack of motivation, etc. I always think, if they can do it, I can do it!

  Why join your group as opposed to other transformation groups?

  I think my group is a key motivator for anyone looking to transform with the Jamie Eason LiveFit Trainer. Even if they aren't following the trainer to the full extreme they can still benefit from conversations with others.

  What do you feel is the best way to motivate others within the confines of the group page?

  The best way to motivate others within the confines of the group setting is by making sure that the group is active and always keeping people motivated. Also I think that by sending those very active members personal thank you packages helps keep them active and wanting to keep motivating others. I think it is still important to remind everyone in the group to stay accountable and keep their BodySpace up to date. Also I try to encourage them to add friends to their BodySpace page so they can create that positive network of people who are also trying hard to achieve their health and fitness goals!

  Jamie Eason interview: Get fit with her new LiveFit trainer program (it's free!)

  

  You’ve seen a few posts here about fitness model, Jamie Eason over the years. We met at the Arnold Sports Festival in 2008 and have stayed in touch since. I give her a lot of credit for opening my eyes about all the preservatives and junk in food. Now, Jamie has an awesome free 12 week fitness program through BodyBuilding.com – LiveFit Trainer.

  “This is an approach that I have personally followed for years and have had great success with when helping others, my family included,” Jamie tells FFTV.

  Jamie’s so personable, it makes the program enjoyable. And it’s filled with tons of detailed information and motivation to help you stick to it. My favorite part is the recipe videos – yum!

  Here’s more about the program from Jamie herself…

  FatFighterTV: How much will LiveFit transform people?

  Jamie Eason: My LiveFit 12 week training program is just that…a program to teach you to “live” fit, not a weight loss program, though the end result is often a decrease in overall body fat. I’ve found through the years that there are plenty of people willing to put in the work, but few people truly getting the results they had hoped for. I could see a trend of all or nothing with people all around me. They would dive into a diet and training program only to end up defeated and frustrated by the lack of results.

  With the LiveFit program, I have outlined a realistic nutrition program, complete with suggested recipes and an abundance of options to hopefully prevent boredom and to empower people to be able to devise their own eating plan. With the training, I created three phases, all with a specific purpose in mind.

  The first phase focuses on just weight training to encourage muscle growth, which is often hard for people to achieve because they tend to jump into both cardio and weight training all at once. This typically results in nothing more than cardio siphoning off the calories needed to really shape and tone the body. I always try and remind people, you can’t shape what you don’t have. Excessive cardio will help you lose weight but it will not lift and tone the body. In phase 2, I introduce some cardio to start the fat burning process, and by phase 3, we have likely built all of the muscle that we are capable of in that time frame, so the intensity kicks up and the leaning out process begins. The training shifts from building and shaping to stripping down body fat to uncover the hard earned muscle and definition.

  FFTV: Will participants all look as good as you after they complete the 12-week program?

  JE: Will participants look like me? That’s hard to say. This is a program of guidelines that have proven to show great results time and again, but the intensity and consistency are all your own.  Approach it half-heartedly and your results may be less than impressive. Tackle it with enthusiasm and a solid commitment and you could surpass me with your physique goals.

  FFTV: How important is the supplementation part of the program? Do participants have to buy the products for the program to be effective?

  JE: Supplements are great for filling in any gaps in nutrition, for convenience (think protein powder), and for maximizing your results. It is not necessary to buy the exact stack that we have outlined on Bodybuilding.com but it is there for convenience. We attempted to put together some of the best possible options, that I myself would take, to try and take the guess work out of what could benefit someone’s fitness goals throughout this process. There are plenty of other great options on the site to mention, but I tried to whittle it down to what I consider to be the most essential.

  FFTV: What’s the most important thing you want people to get out of the LiveFit program?

  JE: My hope is that the LiveFit trainer will provide a common sense approach to shaping and toning the body in a way that is both manageable and enjoyable. At any time in a person’s life, I hope that they will be able to look in the mirror, judge for themselves where they might be in the way of their fitness goals, like building muscle, maintaining, or leaning out, and be able to jump into one of the outlined phases, confident that if they stick with the program, they will get the results they are after.

  ###

  Jamie tells me the LiveFit trainer has had over 4,153,744 visits to its landing page since its recent launch, so it will now be a prominent and constant feature on BodyBuliding.com. Congrats to Jamie! You gotta check it out, guys!

  “My hope is that it is the last training program they will ever need!” ~ Jamie Eason

  Don't Miss Jamie on Lifetime's "The Balancing Act"

   

  Click here to watch the video!

  

   

  Nearly all women struggle to find the time to eat the healthy way and work out. They also struggle to stay motivated. It can be tough to keep your health-and-fitness goals front of mind when life's responsibilities always seem to be distracting you. How can you stay focused and in charge?

  
  

  FIRST, surround yourself with people who want you to succeed, and who will hold you to your goals. If you can't find supportive people at the gym, join an online support group like BodySpace. You can find others just like you, people with similar goals, similar challenges, and a desire to meet fitness friends and supporters. BodySpace even has a mobile app, so you can take your fitness friends with you everywhere!

  Join the world's largest online fitness community, with over 973,000 active, motivating members and free online tools to track your progress!  Join BodySpace Now »

   

  SECOND, always carry a quality protein-based snack when you're on the go. If you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail. People think they only need to worry about getting enough protein in their diet if they're an athlete or trying to put on 'bulky' muscle. Not true! Everyone needs enough protein in their diet. Unfortunately, most people fall short of their dietary protein needs. Protein is crucial for your health for many reasons. One of the most important is that without enough of it in your diet, you'll tend to overeat and become hungry faster. Only Protein makes super-convenient, quick-mixing protein sticks that you can shake up right in your water bottle. Plus, they taste great, without artificial sweeteners. They work for everyone!

   

  "Focus on improving your eating habits one day at a time. Whether the goal is to consume more protein or eliminate processed foods, making small improvements is a step in the right direction. With consistency, you will experience postive change that will hopefully inspire further improvements in quality of life, from exercise to personal relationships."

  Miss September 2010 Jamie Eason

  
  

  Miss September 2010 is fitness model, body builder, and writer Jamie Eason. She’s a stunning beauty and the hottest woman who could beat the crap out of you! This former NFL cheerleader is incredibly talented and has been on more magazine covers and photo spreads than most fitness babes could dream of. She gave us a great interview. Enjoy!

  Where are you from/live now?
  I am from Texas and currently still live there.

  What was your first “big break?”
  My first big break came when I entered a local figure/fitness competition and won the overall title.  A magazine editor was in the audience and asked me to shoot a fitness feature for their magazine that very same week and it took off from there.

  What is it about fitness modeling that excites you?
  I love fitness modeling because it promotes a healthy lifestyle and each booking that I get typically leads to exciting new relationships with really creative and incredible people.

  You’ve been on countless magazine covers. Which was the most influential in helping your career?
  I’d have to credit Planet Muscle Magazine for being the most influential magazine at the start of my career because I landed a cover with a 17-page spread inside, which is unheard of.  However, if I were to choose the magazine that guided the direction of my career and helped me find my place in the industry, it would have to be Oxygen Women’s Fitness Magazine.  I have been on the cover 4 times and I currently have a syndicated column in the magazine, called “Seize the Day,” that I am very proud of.

  What was the most exciting part of being an NFL Cheerleader with the Houston Texans?
  The most exciting part about cheering with the Houston Texans (NFL) would have to have been the performances.  I love the energy and excitement that comes with entertaining an audience. 

  Tell us about hanky panky going on between the cheerleaders and the players…
  Sorry to disappoint you, but no stories.  We were actually fined and put on probation for fraternizing with the players.
   
  How often do you work out?
  When I first started out, I worked out 6 days a week for about an hour and a half.  Now-a-days, I’m lucky to be consistent with 3 or 4.  I’m usually in the gym for no more than an hour and I prefer weight training with occasional high intensity cardio.

  
  

  What advice would you give to someone who wants to get started in getting fit?
  For someone starting out and wanting to get in shape, my best advice would be to focus on cleaning up your diet (unprocessed foods) and eating more regularly, preferably 5 to 6 times a day, on a consistent basis.  Without a proper nutrition plan, working out alone, will not give you the results you’re after.
   
  Do you ever feel like you’ve deprived yourself in some way (such as not eating birthday cake) to stay in shape?
  I never feel deprived with the way that I eat.  Once you adjust to unprocessed and whole foods, you really won’t crave the junk that you did in the past.  Also, I love to cook and get creative in the kitchen.  Just about anything has a healthier substitute.

  Favorite place on the planet?
  My favorite place on the planet is at the lake on our family houseboat.  It is so peaceful and relaxing and I’m surrounded by all of the people that I love.
   
  What do you do in your downtime?
  In my downtime, I like to travel and sight-see, spend time on the lake, experiment in the kitchen and shop.

  Describe your perfect night out. Are you a big partier?
  My perfect night out would be discovering a new restaurant in an area where we could walk around and check things out.  I am not a big partier at all.

  What do you think is your sexiest body part?
  I think my sexiest body part would have to be my eyes.  I like to play them up with makeup I am told that they are very expressive.

  Best or Worst pick-up line used on you?
   Best and worst pick-up lines?  I think most pick-up lines are pretty bad.  A few that I’ve heard are, “Screw me if I’m wrong, but don’t you want to kiss me?” and “I like every muscle in your body, especially mine.”  There was one, however, that someone used on me that I thought was pretty charming.  He said, “I don’t want to put pressure on you, but I think you are the key to my happiness.”  He got a date!

  Name someone you would love to meet.
  If I could meet and hang out with anyone, it would have to be comedian Daniel Tosh.  I think he is hysterical and that would be one heck of a fun day!

  Favorite upcoming projects?
  The upcoming projects I am working on are the “Jamie Eason Fitness Challenge” and a national commercial for my title sponsor, Bodybuilding.com, a fitness book project to be released early next year, a first of its kind fitness camp for 2011 and several other commercial projects with Iovate Health Sciences and AquaHydrate.  Please check out my column every month in Oxygen Women’s Fitness Magazine and to stay up to date, follow me on twitter at www.twitter.com/Jamie_Eason.

  Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
  In 5 years, I hope to be working from home and reeling in that mailbox money.

  Anyone who's ever been on set for a photo or video shoot knows there is a lot of stand-around-and-wait-time for technicalities (mostly lighting) to be just so. To keep himself occupied on set, Beverly Hills 90210 alum (and most recently Mr. Megan Fox) Brian Austin Green enjoyed a peak at Oxygen's newest Glutes cover. Check out Green's reaction to cover girl Jamie Eason's tight and toned posterior.

  10 Questions for Jamie Eason

  

  
  

  Bodybuilder and fitness model Jamie Eason has graced the covers of countless magazines including Oxygen, Muscle & Development, and Fitness. But her road to fitness fame wasn't easy.
  
  Her early career as an NFL cheerleader came crashing down when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. She battled back, but found herself riding a desk and out of shape.
  
  Now, after completely reshaping her body and her lifestyle she is one of the world's most sought after fitness models.
  
  CBS News asked Eason how she does it.

  
  

  What's Your Exercise Regimen?

  I love lifting weights because I know that building muscle is what gives me shape and definition. Cardio is my least favorite, though I do it anyway. To get away with doing as little as possible, I eat clean, wholesome food.

  Do You Eat Differently When Preparing for a Photo Shoot?

  Not so much. My plan looks like this before a shoot:
  
  6 a.m. - 5 egg whites and 1/3 cup oatmeal
  9 a.m. - 5 egg whites and avocado scramble with 1/2 grapefruit
  12 p.m. - 4 oz. to 5 oz. of homemade turkey meatloaf and a cup of greens
  3 p.m. - 1 cup fat-free cottage cheese topped with wheat germ and a few almonds with 1/2 grapefruit
  6 p.m. - Homemade turkey chili with beans over a cup of spaghetti squash and green beans
  9 p.m. - 5 egg whites with 1/2 cup chopped zucchini and 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter

  What Do You Normally Eat?

  I usually eat six times a day, at even intervals. This keeps my blood sugar steady and my food choices are so "clean" that they do not contain heavy calories.
  
  My daily meal plan looks like this:
  
  6 a.m. - Half a cup of oatmeal and five egg whites with chopped bell peppers and onions
  9 a.m. - 4 to 5 ounces of homemade turkey meatloaf with a side salad and cherry tomatoes
  12 p.m. - Five ounces of stir-fried chicken with half a cup of brown rice and steamed veggies
  3 p.m. - Two corn tortillas topped with black beans, pepper, onions and five ounces of grilled chicken.
  6 p.m. - Homemade Italian turkey zucchini burger with pita, lettuce and tomato
  9 p.m. - 1/2 cup fat-free cottage cheese with cinnamon, Truvia and a few almonds.

  Would You Date Someone Who Was Out of Shape?

  I honestly prefer someone who takes care of their body and their health. Not necessarily for the aesthetic reason, though that's nice, but more for longevity. I want someone who will be around for a long time so that we can cross items off of our bucket list together.

  What Would You Do If You Had an Overweight Child?

  I believe kids learn through example, so hopefully that won't be the case. I believe it is important to educate and empower children to make better choices by letting them choose and prepare their food or pick their own form of exercise/sport. I would also encourage regular sit-down meals with the family and minimize eating out.

  Are Men Intimidated by You?

  I don't know that they are intimidated, though a few little birdies have told me that some men I would have enjoyed going out with chickened out (on asking) because they felt they needed to be in better shape.

  Do You Ever Feel Like "Hiding Out" in Baggy Sweats?

  I am quite sure that I have never spent any sort of time at home in baggy sweats from feeling TOO attractive. However, a gnarly breakout or a hair color mishap has certainly induced a few days of hiding out at home.

  What Are Your Secret Vices?

  I'd have to say online shopping, chicken tacos, the Food Network and HGTV.

  How Are You Handling Fame?

  I have a fair amount of popularity, but I have hardly reached the status of fame. The best part of the notoriety has been that it gives me a platform to reach people who are interested in a fit lifestyle. The worst is that, though I would love to help and guide everyone, it can be overwhelming to try to do so.

  Living in the Now

  Jaime Eason, 34, is living in the now. "This is your life. If you are not who you want to be, change it! It won't be easy and it may take some time, but surround yourself with people who love and support you and go for it!"

  Supersede the Physical

  To look at Jaime today, it's hard to believe that she was ever out of shape with extra pounds, isn't it? If you want to get healthy, Eason says to remember that "adopting a healthy lifestyle far supersedes anything physical."

  Jamie Eason Pictures: Fitness Model on Top After Beating Cancer

  

  (CBS) We've all had our ups and downs, but few have had such highs and lows at such a young age as 34-year-old fitness model Jamie Eason.
  

  After a few entry-level office jobs following college, Eason went to work for her family's roofing company in Texas. But being chained to a desk was not for her, she realized.

  While managing a crew of roofers, she tried out to become a cheerleader for the Houston Texans  - and got the job. Life was going great.

  Great, that is, until she found a suspicious lump in her breast.
  

  It turned out to be cancer. She had a lumpectomy, and eventually all was well. Except that she had missed so many practices that she had to quit the cheer leading squad and had to take a job as a computer instructor.
  

  Four years later, she realized that she was what she calls "skinny fat."

  "I was soft and flabby," she tells CBS News. "I had cellulite. I drank Dr. Pepper and ate Goldfish and fast food almost every day."

  It was her wake-up call. She hired a personal trainer and visited a nutritionist, and the new and improved Jamie Eason was born.
  

  "Within a few disciplined months, my body began to transform," she says. "I felt physically fit and emotionally, I had a true sense of accomplishment and well-being."

  She won the first fitness competition that she entered, and since then has graced the covers of countless magazines including Oxygen, Muscle & Development, and Fitness.

  "I realized I had found a path for my life," she says.

Hot Clicks gets me through the stress of getting ready for a trip into one of the most dangerous parts of the world.

  Breakfast with Jamie Eason & Kris Gethin in Manhattan, NYC

  Posted on May 15th, 2010 by Kate Hurwitz in Body Building, Interviews

  One of the coolest things happened to Better Body Tips Blog. We were personally invited to have breakfast with  Jamie Eason, and  Kris Gethin at the Bryant Park Hotel, in New York.

  Jamie Eason is a renowned fitness model, writes for BodyBuilding.com and holds a syndicated column called Seize the Day! for  Oxygen Women’s Fitness Magazine, and Kris Gethin is editor-in-chief of  BodyBuilding.com and an accomplished writer, contributing to numerous publications.

  Jamie Eason and Kris Gethin are both major health and fitness professionals we have been following for a long time and were very excited to meet in person!

  One of the most interesting facts we learned is that Jamie Eason –who I must say is in the most amazing shape ever– does not do any cardio and believes solely in weight training to reach her goals.

  Jamie Eason’s approach is that the more muscle we have on our body, the more body fat we will burn!

  Now keep in mind this does not mean you will have huge bulging biceps! You can have a beautiful toned body by weight training and eating right. These are the two main factors to achieve a toned fit body.

  If you never heard of Jamie or Kris expertise and careers, click here to watch the video where they specially talk to Better Body Tips readers.

  Jamie Eason's Favorite App: AroundMe

  Fitness model Jamie Eason doesn’t slip up on her diet and fitness plan when she’s on the road – which is a lot – so naturally she’s got a few tricks up her sleeve. One of her favorites helpers the AroundMe iPhone App: In any location, the app will tell you about the nearest grocery stores, gyms, banks, hotels.

  The Texan native is constantly on the road for photo shoots, fitness competitions, and press meetings, but AroundMe helps her avoid fast food and gas station snacks in unfamiliar cities. It seems simple, but she says the app helps her keep tabs on places to work out and to buy healthy foods, even when she’s away from home.

  AroundMe is available for free on iTunes.

  Blisstree met with Jamie Eason and bodybuilding.com last week to share some secrets to staying in shape; check out Eason’s 3-hour diet plan, one of the easiest slim-down plans we’ve seen in a long time.
