#mbf & #mbfa
Here we go. It’s time once again.
Our newest program is almost here and it’s SO GOOD. I just completed week 1 and I LOVE this program!
It’s called Muscle Burns Fat, aka #mbf. Megan Davies has upped her game with this one, and I’m so ready to level up with her!
And the new BOD ropes — they’re NO JOKE! (have you heard about these yet?! If not keep reading and I’ll fill you in!)

Who is Megan Davies?
Megan Davies is a personal trainer with a motivating and simple workout style. I love her positive personality. She makes it easy to follow along and keep going during a workout. Megan has experience training clients and holds certifications from NSCA and CPTS. She’s even opening her own gym!
Megan won THE 20s, a Beachbody fitness reality show. Following the show she created Clean Week, a program that helps you create healthy habits in just 7 days.
What are #mbf & #mbfa?
#mbf (Muscle Burns Fat) and #mbfa (Muscle Burns Fat Advanced) is a 2-part program. These two 3-week programs are designed to be completed back-to-back and include 42 unique workouts, so you’ll never complete the same workout twice.
You’ll start with #mbf, a beginner/intermediate level workout, and throughout those 3 weeks, Megan will push you, train you, and get you ready to take on the more intense challenges in #mbfa!
What can you expect from the workouts?
During both programs, you’ll have the same type of workouts — #mbfa will just up the intensity! The workout moves are set to the beat of the music to push you harder! Here’s a little bit of what you’ll see each week...
Monday, Wednesday, Friday = Strength Days
These are our strength training days — you’ll have:
Lower Body Burn
Upper Body Burn
Full Body Burn
These include classic weight lifting moves that you’ll probably recognize if you’ve completed any of our other programs. But you’ll also see more asymmetrical moves (weights in 1 hand instead of 2 to purposely throw your body off balance & build core strength!)
Tuesday, Thursday = Cardio Core Days
Not a cardio fan? Cool. Because there are only TWO days of cardio! YESSSS, thank you. And it’s mixed with core moves (hello, abs!) so we’re not doing cardio the entire time! There will be:
Core Circut 1
Core Circut 2
These include something called an AMRAP (as many rounds as possible) challenge at the end where you aim to beat your personal best each time.
Saturday = Power Ignite (EMOM)
Have you heard of EMOM workouts? I definitely had to look this one up, and apparently it’s pretty popular… it stands for every minute on the minute. Basically, you have to complete a specific number of reps in every minute – each minute the move changes!
The Trick: complete your reps FAST (but safe, of course), and you’ll get to rest for the rest of the minute! The quicker you go, the more downtime you get to recover!!
Sunday = Dynamic Recovery
Finally — we’ll need it! This is our active stretch & flow recovery class.
Plus, there are a few bonus workouts!
On-The-Go Workouts:
These are no-equipment versions of the workouts designed to help you stay on track when you’re away from home!
Bonus #mbf & #mbfa Workouts:
You can add these short 10-minute workouts onto any day for an added challenge!
What equipment do you need for Muscle Burns Fat?
There’s not much that you’ll need for this program, but there is 1 new piece of equipment — the BOD Rope.
Alright, what is is a “BOD Rope?”
It’s an ultra-convenient indoor cordless jump rope with weighted handles! Don’t have one? No worries, I didn’t either before I started. But when you purchase the program they’ll be available for you!
What else is required for #mbf?
Light, medium, & heavy weights
Yup. That’s it! And, as with most of our programs, the exact size weights you choose to use are totally up to you and depend on your current strength. Not sure what to start with? Shoot me a message!
#mbf Nutrition
For the first time ever, both the Ultimate Portion Fix and 2B Mindset digital streaming nutrition programs will be included in all Shakeology Challenge Packs, Performance Challenge Packs and Deluxe Challenge Packs so you truly have the total solution.

Challenge Pack Options
New Beachbody Members Without Beachbody on Demand
Let’s talk pricing and options! If you do NOT have a current Beachbody on Demand membership, you have the option to purchase the Shakeology Challenge Pack, the Performance Challenge Pack or the Deluxe Challenge Pack. Shakeology is our superfood nutrition shake that you can use to replace one meal or snack per day. This is NOT a protein shake. While it does contain protein, it also contains vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, antioxidants, adaptogens, fiber, pre and pro-biotics, and digestive enzymes.
If you are more concerned with having energy to get through the workouts and not being so sore that you can’t do the next day’s workout, the Performance Challenge pack would be perfect for you. It contains our pre-workout drink, Energize, and our post workout drink, Recover. Recover helps to speed recovery and reduce exercise-induced muscle soreness. Key ingredients include high-quality time-released proteins to support muscle recovery, an optimal ratio of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) to help build muscle, just enough carbohydrates to stimulate muscle glycogen recovery, and a powerful ellagitannin-rich pomegranate extract to help improve strength recovery and reduce delayed onset muscle soreness.
If you know you want to go all in and get it all, the Deluxe Challenge Pack is for you! All graphics below show what is included in each.
If you are an existing BOD member, you have several purchase options. Just the digital upgrade, which does not include the BOD ropes, the digital upgrade with the BOD ropes, the Base Completion Pack which includes access to the program, the BOD ropes, both nutrition programs and either a month’s supply of Shakeology or a month’s supply of Energize and Recover. The last option is the Deluxe Completion Pack which includes it all!
Is Muscle Burns Fat the right program for you?
My personal opinion is….YES — this is the right program for you. I was doing yoga before this program and before yoga, I had taken a few weeks off from my daily workouts. I have found this program the PERFECT one to get me back into it. Since the program progresses you through all 6 weeks, it doesn’t matter what level you’re at right now, these workouts are for anyone! But especially if…
You want to burn fat (with a name like “muscle burns fat,” what did you expect?!)
You want to build strong lean muscle
You want a flat stomach & ripped core
You’re ready for a new way to challenge yourself!
When will you be able to get started?
There are a couple of key dates to keep in mind…
July 7th: VIP Access deals open up to Coaches (Not a Coach? You can sign up for FREE with your purchase and get instant access to the program materials!)
July 27th: VIP Access deals open to ALL customers — you don’t need to be a Coach or even a current Beachbody customer to order and get these amazing deals that will be available for a limited time!!
August 10th: My #mbf challenge will begin and we will all be doing the workouts together and working on our nutrition together. The group helps SO much to keep you going!
What is Beachbody VIP Early Access?
There are two release dates for new programs released through Beachbody On Demand. There is the “VIP Early Access” release date and there is the “General” release date.
VIP Early Access is available to both coaches and customers. To gain VIP Early Access simply purchase early access for the program you want. The cost for VIP Early Access is usually between $50-$70 per program not including Shakeology or the Performance Line.
Without VIP Early Access you will just need to wait for the program’s General release. The general release date is usually about six months after VIP Early Access begins. At that time the program will be available in the member library for all Beachbody On Demand users.
