Trevor Hadley: Final Project

Trevor Hadley is only 18 years old who is a NASM certified personal trainer, a Herbalife independent distributor and a pre-med microbiology major at the University of Oklahoma. He learned about Herbalife about two months ago and was instantly intrigued.
Herbalife is a global nutrition, weight loss and skin care company. Hadley became an independent distributor the same day that he found out about Herbalife. According to the Herbalife website, independent distributors purchase products from the company to sell to their own customers. Distributors also earn money from the sales of distributors they have recruited.
Hadley started working out intensely in high school and has tried just about every supplement in the book. Coming to college it was a challenge for him to find a good supplement on a college budget, until he was introduced to Herbalife.
“Before I was actually taking a lot of supplements. I would actually probably spend about $400 to $500 on supplements a month at Vitamin Shoppe,” Hadley said, “I found out that the easiest way to stay on a college budget and eat healthy was with Herbalife’s meal replacement shakes. It’s about $2.50 per day and is actually the most complete meal your body can have, it was a complete no brainer for me.”
Hadley also stated that Herbalife is the only company with a 100% proven ingredients, which puts them above pharmaceutical grade supplements making them healthier and safer.
Nate Dickey, a freshman marketing major at the University of Oklahoma, is also a Herbalife independent distributor.
“I went to school with Trevor and is my personal trainer and the one who introduced me to Herbalife,” Dickey said, “At the beginning of the year we were still testing out other supplements, but the first two weeks of using Herbalife I was already starting to see a difference and that is what sold me.”
Hadley has been recruiting distributors at the gym and giving out free samples of shakes to potential clients. At this time next year, Hadley could be making up to $15,000 each month from being a Herbalife distributor that he will put toward medical school.

Lead In: Trevor Hadley has been an independent distributor for about two months. He recently switched from other supplements to Herbalife because it is healthier and a lot safer.

P90X

Nik Saucier and Jorden Moxley both attend the University of Oklahoma and have not worked out since high school. They decided they need to get in shape and bought P90X, a set of DVDs that you workout to at home.
According to the P90X website, it is a training system that lasts 90 days. It shows you how to change your workout routine and when the best time is to do so. The workouts are based on muscle confusion, which will never let your body plateau. The DVDs consist of short training cycles that challenge your muscles with variety and intensity.
Tony Horton, the creator of P90X, has spent the last 20 years perfecting his expertise about fitness leading him to create this workout. Horton has shared a 3-phase nutrition plan consisted of a fat shredder phase, energy booster phase and an endurance maximizer phase created by experts to give people the right amount of calories and nutrients so they can burn stored fat while building lean muscle.
Nik Saucier, a sophomore at OU who is double majoring in energy management and finance, started using P90X about one week ago.
“I decided to try P90X because a friend of mine used the DVDs and lost 75 pounds,” Saucier said, “Right now, I’m just really sore but I’m already starting to feel better and know that I will see changes in my body soon.”
Jorden Moxley, an entrepreneurship major at OU, also started using P90X about one week ago.
“I like using P90X rather than going to the gym because I can do on my own time and I don’t have to take the extra time getting ready and driving to the gym, I can just pop the DVD into my computer or TV and workout,” Moxley said, “Also, if someone is inexperienced about working out they can follow the DVD instead of making up their own workouts at the gym, which is a lot easier.”
P90X is the number one best selling at home workout. Right now, you can pre-order P90X 2 until December 7. P90X 2 has three different kits you can choose from, the base, the deluxe and the ultimate. It is still a complete 90-day program but with new, intensified workouts.
