What is Beachbody?
Beachbody’s weight loss programs motivate and encourage you to follow through with your health and fitness goals. One of Beachbody’s benefits is the emphasis on its community, which provides participants with an active support system. Another highlight is the Beachbody app. Through the app, users have easy access to workouts, meal plans and fitness tracking tools.
How does Beachbody work?
Beachbody offers a variety of products and services, but all of them share the same goal: to make weight loss easier. Participants sign up with a Beachbody coach who guides them through their weight loss journey. These coaches help them choose a program and find products that give them the results they want.
The Beachbody diet program is one of the company’s more popular services. Although there is no specific scientific study backing the program, the company based this diet on common weight loss principles. For instance, the 21 Day Fix eliminates added sugar and refined carbohydrates, which are known to contribute to weight gain.
Beachbody programs
There are several Beachbody programs. Each one has different benefits, such as workout videos and Beachbody meal plans.
- 21 Day Fix: This weight loss program allows you to lose as many as 15 pounds in three weeks. The plan comes with workout DVDs and meal plan recipes that control your portions. The program typically costs around $70, but the price varies depending on the exact products you purchase.
- Beachbody on Demand: Beachbody on Demand is a streaming service that gives you immediate access to the company’s meal and fitness programs along with support from a Beachbody coach. With this service, you can stream content anywhere with an internet connection. Subscribers also receive workout calendars and weight loss tracking tools. The service costs $99 a year, but there are short-term options available.
- 2B Mindset: Beachbody’s 2B Mindset program focuses on helping you lose weight by showing you what you can eat instead of what you can't. The program comes with a 30-day meal plan, video recipes, recipe books and coaching to help you accomplish your goal. The starting cost for the 2B Mindset is $119.
- Ultimate Portion Fix: This program expands the 21 Day Fix into 30 days and recommends Beachbody’s Shakeology products, fruits and vegetables. Like the 21 Day Fix, this program has you use containers to measure out your portions. Costs start at $74, and buyers get access to cooking videos, resources and the Beachbody community.
- The Monthly Fix: While the Ultimate Portion Fix comes with 30 days of meal plans and support, the Monthly Fix takes things one step further. After you purchase the Ultimate Portion Fix, you can pay $19.95 a month to get 24/7 access to The Monthly Fix. This gives you FIXATE recipes, meal plans, check-ins and ongoing support from the community. Billing is automatic every month until you cancel.
- Beachbody Ultimate Reset: Beachbody Ultimate Reset is a 21-day cleanse that eliminates bad foods and toxins from your diet. The base kit costs $199.95, which includes supplements designed to cleanse your body, a three-part nutrition plan and fitness tips.

I saw the previews for INSANITY, and that was my first program that I started with. And then, I saw Beachbody On Demand recently, so I tried the other programs and I like it. Right now, I'm on my fifth program. I'm doing Transform :20. I like to complete the whole program then try a new one, but I like how you can bounce back and forth if you want, to do a three-day session workout or do a Transform :20. I'm very satisfied with the results. My health is so much better. I used to be an avid runner but I haven't had as much time, so I just do the Beachbody program and it works really good.
Hi Alex,
Congratulations on the completion of some of our more challenging programs! That truly is an accomplishment and you should be proud of yourself. Thank you for taking a moment and letting us know of your success with our programs and the achievement of greater health.

My parents used the Beachbody program growing up, and I use it now. It has proven results and I've seen it work. I use Beachbody On Demand and I really like it. I did CIZE and lost 5 pounds, and I've lost 5 pounds from another program too.
Hi Kelsey,
We are ecstatic to see that you are following in your parents footsteps and have lost 10 pounds from crushing CIZE and other Beachbody workoutds. That is great news and we see that you are keeping up the great work and have already started on a new program. Thank you for being apart of the Beachbody community and we look forward to hearing more about your success in the future.

Beachbody has become a scam company. Once the most respected company when it came to providing fitness programs for people to work from home. Now, they have this terrible business model where if you are late by even minutes in cancelling an auto-renewed subscription, they refuse to refund you. They will state they sent out a notice of auto-renewal, but of course that doesn't mean anything. Emails can get missed or access can be lost, etc. etc. etc. A servicemember goes out onto a training exercise where they have no access to their personal email and go without that access for weeks, in turn missing this so-called "notification" email because of it? Too bad. "Not our problem", they will say.
And of course, you can't actually talk to a real person on the phone anymore. They know people will miss these emails, and that is what they are counting on. They know people will be unaware of the auto-renew window and will do pretty much nothing (except sending a single email that can be easily missed) to ensure customer knowledge of the pending charge. This company now engages in shady practices meant to pull the most amount of money they can from their customers - taking willing advantage of the fact that humans nowadays have so many things going on in their lives that they easily forget small details - and in turn pad their bottom line.

While their training videos were helpful at first it has been very hard to cancel the membership. I cancelled my membership over 3 years ago and I just got charged again for annual fee without asking for it. So 3 years and they keep trying to renew my membership that I don't want. They said they emailed me saying they'd renew my membership unless I cancelled again. That is stupid and dishonest. So don't join unless you want hassles and want to lose money long term!

I was under the impression I had purchased access to Beach Body for a six month promotional. I did the workouts for six months, and then was done. Three years later, I realized they were sneakily still charging me $200 a year. They have NO customer service number. I found a text message support line, and as soon as they found out I was trying to get a refund from them, they unilateral ended the conversation. I found this to be exceptionally dishonest. Even though the most recent charge was days old, they wouldn't even have a conversation about a refund. I have never received emails warning about impending charges. I understand that companies need to make a profit, but Beach Body seems to have really focused in on profit at the expense of their customers.
In reading other reviews, I see other customers have suffered the same fate. Beach Body will leave counter reviews stating some nonsense about how they actually do reach out to customers to warn them of impending bills, which I believe is a complete lie. If that is the case, why do SO MANY customers state this is not the case?

Very poor customer service. I tried canceling a charge to my account and they keep giving me the same reply and transferring me to other agents and still haven't got anywhere. I had to call my bank to dispute the charges, in which I haven't had this app for 2 years...
Hello Michael,
After conducting a thorough review of your account details and customer service contacts, we were unable to locate any active memberships or subscriptions on your account. If you think that your bank card has been compromised, we strongly encourage you to reach out to your financial institution to report this matter immediately. You may also want to review your account activity and report any unauthorized transactions to your financial institution. Generally, they're able to take the appropriate action to protect your account. If your bank determines that the charges on your account are suspicious and within their policy, they generally have processes to help support you.

Beachbody renews your subscription automatically annually and will claim to have sent you a reminder email along with claiming you read the email but in reality they do not send this reminder, and refuse to send proof of the notification and read receipt. If you try to cancel as a result of this surprise renewal, they refuse to refund your money and will use their auto renewal policy as their defense, even if it's the same day of the renewal. The only way of knowing of the renewal will be your credit card statement. NYS Law Chapter 20 Article 29-BB states a business shall notify a consumer of auto annual renewals 15-45 days of the renewal date and Beachbody does not do this. Look up this law in your state and be sure you don't leave your credit card with this company. There are hundreds of this complaint on this site and the Better Business Bureau website. Hopefully this will catch up with them one day.

I had the same problem with the auto-renew. I could swear I canceled my BODi subscription but they say I didn't. Tried to get money back less than 10 days into it. They refuse. Beachbody: instead of your lame canned response to everyone on here, how about reviewing and changing your unethical, poor business policy? Actually show you care about your customers, who are not robots and keep track of every "box checked" in every online payment. You lost another lifelong customer.

I went online to manage my BODi-On-Demand and cancel services. For some reason it did not get cancelled. When I got my bank statement and noticed it had been renewed automatically I called them.

After the appeal they still refused to give me a refund. I cannot and will not support this company anymore and if you have your cc on file with them I would remove it immediately.
