Former MLB Player Brandon Duckworth Pitches Lifestyle Change
As a professional baseball scout, a great deal of the time is spent on the road. Indulging in all sorts of food is a daily occurrence as there is ample opportunity to be treated to some of the finest meals a city has to offer. As great as it sounds, there is a downside. All the extravagant meals eventually start to tip the scale.
This was the case for former Major League Baseball (MLB) player and current professional scout Brandon Duckworth. The days on the road, though enjoyable, began to add up, and so did the pounds.
Young Again
Brandon spent sixteen seasons in the professional baseball world, eight of those playing in the MLB and two overseas in Japan.
After his retirement in 2013, the former pitcher continued in the world of baseball working for the New York Yankees Scouting department.
At that time, life threw him a curve ball. His once athletic physique started to change as a result of the extravagant eating and hectic lifestyle of constantly being on the go.
“I was on the road a lot and had been contemplating doing a cleanse,” recalls Brandon. “Then my wife and I were introduced to Isagenix. We just dove right in and have loved it ever since.”
Fortunately, Brandon and his wife Janeen spoke with their good friend Amanda, who introduced them to the products this past September.
Brandon quickly shed the weight that had accumulated during the many travel days and lavish meals and dropped 18 pounds.*
“I felt more energetic,” shares Brandon. “I felt like I was young again…like I was in my twenties.”
And that says something. With Brandon’s 20s spent as a professional athlete, his athletic endeavors encouraged his focus on nutrition and exercise.
‘Your Body is Your Engine’
With that knowledge of proper nourishment to fuel his body as an athlete, Brandon knew he wanted a “total overall” nutrition plan when he started Isagenix. That’s exactly what he got.
“I changed my whole lifestyle,” shares Brandon. “I really noticed a difference.”
His own progress and belief in the products led him to support Isagenix as a great system for athletes.
As a former professional pitcher himself, he encourages the products for others like him who play professional baseball, and even for those athletes who participate in other sports.
“Hopefully I can get everyone on board,” says Brandon. “For an athlete, your body is your engine and if it is not working correctly, you’re not going to get the most out of it.”
A Desire to Change
Brandon and Janeen strive to maintain a healthy lifestyle for their three children, and encourage others to do the same. The couple has found Isagenix to be a great solution for their family.
“A goal of mine is to try to help people eat healthier and be healthier,” says Brandon. “I want to push this product because I truly believe in it and what it has done for me and my family thus far.”
Brandon credits the athlete within for his determination to succeed when he began Isagenix. However, he believes that the positive results are available to anyone—athlete or not—who’s willing to put in the effort.
“I’m looking forward to showing people my turnaround, and all the health benefits I’ve been able to accomplish and that anybody can accomplish,” shares Brandon. “It’s hard and you have to want to change your lifestyle.”
Now, Brandon hopes to help others understand that being open and ready for a lifestyle change is a huge part of making the systems work. Through sharing this hard-work mindset, he is looking forward to creating an Isagenix business with Janeen by his side.
“I want to share Isagenix with everybody because it has helped me,” shares Brandon. “If you can touch even one person, that’s one more person than it would have been if you hadn’t shared.”
