    What You Need First After Exercising

    What You Need First After Exercising

    Do you dread those everyday aches and pains so much that it keeps you from exercising in the first place?

    You don’t have to let those aches and pains stop you anymore.

    It’s possible to eliminate muscle aches and stiffness immediately after working out. And you can help rebuild your muscles at the same time.

    What you have to do is immediately put back things you use up during exercise. This means carbohydrates and proteins…

    Lower This Inflammation Marker

    Lower This Inflammation Marker

    An FDA advisory panel wants to get healthy people hooked on statin (cholesterol-lowering) drugs – with all their ugly side effects.

    Yes, the FDA has reacted to a drug company-sponsored study showing that people with high C-reactive protein (CRP) levels had fewer heart attacks and strokes when taking statins.

    But they brushed aside the 13 deaths and 18 “confused states” among the participants. And they ignored the increase in adult-onset diabetes as well.

    Get Physical and Grow Younger

    Get Physical and Grow Younger

    In just minutes a day, you can program your genes to stay younger longer.

    There’s new evidence that PACE-style movement slows down your aging clock, lengthening your life and making you more resistant to disease.

    The professor that led the study said, “The act of exercising may actually protect the body against the aging process… and people may actually look and feel younger.”1

    Research now shows that exercise has the power to turn back time. Exercise affects your telomeres, making them longer and stronger. The telomere is your biological clock. It determines how long you live. And how well you live…

    Thank you, thank you, my friend…

    Thank you, thank you, my friend…

    So where does this “thank you” come from? It’s from a letter I received from Grant S., who got results right off the bat using my PACE fitness program.

    My new fitness book, PACE: The 12-Minute Fitness Revolution, has just been published. And it picks up right where my first book, Rediscover Your Native Fitness, left off.

    The new guidelines and streamlined style will accelerate your progress and get you there in half the time.

    And the approach to getting started could not be easier…

    The Day is Finally Here…

    The Day is Finally Here…

    You are one of the first to see this.

    For the first time you have access to my new PACE program.

    For two years I’ve been re-working PACE to make it simpler and easier to follow, especially if you feel out-of-shape or too busy to get started.

    I first published PACE back in November of 2006. It’s the first complete program that protects your heart, pumps up your lung volume, and burns fat in just 12 minutes a day.

    Today, thousands of people from a dozen countries around the world are practicing my PACE program. And hundreds have sent me letters and emails, including my own patients here in South Florida…

    German Secret That Won Olympic Gold

    German Secret That Won Olympic Gold

    Eighty years ago, two Germans figured out a brilliant way to burn fat fast.

    Back in the 1930s, a German doctor and a track coach got together and invented this brilliant training technique.

    The athletes sprinted 200 meters and rested for a short time.

    Then they did again. A 200-meter sprint followed by a short period of rest. And again.

    It worked. Their students broke world record after world record. Roger Banister, the first man to run the mile in under 4 minutes, used this workout.

    Exercising But Not Losing Weight?

    Exercising But Not Losing Weight?

    A cover story in TIME magazine tells you exercise won’t help you lose weight.

    In the article, a professor from Louisiana State University says, “… for weight loss, exercise is pretty useless.”1

    If you’re a regular reader you may already recognize the ignorance of this professor’s statement.

    What is he missing?

    Getting Lean is as Easy as Pushing Play

    Getting Lean is as Easy as Pushing Play

    I’m stunned. I just went online and discovered other companies using my PACE articles – even excerpts from my book – to sell their own exercise programs. There are at least a dozen Google ads and YouTube videos on PACE, all of which have nothing to do with me or the real PACE program.

    Strong Bones Without the Calcium Pills

    Strong Bones Without the Calcium Pills

    Do you think that popping a calcium supplement will make your bones stronger?

    Despite what you hear on TV, calcium supplements have little to do with the strength of your bones.

    That’s what I tell my patients … and it always surprises them…

    For daily stretching, you should focus on three areas of the body. These are the areas that tend to get the most strain from your daily activities, such as sitting at a desk all day…

    Dear Member,
    Losing weight is probably at the forefront of your mind this time of year. So here’s a “doctor-recommended” resolution for you to take into the New Year: work out less and eat more.

    More than One Kind of Exercise…

    Dear Reader,
    I read a piece in New York Magazine that had me shaking my head.
    In a nut shell the author, Gary Taubes, claims that exercise doesn’t work. Fat people stay fat, and lean people stay lean. All exercise does is burn a few calories, then boost your appetite and make you want to eat more. [...]

    I’ve had more than a few patients come to me saying they have trouble doing everyday stuff. I’m talking regular things like carrying groceries, getting up the stairs or working in their gardens.
    You can get stronger and more flexible without lifting weights or twisting your body into weird yoga postures.
    Calisthenics are one of my [...]
