    My Grand Entrance

    “It’s especially not my style to have you come in to my clinic and feel like you’re in a prison, or that there’s security between you and my staff. “Instead I want a big open space.” I was taking everyone on a tour of the wellness clinic inside my new Sears Center building. I had [...]

    You Never Have To Do Cardio Again

    I bet your doctor never told you this… as you age, cells in your lungs start to die off faster than you replace them – causing your lungs to shrink. And here’s the kicker: The smaller your lungs, the greater your chance of dying – of ALL causes.1 But I have proof that it’s completely [...]

    Now I’m Ready To Go Global

    If you want your sexiest, most attractive body, you can either starve yourself and beat yourself up doing an “extreme” fitness program…

    … or you can use my new fitness video coming out this month.

    Did you know that extreme workouts like “P90X” and “Insanity” claim to be new and different, but they’re really just more aerobics? They claim to get you in shape, but they only wear you out and injure you.

    Do exercises with names like “hit the floor,” “attack jabs” and “mummy kicks” sound like they’ll make you stronger? Would you even want to do “suicide drills”? Sounds more like torture to me. It sounds insane. Since when is it ever a good idea to go insane?

    The Best There’s Ever Been

    I’ve been working on a major project for quite some time. It’s taken two years and it’s been a very grueling – but educational – process.

    I decided that I wanted to make the best fitness product ever. And I wanted to make a DVD that would incorporate all of the principles of PACE that I’ve been working on for the past 10 years all at once.

    And it’s finally done. It’s complete and it’s the culmination of a lifetime of effort. It’s the best I’ve ever done and I hope you like it…

    Power Boost That Could Save Your Life

    You probably know someone who’s fallen and broken a hip. You may not know that it’s not just the elderly who fall, or break their hips. All seniors are at risk.

    The risk doubles every five years after you turn 50. Nine out of 10 hip fractures happen to people over 60. And more than 25 percent of those people will develop complications and die within a year.1

    No matter what your age or level of fitness, you can take a few simple steps – right away – to keep this from happening to you.

    A new study tells a revealing story. Turns out, the signals to your muscles start to slow down as you get older, making it harder for your muscles to respond.

    Researchers at the University of Delaware looked at how muscles respond when the cells that activate them, called neurons, send out electrical signals for the muscles to move.

    They found that in the elderly, not only do muscles respond more slowly, but neurons actually fire less frequently. At first glance this seems to confirm the conventional wisdom that slowing down physically is an inevitable consequence of aging but there’s more…

    They’re Starting to Come Around

    It looks like the principles of my P.A.C.E. program are finally starting to be accepted. At least one, anyway. That training for intensity gives you greater benefit than training for endurance.

    In the last few days I’ve seen articles on several conventional health websites explaining how good for you intense workouts are. Even the LA Times has a piece on it. The author concludes what I’ve known for years: The benefits of intense workouts edge out endurance exercises.

    I applaud them for starting to come around to the idea, but they’re still not quite getting the whole picture.

    “My Husband Says I’m Hot!”

    “What’s going on out there?”

    “It’s D.W. You know how she is since she’s been doing PACE… she brought her old pants in.”

    I looked up from reading D.W.’s patient chart. “She brought her pants?”

    “Well, she wore them. Her old belt, too.” My medical assistant M.T. was laughing now. “She’s so happy. She even told me, ‘My husband says I’m lookin’ hot now! He wants to do PACE so he can look good, too.’”

    Terri Brightens Up The Whole Office

    My patient Terri L. is bubbling with energy.

    When she comes into the office now she has a big smile on her face, she greets my whole staff and has so much to say. She’s shed 80 pounds so far, and she was in the office just yesterday telling my staff happily, “… and everything that’s left is all muscle!”

    Terri seems completely unrelated to the person I met when she first came to me as a patient. She was lethargic, walked slow and talked slow. She had her head down all the time, spoke in a monotone and had hardly any animation.

    Now she’s very energetic, and everyone notices the difference.

    Why?

    I’ll Be Your Personal Fitness Coach

    When I show my patients how to do PACE, amazing things happen.

    People who were so heavy they couldn’t get off the couch drop 90 pounds and feel reborn. People who think they “can’t do it,” find that they can.

    Now, you can get the same help without ever stepping foot in my clinic.

    That’s because I’ve made a DVD of my PACE program just for you. All you have to do is push “play,” and I’ll step into your living room and walk you through my revolutionary PACE program step-by-step.

    The Cure for Cardio Hell

    Have you seen the late-night commercials for those 90-minute “extreme” fitness programs? You may have felt a rush of excitement as you watched super-fit and attractive models jump around with their six-pack abs and bulging muscles.

    Let me tell you about everyone I know who bought one of those DVDs and watched them at home… They came to a very disappointing conclusion:

    They couldn’t do it!

    They’re Just Not Getting It…

    lot of people are coming around to the idea that not only does long-duration cardio training not work, it’s dangerous. But while I give them credit for catching on, they’re not getting it quite right.

    In fact, one of the most popular doctors on the Internet is also not recommending long-duration cardio any more like he used to. He’s come up with his own exercise regimen. I admire him for trying, but there are serious problems with his new program, and there are a few things I do differently.

    Happy-Go-Lucky…

    Happy-Go-Lucky…

    I just saw Terri Lyttle…

    She came into my office first thing this morning. She had a big smile and went around saying hello to everyone. I’ve never seen her happier.

    Terri’s my patient who lost 45 pounds by walking for 45 seconds. If you knew Terri a few months ago, you’d understand. She wasn’t always so happy-go-lucky. When she first came to see me, she was tired, frustrated, and very overweight.

    Today her feet barely touch the ground.

    In case you missed it, I included Terri’s story below…

    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…
