If you haven't yet discovered the personal fitness routine best for you, get ready to be impressed. What I believe to be the most profoundly innovative development I've seen in fitness, I'm willing to bet, will change how you look at exercise and its many benefits for your body. Achieving your fit, new body is just a shake away. Why Fitness Is More Important Now Than Ever Before Feel and look your best starting today. If you don't stay physically active, you start losing muscle mass at around age 40. You burn fewer calories as your body shifts from building less muscle to adding more fat. You can blame it on "somatopause" – the body's normal metabolic slowdown and decline of your body's production of human growth hormone (HGH) as you age. Somatopause likely affects millions of baby boomers in the U.S. and millions more around the world, causing: Weight gain Energy loss Accelerated aging Loss of muscle tone Increased body fat When you don't get enough exercise as you age, visceral fat can build in your abdomen. Visceral or belly fat can negatively affect your overall health and quality of life and – may be, by far, the worst fat to have on your body… Why Fitness Matters Fitness is important for many reasons. Just to name a few… Helps you achieve and maintain your ideal body weight Promotes good cardiovascular and respiratory health Provides comfortable movement and flexibility Improves your mood There's no question that exercise is a major key to promoting health, as well as looking and feeling your best. How Much Exercise Are YOU Getting Each Week? New Year's resolutions come and go, but fitness doesn't. Most people simply don't get enough exercise. Consider your neighborhood gym or fitness club. Visit during the first couple of weeks in January and you may need to wait in line to use the treadmill. Go back in mid-February and take your pick of equipment – with no wait. Everyone's gone. What happened between January 1 and just six weeks later? Human nature. In today's fast-paced world, everyone wants to save time. It's a precious commodity. Many folks – and maybe you, too – don't have hours each week to spend exercising. Imagine this scenario… What if you could get the same or even greater benefits from hours of exercise in just 45 minutes each week? -- What's 'The Most Perfect' Type of Exercise for You? The best type of exercise for you is one that helps you: Slim down and get rid of belly fat Support bone strength Move with comfort and ease Improve your mood Improve parts of your body you can't see or feel My personal favorite is Peak Fitness, which is my comprehensive fitness program that includes powerful anaerobic exercises. Peak Fitness exercises can dramatically improve your cardiovascular fitness and fat-burning capabilities and takes just a fraction of the time as other types of exercise (more about that later). The revolutionary development in fitness that I'm about to tell you about happens to be a perfect complement to my Peak Fitness exercises. Let's get started… You Get Stronger by Lifting Weights: Fact or Fiction? Strength training can be slow and tedious – and you must keep adding more weight. But the more general principle is you are increasing gravitational stress because you are lifting weights against gravity. To understand how gravity affects your workout, let's briefly revisit Newton's Second Law of Motion, which you probably learned back in high school: Force = Mass x Acceleration Simply put, what this means is you can improve your strength or stability by either applying more mass (weight) or more acceleration. Free weights and weight machines use gravity as acceleration. And that's why you must keep increasing mass – or weight – to see results in your strength. What if there was a way, instead, to effectively use the second half of the equation – through acceleration, and not gravity? With this scenario, weights wouldn't necessarily be needed and you'd eliminate the high impact and high stress factors associated with them, so it will be a whole lot easier. When you use the techniques I’m describing below, the acceleration is about the recruitment of more fast and slow twitch muscles. The Soviet Secret That Started It All… You may or may not remember the Space Race back in the 1960s… But, nearly 30 years later, we discovered that, in their pursuit to win, the Soviets experimented with techniques to help their cosmonauts stay in space longer. One of the problems back then with space travel was muscle atrophy – or severe muscle wasting – of cosmonauts' bodies. This, along with bone loss, typically occurred when cosmonauts spent extended time in a zero-gravity environment. From this experience, the Soviets discovered the secret of Whole Body Vibration Training – or the ability to make acceleration work for them. Boost Your Muscle Strength WITHOUT Weights in Just 15 Minutes, 3 Times a Week Traditional strength training requires time and patience. If you struggle with weights – as many people do – I'll bet that you're going to love what Whole Body Vibration Training can do. If you don't have the time it takes to get a decent, regular workout at your gym, you're also going to be pleased. Whole Body Vibration Training allows you to reap the benefits of strength training with ease and in just a fraction of the time. Just like the cosmonauts. How can it possibly do this? With Whole Body Vibration Training, your body's muscles contract between 25 and 50 times a second as you make gentle body movements. It's this constant muscle tensioning that increases muscle strength. And it only takes three 15-minute sessions per week to get you started building lean muscle with Whole Body Vibration Training. That's only 45 minutes a week! But remember, like any exercise program or device, you improve results with more time and/or intensity. Why Traditional Strength Training and Cardio Exercises Aren't Cardio After All… To improve your heart health, you first need to understand that you have two muscle fiber types with their own unique energy systems: Slow twitch (red muscle) – Activated by traditional strength training and cardio exercises Fast twitch (white muscle) – Activated by Peak Fitness and Whole Body Vibration Training exercises These slow and fast twitch muscles can be activated by Peak Fitness and Whole Body Vibration Training exercises. Your heart has two different processes; the aerobic process and the anaerobic process. Traditional strength training and cardio exercises work only the aerobic process and the slow twitch muscle fibers. On the other hand, Peak Fitness type and Whole Body Vibration Training exercises work both the anaerobic and the aerobic processes of your heart as they activate both the fast and super-fast muscle fibers. This is why you may not see the results you desire even when you're spending an hour on the treadmill several times a week. You're only working half of your muscle fiber types! And when you don't exercise your fast twitch fibers, they may begin to atrophy, which can adversely affect your fitness and physical health.
