"All but one participant (a double amputee) spent less time in their wheelchairs. One resident hung a "For Sale" sign on her wheelchair after she discovered she no longer needed it. Others discarded their back braces. One woman rejoined her husband in an independent living setting"

Results from a Nursing Home study after a twice per week SIX minute training session!

Don't go to the nursing home, START NOW!

IT DOESN'T REQUIRE MUCH TIME!

As a lifelong exerciser and calorie counter, I can attest to this. I first read about this approach in 2000. Couldn't believe it and didn't try it until late 2009. Dropped 40 pounds, down to 6% bodyfat WITHOUT intentionally reducing calories and WITHOUT burning more calories "in the gym". WITHOUT breaking a sweat! Something happened! Been trying to figure that out since. I think this explains it. Do not exercise to burn calories. In fact, I believe, the less calories burned exercising the better your results will be. Isn't that crazy! Contact me for more details.

I am a big believer in Clarence Bass--we both have law degrees--and have read many of his books and incorporated many of his ideas and principles in my daily life. I exercise 5 days a week, walk every day with my dogs and eat relatively healthy, and have done so for  a long time. I thought I had ...

Want to burn more calories? Exercise LESS!
People who burn the most calories have the highest "NEAT".
That's NON exercise activity which includes comfortable walking that I promote. I recommend walking at about 2.7mph or about 100 steps per minute. This combined with brief and infrequent exercise(cardio and strength) sessions is a sustainable effective program.

I haven't seen evidence that this practice has anything special about it.

A cardiologist who previously recommended fasting to patients said his new research showed why we need good nutrition data to avoid biases on diets.

My experience is nobody comes to the gym and walks at this speed. Most would consider this very slow. However, it's a very comfortable pace that helps with recovery as well as heart health.
I recommend staying at this speed daily and do ONE brief HIIT session weekly.

Public health officials for years have recommended 'brisk' walking for health—but they’ve defined 'brisk' in maddeningly hard-to-follow ways, such as 'walk at 70% of your maximum heart rate.' Now, researchers have dug into 38 studies to define 'brisk' walking in a way that people can actually us...
