April 1 Mega Sale

Less Than 24 Hours Left

Hey Friend,

Wow, my email account is filling up fast with people who are jumping on this one, be sure you get in too...

In case you missed this earlier today, I didn't want you to miss out on this special before it is over - look for details in the email below.

April 1 Mega Event

Dear Friend,

Tomorrow is a special day for me.

It's April Fool's Day. But as my grandfather used to say: 'Fools were born on other days too.'

That's because April 1 was his birthday.

Unfortunately, he passed away a couple of years ago. But, every year, on the first of April, I try to pull out his scrapbook and look back at some of his accomplishments - the accomplishments that inspired me to be an athlete and a coach.

His name was William Turunen and he was a natural athlete. He picked up track (hurdler), baseball and golf as if he was born to play them.

In baseball, he played for many years, making it as far as one of the St. Louis Cardinal farm clubs - the Union City Greyhounds.

He also started the first little league in his home town and helped get women's sports going (for my aunt) too.

Anyway, besides being a natural athlete, my grandfather was also known as quite a frugal man (growing up in the Great Depression did that to a lot of people, didn't it).

So, I know he would appreciate what I'm about to tell you.

In honor of my grandpa's birthday - I'm staging a mega event. A 20% off sale on some of my best-selling products. Go to this page to see the great bargains that you can invest in now:

http://www.makesyoufast.com/april_1_mega_sale.html

But, of course I can't keep this sale up for long. So, when April 1st ends, so does the sale.

If you want the tools to get in great summer shape - and have been putting your decision off. NOW is the time to take action.

Don't be foolish on April 1. Don't drag your feet or make excuses... Sprint over to the page NOW!

Dangers of Inflammation Revealed

Dangers of Inflammation Revealed

Hello again Friend,

Yesterday, I talked to you about an article on high intensity exercise and its benefits for your health and well-being. What I didn't tell you was the reason that high intensity exercise works...

Or, at least one of the leading theories about why it works.

You may have read a lot recently about inflammation in your body - the new suspect in causing a whole list of health problems.

Low intensity exercise can promote this inflammation.

Higher intensities (like those in sprinting and interval training) seem not to do this; as shown by lowered levels of TNF (tumor necrosis factor) in a recent study at Columbia University Medical Center.

This substance plays a key role in inflammation in your body. And this inflammation has been linked to problems such as:

Cancer

Heart and coronary artery disease

Gastritis

Arthritis

Alzheimer's disease

Diabetes

Periodontal disease

And possibly even obesity.

All of these diseases are being studied related to the effects of sustained inflammation in your body. The inflammation can lead to some of the less serious conditions, which eventually, can lead to the more dangerous ones.

A downward spiral that you don't want to get caught up in.

If you suffer from any of these conditions (or want to avoid them in the future), be sure to up the intensity in your workouts. Be sure to check with your doctor of course before making changes to your exercise program.

RFNH

Coach K

PS Besides including hill sprints and other high intensity exercises in your routine, you can also fight inflammation by eating certain nutrients - make your way to http://www.makesyoufast.com/core_four.html to find out all of the facts because what you don't know can hurt you.

High Intensity Exercise Hits Mainstream

High Intensity Exercise Hits Mainstream

Dear Friend,

The secret is out - or at least part of the secret.

Luckily, you're reading these emails to be exposed to the whole truth.

Yup, more and more often, I am seeing articles and studies on the benefits of high intensity exercise (like hill and stair sprints).

In fact, one of the major weekly news magazine put out an excellent article last week (written by Anna Kuchment) about the 'amazing' benefits of high intensity exercise. (Thank you Eric for sending me a link to this one).

This may surprise the mainstream news readers out there - but should be of no surprise to you.

Here are some of the highlights:

'High intensity exercise can radically improve health.'

'Vigorous exercise is even better for you than moderate exercise.'

'High intensity exercise lowers blood pressure, improves insulin sensitivity (which can help prevent diabetes) and increases aerobic capacity.'

The article goes on to talk about a study by Duke University in which 4 groups of exercisers were tracked for 9 months. Bet you can guess the outcome:

The groups that did high intensity exercise lowered their risk of having a heart attack by 24.5%. They also lowered their LDL cholesterol levels, decreased their body fat percentages and increased their aerobic capacity more than the moderate exercisers.

Beyond the physical health benefits, people also report that high intensity training helps them increase their sense of purpose, ambition and self-confidence - especially when they take it to the competitive level (which is getting easier and easier with all of the sub-masters and masters competitions out there).

Now, what the article doesn't say (and what most people out there don't know) is that hill sprinting is one of the most effective and efficient ways to increase the intensity of your workouts.

Not only will this training give you the benefits mentioned in the article - but it lets you get them in the shortest amount of time, and over the shortest distance.

If you haven't done it yet, I strongly suggest you add uphill training into your routine to radically improve your health and fitness levels.

And be sure to let me know your results. That's it for today.

RFNH

Coach K

PS The quickest and easiest way to get started is to get your copy of Uphill Fitness Training here - http://www.makesyoufast.com/uphill_fitness_training.html - You can start getting superior benefits in no time flat by taking the first step, clicking the link and investing TODAY.

Six Story Tornado Workout

Six Story Tornado Workout

Dear Friend,

'I'll never have time to work out this weekend...'

This is the thought that ran through my head on Thursday night. Prepared for a weekend of Cheerleading Nationals with my daughters. I knew it was going to be a busy one.

But, I put that negative thought out of my head and decided to find a way to get my workouts in. It turned out to be easier than we thought.

The competition was at the Kalahari resort in the Wisconsin Dells - one of the many indoor/outdoor waterparks in the area.

But, we stayed across the street at the another resort - the Great Wolf Lodge.

One of the Great Wolf's newer attractions is a 6 story, dump you into a funnel full of rushing water on a 4 person raft ride called the Tornado.

1 stories and 76 steps to the top.

Hmmm. Sounds like a great workout to me.

So, here's what I did. My very own interval workout at the waterpark.

The steps were broken up into flights about 15-18 steps apiece. I would:

1. Wait for my kids to get up a flight (so I didn't run them over)
2. Carrying the tube on my shoulder, I would run up those stairs as fast as possible
3. Then, rest on the landing until my kids cleared the next flight.

OR

I would turn the whole thing around:

1. Run up a flight
2. Wait for my kids to catch up
3. Run up the next one

This was a perfect way to get in a go fast, recover, go fast, recover... interval type workout.

Overall on Friday, we rode the thing 12 times. That's 12 trips up or a total of 912 steps of sprinting.

Not a bad workout when I was worried about not getting one in at all.

Sometimes you have to be a little creative to make your workout a part of your day. Just don't let anything - even a cheerleading competition or an indoor waterpark - become an excuse and get in your way.

RFNH

Coach K

PS I didn't run up the same way every time I scaled the Tornado. You can find out all of the techniques that I used (to get the most out of my workout) in Stair Climb Fitness - for now, this DVD is still FREE when you invest in Uphill Fitness Training - http://www.makesyoufast.com/uphill_fitness_training.html - I'm getting more and more ideas to turn this into a separate product, so I suggest you get in on it now so you don't end up paying extra for it...

The Biggest Disappointment Ever

The Biggest Disappointment Ever

Dear Friend,

One week ago, I think I jinxed a basketball team.

Oh, they survived my jinx on Friday - winning their 1st round game in the NCAA tournament - but they got whammied on Sunday in the 2nd round.

You may have seen the Wisconsin Badgers lose against UNLV last week. Right after I had talked them up in an email - OK, so I don't think it really had much to do with me - just like I couldn't have taken any credit if they were still winning.

What's even more interesting is how the press is treating this team after losing.

This is a team that:

Won 30 games this season
Had a 17 game winning streak
Was undefeated at home
Set numerous school records
Was ranked number one in the country - for the first time in school history

Yet, the press is portraying them as a big disappointment. As losers. As a team that didn't reach their full potential and their goals.

Sure, all Badger fans wanted them to reach the Final Four - maybe even win the national championship.

Sure, the team is disappointed for not reaching all of their goals.

But, didn't they achieve a huge amount of success?

Unfortunately the media in this country focuses on the negative. On 'what went wrong...'

The same media that talks about athletes 'losing the gold' instead of 'winning the silver or the bronze.'

I hope that you don't fall into the same trap.

When you set your goals high, you may not reach them quickly or easily - if you reach them at all. But, the road you take to try to reach those goals is more important than the end result anyway.

Having those goals will give you much more progress in life than if you had none.

So, focus on your accomplishments, on the progress that you make as you move forward. On the steps you take and the obstacles you overcome in pursuit of those goals. Celebrate your successes and always remember that successful people keep trying UNTIL they succeed.

Although the Badgers lose some great players to graduation and didn't quite end the way they wanted to, they should be proud of their accomplishments this season and build on those successes as they prepare for the next.

There is always the next 'game' to prepare for, in every aspect of your life.

Run Fast Not Hard

Coach K

PS One way this team will prepare for next year is to train on a hill here in Madison this summer - the very same hill you can see in the Uphill Fitness Training DVD - http://www.makesyoufast.com/uphill_fitness_training.html Use this step by step exercise blueprint to put you on the path to your best fitness self.

When To Stop Practicing

When To Stop Practicing

Dear Friend,

Sometimes what you don't do is as important as what you do.

Case in point - the Memphis Tigers basketball team.

This past season they were among the worst free throw shooters among all of college basketball - 61% from the line. But they are in the Sweet 16...

So, what happened?

Why are they suddenly making more of their foul shots?

More practice, right. After all, practice makes perfect.

Wrong.

Instead, the Tigers QUIT practicing free throws. Or, at least practicing them physically.

The Memphis coach took some sport psychology advice and told his team they weren't going to work (note that word) on free throws any more. But, here's what he told them to do:

'Go home and see yourself making ten.'

He told them to visualize their success every night and guess what? It's working...

'They're (the free throws) are going in... they're not pretty, but they are going in - because the players believe they are going to go in...'

Memphis actually hit 23 of their first 28 free throws in their game on Sunday... a whopping 82%.

Sure, you have to have the right mechanics to shoot free throws - but you'll make more when you think they will go in.

You should take note of this story. The same goes for your own training.

Sometimes - especially when you have hit a plateau or are in a slump - you need to take a step back and maybe quit doing what you've always done.

Try a new approach, do some visualization - anything to shake things up.

Take a break from 'working' towards your goals and let them happen.

Coach K

57 Year Old New Englander Shares Results

57 Year Old New Englander Shares Results

Dear Friend,

I'm always happy (especially on Monday mornings) when I get a successful 'field report' from somebody using Uphill Fitness Training. Nothing like a good story for motivation and inspiration... For example, here's one that came in this a.m.

Coach K.,
Just a quick note to say thanks for the advice. I have
incorporated hill sprints in my training (Can't wait for Spring in New
England to give them a real go, twice weekly along with a 3 miler once a
week for fun) as I've only managed about once a week this winter. I
went out and did a 2 miler as a test drive and was surprised at the
results. Without running anything but hill sprints, and that
inconsistently due to weather, work etc. I finished at ~ a 7:45 pace
feeling strong. With 2 x weekly intervals on the hill, I suspect even
better results. I also train with weights twice weekly, but the hill
sprints are amazingly effective, and, after decades of running 3 - 4
miles, they are a pleasant change. I'm 57, so this protocol can work
for any age group. Good stuff!

Thanks,

Tom Hultine

Coach K - Congratulations to you Tom. Love the way you haven't used the weather as a crutch - got out and did as much as you could.

And, I agree, the beauty of hill sprints is that you don't need to do them too often to see almost immediate results. Keep me informed of your progress once Spring gets into full swing.

The Law of Contrast

The Law of Contrast

Dear Friend,

Winter weather in Wisconsin sukx - especially this late in the year.

That's why on Wednesday, it was so great to see almost 70 degrees and sunshine.

But, as people say here, blink and the weather will change.

On Friday, it was in the 20's and snowing.

Talk about contrast. I guess that's why we all keep living here - variety, the change in seasons. At least that's what I keep telling myself...

Truth is, contrast is an important law in life. All great things have contrast associated with them - great music, great writing, great movies... and great fitness.

Putting contrast in your training can bring about results that you never thought possible.

And the best way I have found to put contrast in my workouts is to do interval-type training - especially on hills.

Think about it. High intensity, full out on the way up. Rest and recovery on the way back down and while waiting for the next trip to the top.

This type of training has been shown to give you superior improvements in endurance, speed, strength and power. It also is a great way to burn phat off your frame and add lean muscle.

It's time to act like the month of March in Wisconsin and put some contrast in YOUR life. Give it a try and keep me informed of your results.

That's all for today.

How To Become Player of the Year

How To Become Player of the Year

Dear Friend,

March madness meditation is the key. Smiling is the other.

In just a few hours, the Big Ten Conference player of the year will head out on the basketball court in Chicago.

Alando Tucker from the University of Wisconsin (Go Badgers.) was named to this honor a little over a week ago. Very deserving in my opinion.

An interesting thing about Mr. Tucker is that he likes to meditate before games. If you've seen him play, you can tell that his meditation works. He has amazing body control, routinely beats double and triple teams and seems to 'will' the ball into the basket on many of his shots.

Now, I haven't spoken with Alando personally but I bet his meditations include things like this:

Seeing the ball going into the hoop.

Seeing himself hitting the game winning shot.

Seeing himself make every shot he takes.

Remembering his best performances.

Why do I think this? Because this is what champions do.

The second thing I have noticed about Tucker is that he is almost always smiling. In fact, even when his sophomore season ended after just 4 games because of a broken foot, he kept smiling and remaining positive.

'It's what my Mom always told me to do,' Alando said. 'Plus, somebody told me that I'd heal faster if I smiled.'

You can learn a lot from this little story.

1. Meditation or visualization or whatever you want to call it is essential to reaching your goals and achieving your potential.

2. Smiling while you train will bring you better results. Enjoy your workouts to reach your goals faster.

Put these two suggestions into your own routine and you'll see your progress take off like wild fire.

How To Ruin Green Tea

How To Ruin Green Tea

Dear Friend,

My wife and I made a pact this week - one that was almost ruined before it started.
The promise? Drink more green tea - and less of all the 'other stuff'

Why?

Because Green Tea brings a whole plethora (love that word, don't you?) of health benefits along with being refreshing and tasting great.

The problem?

My wife brought home some new green tea.

Now, I drink several brands of green tea - but I read all of the ingredients carefully. As you know, green tea is growing in popularity in the U.S. and (of course) we Americans have ruined it. We've Americanized it.

Americanized it by adding all sorts of artificial colors and sweeteners - because the drink companies don't think anyone will drink the stuff if it isn't made to taste 'better.'

And that's what happened when my wife brought home some new tea to try. I was hopeful. It sounded pretty good - Green Tea - Mint Mojito.

Then I saw the evil word that had been printed on the label; Diet.
Anytime, I see this word, it's time to check the label. So I did.
And there, in very small print was another word that will keep me from ever drinking this tea: Sucrolose. Not in line with MY health and fitness goals.

Give me some honey or a little bit of organic cane sugar over the artificial stuff every time.

Lesson to be learned. Read labels. Don't put things into your body without really knowing what's in them.

I'll finish today with a quote about tea (well, sort of):
'People are like tea bags, you don't know how strong you are until you get into hot water.'

I know, a little hokey - but very true if you think about it.

RFNH

Coach K

PS There is another ingredient often put in tea that destroys all of its anti-oxidant benefits. To learn more, I suggest you get my Full Speed Fat Loss Program ($197 value) because it goes into detail on green and white tea.

Why You Should Get Ready For Spring Break

Why You Should Get Ready For Spring Break

Dear Friend,

If you are lucky enough to be heading on a Spring Break vacation this year, you should be getting thine buht in shape. If you are not going anywhere (like me), here's why you should be doing the same thing.

Spring Break is a milestone. An annual event that can give you just the incentive you need to get yourself into the best shape in your life. Just make sure you work out effectively to get the maximum results.

I remember back in college when I thought I knew the right way to get into shape for my Spring Break trip to Cancun. I did do a few of the right things. I set a goal 2 months out and started working towards it. Lifting weights, doing cardio, trying to eat the right things. Too bad I didn't know then what I know now.

Sure, I got in fairly good shape - but I worked way too hard for way too little in the way of results.

Now, I know better. I know that strength training along with high intensity sprint and interval training is the way to go. I also know that going up in meat, fruit and veggies and down in other types of carbs can kick fat loss into a higher gear.
And that's why I'm working toward my Spring Break goals right now. Even though I'm not going anywhere near a beach or an ocean. I'll be swimsuit ready anyway.

You can do the same thing. Set a date for your own Spring Break reveal. The day you will take a look at yourself in the mirror - bathing suit and all. Setting this date will give you something to shoot for - the milestone that I was talking about.

Gear your workouts and your eating habits toward that date, record your progress and you'll be celebrating your success when the time comes.

RFNH

Coach K

PS If you are tired of me telling you about hill sprints and all their benefits - but haven't given them a shot yet - then I recommend you get UFT - http://www.makesyoufast.com/uphill_fitness_training.html - because you'll see for yourself and become a part of the growing number of hill sprint fans around the world. I won't let up until you do cuz hill sprinting won't help you until you take action yourself.

Use That Extra Hour Part 2

Use That Extra Hour Part 2

Dear Friend,

Yesterday I told you how I took advantage of the extra hour of daylight on Sunday. But I only told you half of the story...

It's true that I used my Agility Ladder for my warm up and footspeed work - but I also used some other equipment to complete my workout.

Actually, I used two other pieces of equipment - two different heights of Mini Hurdles.
First, I used some 12 inch hurdles to simulate the high knee lift and toe lift I was missing by not sprinting on a hill that day. I did some 'dead leg' drills, followed by running through the hurdles at full speed. Then I finished off with some work on power and explosiveness - by doing some plyometric jumps and hops over the hurdles.

Let me tell you that I was sweating up a storm and really feeling it in my legs and core by the time I was done.

But I really wasn't done.

I continued my workout with some lateral speed work on my 6 inch mini hurdles.
These shorter hurdles are perfect for working side to side speed. Key to strengthening your ankles and stabilizing muscles. Key for anyone who plays sports where you aren't always running in a straight line. Basketball comes to mind since it's time for March Madness...

I finished up with some change of direction drills - also on the shorter hurdles.
If you have never worked out on mini hurdles before, I strongly suggest you give them a try. I have found them to be a great way to add fun into my workouts while achieving better than normal results.

The easiest way to get your own mini hurdles is to invest in a set here: http://www.makesyoufast.com/mini_hurdles.html

I recommend you get both sizes for maximal results in the least amount of time. (And don't forget to take advantage of the limited time BONUS gift which I'll include with your package)

How To Use Extra Hour - Part 1

How To Use Extra Hour - Part 1

Dear Friend,

Sunday, I put my extra hour of daylight to good use - and so can you.

By now, you know that the time changed this weekend (if not, you were probably late for wherever you were supposed to be this morning).

An extra hour of daylight. An extra hour that we can put to use gaining power, strength speed and stamina.

And that's exactly what I used my extra hour for yesterday.

I couldn't believe it was still light outside around 6 pm here in Wisconsin. Sure there's still plenty of snow on the ground (as you can see in the pictures here - http://www.makesyoufast.com/agility_ladder.html - ) but at least it's starting to look and feel like Spring.

I headed down to the local track to get in an energy boosting workout using some of my favorite fitness training equipment. Unfortunately, the track was still snow-covered, but I used the parking lot instead.

The first equipment I broke out for Spring was my Agility Ladder. (If you've got Uphill Fitness Training or Ultimate Insider Speed Training Secrets, then you already know about the powerful warm-ups and drills that can be done using this device).

And that's what I did. A great warmup and footspeed workout in the sunshine. Felt incredible after being cooped up for the last couple of weeks.

In just a few minutes, my heart was pumping, my blood was flowing and I felt alert, awake and alive - ready to move into the next part of my workout (which I'll tell you about tomorrow...)

Now you can get those same feelings during your workouts. You can get the same results that I do - using the exact same equipment that I use.

Secret to Becoming National Champions

Secret to Becoming National Champions

Friend,

What if the secret to becoming a champion was something so simple that you've probably heard it a thousand times?

It is.

Yesterday afternoon, lost amid the news of other 'more important' sports like basketball and hockey, the University of Wisconsin track and field team did something they had never done before (and something no Big Ten team had ever done).

They won the NCAA Indoor national championship.

And, afterwards, their coach, Ed Nuttycomb, revealed the secret to their success.

At first, you may think that Nuttycomb's comment is just a 'no big deal' type of answer. That it is just the words of a coach trying to play down the significance of the accomplishment.

But, if you look closer, it's incredibly profound.

So, what did the winningest coach in UW history say?

Something like this:

'It proves that if you coach long enough, anybody can win.' Mr. Nuttycomb stated with a smile.

Seems simple doesn't it? Like anyone could do it? But, read it again - a little bit closer.

'if you coach long enough, anybody can win'

What this statement really means is that successful people end up being that way because they keep going until they 'win'. That winners reach their goals because they keep doing the right things over and over and over again.

It's not true that anybody can win, because most people are unwilling to keep trying long enough.

'if you do 'x' long enough, you will win'

You can take advantage of this rule yourself. It doesn't matter how many times you have failed to lose those kilos, get in shape or reach your highest level of fitness, if you keep on trying (and never quit or become negative) you will eventually succeed.

Start NOW.

Your Time To Spring Forward

Your Time To Spring Forward

Dear Friend,

If you didn't remember to set your clock ahead tonight, you're missing out on a great opportunity.

Here's why.

This is the time of year when I normally set goals for the Spring (or early Summer, which really isn't that far away.) In the past, I have used these weeks to work towards dumping the winter poundage, prepping for summer swimsuit season, training for summer sporting events.

Springing forward this week gives you a great chance to springboard up in every area of your life. Health, fitness, business, life...

Use the change in time to make changes in your own life.

Have your been in a non-exercising slump? Spring out of it.

Have you been eating like crud over the winter? Spring out of it.

Been procrastinating some improvements in your life? Spring forward by setting goals and taking action on them.

Been in any other seasonal funk - NOW is the time to do something about it.

I'm using this time change to remind me to make promises to myself. Promises that have end dates in May and June. And, I'm starting to make progress towards keeping those promises tonight.

I strongly encourage you to do the same.

And, if getting in the best shape of the year (or your life) is among your goals - get Uphill Fitness Training - http://www.makesyoufast.com/uphill_fitness_training.html - the fastest, safest, most invigorating way to whip your behind into supreme shape.

Remember that this is not the weekend that you should fall back - not on your clocks, not in the progress on your goals.

RFNH

Coach K

PS Coming this week... get the same training equipment that I use to get and keep in shape. You've seen them in my training programs, now you'll be able to get them for yourself. Details coming at http://www.makesyoufast.com

1 Hour Determines Rest Of Your Life

1 Hour Determines Rest Of Your Life

Dear Friend,

Have you ever thought about this:

What if what you did in one hour - on one day - determined the rest of your life.

Could you handle the pressure?

Would you choke?

Would you be ready? Too Ready?

These are questions that were running through my head when I read a newspaper article on Wednesday.

Topic: Pro day at the University of Wisconsin.

If you aren't up on all the ins and outs of the NFL, here's the short version. A few weeks ago, many college players (but not all) were invited to the annual combine in Indianapolis. To be poked, prodded, tested, interviewed... see who will be drafted where next month.

For a lot of players who aren't invited, all is not lost. They have the same chance to 'show their wares' at pro days held at many college campuses.

The article talked about linebacker Mark Zalewski (remember the orange Mohawk email I sent you?) who wasn't invited to the combine, but is trying to prove he belongs in the NFL.

So, Mark tested in front of a number of pro scouts at the Badgers indoor practice facility - the McClain Center.

First test, 40 yard dash. Results. Less than perfect.

Why?

Zalewski said it best himself: 'I was too keyed up, to psyched about proving myself. It made me run tight and try too hard...'

(Run fast not hard.)

He still ran a respectable 4.65 (but not as fast as he had been running in workouts).

And, he did make up for it in other drills - probably earning himself a spot in the draft - or at least a free agent contract with a pro team.

So, how would you have performed?

One chance to show the pros what you can do. One chance to make an impression that might make you hundreds of thousands (if not millions) or dollars. One chance to prove that you should have been invited to the combine and that any team that doesn't snap you up will be missing out.

Chances are, with something this important, you would have behaved much like Zalewski - gotten yourself 'too ready' and hurt your chances in the process.

Better to get 'in the zone' and let your best come out instead of trying to force it out on command.

You need focus and emotion to have a successful performance, just don't get so psyched up that you can't LET success happen.

Rewarded for Taking Action

Rewarded for Taking Action

Happy Friday Friend,

If you took action this week and took advantage of the Caveman Cardio/UFT special - then you got an extra surprise when you ordered.

You see, I forgot to mention that, along with the bonus copies of the Caveman Cardio teleseminar and the Top 5 Reasons to Hill Sprint call, you also get a $27 discount applied to your order.

It pays to take action.

As David Letterman said:

Next in importance to having a good aim is to recognize when to pull the trigger.

If you haven't moved forward on this yet, you only have a few more hours to get in on it. No more hesitation, pull the trigger NOW.

RFNH

Coach K

PS In case you didn't get this, here's the original email with all the details (except the one about saving you're an extra 27 smackers).



Why Jogging Is Bad For You

Dear Friend,

Jogging can wreck your back and ruin your knees. Here's why:

Last night I did a Teleseminar titled Caveman Cardio. If you were on the call, you heard some important information about the 'right' way to train.

If you missed it... well, I'll get to that in a minute.

One of the topics of last night's call had to do with the difference between jogging (which is supposedly low impact) and sprinting (usually thought of as high impact) and the effects of both kinds of training on your body.

What I'm about to tell you may surprise you.

Jogging is by far worse on your body (especially your joints) than sprinting.

The reason this came up last night was because we were discussing how humans are built biologically - and how you can take advantage of that biology in your training. The same way early humans did...

First of all, think about jogging. Moving slowly forward, planting your feet flat (or heel first), not much motion in your upper body. You've felt it yourself or seen other people 'feeling it' as they plod around.

This type of motion does NOT take advantage of your biology. In fact, it leads to a huge amount of repetitive impact and stress on your joints. This is why so many people have back and knee problems when they start jogging to get in shape.

Sprinting, on the other hand, takes full advantage of the built in 'shock absorbers' and stabilizers in your body. The tendons and ligaments in your legs, the arches in your feet, the surface area of your joints, our big buhts, the width of your shoulders, the narrowness of your hips, your head - all built to run fast, not jog.

Not only that, the proper planting of your feet while sprinting increases the shock absorbtion even more - saving your body from nagging pain and injury in the process.

The choice is yours. Go against what is natural because that is what the 'experts' tell you to do.

Or, add sprinting to your workouts and get back to the way you were meant to move.

I don't have time to go into the details here (or even to touch on everything from the call last night) because it won't all fit in this email.

But, what I can do is make you an offer (which is only open for those who take action by Friday). Here it is:

Purchase Uphill Fitness Training by Friday at 8:27 PM and I will throw in an audio CD copy of the Caveman Cardio call ($54 value). And since I'll be filling up a package for you anyway, I'll also include a copy of the Top 5 Reasons to Hill Sprint audio CD ($29 value).

But, only if you can make a decision and act quickly. And, only if you order UFT through this link:

PS Friday is not that far away, my friend. If you put this off, you'll forget about the offer until it is to late. Put the kabosh on procrastination and sprint over to this page NOW.

How His Lady Got Lighter

How His Lady Got Lighter

(note from Coach K - wanted to let you know that, even though the teleseminar is over, you can order a recording from the same link - still half-price for now, but the price may double up at any time)

Dear Friend,

I've been busy putting together some killer info for tonight's Caveman Cardio teleseminar and just got the latest update from Dr. Vince Campbell - who will also be on the call.


If you haven't signed up yet - get to it... there are only a few spots left and swimsuit season is a few short weeks away. This call will get you ready.

Here's the update I got from Dr. V:

How my Lady got Lighter

Tim,

My wife recently dropped 25 units of unhealthy blubber, and
is ready for swimsuit season (rapidly approaching!)

Want to know how she put it on in the first place? She ate
right and exercised.

Trouble was, she was doing the typical, modern, Western,
Americanized version of 'eating right' and 'exercise'. Lots
of exercise. But she wasn't getting any results. Or at least
not the kind of results she wanted.

So I gave her a few tips on how to start eating and exercising
more like her prehistoric ancestors. (She liked the way I look
in my loin cloth, so she decided to give it a try.)

And guess what?

It worked.

Guess what? It always works.

It's like gravity. Whether you believe in it or not, whether
you agree with it or not, whether you think it'll work or not.
If you drop your keys, they don't go up. They drop.

It's the nature of the Beast. When you eat and move
the way your body is designed to eat and move, you get
lean and fit and firm and flexible.

And look good in a loin cloth.

Want to know the even better news? She doesn't do it 100%.
She's not a hard-core Cave-Chick. And that's OK. She's just
doing the best she can with what she has...the same way her
Stone Age ancestors did.

Want to know the secrets? How to jumpstart your swimsuit
body?

Then join me tonight at 8pm Eastern for the Caveman Cardio
teleseminar. Tim Kauppinen (Coach K) has been a track and
speed coach for over 20 years (and looks superb in a loincloth).

He's cooked up an special treat for you, an hour of power to
get your health and fitness program back on the fast track.

No matter what your age or Cave-gender.

He'll be sharing his best prehistoric training secrets:

- What kinds of exercises the cavemen did

- What traditional cardio REALLY does to your body (you won't
ever look at a 'target heart rate' the same again).

- The kind exercise your body is designed to do and the
best way to take advantage of your biology

- Can you really combine cardio and strength into one workout

I might even pipe in with the a few Caveman foods/nutrients to
protect and strengthen your heart while you're training.

This half-price special teleseminar is only $27, and will
only be held tonight. When you register below, you'll
get the phone number and access code immediately.

There may be a few surprises, and
maybe a little Q&A. So click here NOW and we'll talk with
you tonight.

How to Exercise Like Your Ancestors

How to Exercise Like Your Ancestors

Dear Friend,

A few weeks ago, I attended a talk by my good friend Dr. Vince Campbell - and what he told me about eating and fat loss blew me away.

Dr. V told me that the reason that so many people are fat, out of shape and unhealthy these days is that we have quit eating like our ancestors - the cavemen to put it simply.

Instead of natural and simple foods, technology has infused our food with chemicals, additives, artificial colors and sweeteners and a whole host of other things that are not good for us.

What we should do is go back to eating like the cavemen - meats, fruits and vegetables - and cut out the crap.

This all made sense to me. And it also made me think.

'If we should eat like cavemen, shoudn't we exercise the same way?' I thought to myself.

'Of course we should,' was my answer to myself.

Long before the myths of cardio and fat burning were being spoon fed to us - our ancestors exercised every day - and you can be that there weren't any fat cavemen walking around...

So, Dr. V and I started talking about how we could get this information on diet and exercise out to you in the quickest and easiest format possible. We decided on a teleseminar.

In this teleconference, we will talk about the following topics:

What kinds of exercises the cavemen did - and why you shoud be doing the same

The kind of stress that was good for the cavemen - and can be for you too

What traditional cardio REALLY does to your body - you won't ever look at a target heart rate the same again.

The best foods for your Caveman Diet - and the things to definitely leave off your plate

The kind exercise your body is designed to do and the best way for you to take advantage of your biological advantages

and a whole lot more...

Anyway, the call is going to happen on Tuesday night at 8 pm eastern (7 central) and I want to invite you to join us. Here's a link to register:


http://www.drvinceonline.com/teleseminar.htm

On the call, we'll also tell you how to get a free recording of the content and may even have time for some question and answer.

I know the members of Dr. V's Caveman Club will fill up the call fast - so be sure to get your name on the list early - like right NOW.

Looking forward to sharing some powerful info with you on Tuesday.

RFNH

Coach K

PS This info is brand new. I've never shared these details before. If you want to be among the special few who get these ground-breaking strategies first get yourself registered TODAY.

Are You Ready For Spring Training?

Are You Ready For Spring Training?

Dear Friend,

If you are a baseball fan, you know that spring training is just around the corner.

If you are not, you can still learn some great fitness techniques from ball players preparing for their season.

For example, last week I got an email from Leonard in Alaska containing a link to an article about his favorite baseball player - and the training that he does in the off season.

The players name is Ichiro and he plays outfield for the Seattle Mariners - and he has actually been playing professionaly for 16 years. To play that long, he must be doing something right.

One thing Ichiro does is to run stairs. One hundred forteen of them to be exact. That is how many steps there are in the Japanese park where he trains in the off season.

When interviewed for the article, he had just completed 22 trips up the stairs. You do the math.

The first five times, he hit every step - great for foot speed.

The next 17 times, he hit every other step - excellent for knee lift and power.

Both are great ways to burn fat and build stamina (and both exercises, along with 18 others are demonstrated in Stair Climb Fitness - FREE when you order Uphill Fitness Training http://www.makesyoufast.com/uphill_fitness_training.html )

The other interesting note about Ichiro's steps are that they are randomly sized and uneven. A great challenge to balance and coordination. Forcing his body to continually adapt and find its center.

He uses this training to improve the spring in his hamstrings - essential for covering the wide open spaces of center field. The training also improves his first step when stealing bases.

Overall, Ichiro uses this training to come to training camp in game-ready condition - ready to focus on his game and avoid all of the distractions (like contract negotiations) that come with the territory.

Thanks for the email, Leonard. Always good to see what successful athletes are doing - especially when it involves stairs and hills.

RFNH

Coach K

PS Here's another email that I got yesterday - proving that stairs can work for anybody.

Subject: Sprints Help

'...at 68 yrs I am out of shape. So when I started climbing stairs, I found half a (flight) was enough for me. But keeping at it 3 times a week I am now able to do 7 (flights) before I have had enough. Yesterday I tried something new for me, I actually ran up the steps once and walked 6 times. Yes I was beat, but felt good.

Of course living in Minnesota (southern) we have had our share of snow the last couple of weeks. I have found that removing snow has turned out the walk in the park. it is not as hard as it use to be. '

Thanks
John Erickson

Take it from John and Ichiro - stairs and sprints work. Start getting your own results by going here - http://www.makesyoufast.com/uphill_fitness_training.html
Hi Friend,

Wanted to let you know that I just confirmed with my friend Dr. Vince (from the other Madison - in Georgia) that we will be doing a teleconference call next Tuesday evening - and you're welcome to join in.

Here's what Dr. V just sent me regarding the call.

Hope to talk to you then. Feel free to email me if you have any questions about the call.

Nine Words to Die By

Tim,

You may have said them yourself.

I usually hear these words right before someone tells me
they're going to start taking dangerous diet pills or cholesterol
medicine (also dangerous):

'I tried diet and exercise, but it didn't work.'

Sometimes they don't really do it...they just 'try'.

But to be fair, most people really do put in the effort.
The only trouble is, all their effort is going in the wrong
direction. The typical modern-American-version of 'diet
and exercise' is twice as hard as it should be--and only
gives you half the results.

And it's slowly but surely killing us. Heart disease, obesity,
diabetes, cancer...helping us leave this planet much earlier
than we should.

You know what I'm talking about. I've done it. You've done it.

1. Eat a 'balanced diet'

Usually according to the 'food-pyramid'. Which usually ends
up meaning 'substitute 'low-fat/artificially sweetened' versions
of the same things that got you into trouble in the first place,
cross your fingers and hope for the best'.

2. Exercise three days a week at a slow, fat-burning pace
for 20-45 minutes.

But nothing really changes. You may lose some weight, but
you never end up looking, feeling and performing like you
know you really can.

And the news is getting worse, not better.

And the updated version of the food pyramid has good
ideas and symbolism around it, but it's hard to understand--
and is still more suited for fattening cattle than it is for
feeding humans.

The current exercise recommendations are topping 90 minutes
a day.

90 minutes a day? Unless you're a professional exerciser, I
don't think you have or want to spend that much time at the
gym. Me neither.

What if there was a way to exercise in half the time, with
quadruple the results? (not half the 90 minutes...but half the
20-45 minutes)

With no equipment, no sweaty gym rats...just you and your
workout space. Or your driveway. Or a 50-yard stretch of
sidewalk.

Well, one of my 'Cavemaniacs', Tim Kauppinen (Coach K),
has discovered the secret of what we call 'Caveman Cardio'.
Caveman Cardio will help you work out in less time and get
better results--better than you've ever imagined--no matter
how old you are, or what gender cave-dweller you happen
to be:

- Triple Your Cardiovascular Endurance
- Obliterate Excess Fat From Your Body
- Build Supreme Strength and Speed
- Kickstart Your Metabolism
- Protect your joints from injury
- Restore the Energy and Vitality of Your Youth
- Get the Stamina of an Antelope and the Power of a Jungle Cat

Caveman Cardio works just like Caveman Cuisine: it works
by respecting and protecting your biology. Caveman Cardio is
the way your body is designed to exercise.

I had to twist his arm (and he's got some big arms), but I talked
Coach K into sharing his secrets with my subscribers. Normally,
an hour with Coach K is over $500 (and that's for friends).

But we've scheduled a Caveman Cardio Conference Call for
Tuesday, March 6th at 8pm EST. I'll grill Coach K for an hour
to make sure he gives you the whos, whats, whys and hows to
get your new fitness program (and new lean, strong, fit,
swimsuit-ready body) off and running.

You can join the call for only $27...by clicking the link below:

http://www.1shoppingcart.com/app/netcart.asp?MerchantID=79719&ProductID=3425218

This is a one-time only event, so don't miss it. When the call's over
(or about half-way thru) you'll say to yourself the nine words to LIVE by:

'I wonder why nobody told me about this before?'

Dr. Vince

P.S. Did I say the part about swimsuit-ready? Memorial Day
is less than 90 days away, so now's the time to shed that winter
coat and get your body in shape...

...for the rest of your LIFE. Join the Caveman Cardio
teleseminar NOW:

How To Go Out Like a Lion

How To Go Out Like a Lion

Hey Friend,

I know you've heard that March comes in like a Lion and goes out like a Lamb.

And (although the weather today here in Wisconsin in no indication) the first day of March is a sign that Spring is right around the corner.

Spring is traditionally a time for lambs. Lambs are cute. Lambs are soft. Lambs are meek and mild. Lambs are part of the herd. Lambs are obedient.

(Dare I say that lambs are sheepish?)

But, when it comes to you and fitness, you should strive to come in like a lion instead (and go out the same way.)

As you know, lions are powerful, muscular and strong. Fast and agile - formidable hunters and dangerous fighters - the kings of the jungle. A true predator - the top of the food chain.

What you may not know is that a lion's roar can be heard up to 5 miles away - and at close range can shake a vehicle on its springs.

That's why YOU should make a promise to yourself to be more like a lion (and less like a lamb) in March.

To develop your strength, power, speed and agility. To become just a little more dangerous (or at least adventurous). To make your 'roar' heard by everyone around you.

And, you know what; high intensity exercise like hill sprinting is just the vehicle to get you there. Besides building your physical fitness levels, this training can boost your confidence and improve the way others look at you... how they feel about you... how much they listen to you... how seriously they take you.

There are only 30 more days left in March to change yourself into a lion. And, if you are going to be successful at it, you'd better get off your backside and get started NOW.

RFNH

Coach K

PS Picture yourself on your own Pride Rock. See yourself roaring confidently for everyone to hear - telling them to come and check out your new, lean, powerful physique. How to make this image a reality? http://www.makesyoufast.com/uphill_fitness_training.html

How To Run 4.35

How To Run 4.35

Dear Friend,

Without NFL Network, I didn't get to see as much of this year's combine as I would have liked. Always great to watch elite athletes (and, being a coach, seeing things they could do to improve.

What I did see was a picture in Tuesday's edition of USA Today.

The picture was a great front view of wide receiver Calvin Johnson (all 6'5' 239 pounds of him) running his 40 yard dash.

And running it pretty darn well. 4.35 will get him drafted very high in the upcoming draft.

Now, the reason I like to see pictures like this (video is even better in some ways) is that I can tell a lot about how an athlete is running.

In Mr. Johnson's case - he was doing a whole lot of things the right way.

For instance:

His face was right.
His shoulders were right.
His hands were right.
His arms were right.
His feet were pointed the right way.
His triple extension was right.
His front knee was right.

It's no wonder he ran so fast.

Take a look at that picture and see the speed techniques that you can pick out.

Or, better yet, use the information in Ultimate Insider Speed Training Secrets to do your own critique of Calvin's sprint. If you don't have it yet, you can pick up a copy here - http://www.makesyoufast.com/ultimate_insider_speed.html

Then, put those lessons learned into your own sprint training.
