I highly recommend Fred Hahn's SlowBurn system of exercise. His method is a potent means for developing yourself both physically and spiritually in a safe and time efficient manner."

When I first heard about SlowBurn I thought, "C´mon, this can´t be for real! Only 30 minutes a week and no aerobics?" I figured well, what the heck and gave it a try.

Lo and behold, I lost 30 pounds and 4 sizes in just a few months.

My body has a tone and my muscles have a definition that they've never had before with anything else I've ever done. I am stronger and I have more energy.

The combination of SlowBurn strength training and eating properly is truly amazing. When I looked in the mirror, it was almost like I was looking at someone else. I recommend SlowBurn to everyone. It´s the most incredible thing I´ve ever done for my body!

I´ve always enjoyed sports and athletic activities –– lettered in football and baseball in high school, intramural sports in college and grad school, whitewater kayaking, skiing, golf and backpacking after that...then “Life” happened. You know...family, work and all sorts of other commitments. Before I knew it, a pretty fit “Baby Boomer” was suffering from “Aging Jock” syndrome. That´s when the back hurts, my old catcher´s knees creaked and an extra 15 or so pounds had mysteriously appeared on a formerly decent build. And try as I might, I just couldn´t find enough time on a regular basis to exercise it all away.

Then I remembered that Fred had told me about slow motion strength training a few years earlier. I did a story on it for News Channel 4 and was impressed. It was time to try it. I started working out once a week for 30 minutes. I purposely avoided physical therapy, serious exercise and any other strength training as a kind of self experiment to see what SlowBurn could do for me.

Within a few workouts I realized that my back had stopped aching (and it had been aching for a long time) and my knees stopped hurting. When I played with my six year old, I could pick him up and roughhouse with him with greater ease. Everyday activities, from climbing stairs to walking, became easier.

And perhaps best of all, I am absolutely crushing the golf ball! I am driving the ball further than I EVER have and am a good club or more longer with my irons. (I know that doesn´t mean much to most people, but trust me, the golfers reading this are getting excited!)

Maybe I could have accomplished this with a three–a–week gym routine, but this came about with 30 minutes a week – sometimes less! And I can come dressed for the office, throw on shorts and a T–shirt and not have to spend a lot of time showering because I don´t break a sweat!

I can´t say enough about what Fred has done to help me regain my lost strength, health, fitness, and even a little youth. I have been telling everyone who´ll listen because it´s clearly the most effective and time–efficient way to exercise I have ever tried. You should try it too!

It was too good to be true, I was sure, but maybe the same hormones that stretched my ligaments in pregnancy also stretched my mind. 30 minutes a week to a stronger body? Well, I'd give it a try. I was surprised by how intense but not scary the exercise was, by how sensible Fred's explanations of how and why building muscle is what matters most in fitness, and by how quickly I could see and feel real gains in my strength. Yes, the time in the gym requires real mental concentration as well as physical effort, and yes I tired early in the evenings on gym days. But I was very surprised at how quickly I saw increases in my stamina on all the other days (6 out of 7, remember). This really helped, as I was chasing a 6 and a 3 year old while carrying their soon to be baby brother. Another great benefit: the lower back exercise virtually wiped out back pain during this pregnancy. Nearing 40, I had been told by many people including my doctor to expect back pain and fatigue. But maybe the best part was what SlowBurn did for me post partum. After my previous pregnancies I had lost weight with either a very strict diet and some exercise or a pretty strict diet and a lot of running. There were depressing plateaus and regains in those battles. Older this time, I expected it to be even worse. With a modified diet (long on fiber and protein, moderate in fat, and low in carbohydrates) and SlowBurn (30 minutes, once a week), I lost weight faster and more steadily than with either other method. More important than the pounds, of course, are the inches. Your skinny jeans could care less what the scale says, it's all about the tape measure. After you have a baby you want your old body back, and with all the changes in your schedule and priorities and conversation topics, it seems that much more important to have your body seem familiar, and be able to wear all your old favorite clothes. New moms can feel like they have completely lost themselves; post partum depression is not only because of hormones! Building muscle is the answer, and the faster the better. After each of my previous pregnancies I managed to get the scale down to the magic preconception weight, but clothes never looked quite the same. Same pounds, different (saggy) shape. Was it inevitable with the passing years? Now, I can say with John Wayne style (no brag, just fact), I am stronger and leaner than any time in my life since high school. Nothing in my closet scares me. Also, I can do a lot more in daily life than most people my age: pack a suitcase to overstuffed and whisk it into an overhead compartment, carry my son on my shoulders for nearly a mile and up stairs, and so on. Maybe a strong mother for my kids is the best benefit SlowBurn's program has given me.

Fred,
I wanted to thank you for your book. After essentially never setting foot in a gym in my 31 years, I've been spending an intense 20 minutes once or twice a week lifting very heavy things. Between a low carb diet and lifting slow like you recommend, I have dropped 33 pounds so far and I feel great!

I just wanted to check back in and offer a little bit of testimony so perhaps others could benefit from it.

I started on the Eades' Protein Power diet 2 weeks ago and am following it closely. I am happy (very) to report that I am not having the blood sugar crashes anymore.

I have been doing the SlowBurn workout and walking/hiking and am amazed at how effective the diet is at fueling me up for those activities. For example, I walked over 2 miles on my first hike in a long time and did not need to stop for a snack even though my muscles were getting a good work-out -- I would definitely have had to stop for a snack if I were still "doing carbs".

I am taking in much less calories than I was with my previous usual high-carb/low-fat emphasis on eating but am feeling MUCH better, am much less hungry, and am plenty energetic. Never experienced anything like this. I'm a believer! Oh and I am losing weight too! There are not many things in life that I would consider truly life-changing, but the Protein Power diet has been one of them. I am starting to already feel results from the SlowBurn workout, too!

I took up swimming regularly about 25 years ago because it was an activity that did not exacerbate my temperamental lower back. I usually work out 4 times a week during the swim season with my team (Red Tide) and we focus on a meet at the end of every March.

I have worked out with weights on a regular basis for years, doing the usual 3 sets of 12 repetitions using a combination of free weights and machines. On the recommendation of a client, I started SlowBurn last fall.

I want to tell you all that the recent meet this past March was one of the best I’ve ever had - 4 personal best times in middle distance events (400 IM, 200 fly, 500 free, 200 free). I felt strong in all of these swims and was able to push myself at the end without dying.

While our coaches are excellent, I have to attribute the difference to the SlowBurn training system and the trainers at SlowBurn - the only new factor in my training.

Now we need to see if the results continue during the triathlon season!

Thanks.

After my second child was born, I was desperate to get back to my previously slender self. After 4 months of SlowBurn, well, I think my photos speak for themselves! I have never felt better, stronger or looked as good.

When I first started working with SlowBurn I did not believe that working out one day a week for 30 minutes would be enough. I was a pessimist but it has proven to be absolutely true that I can do that. One day a week has given me tremendous benefits.

SlowBurn is different than any other kind of exercise I've ever tried but I've gotten the best results from it as well.

It was too good to be true, I was sure, but maybe the same hormones that stretched my ligaments in pregnancy also stretched my mind. 30 minutes a week to a stronger body? Well, I´d give it a try.

I was surprised by how intense but not scary the exercise was, by how sensible Fred´s explanations of how and why building muscle is what matters most in fitness, and by how quickly I could see and feel real gains in my strength. Yes, the time in the gym requires real mental concentration as well as physical effort, and yes I tired early in the evenings on gym days. But I was very surprised at how quickly I saw increases in my stamina on all the other days (6 out of 7, remember). This really helped, as I was chasing a 6 and a 3–year old while carrying their soon–to–be baby brother.

Another great benefit: the lower back exercise virtually wiped out back pain during this pregnancy. Nearing 40, I had been told by many people including my doctor to expect back pain and fatigue.

But maybe the best part was what SlowBurn did for me post–partum. After my previous pregnancies I had lost weight with either a very strict diet and some exercise or a pretty strict diet and a lot of running. There were depressing plateaus and regains in those battles. Older this time, I expected it to be even worse. With a modified diet (long on fiber and protein, moderate in fat, and low in carbohydrates) and SlowBurn (30 minutes, once a week), I lost weight faster and more steadily than with either other method. No de–motivating long plateaus, and in the four years since my weight has stayed within 4 pounds of the low point. (Note to Fred: can you check this for me? One of the good things is not obsessing over pounds anymore so I am not sure I really remember.)

More important than the pounds, of course, are the inches. Your skinny jeans could care less what the scale says, it´s all about the tape measure. After you have a baby you want your old body back, and with all the changes in your schedule and priorities and conversation topics, it seems that much more important to have your body seem familiar, and be able to wear all your old favorite clothes.

Maybe a strong mother for my kids is the best benefit SlowBurn´s SlowBurn program has given me.

My blood pressure went from 195/110 to 149/80 in a couple of months with NO meds or any other changes in my life. Oh yeah, I have lost over 25 pounds, too. I am 57 and getting really strong. I also have been cured of Sciatica and a torn knee cartilage somehow, too. Your system gets RESULTS!!!!

I read the SlowBurn Fitness Revolution. I have been faithfully working out for 28 years. Your workout routine is the most efficient way to obtain optimum strength without risk of injury.

Thanks for writing the book!

I am a 52 year old man who has suffered from low back pain for about 10 years. The pain was so severe that some mornings I could hardly get out of bed. I tried everything short of surgery....chiropractors...yoga...OTC pain pills. I decided to try your book. No more pain! None. I am 52 and now feel 22. Thank you so much.

I recommend this method ONE-THOUSAND percent to those people (like myself) who always hated working out the traditional 3 times a week (and usually gave it up after 3 months). After each workout, you will REALLY feel that you have worked out and achieved something...I will do this method for the rest of my life.

I have been doing SlowBurn for 5 months religiously. I love it. Why don't more people do it this way? Thanks for your book!

My son, Ephraim is 10 years old. He is an aspiring cartoonist; more artsy than sporty, but has a decent forehand, and a mean backhand in tennis! He is average build, and has asthma, eczema, food allergies, and environmental allergies......has good coping skills, but knows all that stuff is a drag. His dad and I had been going to Fred Hahn's SlowBurn for years. I have poor bone density, so the strength training was the key to my health. For my husband, an actor, the training was essential for keeping him fit, and fitting into a crazy schedule. I spoke to Fred about Ephraim beginning weight training. He highly recommended this for him. I believe Ephraim was 8 years old when he began with Fred. After taking measurements, and getting whatever history and medical information necessary, Ephraim went to the equipment with Tommy, a very tall, muscular trainer.....who is hilarious, and so kind, and encouraging! The difference in their sizes was quite something. As I knew the level of intensity at SlowBurn from my own weight training, I was a bit anxious about Ephraim's ability to handle that type workout. They of course started him light, and almost two years later, he is at weights that amaze me.

Remember, he is not a soccer kid, he's an artist/video gamer!

O.K. that is the history. What has it done for Ephraim? He will not develop a muscular physique at this age. What he will develop is strength, and confidence, and great self-esteem. Because he has a compromised respiratory situation, helping him be as strong as he can, is so important. He comes out of his training session adding and multiplying in his head the amount of weight he lifted. He is wiped out, but recovers pretty quickly (faster than I do!) As a mom, I know my son so well. I know this training is incredibly challenging, and I know having Ephraim challenge himself physically like this is a fantastic hurdle for him. I see him growing from a pretty scrawny looking kid who is on antihistamines and inhalers, to a confident 10 year old, who is getting stronger, and whose tennis grip is now pretty awesome. I want to give him a head-start......this has been a totally positive experience for him. He has a younger sister, who is seven years old, and when she becomes eight, she will be right next to him doing bicep curls!

Margie and I just got back from the Coast-to-Coast walk in northern England.

A year ago I could barely walk through Central Park to get the chemo and radiation treatments...but I just finished walking 200 miles, plus 27,500 feet of elevation, through the mountains and hills of the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales, and the North York Moors.

Perhaps the most satisfying part was how strong I was throughout. There are some especially grueling parts to this trip -- 40 to 50% gradients that are like walking up ladders for 1,000 feet and more -- and it gave me special pleasure to pass hikers much younger than me.

I know I couldn't have done this trip without your strength training program. Thank you for all you've done to help bring me back to health. I feel deeply grateful to have you and Tommy in my corner.

I just wanted to let you know I discovered and have done Slow Burn workouts after reading a review in Dr. Bruce West's news letter and I think they are amazing! I have done it for the last 10 years now and am so grateful to have found this way of keeping fit through my 60's. With the challenge of my travel and work this is the only thing I could consistently do. This is just a thank you - I live in the San Francisco Bay area. (I get a real chuckle out the looks I get from hefting my pretty heavy roller bag into the overhead bin with ease.)

At 56, I´ve traded “perky” for “feisty.” As a professional singer, dancer, actress, keeping my body strong and resistant to injury is absolutely essential. Since joining SlowBurn and using Fred´s SlowBurn method, it feels as if I´ve turned back the clock a decade and become almost impervious to damage.
It´s an informed, careful, intelligent approach to remaining strong and fit. It eliminates that fragile, tentative feeling that the aging process can produce.

It´s wonderful to feel as if I´m adding years to my life and career exercising a mere 30 minutes a week. I love it (well, when it´s over that is!) Really, I recommend you reverse the aging process by giving SlowBurn´s SlowBurn method a try.

This is something I feel I can and absolutely should do into my 100´s!

SlowBurn is a well thought out program, geared toward those who want to get in shape but don´t have room in the schedule for five or six days at the gym. Regardless of your fitness level, SlowBurn is the best place to build muscle, burn fat, or both. Fred Hahn is a fitness pioneer, providing a workout that is both efficient and effective.

In a world where very little is as good as the hype, and where almost nothing is better than the hype, I was stunned and amazed to discover just how good Fred Hahn´s SlowBurn training has made me feel. Every day I have more energy--and my entire body feels better.

I developed a bad case of Sciatica for the first time in my life. I visited a doctor who suggested injections, tried a chiropractor, had 4 acupuncture sessions, joined the Y and swam, exercised, did some yoga. NOTHING helped. This went on for a year and began to seriously impair my ability to function. After SIX sessions at SlowBurn on ONE machine (do the math, it took on the average 2 minutes per session, so that's 12 MINUTES of total time I exercised my back) it went completely away. That was almost a year ago. I think it's kind of a miracle, although I'm sure Fred doesn't think there's anything mysterious about it. I'm now a serious convert to SlowBurn. I'm just so grateful to be out of pain, although I've almost forgotten, it seems so long (and so many reps) ago.

I used to be like you. Oh yeah. Forking over hard earned money to some trendy watering hole gym, spending hours stomping on treadmills or flailing at weight machines – staring at all those other bodies that seemed impossibly more nubile than mine. Well, those days are over. Now, investing only twenty four minutes 2X per week, I have turned back my physiological clock twenty four years.

No question. SlowBurn´s technique is a revelation, saving me time, money, and, I dare say, my nobility. John Markus

As a practicing chiropractor in NYC, I have encountered all types of training - SlowBurn and Fred Hahn are by far in a league of their own. This is the training I currently use and I absolutely love every minute of it and see the results. You can't go wrong here. Try it!

Since doing SlowBurn, along with a low carb/high fat diet that I started several weeks before SlowBurning, my resting heart rate has gone from 80 to 59 and I have lost 27 lbs. on the scale and 4.5 inches around my waist.

Many of my friends would like to start SlowBurn and are asking me for advice. I always tell them to buy the book first and read it thoroughly before starting. This way if someone tries to tell them something that's not true and discourage them, they will know the truth!

I just completed my 68th SlowBurn workout.

Combined with a 95% reduction in gluten intake, I have lost about 25 lbs., added muscle, slimmed down and am hitting the golf ball farther than ever. I have done this by having good but not excellent form, good breathing etc.

I don't record my time to failure or my # of reps but one detail...when I started, I couldn't do one "man pushup", now I can do 9 (albeit a little fast), then I revert to the knee version. Our protocol is to set the egg timer to 110 seconds, gently get into position for a given exercise and get to work. We do your whole workout in about 40 minutes.

Marine works out with me and has gained strength, looks great and is hitting the ball farther than ever.

This season, Marine was the Ladies 2012 champ at our club and together we won the Couples Championship!

The idea of slow, one on one SlowBurn training that is closely monitored, and in 30 minutes just twice a week, brings me great satisfaction, lifts my spirits, and keeps me strong, healthy, and protected from injury.

My stepdaughter Jillian Doyle is a member of the Kennett High School track team in Conway, NH. In her sophomore year she was one tenth of a second from breaking the school's record in the 200 meter run. During her off-season, Jillian incorporated SlowBurn techniques into her weight workouts. As a junior, Jillian returned to the track team a bit stronger and faster, setting the new school record in the 200 meter. Jillian was also the anchor of the 4 X 100 relay team that not only shattered the school record in that event, but also broke their own record one week later! As a senior, Jillian has returned to her weight room strategy of again incorporating SlowBurn techniques in hopes of not only breaking more track records next spring, but setting the records and standards for Kennett High's newly formed indoor track team.

Strength's training enabled me to improve my strength and stamina for driving a Formula 1 car in a daylong driving experience. Knowing that the Formula 1 program was coming up, I worked specifically on the strengths I would need for car control and endurance as well as to cope with my vulnerable back. I have had serious back problems which have much improved with my SlowBurn training. Having done Formula 1 driving previously, I could see the dramatic improvement that my training with SlowBurn helped me make in my performance.

I recommend SlowBurn to everyone concerned about their general fitness as well as to anyone preparing for a specific event.

I´ve been serious about exercise and good health all my life. I discovered Fred´s SlowBurn book, tried the workout, and was very impressed. The 30 minute a week program has given me incredible strength and helps keep me energetic. The training is smart, efficient and powerful. I´ve never felt better. I highly recommend SlowBurn to anyone.

Strong children thrive. I know of no better way for adults to develop strength and the habit and pleasure of exercise than at SlowBurn using Fred Hahn’s SlowBurn method. It is a safe, effective way to build muscle for life without stressing and injuring joints and bones (which are common problems associated with traditional sports and gym training techniques).

Childhood strength paves the way to the mature enjoyment of an active life style. I can think of no safer way to advance adolescent strength than using SlowBurn strength training.

SlowBurn has successfully seen me through four major orthopedic operations and continues to support my difficult work life. Being strong has helped me in every way and SlowBurn training is an essential ingredient of my life. The method allows me to maintain activity levels I thought I would never enjoy again.

As an affiliate of Fred Hahn, it is more than appropriate that I share information about the truth of bodily transformation. Slow controlled strength training (SlowBurn style) is valuable beyond your wildest imaginations. Do not believe the trickery in magazines, TV ads, and ridiculous gizmos on mis–infomercials. The claims made are terribly exaggerated and usually completely untrue.

The keys to enhanced health and body shape are meaningful muscular exercise a.k.a. strength training, best done slow motion style, and a properly controlled calorie intake.

‘Cardio’ (not found in dictionary), is a vastly overrated modality for many health related reasons, and is completely unnecessary to achieve maximum fat loss and improved body shape. The results you see in my photos are the product of not a single minute of aerobic activity. If you follow Fred´s system, you will maximize your physical potential, as I did, without it.

As far as exercise is concerned, Fred and I are pretty much on the same page. In most cases, all that is needed is 1 or 2 twenty–minute workouts a week. Maximum muscle tone can be had if your meals are kept in check along with a session or two a week of SlowBurn training. The combination will be YOUR road to ‘Wellville.’

Our kids feel stronger & proud of their accomplishments. We feel like we are doing something very healthy as a family and in the process teaching our children how important it is to take care of their bodies.

Very shortly after Katya and Marc started their program at SlowBurn my expectations that Fred would provide an effective, professional and safe work out for my children were confirmed. Katya’s Junior Prep figure skating program coach wanted to know what Katya did so that almost overnight her jumps became so considerably stronger. On the same night I talked to Katya’s ballet teacher, who could not believe that all of a sudden Katya made such a breakthrough in flexibility. As for Marc, not only did his hockey power skating improve very fast, but I can actually see how his muscle have grown. And the other day I discovered that without any additional training Marc can do military style pull-ups—a huge ego booster for both Marc—and his parents!

I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia ten years ago. After trying the traditional medical approach without success I began my own quest for answers. Part of my personal approach was to find an exercise my muscles felt good with. Over the years I have tried many programs. Intense and prolonged pain was often the end result. Then I came across "SlowBurn" in my local library. I read it cover to cover in one day. It made a lot of sense so I tried the at home program. My muscles absolutely love and feel great with this program and so do I. Better than with any exercise I have tried.

Thank you for your wonderful book! And for the difference I have felt!!!

I just wanted to tell you how much your book has helped me. I am 65 years old and my husband and I have been doing SlowBurn at home for about 6 months. It is the first time I have ever done exercises that I can see the difference.

Thanks Again!

I love this workout!! I am so impressed with not only the science of this type of training, but with its effectiveness as well. I am so convinced of its application I can't wait to see what the next workout brings. I love the focus and intensity and the need for total concentration.

I am a late-onset athlete...a marathoner, half-marathoner and triathlete. I'm really looking forward to my next race with the added benefit of SlowBurn. I can already see a difference in my training.
