Women tell me, “I don’t have TIME to work out!”

That’s fine!

Only have a few minutes to work out?

Try Slow-Cadence Exercise for FAST Results!

 

Slow-Cadence Exercise DVD

 

The Busy Person's Fitness Phenomenon!

 

How would you like to exercise once or twice a week for 20 minutes and get as much (or greater) benefit as you would going to the gym five days-a-week? That can happen with Slow-Cadence Exercise™ (SCE)—resistance training done at a very, very slow tempo to temporary muscle failure.

 

SCE is one way many people are restoring and maintaining their strength. Despite the benefits of traditional strength training, most people don’t have the time to devote hours every week at the gym lifting weights. Besides, the constant strain of lifting the standard three sets of eight to twelve reps per exercise can cause Repetitive Stress Injuries (RSIs) to joints and tendons.

 

 Unlike standard strength or resistance training, SCE does not depend on gravity or momentum. For maximum results, you must perform each exercise as slowly as possible (with or without weights)  using correct form until muscle failure.

 

The good news is that because you’re moving at such  a slow pace, your muscles are forced to work harder, so more can be accomplished in less time. Even though SCE may sound easy, it’s not. It’s a system that requires concentration and discipline but for a very minimal amount of time (so it’s perfect for the Busy Person!).

 

 

 Even if you only have a minute, there’s time to squeeze in one of the QuickFits exercises at your home or office. They’re quick enough to fit in just about anywhere! Also included are some "QuickFits in Flight" you can do while on an airplane, bus or train!

 

 And for those who want more of a challenge, there are also several “High-Powered QuickFits" for the Mountain Movers among us!

 

And like all our DVDs, Slow-Cadence and QuickFits are

accompanied by Scripture!

Build yourself up in spirit AND body at the same time!

Fitness for His Witness™ Seminar
featuring PraiseMoves®(“The Christian Alternative to yoga”)

In this enlightening seminar, Laurette covers scriptural keys to health and fitness for spirit, soul and body (based on Romans 12:1-3; 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 and Hebrews 5:13-14). She also shares valuable tips she’s learned to help people at all levels of fitness get in shape, “Six Seeds to Sow for Vibrant Health,” and clever ways to introduce health-giving habits into our family’s lives. All teaching is given with a generous dose of humor based on Laurette’s trial-and-error experiences on the road to victory after years of being overweight and out-of-shape.

Laurette also outlines the dangers of yoga, and the dynamic PraiseMoves difference. Gentle stretching and movement combine with STRONG scripture for stress relief, weight loss, flexibility and strength.

Half the seminar is given in a teaching format, and the other half is a gentle PraiseMoves stretching workout for all ages. Discover PraiseMoves for yourself during this invigorating yet relaxing session. Be refreshed!
