Dear Bowflex
®
Enthusiast,
I’m excited, really excited! I’m elated because I’ve researched and developed an exercise and eating
program that produces fat loss faster than any plan I’ve ever tested.
For example, the men involved in my research project had an average fat loss of 27.95 pounds (12.68 kg)
per man. Women on the same program averaged a reduction of 16.96 pounds (7.69 kg). Best of all, these
dramatic results were achieved – not in six months – but in only six weeks!
That’s right – just six short weeks. Similar results can be
accomplished by you in six weeks when you follow my fitness
and nutrition program.
Bowflex
®
home gyms were a significant part of my research results.
The exercises in my program, performed on a Bowflex
®
machine – 18 workouts (3 per week) – allowed the
participants to build muscle, which accelerated their metabolisms, and produced faster and greater fat
losses. The plan worked so well that it became know as The Bowflex
®
Body Leanness Program.
Obtaining leanness means to strip away the fat from under the skin as well as at deeper levels. Leanness
also implies a pleasing shape and tone to the skeletal muscles. You might say leanness is the opposite of
fatness. The people involved in my research certainly got rid of their excessive fatness in record time.
All the guidelines that were applied to my research, including simple exercise instructions and specific
menus to use, have been organized in the booklet you are now holding in your hands. It’s the next best
thing to actually going through one of my research projects. In fact, it’s probably better since nothing is
experimental. All of the fine points have been tried, tested and proven effective.
If you are overfat, and if you are interested in doing this program, there are several things you need to
understand about my experience. Since 1965, I’ve trained more than 10,000 overfat individuals. After many
years of pushing, coaxing, and listening to these trainees, certain traits became evident to me:
• People are not lazy by choice. They are forced into it by the confusion that surrounds the
abundance of fitness information that is available. If these individuals are given simple decisive
instructions, they will train very intensely.
• People, if they are provided with specific menus, will drastically alter their eating habits.
• Most of these people, however, will do neither of these challenging things for more than a week –
unless they quickly see and feel changes in their body.
The Bowflex
®
Body Leanness Program emerged from these findings.
If you want to get the best-possible results from this program, you must be willing to exercise very
intensely on the Bowflex
®
machine and adhere to a strict eating plan. In return, you’ll get my guarantee
that if you follow the program exactly as directed, you’ll observe the pounds and inches disappear on
almost a weekly basis.
Now it’s your turn to get excited, and get started!
Sincerely,
Dr. Ellington Darden
