What if the fitness gurus are giving us terribly bad advice-advice that results in poor posture, back pain, losing muscle, and putting on weight when you exercise? Certified Professional Trainer Doug Splittgerber and Physical Therapist Debra Corbo say that is exactly what is happening. Overcoming their own health challenges, they developed a system of exercises that vastly improves posture and fully stretches muscles. They say that a lot of knee surgeries, arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome and other painful conditions can be prevented with proper exercise. Get ready for some very surprising challenges to what you think you know about fitness.
Their book Your Body Your Responsibility is a profound paradigm shift that destroys many of your beliefs about fitness and health with replaces them with a more intelligent approach to fitness that results in better posture, less pain, and better health. It comes with a DVD that walks you through the exercises they developed. Their website is www.YourBodyYourResponsibility.com. They also host live call in radio shows on www.1100kfnx.com on Saturdays 9-10AM EST and on www.healthylife.net on Tuesdays noon-3-4PM EST.
