Client's 'Weight Loss Struggles' GONE!

Listening to client's struggle every day with their concerns about 'weight loss' wasn't exactly what we signed up for when we started our SuperSlow Zone® franchise two and a half years ago. The good news is, we can help and our client's tune completely changes!

SuperSlow Zone® Personal Strength Training Paired With the Transitions Lifestyle System™ - Phenomenal Results!

Our client's results come from our amazing SuperSlow Zone® personal strength training paired with the Transitions Lifestyle System™ [program]. Fantastic, sustainable client results are what we are really in this business for. Our latest Biggest Loser Challenge proved once again the simple power of combining our amazing work out with a sensible, science-based eating approach, a lifestyle change that is doable and very effective. Our contestant's end results are not just good, they are phenomenal!!

Biggest Loser Challenge – Who Will Shed The Most Pounds, Inches And Body Fat?

On January 14th, 2010 we announced to our staff and clients our Biggest Loser Challenge. We held a contest for who would 'shed the most pounds, inches and body fat' over 12 weeks. All contestants did SuperSlow® personal strength training. The contestants had an option to 'do their eating plan' or participate in our healthy eating program called Transition Lifestyle System. To get our contest started, we held a GET GOALS PARTY in which we "weighed in" and 25 of the people who came in that night signed up for the competition and contributed $25 to the winning pot. That means $625 for the Biggest Loser. Not bad for a small fitness and lifestyle business!

Better Results Than Biggest Loser TV Show

I think that our contestants actually did better than the real contestants on the national BIGGEST LOSER TV show simply because of the efficiency and effectiveness of our program: SuperSlow® personal strength training combined with Transitions Lifestyle System. And by that I mean our clients are doing a 20 minute workout 2 times a week and eating an everyday healthy lifestyle plan! Compare that to 3-6 hours a day/7days a week of workouts and calorie counting every day- no thank you! Our plan is something you can stick to for life! Our clients don't lose weight/fat and then bounce and gain the weight back- they maintain their weight/fat loss and/or continue losing. That's the biggest difference.

So Who Was Going To Be Our Biggest Loser Winner?

Jodie - Competitive in Nature, This Contest Finally Got Her Going [Click here to see her total results.]

12 Week Biggest Loser Challenge
  • Total Inches lost: 20.8 or 8.20%
  • Total Weight lost: 24.4bs or 11.10 %
  • Total Body Fat lost: 8.22 or 19.62%

My bets were on Jodie Streeter at the time. She wanted it, and she wanted it BAD! Bad enough that she was willing to give up alcohol for an entire month, not her idea, but I challenged her to it and after lots of grunting and groaning I dragged an "okay" out of her along with a "but I'm not going to be happy about it."

Now this might not sound like a lot to sacrifice, but Jodie is a guy's kind of girl. She is athletic, strong, determined, and every guy's friend, and that means lots of beer drinking!! But just being a friend to these boys is the issue, now she wants a boyfriend and that's what I believe is driving Jodie. She's competitive yet underneath it all she's sweet and sincere and beautiful, all the perfect qualities for a winner! I just pushed and pushed and she did not push back nearly as hard as I thought. But really what had inspired Jodie the most was bringing in Kelli Flagg. That and that she was determined to beat Nancy.

Kelli – Over All Biggest Loser To Date [Click here to see her total results.]

Overall Total Loss Since Start of SSZ, Approximately 1 Year and 3 Months
  • Inches: 52.25
  • Weight: 57.2
Kelli Flagg is my overall biggest loser to-date: down 57lbs and 52 inches! She wishes the contest would have been sooner because by the time the contest started, she didn't have enough to lose! Kelli's comment to me this week was "how does someone this SMALL push this much weight" with a little giggle at the end. I WAS THRILLED! As her starting weight was 200lbs, she had come so far from tears in my consultation room and surrounded with doubt in the program, to now weighing 138lbs; you can't take the smile off of her face or stop her from talking about SuperSlow Zone® for a minute. At the final weigh in, I caught Kelli with the second runner up Nancy, "I may not have won this one, but look at my muscles" as she flexed her now beautiful arm! I too am very proud. Just a side note about determination: Kelli has paid me in quarters for her workouts, I kid you not. She and her husband own a small business that got hit hard by the recession, but that did not stop Kelli from working out. She has not missed a week in a year.

Nancy - , "Keep going, this works better than anything, trust me I've tried them all!" [Click here to see her total results.]

12 Week Biggest Loser Challenge
  • Total Inches lost: 35.85 or 14.53%
  • Total Weight lost: 33.2lbs or 15.82 %
  • Total Body Fat lost: 13.46 or 34.70%

Nancy Ballard too cried in the consult room but these were not the only tears we have seen from Nancy. Nancy cries through workouts, cries when she doesn't want to workout, and cries when she's jumping for joy because she LOVES her workouts! So to say the least Nancy is a crier and we've all come to love this about Nancy.

For the last couple weeks we all thought Nancy was in the lead. She came in every week looking like someone took a shaver and scrapped off another couple inches. Nancy, who lost 30+ pounds in 12 weeks, was also caught encouraging all the others in the contest, "Keep going, this works better than anything, trust me I've tried them all!"

Anne- Tried Everything…Went To Her Doctor About Metabolism. Nothing Wrong! [Click here to see her total results.]

12 Week Biggest Loser Challenge

  • Total Inches lost: 18.5 or 9.15%
  • Total Weight lost: 13.8 or 9.04%
  • Total Body Fat lost: 3.9 or 17.26%

Another one that had tried everything was Anne Adkins. 29 years old and at her wits end with her weight. She even went to the doctor and had tests run to see what was wrong with her metabolism. Nothing. She ran and she ran and she ran; maybe jogging would help. No, it didn't work.

Finally, Anne asked big brother Ken what he was doing because he looked so great. He told her SuperSlow Zone®, adding "but it's probably too hard for you." So she came in on a secret mission. By the end of her first 6 weeks in Transitions Lifestyle program, she was down 14 lbs and 14 inches and she was ecstatic! So much so that she hinted to me that she was interested in looking for a job in the "health arena" "something LIKE this." So I offered her a job and 3 months later she is being awarded as a superior SuperSlow Zone® Instructor by her new clients. "I'm one of the few people that can say, I love my job" says Anne. And what a testimony she is as she is now down 26 lbs and 27 inches- and in a size 4 jean over a period of 6 months. She gets so many compliments it's sickening!

Tara – So Far Off The Wagon, Was There Hope? [Click here to see her total results.]

12 Week Biggest Loser Challenge – THE WINNER
  • Total Inches lost: 42.25 or 18.71%
  • Total Weight lost: 27.6lbs or 17.03 %
  • Total Body Fat lost: 15.92 or 39.14%

And that leads me to Tara Kirkpatrick. Tara came in on January 1st and told me she had fallen so far off the wagon that she actually succumbed to her husband's request of brownies and ice cream for breakfast and, why not, it was his birthday!!! I really knew I had my hands full at that point.

Tara has suffered from bad knees, bad back, back headaches, you name it! So the complaints…they are mostly written by Tara for Tara. And this goes to show that dedication and support is all it takes. She showed up twice a week for 12 weeks and did Transitions Lifestyle program with only a couple cheats and WOW! she is down 40+ inches in 12 weeks of our program (I had to recalculate 4 or 5 times because I couldn't believe it myself). She looks and feels like a whole new person.

When asked what she was going to do with the money she won for being the contest winner, Tara said, "I don't know, I've never won anything but my husband is still without a job…" and one of the other contestants chimed in, "yeah, but you're gonna have to buy new clothes because your floating in the ones you're in." So however you look at it, it's a blessing in disguise.

To say the least, we are VERY VERY proud owners of SuperSlow Zone®. We too love what we do, and this is just one of the small benefits that we encounter on a daily basis.

Dedication and Results From SuperSlow Zone® + Transitions Lifestyle. See the proof below.

#5 Anne Adkins- THE STAFF BIGGEST LOSER

Photos - 12 Week Challenge

Anne's Story:

After turning 27 I began to gain weight, I was not sure what was happening if my metabolism was slowing or something more serious. I had several test run by a doctor to find out if anything was wrong, there wasn't.

I was running 5 miles a day 5 days a week and couldn't lose an ounce. As a last resort I decided to try SuperSlow Zone®, I had seen the dramatic changes in my brother who had been coming to SuperSlow Zone® and decided it would be worth it to check it out.

I began the workout program as well as the Transitions Lifestyle [healthy eating program] July 2010. By the end of my first six weeks I had lost over 14 pounds and 14 inches.

I kept up my workouts which was twice per week and maintained my Transitions Lifestyle, I never gained any weight back but kept losing, at a slower pace yet still losing and not gaining.

I was so impressed and excited about SuperSlow Zone® and what it did for me I approached the owner about working for her. I began my internship in November 2009 to become a Certified SuperSlow Zone® Level I Instructor. I just finished my certification this February 2010 and am one of the few people who can say that 'I Love My Job'!!

I did another cycle of the Transitions Lifestyle program beginning in January 2010 as we did a 'Biggest Loser' contest at Super Slow Zone.

Over the 12 week program I lost almost 14 more pounds and 18.5 inches!! I am so thrilled to tell people about Super Slow Zone and am living proof that it works!

Anne
