Exercise Franchise SuperSlow Zone® Optimizes Muscle Development And Results With Univera LifeSciences® ProductsPosted: Tuesday, November 25th, 2008 SuperSlow Zone® adds high-performance line of natural products to optimize the results of SuperSlow® strength training. Orlando, Fla. – November 25, 2008 - The SuperSlow Zone® has done it again. The concept that revolutionized convenience and effectiveness in strength training through two, twenty-minute workouts has added a high-performance line of natural products from Univera LifeSciences® to give SuperSlow Zone® clients even greater results. Univera® products were selected to ensure that SuperSlow Zone® clients achieve maximum results in minimum time. A select set of Univera® products increase the body’s ability to repair itself, optimizing SuperSlow Zone® workouts so clients optimize their muscle, strength, metabolism, focus, joint health and overall energy levels. In short, it gives them more of what they came to the SuperSlow Zone® for in the first place. “I found Univera® products after reading the book The Metabolic Plan by Steven Cherniske, M.S. It was the most scientifically-grounded book, in nutrition and focused on the ‘value of muscle’ in our daily living that I had ever read. Getting one’s metabolism right and their muscle mass up are the foundation for longevity,” said Madeline Ross, CEO of the SuperSlow Zone®. “I was so impressed with the comprehensive nature of his work that I flew out to meet Univera® chief science officer, Stephen Cherniske, to learn about his products,” Ross said. “Then the world of Univera® opened, and it was unavoidable – we needed to offer these products to our clients. As we age, we have to give our body the best natural compounds available to maximize our strength training efforts. Univera® does this… because our clients say so.” Univera® products are plant-based and are developed in two full-scale DNA genomics and proteomics labs. This level of science, in natural products, is unheard of today. In addition to research and development, the parent company fully integrates a “farm to family” approach whereby they grow and harvest their raw materials in five countries, manufacture at a pharmacological level, and distribute throughout North America and Korea. Univera® products enable our clients’ bodies to naturally flip on its ability to regenerate at the DNA level, thus acting as both insurance for and a potentiator of their SuperSlow Zone® workout and results. Univera® products help the body uncharacteristically repair itself at levels of a much younger person. The results speak for themselves. “Once they add Univera® products to their workout, they’re hooked,” Ross said.

I will provide what I see are the ‘best of class resources’ for this. Specifically regarding the ‘exercise component’ of corporate wellness, which is a requirement of any worthwhile plan, I will outline what produces results and thus return on investment (ROI) for a company. It has to be ‘on-site,’ clinically-controlled, like the standards used for medical labs, convenient, safe, efficient and effective,” Ross explained. “SuperSlow Zone® is ‘on-site’ three ways: built inside the company, a modular or a mobile SSZ. SuperSlow Zone® is THE choice for corporate wellness exercise.” SuperSlow® has been the leading strength training protocol for more than 26 distinguished years.

You have to have all three to support a client in being and doing more than they ever imagined. I have spent years learning, and still continue to learn, to make the best medical assessment as the basis for care and support of my clients. You have to have this as a starting point.” The conference will take place October 15 -18, with exhibits on October 16 -18.

Health and Exercise Franchise SuperSlow Zone® Announces Strategic Partnership with Transitions Lifestyle System™Posted: Thursday, August 21st, 2008 SuperSlow Zone®, a distinctive health and exercise franchise, announces a strategic partnership with Transitions Lifestyle System™ to merge its healthy- eating and weight-loss program with SuperSlow® strength training Orlando, Fla. – August 21, 2008 – SuperSlow Zone® recently teamed up with Transitions Lifestyle System™ to integrate its SuperSlow® strength training protocol with Transition’s™ healthy-eating and fat-loss system. Combining Transitions™ and SuperSlow® is an optimal exercise and health program for those who are looking to lose a few, or a lot, of unwanted pounds or inches and those with medical concerns that a dedicated workout and diet protocol would substantially help. People who are interested in achieving their ideal muscle-to-fat ratio will find the integration of these two programs especially valuable. Transitions Lifestyle System™ is a scientifically-supported, food-based, educational lifestyle change, which includes natural, non-caffeine supplements to kick start faster weight (fat) loss. SuperSlow® has been the leading strength training protocol for more than 26 distinguished years. The SuperSlow® method is an expert-supervised, 20-minute, twice-a-week, strength training protocol that has proven to be the safest, most efficient and effective form of strength training available. SuperSlow Zone’s® clients are men and women of all ages who seek a professional service that delivers maximum results in a minimum amount of time. The addition of Transitions Lifestyle System™ to the SuperSlow® protocol is designed to bolster an already-proven, muscle-building system with the nutritional education and coaching that SSZ clients need to achieve optimal weight, fitness and health. Julie Pendry, 26-year Nutrition Education Consultant, is part of the team to kick-start success for each SSZ franchise location as they launch Transitions™ with SuperSlow® Strength training. Two years ago (2006) Julie began incorporating Transitions™ into her own private practice after running a pilot study with a select group of women (either perimenopausal or menopausal) for whom losing weight (fat) had previously remained the illusive dream. Julie determined that if Transitions™ was able to help this group of dedicated women then it was the real deal and would be able to help anyone willing to follow the plan! Needless to say, the pilot study was wildly successful and now Julie has converted almost all of her practice exclusively to the Transitions Lifestyle System™. At the SuperSlow Zone® location in Winter Park, Fla., several clients are already utilizing the integration of these two programs. In six weeks, clients ranging in age from 25 to 59 years old have averaged a loss of 15 pounds each, along with a loss of 3 percent body fat and 12.2 inches. One of these clients, Deb, a 45-year-old CPA and ex-smoker, said this of her experience, “I have tried many, many exercise programs and diets over the years, but I have never felt so healthy and looked so good due to my last six weeks in this program.” For more information about SuperSlow Zone® please visit www.SuperSlowZone.com.

I realized that all the aerobic exercise never paid off, except maybe in the ‘endorphin kick.’ My weight lifting routine was just not cutting it either - either too boring or not enough time to work out as much as I thought I needed to see results. I started at SuperSlow Zone® and I cannot tell you how unbelievable it has been for me.” Smith continued, “I have gone down a size in my pants. I was not trying to do that, but over the last 6 months of consistently coming to SuperSlow Zone® and making increased progress, my inches have really gone down. I feel better and younger than I have in years. I get compliments all the time. Overall, I feel that I am pushed to my limit each workout; achieving strength goals I never thought I could reach and feel better than I have in years. I am addicted to SuperSlow Zone®.” For more information about SuperSlow Zone® - Lone Tree, Colo., please visit http://www.SuperSlowZone.com.

Jill Rex, a 63-year-old sales professional and client of SuperSlow Zone® - Sarasota, Fla. said, “Because of SuperSlow Zone, this year was the first year I was able to walk without a limp and to wear small heels all day long; tennis shoes are now not necessary. Two years ago, I had surgery on my foot and had the muscle on the back of my leg lengthened. I lost most of the muscle tone in my leg, so I walked with a limp. I could hardly stand to wear any type of dress shoes unless they had a very low heel. I am a sales representative for a hospital equipment company, and part of my job is to attend trade shows. I dreaded going to these shows because I knew I would have to stand on my feet all day long. I would start off the day in cute two inch heels, and about noon I would put on low heels, and then when I would head for my hotel room for tennis shoes. My leg muscle is still smaller than the other, but it has come a long way with SuperSlow, and I am sure soon it will be better than before my surgery.” Elaborating on Rex’s story, Pam Kirscher, co-owner SuperSlow Zone® Sarasota, Fla. and Certified SuperSlow® Instructor, said, “Today, many professionals are working longer and retiring later. People lose 50 percent of their strength between ages 40 to 80 unless they exercise. The SuperSlow® protocol helps these professionals be strong, healthy and vital so they are able to continue to be productive and feel good about themselves as the years pass.” For more information about SuperSlow Zone® - Sarasota, Fla., please visit http://www.SSZtamiami.com.

Boca Raton, Fla. – June 5, 2008 – The Boca Raton, Fla. location of health and exercise franchise SuperSlow Zone® was recently featured on WPTV News Channel 5. WPTV is the local NBC affiliate in Boca Raton, Fla. The subject of the news feature, and subsequent article on the news channel’s web site, was entitled “Working Out in Your Work Clothes…Really.” The report featured Rebecca Kline, a SuperSlow Zone® client, and Dara Carvalho, a well known wellness coach and fitness instructor. Business owner and mother, Rebecca Kline, recently lost 12 pounds and four pant sizes utilizing the SuperSlow® method at her local SuperSlow Zone location in Boca Raton, Fla. The SuperSlow® method is a by-appointment, one-on-one personal strength training protocol that requires only a 20-minute workout twice a week, producing remarkable results. In Rebecca’s case, she doesn’t even need to change out of her work clothes to exercise. In the news feature, which aired May 26 and 27 and June 2, SuperSlow® instructor Randy Fine explained how each repetition is “positive for 10 seconds, then negative for 10 seconds, bringing the muscle to momentary fatigue.” This method allows for maximum muscle utilization in a safe and stable environment. In addition to the general exerciser, the SuperSlow® method is also recommended for those with any medical diagnosis and/or health condition, including people with knee and hip problems who might normally find it impossibleto strength train in a safe and effective manner. Dara Carvalho, a wellness coach and fitness instructor, decided to give the SuperSlow Zone a try and was amazed at the results. In the article she said, “It’s amazing. I teach classes for a living, and it’s incredible how much different it is. The slow contractions, the time it takes, it fatigues the muscles. After three reps, I’m shaking.” Gail Case, owner and operator of SuperSlow Zone® - Boca Raton, said, “SuperSlow Zone is a fitness phenomenon, and to be showcased by the news media before we are open a year is unheard of.

Orlando Health and Exercise Franchise SuperSlow Zone® Assures Clients With IACET AccreditationPosted: Friday, May 9th, 2008 SuperSlow Zone®, Orlando’s distinctive health and exercise franchise, responds to CBS News report by educating its clients about the value of its IACET accreditation. Orlando, Fla. – May 9, 2008 – SuperSlow Zone®, headquartered in Orlando, Fla., recently responded to a CBS News report entitled, “Certified Personal Trainers.” The report, which ran on April 3, shed a negative light on the personal training industry by focusing on the lack of regulations and professional standards. Although the report was unfavorable, CEO of SuperSlow Zone®, LLC, Madeline Ross agreed that the personal training market is, for the most part, undisciplined. To avoid this, and to institute professional standards, Ross has made the IACET accreditation a priority of the SuperSlow Zone® franchise. IACET (http://www.iacet.org) is known as the premier, standard-setting organization for continuing education and training providers. IACET Authorized Providers complete a comprehensive application and undergo a strict evaluation of their educational processes according to the ANSI/IACET standards. Only IACET Authorized Providers can offer the IACET CEU, the hallmark of quality in continuing education and training. “Our focus has been to continually maintain SuperSlow Zone® with professional standards through our accreditation by IACET and through the design, development and functioning of the SuperSlow Zone® locations,” said Ross. “SuperSlow Zone® Institute is the organization through which Certified SuperSlow® Instructors maintain their annual certification by fulfilling Continuing Education Units. This, of course, is a requirement of IACET and essential for the continual development of the SuperSlow Zone® personnel. The lack of accredited personal training certifications and, hence, the lack of continual education, is exactly the target of the CBS reporting.” For more information about SuperSlow Zone® please visit http://www.SuperSlowZone.com.

SuperSlow® Technique Recognized by “Men’s Health” MagazinePosted: Friday, November 30th, 2007 Men’s Health, America’s leading health magazine for men, recognizes SuperSlow for the third time as the most effective weight-lifting technique to get in shape. Nov 30, 2007 – Orlando, Fla.- SuperSlow continues gaining recognition “super fast” as a quick and effective way to exercise to build muscle, strength and endurance. Recently featured in Men’s Health Magazine for the third time, SuperSlow is a strength training technique developed by founder Ken Hutchins at the University of Florida Medical School. Under the supervision of a certified SuperSlow Instructor, the work out enables you to exercise specific muscle groups slowly, but effectively. It isn’t the speed that tones your muscle; it is what you do to it. The SuperSlow technique is the cornerstone service of SuperSlow Zone®, an Orlando, Fla. based franchise that is expanding nationwide. “Working out 3 to 4 times per week is old news. In today’s fast paced world, people don’t have time to do that and don’t need to do that. But using the revolutionary SuperSlow workout, you need only one or two days a week for 20 minutes to accomplish and maintain your goals,” Madeline Ross, SuperSlow Zone CEO, said. “Better still, because the training is slow you may not even break a sweat and clients workout in their regular clothes. They get in, get out and get on with their day,” Ross added. This simple, but still demanding, training technique continues to be recognized by some of the top publications in the nation and is fast becoming the most respected full-body workout method. With SuperSlow all you need is 20 minutes one to two times a week for a full-body workout to maintain a healthy, vital lifestyle. The recent story on SuperSlow in Men’s Health Magazine noted that this technique “is a lot safer for the injury-prone, since many exercise strains and pains occur within smaller stabilizing muscles that become over-worked when you’re handling heavier loads of weight.” “Being featured in Men’s Health for our third time is really great news! The magazine is supporting, once again, the value of the SuperSlow as safe, efficient and highly effective. You just can beat great results from a 20 minute work out, twice a week. For people who work out and are in shape, we help them capture more free time for their life. For those who want to get into shape, which is most of the world, we are simply the best,” Ross said. About SuperSlow Zone: SuperSlow strength training method was created and developed by founder Ken Hutchins out of an Osteoporosis Study in 1982 at the University of Florida Medical School. The SuperSlow Zone offers SuperSlow strength training to enable busy people to achieve and maintain strong, healthy, and attractive bodies. SuperSlow is accredited by the prestigious IACET . Additionally, customers will benefit from Zone Coaching, which introduces Dr. Sears’ method of eating, recommends menus, develops meal plans, and a host of other services to achieve and maintain optimal weight and health goals.
