November 2010 Mile High Body Bailout What is the Mile High Body Bailout?

Mile High Body Bailout is a fitness coaching program designed to help individuals that are struggling to fit the cost of a personal trainer into their monthly budget but still need and want the personal attention of private coaching.

How did Mike Pender find you? KC: Some members of my gym referred Mike to me.

What was going on with Mike Pender when he came to see you? Tell me briefly, his “story.”KC: Mike had a variety of challenges when he came to me. He suffered from gout, lower back problems, zero energy and he was depressed that playing or picking up his kids was almost physically impossible.

What were his specific goals?  KC: He felt awful about the way he looked. He wanted a flat stomach and to feel strong and energetic again. His number one goal was to be able to play with his kids and look at himself in the mirror and feel proud.

What kind of program did you set him up on? KC: Three days a week of strength training alternating between upper body and lower body; 2-3 days of short intense interval training. We focused a lot of attention on improving his mobility and flexibility (which was a big cause for his back problems.)

What were your nutritional recommendations?  KC: Mike ate 5-6 small meals a day with a balance of protein, carbs and fats. He was strict 6 days of the week and had one “free day.” He could eat what ever his heart desired

How long did he do this? How how many days a week did he train with you? What did he do on his own?  KC: Mike took part in my 12 week SUMMER MELTDOWN program (3 months) we met 3x a week for strength training and he did the interval cardio part on his own.

Anything funny about training him? Anything that was uniquely Mike Pender? What did he complain about? How did he feel when he was half way through? Does he feel satisfied?  KC: Mike struggled the first few weeks. He has a great sense of humor so he let me know how many times he woke up in his sleep screaming my name. Or how he wished he never heard of a Bulgarian squat. During his 3 months he came down with the flu twice, but was right back on track as soon as his strength returned. When Mike saw his before and after photos he felt he was looking at a different person which he then stated he was.

Mile High Body Bailout (MHBB) is a fitness coaching program designed to help individuals that are struggling to fit the cost of a personal trainer into their monthly budget but still need and want the personal attention of private coaching.  

Every month you’ll receive an individualized training manual loaded with photos of every exercise you'll perform during that specific training phase.  On top of the training manual, you will also receive two monthly in-person training sessions. Since accountability is critical to your success, once or twice a week, I’ll  check in with you to see how you are progressing and give an action task or assignment that you’ll have to complete if you are not staying on task. The assignments are mandatory, and failure to complete them will negatively impact your progress.

What can you expect and how effective is the program? 

I'm well known for backing up everything I sell with a rock-solid guarantee, and the Mile High Body Bailout is no exception.

By the end of the program, I promise you will:

1. Feel healthier and more energetic

2. Look leaner and more defined

3. Be stronger

4. Have lost an average of 0.5 to 1 lb of fat per week

5. Be on track to reach all your goals independently!

So here’s the deal. If you do everything you’re asked to do, complete all your action tasks and assignments, I GUARANTEE that you will be 100% satisfied with your results. I will come through on every one of those promises – or I will give you every penny back.Is there a catch? Yes –  It’s based on your word to do everything you say you will do.

Q: I want to get  lean, but find cardio excruciatingly boring. Everyone tells me this is the only way.  Is aerobic exercise the only way to lose fat? What should I do first, weights or cardio?

A: Hit the weights first.  It's based on the rule of motor-unit recruitment. Always start with the most complex task first, then end with the easiest.  Now for my anti-cardio rant.

When I see people torturing themselves for hours on end each week without losing weight,  I really feel bad for them.  They’ve been duped into believing that aerobic exercise is king for ridding themselves of excess fat.   When I was running my training business in Los Angeles, I had several occasions where results had to be made yesterday. Knowing that, I had my clients spend less time on “aerobic training.”  On average, the most time I’ll prescribe to cardio is 15 -20 minutes 3x a week (note: these brief sessions are for max effort so, no reading the paper or watching T.V.)  The rest of the time we work on nutritional habits, and using weight training as the weapon of choice for fat loss. Increasing your lean body mass (muscle) and developing healthy eating habits are the keys for long-term weight loss and health.  Research from the University of Wyoming has shown that 5 hours per week of exercise produces the best results.  Anything below this threshold  fails to produce optimal results.  So, I like having 3 strength training sessions: 2–3 twenty minute metabolic training sessions: grouped in with walking, bike rides etc.

Here’s a glimpse at a few methods I employ when it’s fat-wacking time!1.  Use compound lifts and supersets2.  Alternate rep schemes for each work out 3.  Keep rest periods short 30–90 seconds depending on the exercises used4.  Barbell and Dumbbell Complexes 5.  Metabolic circuits

"A couple of years ago my workout consisted of a cardio routine six days a week and I began to quickly see that I was not gaining the results I had hoped for.  Next, putting all my effort into a weight-training program I saw some results but again not the results I had hoped for considering the amount of time I put into weight training.   Discouragement set in and I began to feel that I was wasting my time at the gym.  When Kevin offered an eight-week "Aspirations" program I decided to sign up.  Kevin constructed a weight-training program and devised a meal plan specifically to help me reach my goals.  At the end of eight weeks I lost seven percent of body fat and lost 12 lbs.  I am now a firm believer that weight training and nutrition go hand in hand.  Shopping at the grocery store and cooking now have a whole new meaning.  The results of the "Aspirations" program are a whole new level of energy, a lifetime of nutrition and exercise, fitting into my wardrobe and having friends and family comment on how great I look.  A little bit of "Aspiration" goes a long way and now I continue working on achieving new goals."
