Breathe Your Way To Fitness

    Like many of us, Jill Johnson was unhappy with her weight. She felt lethargic and weak. By taking matters into her own hands, she lost 50 pounds using a revolutionary method of conditioning she developed!  Oxycise!, a deep breathing workout, jump-starts metabolism and increases energy. The results of the workout have been so impressive that Johnson produced sales of more than 140,000 units of her video/book package in only eight months. "So many people were interested in my 'secret' to weight loss and good health that I began teaching my methods," Johnson explains. "Soon, they wanted more materials, so I decided to put it all down in a book and demonstrate my methods on video. Now people want an Oxycise! studio." So, she responded to the demand and in January opened her first Oxycise! studio in Littleton.

    Dr. Robert Girandola, a professor of exercise science at the University of Southern California, was skeptical about the program. Yet, in a study he conducted on Oxycise!, subjects burned 140 percent more calories with Oxycise! than when riding a stationary bike. With only a 15 minute commitment each day, exercisers can reduce their body fat, lower their cholesterol levels, increase metabolism, and improve their overall health using Johnson's method. "Many people think my system is too good to be true," Johnson says, "but the results speak for themselves." To receive information on Oxycise! or to order a workout video or cassette, call toll free, 888-OXYCISE, or log on to www.oxyciseplus.com. "I was in the worst shape of my life when I started and now I'm in the best," laughs Johnson. "If it worked for me, it can work for anyone."
