***************************
*A* A New Body!
***************************
How would you like to buy a new body? Wouldn't it be fun if you could just go downtown to a "Body Shop" and pick out the exact model you wanted, then try it on for size and take it home with you! But what if the cost for a new body was very expensive, and you had to work for at least a year, and make payments on it before you could pick it up? Would you still want it, even if you couldn't have it immediately? And what if you received your new body, but then found out you would have to continue paying a daily "maintenance fee" in order to keep it?

Well, instead of paying for your new body with money, would you be willing to pay with time -- say a "price" of 30 minutes per day? Or how about even half that time? Here's the deal...If you are willing to spend 15 minutes of your time doing Oxycise! every day, you really can have a new body!

The catch is that it may take a few months, or 6 months, or a year....or possibly even longer. Would the "cost" still be worth it? Would you still pay 15 minutes a day, for several months, or even a year or more, in exchange for a whole future of better health? And would you be willing to keep making "payments" -- in the form of regular Oxycise! workouts -- in order to keep your new body in "top form" for the rest of your life? I think most of us would agree that the joy of having a healthy, fit, well-shaped body would be well worth almost any effort!

You really CAN have the "new body" you want, if you want to "pay the price". If you are willing to work toward that goal and invest some time every day, you will begin to see and feel positive changes. Your body will begin to undergo a gradual transformation. And you will come to know a new sense of joy and freedom.

Your new body is waiting!

*** TRISH ***

April 24, 2002

"In Sept, 2001, I had to have a hysterectomy. I was so weak for about a month before
the operation, and had some complications afterward that did not allow me to exercise
for 2 months after the operation. I had gained 20 lbs. just by not Oxycising! My eating
habits did not change. The only thing that had changed was that I was not doing Oxycise!

"Just about 1 month ago, I started my daily routine of 6:00 am 5 days a week and I can
tell you I have lost 4 inches and 8 lbs. Again, the only thing I changed was doing the
Oxycise! 15 minutes a day with power!

"I still have 14 more lbs to go, but I KNOW Oxycise! makes a difference. I have set a goal
for myself to lose this weight slowly so that I can be healthy in the process, total weight
lost expected in the next 30 days, by June 24th. I will keep you posted on my progress.

"You can't tell me this Oxycise! doesn't work. I am living proof!"

Sincerely,
Trish Whinery,
Certified Level One Oxycise Instructor

*C* Questions & Answers
*******************************
Q: "I have not Oxycised in a while, but am gearing up to start. My question is this: How do I flex and breathe with gusto without pulling a muscle? I tend to do this, so should I do it with less gusto and will it still work?"

A: Always "listen" to your body. Don't overdo anything to the point of causing injury. The most important part of Oxycise! is the breathing -- moving lots of air in and out of your body. Make that your top priority. DO try to flex and stretch and make your muscles work, but know your limits and don't push yourself too far or too fast. Some people automatically do things in a very physical way, and use lots of effort. Others may not be putting enough effort into the breathing or the workouts. Try to make an honest evaluation of your own effort. Are you working too hard, or not hard enough? If your heart rate is within your target range, or training zone, you are probably
working at the right level of "gusto"!

Q: How do I figure my "training zone" heart rate?

A: Start out with the "magic number" of 220. Then subtract your age. If your age is 40, the result will be 180. This is considered to approximate your "maximum safe heart rate".

Then multiply that number (Your maximum safe heart rate, or MHR) by 50% (.50) to calculate the low end of your training zone (90 beats per minute in this case)

Multiply your MHR by 85% (.85) to determine the high end of your range (153 beats per minute in this case).

The American College of Sports Medicine recommends that beginners work at the low end of their range; Only competitive athletes should work as high as 85 percent.

*****************************************************************
*E* How Do I Get Started With the Oxycise! Program?
*****************************************************************
There are several different ways to get started on the road to permanent weight control and better health with Oxycise!

* If you are just beginning to do Oxycise!, It's essential to have at least ONE of the following:

Level 1 video set
"Oxycise!" (the book)
"Easy Does It" Level 1 video set (moves at a slower pace, and has no floor positions)

Each of the three methods includes all the information you need to start breathing your way to success!

* It may be very helpful to have one of the Level 1 video sets AND the book "Oxycise!" because each method has its own advantages. (It's nice to be able to refer to the book for written explanations, and the video for visual instructions.)

* The following books are great "options" to add:

1."Chart Your Success"
Practical tips and extra information about target heart rate, cholesterol, body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio, body fat percentage; how to measure accurately, height and weight charts, self-tests to help you determine your own personal best, pages for recording your progress, & more.

2. "Fuel for Success"
Are you giving your body the best food "fuel" possible? Great suggestions from Jill Johnson for healthier eating--but not a required part of the program.

After you have mastered the Oxycise! Basic Breath and the Level 1 workout, you may enjoy challenging yourself with new body positions to increase your strength and flexibility even more -- we have TEN different workouts to choose from! (see the website link below).

All Oxycise! products carry our 30 day money-back guarantee.
