Harvard Study Confirms: Aerobics and Cardio Are DEAD Here’s why I tell my patients aerobics and cardio are not the way to exercise: Dr. Sears Meet Dr. Sears...

They won’t protect you from heart disease! They won’t even boost your energy! Even worse, aerobics and cardio training – the kind most doctors and even the federal government promote as the path to good health – can actually wreck your body. Do enough, and it will make you sick, tired, and old before your time. This Harvard Health Professionals Study backs me up on this. Researchers followed over 7,000 people. They found that the key to protect your heart is exactly the opposite of “cardio.” It’s not endurance. It’s intensity. In fact, they proved that the more intense the exertion, the lower their risk of heart disease.1 And that’s not all. Another Harvard study compared vigorous and light exercise.2 Those who performed exercise that is more vigorous had a lower risk of death than those who performed less vigorous exercise. Aerobics and cardio are low-intensity, long-duration exercises. This Harvard study clearly shows that this kind of exercise increases your risk of heart disease and death. Enduring hours of drudgery only to increase your risk of disease doesn’t make sense. It isn’t natural, and it doesn’t work. As I showed Terri, there’s a better way to burn fat, boost your lungpower, and build a strong heart. PACE Is the Most Effective Fat Burner … and the Easiest It shocks most people, but Terri started doing PACE by walking for 45 seconds, then stopping to rest. It’s true. All she did was walk for a few seconds and rest for a few seconds, then repeat. That was the level she felt comfortable with. It wasn’t intimidating. Starting with a very humble and easy workout, we slowly made progressive changes to each of Terri’s workouts. Within the space of just a few weeks, Terri went from walking for 45 seconds to “power-walking” up steep hills. Today she can run, sprint, and do calisthenics. As you can see, Terri made remarkable progress: Body Fat (lbs) Lean Body Mass (lbs) HDL (mg/dL) Triglycerides (mg/dL) Over the course of 11 months, Terri: Lost 68 pounds of fat Built 14 pounds of new muscle Raised HDL (good cholesterol) by over 33% Lowered Triglycerides (blood fat) by over 36% PACE is proving effective across the board, from fat loss to cardiovascular health and beyond. Lowering triglycerides is especially helpful for Terri, because triglycerides are more of a risk factor for heart disease than cholesterol – especially in women. Terri’s lungpower is on the rise, too. Terri’s office is on the second floor. Before she started PACE, she would always take the elevator. Now she bounds up the 25 steps three or four times a day without thinking about it. Praise for PACE From World-Renowned Doctors “Dr. Sears blows away the conventional medical wisdom – could it be that cardio training is bad for your health? Dr. Sears makes the impossible seem possible, well written and referenced. This changes everything.” Ronald Klatz, MD, DO Founder and President American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine “Dr. Al Sears has distinguished himself as a leader in the area of Anti-Aging Medicine and recently in cell and telomere biology. Now, he boldly introduces the PACE fitness program. This challenges present day exercise theory. However, the program is backed by considerable research, and I predict will become a standard part of a progressive Anti-Aging Protocol.” Frederic J. Vagnini, MD, FACS Medical Director of the Heart, Diabetes and Weight Loss Centers of NY “If you exercise, you should read this book, and immediately improve the quality of your workout time. If you don’t exercise, you should read this book, and start right away on the road to a longer, healthier, more vibrant life.” Frank Shallenberger, MD, HMD, ABAAM Medical Director, The Nevada Center For Anti-Aging Medicine “Dr. Sears masterfully explains how we can flip the switches that allow access to the store of human vitality that resides within each one of us. We understood how to do this when we were young and now Dr. Sears gives us the evidence-based means to tap into our potency, strength, and stamina with intention.” Paul L. Hester, MD, MBA “Unlike any exercise program that’s come before it, PACE enables you to get fit and stay fit regardless of where you started. It gives your body the chance to make the changes you need to stay lean, trim and disease-free.” Dr. Lynne Kavulich Founder and Director of the American Wellness Center PACE Is a Growing Revolution PACE is already practiced by thousands of people in dozens of countries around the world. PACE overturns years of failed ideas and exercise advice. PACE upends current exercise trends by revealing their flaws and offering a more effective, more natural way. PACE stand for Progressively Accelerating Cardiopulmonary Exertion. It’s an approach I developed to help my patients get long-term results no matter how de-conditioned or out-of-shape they were. You can start PACE anywhere and at any level. For Terri, all she could do when she started was walk. But today she’s lost over 68 pounds and can sprint up hill. PACE shows you how to replace flawed and ineffective theories that were mistakenly accepted without proof with what really works. In a matter of weeks, you’ll: Build strength and reserve capacity in your heart and lungs. Avoid heart attacks and cardiovascular disease. Develop a powerful and disease-resistant immune system. Dramatically boost your energy levels. Burn fat while you rest like never before. The key to PACE’s amazing effectiveness is already designed in your metabolism in something I call your “adaptive response.” PACE allows your body to make adaptive responses that sculpt your body and strengthen your internal organs. PACE activates these changes, like flipping a switch.
