Win my ONE *FREE* Copy of Vince’s DVD Set

Creston BC

I enjoy a challenge of any kind and over the years I have engage in many such challenges in both sport and other activities. I returned to school in my thirties and graduated with a degree in Education from the University of Alberta. I developed knee problems. I consulted with a Sports Medicine Doctor, and he diagnosed arthritis and he suggested I get back into weight training, the best thing that that I have ever done. I was able to strengthen the connective tissue around the knee joints, and maintain muscle tone, this sustained me for about fifteen years. Eventually I had both knees replaced.
I had reach a plateau with my fitness training, and at that time, December, 2008, I decided to take a different approach. I was advised to check out Vince’s web site, I found it very interesting due to the fact that it was largely based on his own experiences and theory backed by an Honours degree in Kinesiology
You take personal responsible for your own progress, continuously challenging the body. I have always felt that you should put ‘can’t’ on one side, because I have always been of the opinion that if another person do it so can I.
I have been guided by the words of Joseph Murphy:- “By day and by night I am being prospered in all my interests.”1 I like the analogy of the wheel, the spokes representing all your interests and the hub a fit physical body, without which you would not able be to operate at optimum level.
My chronological age is 79 and my biological age is somewhat lower I would urge all those that have reach retirement that now is the time for you to pay more attention to fitness. Sooner would be much better. I personally feel that I have an obligation to keep fit and that medicine should change its emphasis from traditional methods to a balance with that of prevention and fitness.
I am ready now to move forward into the next phase of the program.

I have tried many workouts and have not had any luck with any of them. I need help getting back in shape and you are my last ray of hope!

Hi Joel,

At 38 years old I have struggled with my weight for as long as I can remember, even as a teenager I remember people telling me it was only puppy fat I had and that would go as I matured…wrong. It never did go and I know the biggest cause of it was because I have also been a comfort eater for most of my life.

I have suffered from depression for most of my adult life, mostly due to life events, losing close family members and also having PND after having my children.

Last year I lost my beloved Mum to Pnuemonia caused mostly through her having type 2 diabetes but instead of helping me to control my weight I again comfort ate anf the weight has continued to pile on.

It has gotten to the point now where I think enough is enough, I don’t want to put my 3 beautiful children (2 teenagers and a toddler) through what I have gone through with losing my Mum. I am currently on a healthy eating programme which is showing results and I have enjoyed going to the gym, following an interval training programme.

I have booked a holiday abroad with my children for July 2010 and I want to lose what I can to enable me to enjoy the break with my children and not sit being self concious about my weight.

I know this way over 250 words but then I have always been told I can talk for Britain, but that’s my reason for entering to win :)

I want vinces dvd set because i finally want to be able to take my shirt off at the beach and not be afraid of people calling me fat. I want vinces dvd set because I know that it will be a really positive change in my life and I will finally get the body of my dreams with it. I want to finally be able to be the strongest guy in the group instead of the fattest guy in the group. I want to get vinces dvd set so i can finally stand up for myself and know that I am stronger than the other guy and that i can beat the crap out of him. Please give me the free copy of his dvd set.

Hi Joel, I have been trying to follow you and Vince for a while with videos. I’m a grand parent who is trying to stay heathy and full of energy so I can play with the babies for years to come. I look at people around town with their grand kids, my age 51, and they can’t even pick one of them up because of being out of shape much less get out a teach them how to play sports and be heathy for their future. I’m healthy and still pop in my P90X videos, core, poly and yoga between workouts each week. With your information and Vince’s I work hard but don’t get the results I want because I don’t fully understand the combination what to work first and how. I’m more like the shade tree mechanic and want to be the rocket scientist. I look at people like ya’ll who have done it, including Nick Nilsson and want the knowledge to live longer, be healthy, be active, throw the ball or shoot the hoop with the grandkids when I’m 60. Ya’ll are the 3 people I want to say down the road too people made me what I am. I’m very lucky to have my health now because of people like you and would like to keep the tickle monster going for my great grandkids, Thank You.

Joel,

I would like to win the DVD set because I am in a race with Father Time. I am 52 and working hard to stay ahead using your program for eating right and different programs for weight training and fitness. Right now I feel that I am running even with him. I need a program to help me get ahead and stay ahead. This DVD set would help me do that. Don’t let Father Time get ahead of me! Thanks!

Hi,
I have to confess I didn’t have a weight problem when I was younger. Even after having 3 children my body seemed to spring back to shape. But slowly over the last 8 years, I have noticed areas of my body changing and difficulty in controlling this. After having my children, I found I wasn’t concentrating what I as putting into my body, the amounts and what time of the day. To cut a long story short (and before that big “M” hits me) I need to get rid of my ‘flubber blubber’ belly or baby belly and stop my waist from continually increasing in size. I’m sick of the constant jokes of ‘when’s the baby due?’
I am in the process of currently changing my diet and increasing my exercise from two days to four/five when time allows. With exercise to help strengthen my stomach muscles. The biggest thing that daunts me is the wide and varied information you get about weight loss and exercise. I mean….who do you believe and do they really know what they are talking about. The bottom line… the proof ‘really’ is in the pudding. Basically you have to have the dedication and belief in yourself and the programme to get results. I would love to have the opportunity to put this programme to the test and prove to others what results can be achieved….As well as being able to flaunt my ‘non-flubber’ flat belly in a bikini in summer. Hey… Pick-me!!!! Janet

I tried bodytrim system and it seemed not work much for me. I am looking forward to another system which can really help me to lose 5kg in 1-2 months.

First, everyone on this list “deserves” this … But you can only choose one winner. I would be your winner because of choices I have made this year and changes still in my future.

In February of 2009 I weighed 225 pounds and had over 35% body fat. With the pending birth of my first two grand children I decided to take charge and take back my health. Today I weigh 175# and have 18.5% body fat. All of this was accomplished by hard disciplined work, proper nutrition, intense exercise and smart choices. BUT … I am not done.

Having reached my initial goal, I still have a short term goal to get below 15% body fat by February 1, 2010 (my anniversary date of my new healthier life journey) and single digit body fat (less than 10%) by August 24, 2010 (my 57 birthday).

Lessons Learned: Fully committing to a better me has been a labor of love and effort that has resulted in far greater personal growth than losing the 50#. My belief in me, my self-confidence, my ability to finally conquer that last real roadblock have resulted in a self assurance I cannot describe.

Now on to continuous improvement.

(BTW – I look forward to seeing you in January.

Hi Joel,

I am a 25 yr old Grad student in UNC. I am originally from India and came to US in 2007. Well from my childhood I was a skinny guy looking for attention everywhere but never getting any motivation to hit the gym. Not before I started my college I started hitting the gym but I didnt know what to do and how to do till I got hold of a trainer who taught me the very basics of building muscles. I used to work on the routine without getting any astounding results. Not before I came to US I realized the concept of using body weight and free weights to really boost up the muscle building in less time. Now I have realized that inspite of being a HARDGAINER hard work and dedication can bring me the kind of physique i always wanted. I have been seen the changes in me in last 1 year. Not only I have grown strong but now I am more confident in anything I do. Vince’s DVD can be the guide for me to achieve the goals that I have been aiming for long. I know there is no alternative to hard work but proper guidance is also necessary and these DVD will no doubt serve as the ideal guide for me. Just to let you know I am only 140 lbs and 5.6′ but just by hard work and ‘never say no’ attitude today I can deadlift and squat more than 1.5 times my body weight. My goal is to do double this.

Thanks for all your help and looking forward to the result of this contest.

P.S even if I don’t get these DVDs I will continue my hard work in the gym.

I am an active bodybuilder and cyclist, aged 63. While I have achieved a lot and am fitter than many younger than I am, I am at a crossroads for achieving that next level and the level after that. Since I am semi-retired, I have the time to train effectively, given the right tools. I have a gym membership but need to achieve more than I can do with the limited skill sets of most physical trainers. The DVD is just such a training tool to bring me up to the level of physical development, endurance and speed to enter competitions with a chance of victory.

I am a 34year old female who is 5’3” and currently a size14 which makes me nearly as wide.When I was 19 I weighed 346lbs and through healthy eating and dedicated exercise I got down to a size2 and remained there for many years.Many of my coworkers and then my husband ( which was infinitely worse) started to comment about my breasts, also at about this time I switched jobs and was working a couple of night shifts and some day shifts within the same week. I started talking these stupid supplements to increase breast size and got hooked on sleeping pills.I’m happy to say I’ve been off of everything and clean but I can no longer achieve my burn.I have seen a doctor and he was impressed with my health for my size and suggested I join his weightloss plan and ease up on heavy weights.I’m at the end of my rope and if I’m going to be a horse ,I’ll at least be strong like one.I own a gym worth of equipment and I use it daily with the determination of a bear ..and I know my true self is still here- I just need a path to find her again!I would not waste this opportunity of guidance from someone I trust- after all my doctor doesn’t look like either of you two!

hi joel just to let you know first hand i am not broke just cheap!!!!! hahahahahah i read yr comment on not using money as an excuse and i agree right now im losing over 300,000$ in 2 houses and real estate in a very acrimonious divorce but i have my kids i have my health a loving extended family and about 20 extra lbs. that i just cant seem to lose i can afford the program but by reading all yr excellent advise on diet,cheating your way thin hints, and reccomendations i find that its easy to infer the way that your program works and have used what you have said thru your e-mails to get a better clue on how to survive the holidays without significant weight gain. as to attitude if i did it once i can always do it again so houses and property will not be a problem but losing weight is tuff so i would love to win vinces set and yours to finish the transformation which started 11 months ago and start my new life healthy happy and in great shape and even if i dont win between you and nick, and vince the excellent info is priceless and an incredible how to course that is given away free in small doses which always make me come back for more have an excellent holiday season and your family also thanks again.

I want it!! I need it!! I am absolutely interested. I’m very motivated and excited about getting my body in shape once and for all and keeping it that way. I’ve always struggled to get rid of those last 10 pounds and I can’t ever seem to keep it off. For once in my lifetime I would like to look great in a bathing suit, firm, fit and strong and not flabby. I’m confident your program will work for me. I want it and I will use it and I’m looking forward winning it.
Thank you for your consideration.

Joel,
I will use your program to prove that it really does work and with people all different shapes and sizes. Very few of my friends are a healthy weight and they all see me as “skinny,” so it’s very hard to find support to diet, train, and lose weight. They seem to (unintentionally) try to sabotage every one of my attempts to live a healthier life. As a busy honors high school student, I have very little time to work out; I need a program that tells me what to do and can help me stay on track through periods of depression. My mother has deep depression, so it’s also difficult to find support in my family. She thinks taking a walk every day and cutting out all the foods I love will help me lose weight. I know it’s not that simple, because I take eight hours of dance classes every week and have seen no change in my body. In the dance world, I feel a lot of pressure to become anorexic, but I want to find something that will give me a healthy, strong body that is the best it can be. I want to set a good example for my younger sister and help her to live better, as well as encourage my friends to live healthier lives.

Thanks so much for everything you do.

Hi Joel,
Great question to create some inner stirring. I have a pretty big health issue and family members that most certainly will benefit from my success with this program however here are some very personal reasons that I wish to share.

I want to learn to live on purpose with focus on an achievable goal. I believe that you and Vince are incredible teachers because you are walking your talk and that inspires me. I am 44 years young and am more determined than ever to break through self doubts and old self defeating patterns which have kept me stuck on the 10 pound up and down roller coaster for 15 years. I believe that this program will first and foremost build my self respect. It will strengthen my focus and create enthusiasm to break the frustrating cycles. I am already imagining myself living a life looking as fit as Flavia. It has got to start with believing in myself.

So here is my specific goal: I WILL go from my present 24% body fat to 18% body fat in 6 months with this program. I am going to look like the before and after pictures on your site, sculpted muscles and sculpted self image. My Mom always tells me, ” Linda, FEEL IT, BE IT, DO IT!” This program and all the bonuses especially your new Extreme Fat Loss Diet are going to ROCK my inner and outer world Joel. I will finish on the 2 most powerful words on this planet that these incredible programs are going to activate:

************************I CAN!!!!*************************

:)))))))))))

One day my son told me he wanted a big fat belly like his dad, I almost cried. I told him that I wanted a nice flat belly like his. I am determined to set an example for my family and for me. I need to lose 80lbs to get to a healthy weight. I know I need a combination of exercise and nutrition to achieve this goal and I believe this combination would assist me in achieving this weight loss goal. I want to be an example that others can be proud of and be inspired by.

WOW, reading over all these entries is amazing!!

Honestly, I was going to say how much I need this program, how it will help me shed the last few pounds and build the muscle I need and the endurance to compete in Ironman 2011… I was going to tell you that I’m a 42 year old mom of two and I’ve only been working out for about 10 years, so still relatively new to fitness, how I’ve completed a triathlon, marathon, bodybuilding show (placing 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, respectively) and that I love fitness and have made it my life. How I’m a personal trainer, and yet have a hard time finding the time for ME…. I was going to explain that I needed this program to help me focus on MY goals and dreams as I help others reach their’s. BUT in reading these posts, I can not with integrity say that I need this more then anyone here. There are so many people that would benefit from this program… so, I’m not asking for it, or fighting for it… I am simply saying… Good Luck in figuring out who will get it, cuz I would hate to have your job in doing that!!!! You my friend have your work cut out for you!!! Truly these people are amazing!!!
Anxious to hear who wins!!

Hi, Joel! Although I am already losing inches from the Holiday Ed. of CYWT, I have an insanely slow metabolism, and it (and I) will benefit from an extra “jolt”. Your diet plan is wonderful, and I love the work-out sessions! (My early x-mas gift to myself was a weight bench–arrived last week. Now I’m tracking down weights, bars, dumbbells, etc.) My father died from being obese, I’ve been obese/overweight all my life, and WANT A CHANGE!!!! My cousin is killing herself through obesity. I am a widow with a young child (who is emulating my work-out program)–I need to be here for her, and to be a good influence on her attitudes and development, particularly in regards to diet and exercise. Thanks for reading this and considering me for the free dvd-pack. Have a great day!

Where do I start? Growing up, I had always been overweight even when I played basketball for my school in junior high and even part of high school. I continued to put on more and more pounds through college and then when I hit the work force (the real world). I had no idea what I really weighed and just told myself what I thought I weighed and that I was happy with myself (which I wasn’t but didn’t know that at the time). People can have a sick sense of humor or even better a real sense of just being stupid and go off on first impressions (which happens 99% of the time, in my opinion). As a factor of being over weight, I was diagnosed with having type 2 diabetes about 4 years ago along with lymphodema in my right leg. Both of which I contribute to being over weight (may not be the entire reason but the weight sure didn’t help the situation). About a year and half ago, I decided that I wanted to take my life and my health back. I went to a doctor for help and guidance. What I discovered was something that just took my breath away. I weighed 411 pounds. I was shocked. I mean I knew I was overweight but had no idea that I was that much overweight. With the help of the doctor and the start of a new mind set, I under went the lap band procedure a month later. I had always said that I wouldn’t have any type of surgery like this unless it was a last resort. Well the last resort was here, I realized that I had slowly been killing myself with unhealthy choices through out the course of my life. It is now a year and half later since I had the surgery. I have lost over 100 pounds since then and (doctor’s goal) approximately another 100 to go. My personal goal is to get back to where I weighed when I played basketball but have something I didn’t have then,a lean body. My mindset has changed so much and I’m constantly reading different articles, books, watching specials on the subject. A gym is a must for me now and I watch closely what I put in my body (food and drinks). I may never be an action hero with the great body, but I can be the healthiest person that I can be. And being healthy means continuing to do what I have been doing for the past year and half every day there after. Day by day, hour by hour and minute by minute, I can make the changes which I had so desperately needed. With the information you are giving away, I know I can continue on my road to success with guidence from some of the best (if not the best) resources of information in the country.

Hi Joel,
I am a physician with a personal interest in fitness. I am interested in motivating my patients to improve their body composition, which is one of the biggest challenges in my practice. I am a firm believer in leading by example. I have never been able to bring my bodyfat % below 16%, no matter what method of dieting or exercising (have even used kettlebells!). Beginning to lose hope. I want to get ripped! I need this package to complete my own transformation, as well as to motivate my patients with conviction and by example. Help me Joel, and you’ll be helping many others as well!

I know what it’s like to be out of shape and in poor health. In December of 1995, I was driving to work and lost my vision…That’s right, I couldn’t see and it was morning rush hour on one of the busiest streets in town! Frightened doesn’t begin to describe how I felt…Scared s**tless would be a much better fit.

Just a few hours later, I’m in my doctors office and he’s telling me I have Type II Diabetes and shouldn’t even be able to walk much less drive. My blood sugar was a staggering 796! That’s almost twice the reading to put you into a diabetic coma. The doctor immediately started me on some pretty serious dosages of diabetic medications by mouth and through injection of insulin.

It wasn’t long before the side effects of the medications kicked in, the weight gain started, and well…I was a staggering 389 lbs. I had gained over 160 lbs, and lost all of my self esteem.

I looked like I had no respect for myself… like all I did was sit around and pig out… like I didn’t care at all about my health or my physical appearance… but I DID care…

It took a trip to the hospital and a dramatic realization that I may not be around to see my son grow up to trigger the final breakdown…

I was eventually able to get my weight down to 250 lbs. but have struggled to keep it under control and have been unable to shape my body in a manner that appears healthy, athletic, and ultimately attractive to women.

I believe this will finally bring me to the next level!

I am 61 years old and my husband is 65. We have 4 wonderful grandchildren and realize we need to take control of our health to be around to watch the kids grow up. After working with your program I have lost inches – so many that my old slacks from many years ago are coming out of the closet. It feels wonderful and I am thinking of asking Santa for a weight set so I can continue my progress at home. We are planning on taking a camping trip for a month or 2 in March and your DVD / coaching would certainly be very helpful … we can take it all on the road and not fall out of the good habits we are developing. I’d love to win this, thanks .

Joel,
I am 54 years old and watching all my pals lose interest in life. They are getting fat, lazy and just plain giving up. I am not in horrible shape and am ready to start to be great. I am hoping to be an inspiration to the regular guys to make them want to be extraordinary guys. My goal is to enter a competition this next October and thank you in November for the help. I will of course keep you posted on the progress. This would also be an inspiration to your “older” fans to see that it can and should be done. Thanks in advance….. Jim

At 64 years old with a 6’5″ body I am in good health and feel good. However, when I look in the mirror I see an over weight and out of shape body instead of the athletic one I had most of my life. My friends and family tell me that at my age I should not worry about it. I disagree and am finally mad enough to do what I have to to get back the body I once had. Between your eating program and Vince’s workouts I will have that I will have the body I once had and let my friends eat their hearts out. I know it will take hard work, but I am ready.
