Course Description

Have you started an exercise routine with excitement only to give up 5 days later?

Does it feel like the world around you is designed to keep you from getting fit?

Do you ever wonder about those people who get out to exercise 30+ minutes every day?

If yes, then this class is designed for you.

Hundreds of people young and old have learned the Science of Exercise from LifeDojo; it's time for you to find out what all the fuss is about.

Based directly on up-to-the-minute behavior science research from leading thinkers at Harvard, Stanford, MIT, Princeton, UPENN and others, every minute of Fit for Life is designed to inspire, motivate, and result in changing your behavior!

Imagine it. Every day you find the time to exercise. You are motivated; even excited to get your workout gear on and get out the door. You sleep soundly, feel happier, focus better and think clearer. No more guilt; no more failed new years resolutions. You have cracked the code; you are fit for life.

In this course, you will learn:

1. The incredible benefits of exercise; hint: you will be shocked at how important it is!

2. The history of exercise. How humans used to exercise 2+ hours a day, and why today's modern life makes it so difficult to get fit.

3. The six essential steps you need to take to succeed in living a permanent enjoyable exercise lifestyle. No more fads, gimmicks, or trends. Just proven methods that work.

Now comes the best part: Our entire class is offered in a fun, whiteboard-style story, that will have you laughing, learning, and connecting more than any other class you've taken!

So don't put-off your future one more day. For the cost of one personal training session, one new gym gadget you see on TV, or one month at your local gym, you can learn everything you need to know to succeed. Join the class today!

Small things does matter. Very descriptive and helpful lectures. Every thing in interesting animated videos. Good quality production if not the best. Will revisit the course once after following the routine for few days for further feedback. Thank you Chris.

By Shameer Mohammed on 7/10/2014

No words to describe. Really enjoyed the sessions. I love the "History of Exercise" section. Overall, Chris has done a fanta-bulous job to keep us attentive all the time by incorporating animation into the sessions. Worth every penny you spend on this course. Highly recommended to everyone who wants their motivation back.

I found this course to be very easy to understand and excerices were very reasonable. It's been presented in a great way, I wish they taught this way at school. Definately go for it!

By Raynor Van Der Merwe on 9/6/2013

I consider myself a fit individual with a variety of outdoor activities which I take part in. This course impressed me though! I especially love the reasons and motivation (and scary facts about not exercising) to exercise. It makes the daily effort seem less of a grind and more of a happy lifestyle. The tips and guidelines are more than useful and should fit everyone's lives in some form or another.

By Gajanan Chandgadkar on 8/17/2013

As saying goes, the concept of Health is fundamental to Life and leads to the creation of Wealth. And how you can get good health is by EXERCISE. This course helps to understand the importance of exercise and plan to achieve the same. This course gives the facts and scientific research on exercise/physical activity. I recommend this course everyone who wants to be health and happy.

By Jeff Buford on 8/16/2013

This provided great information, but didn't preach requirements to exercise. I would have liked additional 'average' data or a location to get 'goal' data as a starting point. Overall, excellent intro type course.

By Shashi Kumar on 8/11/2013

Very engaging, informative, well planned and creative way to present a course. The author is proving real VALUE with this course. Worth every penny. Thanks to Chris Cutter, Shashi.

By Camille Freeman on 8/9/2013

I enjoyed this course - it was fun to watch and easy to digest. The six steps are clear and easy to implement, and I enjoyed the friendly and accessible approach. It wasn't stuffy or preachy at all. Highly recommend.

By Caryn Burton on 8/8/2013

I'm a complete couch potato, but Chris's course gave me some solid reasons to start moving again, and not just some "lose 10 pounds is as many days" nonsense. The short lectures are fun to watch, but also give clear steps help you to start with a plan to exercise, and, hopefully, keep on going.
