When your idea of getting in shape means losing a few pounds,
feeling better, stronger or simply to have more energy to do the
things you enjoy, I can help!.....and I'll get you started for FREE!

My name is Chris Nerat, as a fitness professional with over 23
years experience; I've helped countless numbers of men, women,
and seniors lose weight, burn fat, and gain functional strength
while developing balance, flexibility, and coordination.

What's my secret? In truth, I don't have one. What I do have, and
what I am about to share with you is the knowledge I have gained
in my 23 years of teaching beginners how to exercise.

The concept is simple--Use functional strength exercises, start with the basics, and change
your workout routine on a regular basis.

As simple as that sounds, there is of course a lot more to it, which is why you are here.

I am going to show you which exercises to start with, how to do them correctly, and how
to modify your programs for continued success.

Let's get started!

This is where I explain what Functional Strength Exercises are,
why they are better to start with, and answer other questions
frequently asked by beginners.

Step 3

If a picture is worth a thousand words then video speaks volumes!
When it comes to learning a physical movement, nothing
compares to "seeing" how it is done.

That being said, I have included a series of video clips showing
how to perform 6 beginner level exercises for you to practice.

These are the exact same exercises I teach beginner clients
everyday and will help you to develop a solid basic routine.

Congratulations! - You have just completed Strength Training 101

Now, assuming you've read my Free Guide, you know the importance of changing your program to keep things
challenging; so here's another tip.

Adding cardio to your strength program is an excellent way to increase the amount of calories burned, resulting
in a higher percentage of fat loss -- Here's how it's done.

Once you're comfortable with your routine, (usually 3-weeks) start adding a short cardio session before each two
exercises. For example, begin your workout with 3-minutes of cardio (stationary bike, jump rope, treadmill, etc.)
then move on and perform the first two strength exercises in your program.

Do the exercises back-to-back, (i.e. Air Squats, Push-ups, Air Squats, Push-ups) with no rest between. Continue
on, adding a cardio bout before each two exercises and try not to rest until all exercises have been completed.

This type of exercise program will prove to be very challenging, but the rewards are well worth the effort!

Okay, let's move on to the last and final step. This is the step that will seperate those of you looking to meet a short term goal from those wanting to Get Fit and Stay Fit!

Remember, the key to continuous results is in your ability to make changes to your routine.
While adding cardio is a way to change how your program is performed; it is just as important
that you vary the exercises themselves.

Changing the exercises not only places different demands on your muscles thereby making your
workouts more effective, it also prevents boredom.

Since boredom and lack of results are two of the main problems facing beginners, it makes sense
that the more exercises you have to choose from, the better your chances are for success.

Why Fit-n-Functional is your best choice

The problem with other exercise videos:

Most fitness videos on the market take the ‘follow me, look like me’ approach to exercise, where the idea is to follow along with the instructor through a pre-defined workout--the instructor sets the pace, chooses the exercises etc.

While this method seems to be the norm, many beginners or less experienced people generally have a hard time keeping up due to their unfamiliarity with the exercises. This not only becomes frustrating but can also lead to poor results or injury. Furthermore, fitness videos that take this approach are a one shot deal--you do it once and repeat the same workout over and over.

This not only leads to boredom, it lacks longevity as well. Meaning, in order for you to experience long term results, you must have the ability to change your workout and change it often--most exercise videos simply do not give the user that option.

The Fit-n-Functional Difference:

Fit-n-Functional Basics and Beyond, is not a typical exercise video, it is a strength training instructional video. The difference being, rather than having you follow me through a series of exercises (which you most likely are not familiar with) I teach you how to perform over 30 different exercises, which can then be used to create a dozen or more unique workouts--more than you can use in a year!

This not only solves the ‘one shot deal’ problem of being stuck doing the same routine over and over, the knowledge you gain throughout this video will enable you to create your own workouts, which you can change as often as you like. This not only prevents boredom but also helps to ensure continued results.

Furthermore, my DVD is designed to accommodate users of all levels--you learn at your own pace. The exercises feature clear demonstrations in both slow motion and regular speed, along with verbal descriptions for even better understanding. Again, since there is no set tempo to follow, you can take your time and learn at a pace that is comfortable for you.

Another advantage of the Fit-n-Functional program is in the variety of equipment. Throughout the course of this video, you will learn how to use free-weights, body-weight, and cable machines--3 of the most common forms of exercise used in developing functional strength. Therefore, whether you are at home or in the gym, you will feel confident using whatever equipment is available.

Finally, this one video teaches you the exercises and skills necessary to create and change your routines every month for entire year! That's an amazing value!

 
Here is what Fitness Expert Scott York, had to say:

"simply amazing"           "a must have"
 

"As a fitness professional with 25 years of experience I was glad to
have the opportunity to view this DVD ("Fit-n-Functional") by
Chris Nerat.

It's simply amazing.

The easy to perform well thought out exercises, the knowledge that
Chris  shares and the everyday life examples of how this DVD will
keep you fit and functional in today's world is a must have.

There are a great variety of exercises shown from multiple angles
which makes the DVD visually stimulating as well as easy to
understand and follow along with. If your goal is to become stronger,
fitter and more functional then this is the DVD for you!

The information in this DVD will allow you to perform your favorite
activities (golf, gardening, hiking, swimming, playing with your kids)
longer and with more energy than you previously had--Highly Rated!"

When it comes to getting in shape there is no better type of exercises for
getting the job done than functional strength exercises.

While there are many exercises that fall into the "functional strength"
category, my DVD focuses on body-weight, free-weights, and cable
machines--3 of the most popular and most effective forms of exercises for
developing strength, balance, flexibility, and coordination.

You will discover which exercises are best to start with, how to do them
correctly and why you should be doing them. You will also learn how to
modify them for continued results as you become stronger, fitter,
and more confident.

"features real people and a realistic workout"

 


"Super all around strength video!

Instead of using petite models or young men hoisting massive weights,
this video features real people and a realistic workout. An excellent
choice for someone starting into resistance training.

I particularly liked the segments where he shows how strength training
can translate to everyday life activities. Mr. Nerat's style is common
-sense and low key, not at all intimidating, and I think this DVD is a
great value for the money! I would highly recommend this DVD!"

"great for young and old, novice or advanced"

 


"This is the exercise DVD for everyone! I really liked how the exercises

were adaptable to any fitness level. This is great for young and old,
novice or advanced. Mr Nerat is obviously very knowledgable and his
no-nonsese methods of teaching are clear and precise. Exercises are
clearly explained and nicely demostrated.

"easy to understand, easy to use"
 


"While this instructional DVD is the perfect tool for a beginner it could
also be used to vary or improve an established exercise regime. Chris
demonstrates and clearly verbalizes the proper way to perform each
exercise, explains the benefits achieved by each one and why it is
necessary to do them correctly. I highly recommend this easy to
understand, easy to use instructional video."
