Hello Connie,
I have been following you for SOME time and I really think that you should consider Teresa Tapp! Movement really does matter and T-Tapp is fascia fitness that REALLY makes a difference, in my experience. Hoe Downs are known to burn 62-85 points of blood sugar after just one 3-minute move that we offer for FREE!
Check out this testimonial: http://empoweredsustenance.com/t-tapp/
T-Tapp is one of those programs that is effective no matter what life throws at you and can help anyone going through hormonal concerns. I personally have gone from an 18 to a 4 with T-Tapp and consistency was the only key!
The T-Tapp Method of muscle activation increases mind-to-muscle nerve transmission to target areas of concern. If you think about it, without specifically activating muscle groups on an area of your body, you cannot really target/trim or lose weight in those trouble zones. T-Tapp gets beyond that problem by “waking up” the muscle groups and trouble zones your brain is disconnected from to help you achieve muscle awareness and twitch so that you can burn fat in your “hard to reach” places.
Honestly, T-Tapp is so much more than a workout that burns calories and fat, it’s also a left/right brain, mind/body workout that can help keep you stay sharp! It helps your body rebuild fitness and function from the inside out –metabolism, lymphatic system, Krebs cycle (these are bio-mechanics which enable your body to process carbohydrates better without gaining weight). It also helps your body improve biochemistry and brain health (hormones, mental clarity and mood). A big reason why T-Tapp is SO effective is because it rebuilds your body’s resting rate of glucose utilization, which is a key factor in maintaining a healthy body that looks and feels better – especially when you are experiencing hormonal issues.
Even better, you never have to keep adding reps or time to your workouts to continue seeing results. T-Tapp’s progressive sequence of mindful movement will continue to challenge you and as long as you continue to do the workout to your best ability. Your body will never become “used to” T-Tapp because your brain-to-body/ mind-to-muscle connections become stronger the longer you consistently do the program. So, the workout becomes more challenging and even more aerobic over time!
This is my favorite quote about T-Tapp:
“Exercise is important in heart health; both aerobic and resistance training are important. My favorite is T-Tapp developed by my dear friend, Teresa Tapp. It’s the ultimate multi-tasking exercise. Teresa is the model of fitness and sweetness as she coaches you through a 15-Minute Workout. Teresa has longer programs but promises that you can lose weight and inches and drop your glucose, blood pressure and cholesterol with only 15 minutes a day. You can even Try Before You Buy to check out if it’s something you can feel good about doing.”
– Dr. Carolyn Dean, M.D, N.D.
Naturopath, Herbalist, Acupuncturist, Nutritionist
Author of IBS for Dummies, The Hormone Cure (both featuring T-Tapp Workout) as well as Multiple other publications
I hope you’ll consider T-Tapp for the exercise portion of your Sugar World Summit!
