Can you lose weight without exercising? Yes. However, that said, the benefits of including exercise in your weight loss or maintenance efforts are enormous. But I suspect you already know that. What I hear from people is how do I get motivated to exercise? Or what are some quick, easy ways to burn calories when I don’t have time for exercise? Or how much exercise is enough? You can find the answer to questions like these and so much more at the Global Health and Fitness (GHF) website.
At this site you’ll find a wealth of information and services provided by 34 nutrition, fitness, and medical experts. I’ve been a member of the Global Health and Fitness site for a while but hadn’t made the time to explore all the membership benefits till today. Wow! I’m impressed.
Although I have a full membership, I learned I could have accessed a surprising amount with just a trial membership. There are written reports, articles, ebooks, and video demonstrations to answer just about any question you might have with respect to exercise and fitness. From cardio workouts to stretching and flexing exercises to weight lifting, the tips and advice are designed to help anyone from beginning exercisers to serious body builders.
This exercise information alone would be a tremendous value for the price of membership (especially trial membership) but there is so much more! You will also find in depth information about nutrition, weight loss, and motivation for exercise and diet.
Here’s just a sample of what you have access to with a trial membership:
1. A Strength Training Program that includes a training book with expert advice, a customized strength-training program, and a multitude of instructional videos to demonstrate more than 130 strength-training exercises.
2. A Weight Management Program and nutrition information that includes a detailed weight management book and healthy recipes.
3. Access to a sample version of easy-to-use fitness tracking software (full version available free with a full membership – $32.95 retail value)
4. Fitness blogs (online journals) – In this part of the website you can review the daily diet and exercise routines of GHF members as well as see the feedback given by experts.
5. If you like contests, there is a 12-Week Fitness Challenge.
6. 20 high quality exercise classes provided with online video for everything from yoga to pilates, abs, kickboxing, core training, pre- and post-natal exercise routines.
7. You can download seminars to listen to at your convenience with your iPod or other mp3 player. You’ll find audios for enhancing your motivation for weight loss and exercise, strategies to change your body and your life from within, tips on how to increase your energy, how to identify and eliminate “limiting” beliefs, how to conquer stubborn cellulite and annoying cravings, and more!
Trial membership is only $9.95 for a whole month! That’s a bargain for all you get. An additional and unique feature of this site is having access to more than 1,000 success stories for inspiration and motivation! Go ahead and check it out today! You can actually explore a fair amount, watch a video about the site, and get a free instructional ebook without any cost whatsoever.
If you like what you find and want to consider more than just the trial membership here’s a sample of the added value you will have:
1. Unlimited PERSONAL fitness consulting from ANY GHF expert with a guaranteed 24-hour response (by email)! This is extraordinary value for less than the cost of a dinner for two dining out (only about $20.00 a month for full membership)! The experts include nutritionists, dieticians, personal fitness trainers, doctors, success coaches, and more!
2. The GHF Customized Diet Plan that is a comprehensive nutritional
program personally customized for YOU!
3. The full retail version of the exercise and nutrition
tracking software, Protrack 2005 (value of $32.95)
4. Twenty-eight FREE fitness products worth more than $500!
5. Access to a personal trainer who can check in with you as often as you like to make sure that you stay motivated,
achieve great results, and get all the help you need!
6. Fitness blogs where the experts analyze your routine and offer
suggestions for improvement. This provides you with guidance and motivation for the best possible results.

Although there are many great features and benefits to this health and fitness membership site, it is not for everyone. If you are put off by pictures and videos of slim, physically fit people, it may not be for you! (I admit, I have to let go of the obvious truth that I’m never going to look like these people at my age!) Or maybe you prefer to keep your exercise routine simple.
If you would prefer to have access to simple exercise tips along with a variety of basic diet plans and lots of interaction and support from other dieters, I would encourage you to take a look at Anne Collins Weight Loss Program. (Read my review here.) On the other hand, if your primary goal is to learn how to burn fat in as short a time as possible with healthy eating and exercise without belonging to a membership site, take a look at Tom Venuto’s book, Burn the Fat. (Tom Venuto is one of the expert advisors for the Global Health and Fitness Site.)
So, if you need a little more information and support to be successful with your weight loss efforts, maybe one of these recommendations will be right for you! Take a moment and check them out today.
