HIGH INTENSITY STRENGTH TRAINING:
MORE AEROBIC THAN "AEROBICS"
by Greg Anderson
The most common question asked by our new personal training clients at Ideal Exercise
is: "Where are the treadmills and stationary bicycles?". Most have never heard that
great benefits to the cardiovascular system, commonly referred to as "aerobic fitness",
can be had through a program of high-
Although (as I shall explain) the statement that high-

A great deal of the misunderstanding of the function of the cardiovascular system
arises from the use of the word "aerobics" to describe a particular exercise protocol.
The term aerobic denotes a metabolic pathway within the body which yields energy
through the oxidation of fat and carbohydrate. Literally, aerobic means: "with oxygen".
Most of us have been taught that to exercise aerobically is to perform long duration
steady-
Many bodybuilders that I have spoken to believe that the inclusion of some type of
"aerobic" activity in their program is necessary to achieve optimum leanness. I point
out to them that from a bodybuilding standpoint, the issues at hand are both the
amount of fat that you don't have and the amount of muscle that you do. Since it
is very easy to overtrain by including too many exercises or too much additional
activity, it seems that any slight fat loss achieved through steady state activity
could be more than offset by compromising the ability to build (or even maintain)
muscle as a result of overtraining. In fact, research on fat loss performed by Ellington
Darden Ph.D. (and duplicated by Ideal Exercise) showed best results with the combination
of high-

Why not aerobics...?
Don't I need some form of aerobics to insure good health?
What about my heart?
What about endurance? Won't my athletic performance suffer if I don't do aerobics?
Aerobics... Just Say No!

P. S. One last thing, it's important. I know even with this unbelievably low price and "can't lose" offer you may still be skeptical. And I totally understand. So below are testimonials from people who have used my system. By the way... these are "for real" testimonials.

Bill came into my life when I was literally praying for a miracle. I was at a breaking point; over weight, overwhelmed, over committed, and completely lost. I had forgotten who I was as a person; I was desperate for a change. I needed someone to encourage me and most importantly, to believe in me. I had tried and tried to lose weight with minimal results, but I knew in my heart there was a way, I just needed guidance from someone who understood how to help me.
My miracle came in the form of Bill Sahli. The timing was perfect! He began coaching
me weekly via phone and e-

Today with Bill's help I am happy to say that I was flat out wrong. I am progressing by leaps and bounds in strength and new muscle and loving it. Bill is a true master coach and a gentleman!”

“This book covers all the bases and then some!”
“After reading a few of Bill's earlier books,
RU Serious-
both of which are of tremendous value... I knew I was in for a treat when I ordered Bill's latest book,
Mind Becomes Mass: Beyond Time-
When I received the book, I poured a cup of tea and thought I would read through
it in a few hours (which is usually the norm for me when I order something new).
Was I ever in for a surprise when I saw the table of contents (and took a quick look
through the book)! I knew right away this one certainly wasn't going to be read and
absorbed in just 1 or 2 sittings.
Rather than being your typical bodybuilding book with a few routines for the reader
to follow... Bill starts out by going into great detail about our most powerful and
important muscle... “The Mind.”
Bill explains how and why we are stronger and capable of so much more than most of us believe, along with the tools to learn how to tap into ourselves and achieve our best (not only with our training, but most importantly, with our everyday lives)!
The book also goes into great detail on the effects of stress and how it effects our health. Also the role of our own genetics. Bill explains, in easy to understand plain English, why we should critically analyze what we are doing and why we should open and use our minds... and not follow the herd and not be emotionally tied ...
This book covers all of the bases, and then some! From a Q and A section, To a precise
explanation on what the most productive movements are and how to properly perform
the movements in the safest manner possible. From a beginner workout, right through
to the most advanced ... routines with every alternative and ... technique available
to stimulate even further progress.
Bill also goes into great detail on diet, regardless of whether your goal is to lose body fat, or gain bodyweight, Bill explains the how's and why's and even goes into detail about how to adjust your diet to your own metabolism.
I've only scratched the surface here, and am still in the process of reading and
absorbing everything in this greatly informative book that Bill has written... through
his decades of experience with his own training and in working with others.
Bill is truly a gifted and highly intelligent man and is always giving his time to
help others achieve their own personal goals.
I can't recommend this book enough.
It is worth far more than it's price.
Jon Paris”

Last night I had the absolute pleasure of reading Bill's latest gem... Mind Becomes Mass...
"You are a quality human being, a rare trait in this day and age, which is a far better quality than any ....
knowledge you will ever possess or dispense!”
RE: Mind Becomes Mass: Beyond Time-
GEM!!!
Last night I had the absolute pleasure of reading Bill's latest gem... Mind Becomes
Mass... Beyond Time-
After an in depth discussion on how ones
outlook and focus shapes everything, and how one can gain mastery over it to better
their lives and training (in and out of the gym), Bill moved onto workout advice.
No Bulgarian hidden secrets mumbo-
If you enjoyed Mike Mentzer's Heavy
Duty II: Mind & Body, then you will absolutely adore Bill's Mind Becomes Mass. It
is complimentary of Mike's works, and I couldn't think of a better person to do business
with, as Bill is 100% sincere and genuine in his enthusiasm to help others achieve
their training goals. I personally want to thank Bill for the time and effort he
put into this work of art, which I cherish and will no doubt relate back too time
and time again over the coming years/decades on my quest to reach my genetic potential."
“Closing in on 33 years ... I get comfort and grounding from your column... your

“Hi Bill,
... I'm 78 years old, have had two heart attacks, have asthma and emphysema along with muscle atrophy.
I... became interested in your Contraction Vacuum Burns because of my waist measurement.
I had reservations as to how much energy it would take to perform the exercise. You assured me that I could do this so I decided to try the program. This is to let you know the first week's results.
I started on New Years 2010...
Friday, January 1st. I weighted 159.6 and had a waist measurement of 45".
Friday, January 8th (after only 7 days on the program)...weight 157.6 lost 2 lbs. Waist 43" lost 2 inches.
As you said, the more I do the easier it will become.
Thank you Bill, without your encouragement I would have not even tried. I will now be ordering your Mind Becomes Mass Program.

PS. A second thought, I bet this would be a great program for women who are within weight and height measurements but do need waist, oblique and stomach tightening.
PSS. Bill, I forgot to mention that I have compression fracture in discs 4-

Bill, I just finished listening to High Intensity Mindset. PowerrrrFULL. GREAT JOB!!! Takes me back to 1967 when I was first introduced to PMA and followed it intensely. I'm still a believer. People could not understand it, but my life did change and lives will change if you BELIEVE. My favorite quote was then, and is now, what the mind can conceive and believe, the mind will achieve.
I read Mind Becomes Mass earlier and will read it again but will not have uninterrupted time to listen until tomorrow. At that time I will be ready for whatever you design. (Bill decided to move forward into my Elite Inner Circle One on One Coaching)
Thanks again for all you have done for me.

“…Hi Bill, I appreciate the help. And also your willingness to do so for people.
One of the things I noticed on the ph website is when I asked questions, you answered
them. You were very thorough. You did point me to your website, but you didn't
say, Oh I talk about that in the book, you'll have to go to my website and purchase
it. Jxxxxxxxxx never really answered my questions, just sent me to his book. Dxxxxxx
too wanted me to go to his online coaching. Its like what the heck. I'm not advocating
taking advantage of anyones time and information, but Its always on the question
of diet, everyone acts like its a secret-
You've never acted did that. However when the direction pointed that we'd have to go into depth, I saw the fairness and logic to purchasing your books/coaching and time. But you have never said no, I can't answer your questions. And have given me more than abundance…. I really value that, as I'm sure others have as well.” – A Ron

“Good gracious, you weren’t kidding... It seemed to make me stronger”
Good gracious, you weren't kidding! This exercise is amazing... yet my reps went up ...to 12 in this session! Needless to say, 12 (repetitions) was a shock when I was going for 3.
I'm literally at the point where I need to go to the sporting goods store to buy more weights.
I ask, is there any better shopping trip in the world than that?
I pushed one session
back.... it seemed to make me stronger!
Thank you once again. I'm having a great time.
Hope you're doing well!

“... simplicity is one of the keys to a fulfilling and balanced life.”
“I have had the blessing of knowing and training with Bill for 20 plus years, what a blast. In most aspects of life we are taught more is better yet as we come to our own truths from within we realize simplicity is one of the keys to a fulfilling and balanced life. As a structural (massage) therapist for 12 years I see the physical effects of stress daily, the body requires time to heal not only from the training itself but from our daily routines as well. Bill has formatted a precise, extremely effective training routine explaining in detail the scientific basis for less is healthier. What you see on these pages is exactly the same routine and philosophy that we have used for years. Thank you my friend!”

I still incorporate Bill's principles in my workouts and have reduced the risk of injury and have maintained a shape and lifestyle that I am very proud to possess.

___________________________________________________________________________“Hi Bill,
I just purchased your books RU Serious and High Intensity Powerbuilding on Thursday.
There’s a lot of good info and I’m glad I found them, I need to get back on track.
I’m not serious bodybuilder or powerlifter. Just an average Joe who workouts out
in his basement but I have had some decent size. I had a long layoff due to injury
...
In the past I got off track and did workouts that didn’t work, you know, the
various crap in the magazines. But to be honest the majority of my size came from
workouts very similar to the one in you RU Serious book. So I’m going to start with
that. Actually, I took this past week off so I started again today and I just got
done with workout #1 from the book, though I’m not looking forward to legs in a few
days . It felt great to get back to that.
I’m really looking forward to starting
the Powerbuilding workout but at this point I thought it might be better to start
with the RU Serious workout.
Well I just wanted to say hi and thanks for the great
books.” -
