Testimonials"What a fantastic program! I've long been looking for a comprehensive, easy-to-understand, and easy-to-implement running injury prevention workout routine. Your 'Run Like a Deer Forever' program definitely fits the bill. I really enjoyed your simple, straight to the point writing style and was extremely pleased to find workouts designed for runners of all abilities. My lower back has been bothering me while running for the last year but after implementing your exercises, my back has never felt better!"I highly recommend 'Run Like a Deer Forever' and will be recommending your program to both my subscribers and website visitors. Thanks again," Jeff Ray Birmingham, AL www.TheRunningAdvisor.com "Hi Jerry, "I want to say THANK YOU! Thank you for writing your book, "How To Run Like A Deer Forever!" I faithfully followed your advise and did the exercises while training for the marathon! I am very happy to report that I successfully ran and finished my First Marathon! I ran it in 3 hours 59 minutes and 20 seconds! "It wasn't until mile 21 that I started feeling a bit of soreness in my right thigh muscle. At that point I knew it was mind over matter so I gave it all I had knowing that there was no way I was going to slow down, stop, or even quit! I mentally made my body relax and at mile 25 I suddenly felt NO PAIN so I ran even faster the last 1.2 mile. I am very happy and proud of myself as is my entire family! "I tried to send you the link for you to see my picture that was taken at the marathon, but it did not go through. I have a strange internet service provider that deletes attachments due to virus dangers or something. Anyway if you want to see my picture go to: brightroom.com then select that you want to see event pictures. Enter either the date of March 21, 2004 or the name: more marathon. Once the list is displayed select it and enter the Bib # of 3416, my last name: Kneuker, and photo id: 3416. You should then be able to see my pictures. (I'm in red). "Again, THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your book. I'm sharing it with my son and other family members who also want to run a marathon since I have inspired them! "Best regards," Marie Kneuker Bear, DE "Hi Jerry, "Yes I am doing much better since I started your program. I recently cut back on the exercises as I was spending over 1 hour every other day. I think i am going to just use the core exercises mostly every few days. The program is very helpful. I do the intermediate number of reps and sets except for the V- ups which I still can only do 3/15. I can now run 4-5 miles at a time. I was very deconditioned aerobically and had to build back up. I am still pretty slow but now that my mileage is coming back I should be able to get faster soon. " My knee range of motion is much better and it doesn't stiffen up on me nearly as much if I remember to do some squats, for instance before a long car trip, etc. "I would be happy to write a testimonial as I believe your program was a wonderful value for the great price you offered. (still $30?) It was the only thing that finally turned me around to being able to start running again. And I had tried MANY things! I particularly liked the explanation at the beginning of WHY the program was beneficial to the muscles and joints compared to weight lifting and the current vogue exercise regimes. I also loved the booklet with your detailed programs for the various levels and how to proceed from there. It was both very simple and very challenging. "I very much appreciated the feedback I was able to get directly from you via e-mail. The program was sent to me very promptly at a time when I was very anxious for help. "Let me know if there is a format for the testimonial or feel free to use excerpts of this letter as long as you don't change the wording. " Unfortunately I don't have any running pictures YET but hopefully soon I will be back to racing. "Keep up the good work, you will help many people!! "Gratefully yours," Paula Bossart Greensburg, PA "I already ordered your book and have been following the program. After just a few weeks I am noticing not as much pain in my knee joints and my hams and quads are getting stronger. Thanks!" Marc Leranger Las Vegas, NV "When I finished How to Run Like a Deer Forever the first thing I thought was 'Wow I wish I had had this book sooner'. Oh yeah there are other books about how to run injury free but I found them complicated and hard to read. I never felt I could put the information to practical use. But with How to Run Injury Free I got the info I needed quickly and in a user friendly format. I was able to incorporate Jerry's routine into my daily running regimen right away. Those nagging shin splints I had were gone inside of 2 weeks and gone for good. Look, at 225lbs I am not a petite runner. I put a lot of stress on my body just pounding the pavement. I am so glad to have found How to Run Injury Free to help keep me injury and pain free. Anyone who runs need this info." Dave Woynarowski, M.D. Anti-Aging Specialist Redding, PA "This is wonderful resource for any athlete, whether they're a runner or not. The exercises shown in How to Run Like a Deer Forever not only help you relieve your joint pain, but strengthen your muscles and connective tissue so they'll prevent any future occurence of that pain. I found this course extrememly valuable for my knees and ankles. Now my workouts are better and my recovery has improved dramatically. What Jerry has written is so simple, easy to use, and takes so little time to do, but it's value is enormous. Anyone serious about their progress as an athlete should not be without How to Run Injury Free." Ed Baran Portland, OR "Dear Jerry: Just wanted to touch base with you.....I bought your program, "how to run like a deer etc." probably 6 months ago. I signed up for my first full marathon coming up in Jan 05. I signed up for the Disney Marathon in Florida and i somehow stumbled on your website the day I was signing up to participate in the event. Jerry, I have never run in my life....I couldn't even run to the end of my driveway and decided to run a marathon. To boot, I was a smoker and I love to go out and drink socially - yeah a real party animal.... gotta love it..... Anyway, I've always been a gym rat, despite all my wonderful bad habits....weight lifting and being toned was normal for me. but since i never ran more than 5 steps, i knew i had to do something.....i also have a weak right knee and suffer frequent lumbar strains (i guess from excessive training, becoming exhausted and losing proper form) After ordering your program, I read all of the information, and was almost laughing and thinking to myself, you have to be kidding. [such simple exercises] what a joke....and this i paid money for? well after doing your beginners workout, jerry, i could not walk for 3 days, and every inch of me hurt.....the only thing i could do was laugh!!! I remember thinking, maybe jerry has something here....how can i be sore with such easy exercises (that weren't so easy by the way with the number of reps) Well, Jerry, my knee pain and back pain are a thing of the past.....i was able to quit smoking, and will barely finish a cocktail if i go out. I am stronger than i think i have ever been, and what's even crazier, is that I appear "shredded" bodybuilder's term for very defined.....people have come up to me in the gym and wanted to know what i was doing ....AMAZING! Oh, and of course.....the most important thing.....not only can i now run to the end of my driveway, I run for miles without gasping for breath, and free of knee or back pain..... Jerry, I have told many people about your program, and what it has done for me..... Thank you for all the positive changes that you helped to bring into my life..... Best wishes...." Katherine Bobotis Aventura, FL "Hi Jerry! I ordered your exercise package about 1 year ago, and at the time, I was extremely frustrated with my efforts to run again! I had been a sprinter in high school and college, and had done a lot of jogging in my twenties and early thirties, but through the years ( I am now in my mid-forties!) I had lost all aerobic or physical ability, and had gained at least 70 pounds from a relatively sedentary lifestyle. I was 6' 2" tall, 260 pounds and it seemed like every time I went to the doctor, he was prescribing a new drug to try to get my "numbers" back in line with where they were supposed to be. I had high blood pressure, extremely high Triglycerides, constant indigestion/reflux issues, Allergies, complications from two herniated discs, and any of a hundred other minor problems with my deteriorating health! I finally got fed up with what I felt was my body falling apart, and decided to DO something about it. At the beginning of Spring last year, I couldn't run three miles without being totally beat up and in pain. My back, knees and ankles were very sore and took three or four days to recover! But, I persevered, and I started doing your exercises! I was very slow and limited at first, but slowly got better and found that the minimal running that I was doing was hurting less and less! I was actually making progress! I stuck with it through the difficulty and pain, but the further I pushed, the better I felt. Somewhere around the end of summer last year, I noticed that I was not getting sore after running, and that I was gaining speed and endurance. I was ecstatic! I was also 50 pounds lighter, and planning my first serious race, a 20K trail run, and I was very excited to be able to run that far, that soon! I continued the training and to date have completed a 25K, a 50K, and in March, I ran 40 miles of a 50 mile race! (I know I could have finished the race, but due to some really HOT weather, I, and many others in the race were pulled because of time. I was only 20 minutes late to the 40 mile point, but I was actually feeling fine! Next time, I am GOING to finish!) I don't want to sound like a typical testimonial, because I realize that what I am doing and the distances I run are NOT typical, so I don't want to over-simplify it and say that all I had to do was follow your simple exercises! It took a great deal more than your exercises to get where I am, including regular chiropractic adjustments, a real mental commitment to a healthy lifestyle, and a new attitude about what is important to me! But, your exercises came along at exactly the point that I needed them. I couldn't have gotten past the pain to continue training without the strengthening and range of motion that the exercises have given me. And I am still improving today. I am anxious to lose ten more pounds, and have no doubt that I will accomplish that this summer! That will put me well below 200 pounds, and in better overall shape than I was 20 years ago! Sorry if I have rambled on with this email, but I thought it might be of value for you to hear my story. My running has allowed me to eliminate ALL of the medications that I was taking, with the only exception being a Niacin supplement that helps control a genetically-based high triglycerides problem, and it is very likely that I will be able to stop that soon as well! Your program will be a vital part of my training regimen for the rest of my life, and I thank you for the opportunity to tell my story! I hope that it can be used as an example of what a huge difference "core strength, and conditioning" can have on the average person! I am NOT a great runner, but I AM Running GREAT! Thanks again! Sincerely," Steve Hall Grapevine, TX "Hey there Jerry! "I just read and re-read your books, and they are really great! I am not a seasoned runner, I have been racing just 3 years, and really love it! "The reason I ordered your books is because I am a kind of "do it all the way, or forget it" kind of girl..... well, this came true in my running, and I got a little carried away. "I went from running 2 miles a day, to a great 10K, and I thought if I could handle that, than it would be no problem running 5-6 miles a day!!! YAHOO!!! I thought I would be in fighting form, lose a pesky 5 pounds and shape up my legs.....well, I have two words for you. SHIN SPLINTS. Ohhhhhh my. That is one of the worst pains you can have. I could barely walk. So, there went my super sessions of 5 miles a day. I was lucky to walk up and down my stairs with my three year old in my arms. "Out of desperation, I searched the internet for shin splint quick fixes as I was anxious to get back at it. I saw your book, and immediately ordered it, and have utilized all of your exercises, and they have helped me so much. It is hard for me to take a month off, as per your advice, but a week off was ok, and I have incorporated your plan of attack for injured runners. "Thanks for a great book, and I love your emails with tips for runners!" Christine Glover Granite Bay, CA |
