Want a Fit Marriage? Here’s Your Chance!

I am very excited today to announce the beginnings of a new project that has the potential to change many lives and impact many marriages in a positive way.

There will be many more details to follow about the overall project, known as Fit Marriage, but I want to give you a sneak peek today and then announce a special opportunity that you have to be part of this mission from the start!

What’s Fit Marriage?

Fit. Together. For Life.

Fit Marriage is a new business, website, podcast, product line and brand that I’m developing alongside Tony DiLorenzo of ONE Extraordinary Marriage.  While we’re both very passionate about both marriage enhancement and fitness, we each offer unique gifts that we are excited to bring together in a way that should offer a great deal of help to other busy couples and help them achieve improved  physical fitness and overall wellness.

Tony is a super-fit guy and a successful extreme endurance athlete (particularly in cycling, at least lately) who has a wealth of knowledge and encouragement to share.  On the other hand, my physical exploits have been much more average as I’ve struggled to find a fitness program and approach that fits my crazy life and keeps me motivated to reach my goals.

I’ve always had a passion for fitness, and I’ve spent much of my life learning about exercise and nutrition and trying out different approaches with varying degrees of success.  Tony flat out knows his stuff, and he’s lived a fit lifestyle his entire adult life.  As we started to combine “notes” and opinions about fitness (in the context of some marriage discussions), we realized that we had something incredibly valuable to share with the busy married couples of the world.

And so, Fit Marriage was born.

The First “FM” Program is Ready…We Think

Since FitMarriage.com won’t be live for a few more weeks, you may be wondering why we’re sharing this news today before our site is complete and prior to releasing the first episode of our podcast.  The simple answer is that the power is in the program!

Tony and I have spent the past several months working hard to develop the initial, core fitness program that we want to build Fit Marriage around.  Our primary goals were a program that got killer results while fitting within the demands of a super-busy marriage and family life.

Well, we’ve done it!  Here are the highlights of this yet-unnamed fitness program:

• EVERY workout is 30 minutes or less!
• EVERY workout can be done at home without the need to drive to, tolerate or pay for a gym!
• It provides 12 full weeks of workouts that are broken into three distinct phases to keep things interesting and effective.
• It combines a great variety of Core, Strength, Power Yoga and Cardio workouts.
• It includes a total of TEN full workouts (25-30 mins) plus two bonus 8-minute “No Excuses” workouts.
• The workouts are video-based so they’re easy to learn and follow along.
• It provides simple nutritional guidelines that you can actually follow in your daily life.
• And perhaps most importantly, this program was designed to be fun and effective for both Men and Women, and it is an awesome way for a busy couple to workout TOGETHER!

We are both in the middle of the program now and seeing awesome results.  Needless to say, we are excited.  However, there’s one thing that’s been missing so far…

We Need YOUR Input!

The main purpose of today’s post is to invite YOU to try out our new fitness program…for free!

While we think this program is great, the real test comes when other real-life, busy married folks use it and enjoy improved physical fitness, mental wellness and happy marriages.  And we hope you’ll join us to be one of the first to experience it for yourself.
