inerTRAIN Partners with RESET Bootcamp
January 16th – February 20th
First webcast: Wednesday, January 11th at 8:00 P.M. CST
Are you looking to trim those holiday pounds or do you want to lose some nagging fat that has been slowly building up? Do you ever wish your body had a RESET button?
inerTRAIN is working with Chris Vaisnoras, Certified Healthy for Life Team Leader & Certified Nutrition Advisor, to promote an easy approach to get your body back on track through balanced nutrition and exercise. Throughout the RESET Bootcamp, Chris will teach you what you need to know to shed those pounds and keep them off permanently.
Past results speak for themselves: Most people lose 4-5 lbs in just the first 5 days and 5-15 lbs during the 5-week bootcamp. Some people have gone on to lose 40-90 lbs throughout the rest of the year applying what they learned.
“I have lost over 30 pounds and now have more energy!” - Mike D.
“I have shed over 90lbs in the last 12 months following the RESET program.” - Jen N.
Added motivation: This year there will be an option to enter a contest to win up to $1,000. The top 3 men and top 3 women with the greatest body transformation will win top prizes of $1000, $500, and $250.
Cost: $129 to get started (includes 5-day RESET kit, blender bottle, and 4 weeks of online nutritional training, plus tax/shipping); additional options available for continued results.
Top 5 Reasons to sign up for the RESET BOOT CAMP:
1. Lose up to 4-5 lbs in the first 5 days…and 10-15 lbs by the end of the 5th week.
2. Lose the cravings for sweets and refined carbohydrates.
3. Increase your energy and immune system.
4. Save money on your grocery bills with USANA’s Meal Replacement Shakes and Snack Bars.
5. Receive coaching from Chris Vaisnoras on nutrition, fitness, stress reduction, overcoming emotional eating, increasing your energy naturally, and making your health a priority, a lifestyle, and FUN!

inerTRAIN LAUNCHES CEO CHALLENGE WITH THE ILLINOIS TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATION
Executives Compete to Be Named to the “fit40 under 40”
 (Chicago, IL) – October 24, 2011 – inerTRAIN and the Illinois Technology Association (ITA) are proud to announce the launch of their most recent collaborative project, the CEO Challenge. Top executives of ITA member companies will compete to be included in the “fit40 under 40” list. The CEO Challenge will have ITA member companies’ top executives competing against each other for a 3-month period, starting Nov. 1, 2011 and concluding Jan. 31, 2012. Those competing will work with their inerTRAIN personal trainer to improve their overall health and fitness level and work toward any personal fitness goals they might have.
“The CEO Challenge will help to kick start health and wellness among the ITA member company’s top executives and employees,” said Fred Hoch, ITA President.
The competition will be judged based upon the participants’ fitAGE™, inerTRAIN’s comprehensive proprietary fitness evaluation, measured within the first week of the challenge period and then again during the last week. At the end of the three months, the executive with the greatest improvement in fitAGE will be declared the CEO Challenge winner. The winner and his or her company will receive a wellness mini-series for the company’s employees, among other prizes. All CEOs whose fitAGE is 40 or less at the end of the contest period will be named to the elite “fit40 under 40” list.
“inerTRAIN is excited to continue to offer our services to the ITA and launch the CEO Challenge. We will soon find out who the fittest CEO in the ITA is…besides me, of course,” said Jeff Marinucci, President and CEO of inerTRAIN.
