                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Chicago, IL (PRWEB) October 2, 2006 -- The man who developed the X2 Vest will reveal all the secrets of how you can lose weight, tone and more at the annual Club Industry Show, Health and Fitness Expo on October 4 &#8211; 7, 2006 held at Chicago&#8217;s McCormick Place, booth 953.



George Morrison, sports performance enhancement coach to professional athletes in the NFL, MLB and NBA, developed the unique X2 Vest, a weighted vest that can burn up to 70 percent more calories when you wear the X2 and add it to your normal activity.  Morrison is also a former U.S. Olympic Strength and Conditioning Coach.  

According to Morrison:  &#8220;Regardless of body shape or size, the X2 Vest is the definitive answer to weight loss, total body conditioning, improved strength and enhanced performance.&#8221; Morrison goes on to say, &#8220;I&#8217;ve always had a passion to help fine-tune the body whether it be for the athlete or someone who simply wants to get in better shape.  Plus, I would like to put an end to obesity. I wanted to help in someway, so I created the X2 Vest.&#8221;


One of the most recent news stories concerning the X2 Vest comes from Chicago where George Morrison and a top infertility specialist are credited with creating the unparalleled Fit and Fertile Program to help overweight infertile women get pregnant.  In March of this year, that program began with 17 overweight infertile women hoping to lose enough weight to improve their chances of getting pregnant. Six months later, six of those women are pregnant.  That&#8217;s an average of one pregnancy per month.

The X2 Vest is an adjustable weight vest that can easily be worn in the gym, outdoors, or just around the house. The X2 Vest works safely and effectively allowing the individual to add weight to their CORE (the mid-section of the body) in one-pound increments. Adding weight to your body requires more muscle fibers to be called into action, thus requiring more calories to be burned, which allows for muscle development and weight loss.  

The X2 Vest  .  .  . 

*  Can increase metabolic rate and burn up 70% more calories in same amount of time  
*  Can lose weight, build lean muscle, improve bone density all at the same time 
*  Can wear the X2 vest around the house or added to your exercise routine

The X2 Vest is the consumer version of the award-winning weighted vest known as the XVest, used by U.S. astronauts, firefighters, U.S. Olympians, sports teams including members of the NFL, MLB, NBA and other professional athletes. Chicago Bears 2000 NFL rookie of the Year, Brian Urlacher, is one of the many pro athletes to utilize the XVest in preseason training protocol. The Xvest was voted &#8220;Must Have Fitness Product&#8221; by Women&#8217;s Health &#38; Fitness Magazine and Shape Magazine. Voted Best Fitness Product 2005&#8221; by Muscle &#38; Fitness Magazine.  George Morrison is in the process of writing the soon-to-be released book on complete weight best training which will be available early next year.

While in Chicago for the Club Industry Show, Morrison will also kick-off the second group of the Fit and Fertile program in the Northwest suburbs.  To attend the Fit and Fertile Program on Tuesday evening October 5th or to interview George Morrison about any aspect related to the X2 Vest or his upcoming book, please contact Linda Blackman at 847-550-9937 or Linda@LindaBlackman.com.

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Chicago, IL (PRWEB) September 13, 2006 -- The Fit and Fertile Program, created to help overweight and obese infertility patients become pregnant, has had dramatic success. Since the creation of the program in March of this year, five of the 17 very dedicated patients taking part in Fit and Fertile have become pregnant. 



&quot;The results of the Fit and Fertile Program are impressive because overweight and obese patients have a very poor prognosis for success. And chances are, these patients may not have become pregnant without this weight loss,&quot; so says top fertility specialist Laurence A. Jacobs, M.D.

Dr. Jacobs, repeatedly selected as one of America&#039;s Top Doctors in Reproductive Endocrinology, created the Fit and Fertile program to help his overweight patients willing to make a serious commitment to using proper nutrition and physical conditioning to aid their fertility therapy.

Dr. Jacobs has annually been chosen as one of the top 1% of all fertility specialists in America by Castle Connelly, the publisher of the consumer health care guides America&#039;s Top Doctors 2000-2006. In Chicago, where Dr. Jacobs practices, Castle Connolly has also chosen him as a &quot;Chicago&#039;s Top Doctor&quot; in all their editions. Dr. Jacobs has been on Oprah, he writes a newspaper column on infertility &#38; the media calls on him for his expertise.

Key Components of the Fit and Fertile Program
1. a 5-10% weight loss can dramatically improve fertility treatment pregnancy rates
2. exercise helps with insulin resistance -- an important key in battling infertility
3. on-going group teleconferences and seminars offered to participants
4. one-on-one consultations
5. utilization of the X2Vest, a weighted vest which burns more calories

The Fit and Fertile Program utilizes a unique piece of exercise equipment as a core part of its program, a weighted vest called the X2 Vest. The X2 is an adjustable weight vest that can easily be worn in the gym, outdoors, or just around the house. The X2 Vest works safely and effectively allowing the individual to add weight to their CORE (the mid-section of the body) in one-pound increments. Adding weight to your body requires more muscle fibers to be called into action, thus requiring more calories to be burned, which allows muscle development and weight loss, and most importantly in this case potentially improving pregnancy rates.

Here are the statistics. The Fit and Fertile Program began in March. Seventeen dedicated infertile women, classified as either overweight or obese, began in the program. To date, five of the seventeen women have become pregnant.  All members of The Fit and Fertile Program have lost weight, inches as well as improving their strength and conditioning. The average weight loss has been between 1 to 3 pounds per month translating into many losing in the range of 10 to 17 pounds. Two women left the group for personal reasons. The rest continue to take part in the Fit and Fertile Program and are dealing with various phases of infertility therapies and/or infertility issues.

Dr. Jacobs points out:  &quot;Even with the use of fertility medications or IVF (In Vitro Fertilization)treatments, pregnancy rates are adversely affected by obesity. Many studies have shown that in obese women, especially those with PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome), a 5-10% weight loss often results in resumption of ovulation and higher pregnancy rates with all fertility treatments. For women who actively manage their obesity or PCOS via good nutrition, proper exercise, and help from a reproductive endocrinologist with expertise in the latest treatments, the chances of conceiving are extremely...
