NYC, July 8th 2008

World-renowned fitness expert Michael Gonzalez-Wallace has developed with the advise of several prominent neuroscientists an innovative exercise program that is presented to a vast audience of viewers and readers throughout USA.?Michael Gonzalez-Wallace has been featured in different media sources such as O (Oprah magazine), The Washington Post, ABC,Fox news, Chicago Tribune,CNN Headline news, Prevention or Fitness magazine

How does it work?

Michael Gonzalez-Wallace’s innovative fitness program "The Brain Muscle Workout" incorporates intense brain activity through movements requiring balance and coordination to improve concentration and attention while performing hundreds of challenging exercises. His program requires an active use of the area of the brain called the cerebellum, area responsible for balance and coordination. In addition great muscular strength and cardiovascular activity are expected. The exercises are structured to advance gradually. There are over 300 exercises per year.

Who has reviewed the Program?

"The Brain Muscle Workout," advisory board is featuring several experts in diverse fields. This advisory board includes Dr. John Martin, a Ph. D in neuropsychology from Columbia University; Dr. Greg Lombardo MD, Ph. D, an expert in child psychiatry; Laura Corby, a national speaker on autism and founder/CEO of the Autism Solution Center; Maria Dorfner, an award-winning medical reporter; and Olinka Podany, a clinical nutritionist.

John Martin, is PHd in Neurobiology from Columbia University "Michael's exercises require new coordination patterns," says Martin. "They seem to mix a challenging posture requiring balance together with a limb movement. This may be similar to creating a cognitive reserve by learning a new language later in life, or learning to play a musical instrument. The exercises likely drive more neural activity in more parts of the brain. This can strengthen neural connections in the action systems of the brain. Perhaps, the more you need to think during a complex movement, the more you recruit connections in the cognitive systems of the brain. While speculative, this may be a way for exercises that require you to think about your moves to benefit parts of the brain for memory and for learning facts."

GREG LOMBARDO, MD, PH.D. is a prestigious child psychiatrist in NYC who is an expert in Bipolar Disorder.

The results that can be expected are:
1- Greater Physical strength and endurance
2. - Improved cardiovascular function and control of weight gain
3. - Improvement in balance and coordination
4. - An improvement in their perception of their body and their body related to space.
5. - An improvement in concentration and attention
6. - An improvement in self-esteem and mood
