Shapely Secrets Review
What You Should Know
Shapely Secrets was created by a wife and mother named Greer Childers. At the age of 28, Greer was overweight and fed up, so she decided to invent her own diet and exercise plan that would be easy to stick to on a daily basis. Shapely Secrets is a seven-minute-a-day routine that incorporates diametric resistance, which is an exercise philosophy that is based exercising without moving and creating resistance by pressing one muscle against another. Greer boasts that this form of exercise is more effective than weight training and has been scientifically proven to work. She even goes so far as to say that by following her program, users will lose 6 pounds in 14 days and will be more toned and trimmed.

Product Features
The Shapely Secrets kit includes a Getting Started DVD or Video, a 7 Minute Workout DVD or Video, 7 Secrets to Being Thin and Shapely Guide, a Personal Success booklet, Success Chart, Tape Measure, Timer and a Reminder bookmark, a Small Steps to Big Success audio CD, a designer makeup bag, a platinum plated necklace, a 30 day supply of a fat burning supplement and an offer to upgrade the program and receive the supplements at a discounted rate, all at a price of $42.97.
In the Shapely Secrets DVD’s, Greer takes you step-by-step through the program’s exercises, which are intended to take only 7 minutes per day. The program does not use weights, resistance bands or any other forms of resistance. The idea of diametric resistance is to work two muscles at the same time creating a total body workout in a shorter time period. There are a few problems associated with this program. First the program does not address dieting, there is no cardiovascular exercise encouraged at all and the program is not intended for pregnant women or overweight children. There is nothing on the official website about what is contained in the fat burning supplements that are included in the plan, so it is unknown if it is safe to use them as part of the program.
Advantages
- Shapely Secrets includes a 30 day money back guarantee if not completely satisfied with the results.
- Includes a lot of extras for the price, although not all of them are pertinent to losing weight.
Disadvantages
- The program does not include cardiovascular exercise.
- The scientific research for diametric resistance exercise is not published on the official website.
- Not intended for pregnant women or overweight children.
- Could require lots of willpower to stick to this program.
Conclusion
The Shapely Secrets program is a low impact resistance exercise routine that seems to be safe and may even produce some toning results. But for those who want to lose body fat, a program that includes cardio exercise that raises the metabolism has proven to be more effective in burning calories. There is no scientific evidence that suggests that diametric exercise will produce better results than any other type of resistance exercise and the fact that little to nothing is disclosed about the fat burning supplements included in the kit leaves many unanswered questions in our minds.
