- Brad Heineck, physical therapist.
- We're the real, most famous physical therapists

- In our opinion, of course, Bob.
- Amazing, how to burn 67,000 plus calories and love it!
- You better believe it, Bob. - Five easy steps.
So, hang on.

Right now (laughs), that didn't work.

- Yeah, we're giving away the eye relieve TENS units.
A lot of them are TENS and EMS,
which is electrical muscle stimulation.
These are great for pain control.
We really like these devices, really works well

- Yeah we did.

we have a 60 second version of our program.
Take it away, Mr. Bradley Heineck.
- All right, the calorie, you gotta burn those calories,
lose some fat, burn some weight off your body,
but it's really nice if you enjoy it.
- That's right. - Love what you do.
- Yeah, you gotta make it part of your routine,
otherwise you won't do it, make it a habit.
- Right, but again, something you enjoy.
If you don't like it, this situation,
whether it's walking, biking, going to an aerobics class.
My wife really enjoys going to her class.
She pretty much gave up working out with me.
Anyway, what does that say so? - Win-win, so.
- And the next step is,
this is something that I've known and everyone knows,
but I never really experienced it till this year,
is get a piece of technology that helps you--
- Track it.
- Track it and helps you get motivated to stay on
and so what I did, my activity I like is biking.
Always enjoyed it,
always look forward to getting out biking.
There's never enough time to do it,
things are going on, et cetera, bad weather,
but I always make time.
So I got this nice, new computer, yeah,
little thing to tell you your time, your distance.
- It's really tiny.
- Yeah, this is a smaller one
and I always had computers before,
but not a nice one like this
that really tracks things really well and it does calories
and it tells you how many times you went out
and it tells you heart rate,
everything. - Speed?
- Yes, speed, yes you can, it took me a while
to figure out how to use it, of course.
- So I seriously don't know the answer to this,
how fast are you going normally maybe on a straightaway?
How many miles per hour? - well, my average,
if I'm doing averaging 20, I'm doing pretty good.
- 20 miles an hour? - Yeah.
It's not real slow, but for 57 it's okay.
Whatever, it doesn't really matter what your speed is,
as long as you're doing something you enjoy.
So what happened with me and why I made this video
because it really motivated me, was I got into,
around here there's about a five,
maybe six month window to operate your bicycle.
- Right, you'll run into the snow season and cold.
- And we had a lot of rain in the spring,
but anyway it was in August and I looked at this,
my total history and I was at 700 and something miles.
I thought, man I could get 1000 miles this summer,
that would be cool and then I looked at the calories
and it gives you a total and I was at about 40,000 calories.
That is really cool, I'm really burning it away here
and so I kept on getting my rides in per week as I could
and then it came down to September, I had my last event--
- Again, a lot of rain and a lot of cold, early this year.
- And I got to September when I normally put my bike away,
halfway through September, my last race, I'm done,
but I looked and I had about 100 miles to go,
and I thought I can do that.
20 miles I usually ride and so I got down to 25 miles to go
and twice I was had my bike ready to go and my wife said,
we've got something we have to do.
And so I had to put, I literally had to put the bike away,
beautiful fall weather and then October 29th,
just a couple days ago, I said I gotta do it.
It was cold, I bundled up in weather gear,
and I put my last 25 miles on to break 1000 miles
and came up with over 67,000 calories.
- And this is a testimony. - This motivated me.
- Yeah, there's no way you would have done that
without this. - No, absolutely not.
- There's no way you thought I got 25 more,
and I've seen my wife, she's got a Fitbit,
I've seen her late at night go out
and walk around in a circle just to get a few more,
'cause that thing is totally motivating to her.
She's got a goal everyday of 10000 steps by 10:00,
and then she has goals after that.
Amazingly, how much it motivates her.
- Exactly, so I sat down, I did some math,
in that five months, I did 1000 miles in 59 rides.
Whoa, I just turned something on here.
And it's only 59 rides, 63 hours of time
and really 10 rides per month.
So I'm thinking next year for sure I'm going for 1000 again
and maybe a little more.
So you need to set some goals that are obtainable.
I now know what's obtainable for me.
- Sure, you know what your range is, what you're able to do.
- And so that's step number three,
number four is get a fitness partner
or someone who'll help motivate you.
Whether it's your spouse, a friend.
I've got a friend, Chris,
I work out with every Saturday morning
unless we're busy working or, with family.
Otherwise in the summer we get up at five
and we ride at five 'cause there's no cars out
and now we go swim at 6:30 every Saturday.
We talk about our workout and stuff,
how's it going, this that and the other thing.
- I was in college, I can't tell you how many times
I motivated people or they motivated me.
I'd be like, nah I'm tired and they'd be like,
come on Bob let's go and then you'd go
and you'd be happy when you were there.
- Once you get going, when you're done,
you feel strong like bull,
like a mountain. - There you go, right.
- And not last or not least is number five,
is monitor and document your progress.
Which this takes care of.
- It's almost like a gaming system now,
you wanna win at a game, video game,
this is just like the real life video game
that's really got a great benefit for you.
- I used to do it on paper all the time.
I'd come in, I'd have my clipboard and write it down
and with time I got away with that, I didn't get back to it,
I had done that for about 10 years
and now you don't have to do it.
- Can you put a link towards the Fitbit below,
and also the Garmin.
- Yeah this is a simple, Garmin has--
- A whole bunch of 'em.
- Yeah and they're pretty high end, this is $200.
- Okay, so you gotta be a serious biker.
- Yeah and I like this one because it's GPS,
I can put it, I have three different bikes I ride,
I can just clip it off, I don't have to have three wires.
So if you're at all a serious biker you may,
but if you're just casually biking,
go buy one of the cheaper ones for 30 dollars.
- How many bikes do you have, Brad?
- I got rid of some, but--
- How many bikes do you have, Brad?
- You mean my wife or just me?
Three or four, I don't know, but I only ride three.
- But you have a tandem one too.
- Well yeah but we only rode that twice this year. (laughs)
- You used to have eight, didn't you?
- Yeah, but a lot of them were vintage.
They weren't worth riding but they were fun to look at.
- He's got a problem, all right thanks.
