Yep—Outer Limits, Twilight Zone, StarGate SG-1, Andromeda…even four episodes of Baywatch! (By the way, remind me to tell you a great Pam Anderson story some time…)
Now you know who I am—who are you? Are you someone who already has a fitness program, and looking for a new and exciting approach? Or a way to make an already great program even better? I HAVE SOMETHING FOR YOU!
Are you someone looking to get back into fitness training, and don’t know where to start? Well, friend, the FIVE MINUTE MIRACLE VIDEO system is perfect for you.
Are you someone who doesn’t have the time or energy to exercise? Are you an invalid, or someone with injuries or problems that make most exercise too difficult? THE FIVE MINUTE MIRACLE is for you!
That’s right, the secrets in this program can be added to any fitness program to increase results, or can be the basis of a GREAT program all by themselves. From nine to ninety, from world-class athlete to convalescent grandmother, these secrets can add energy and aliveness to your life.
You know something . . .
YOGA SUCKS!
That’s right, you heard me. I’ve practiced Hatha Yoga
since I was 
about ten years old, and it sucks. Why?
Well, until two years ago I considered yoga the most powerful body-mind
science in the world…
BUT IT TAKES TOO LONG! That’s right. Ashtanga Yoga (also known as “Power Yoga”) is a phenomenal system. I remember practicing it in a Los Angeles class next to KAREEM ABDUL JABBAR, when he was winding up an extraordinary career in the NBA. I figured if anyone would know the truth about yoga and its applications to health and sports performance, it would be the great Kareem—so I asked him what he thought. He replied that yoga was an ideal “foundation” from which to build fitness and performance, allowing him to compete with players fifteen years younger! I agree with that assessment, but Ashtanga takes 1-2 hours a day, just for this “foundation.”
MOST PEOPLE DON'T HAVE THE TIME! And that sucks, because at fifty-one years old, if I want to have the energy necessary to power my writing, lecturing, traveling, martial arts practice and family duties (my wife and I have just adopted a newborn baby boy, and my seventeen-year old daughter Nicki deserves a dad who can stay on top of it all!) I can’t afford two hours just for a “foundation”. Can you? Can anyone?
So I was thrilled seven years ago when I accidentally discovered a “secret” yoga system—it’s been famous on the “Yoga Underground” since about 1939, but you’ve probably never heard of it—a complete basic health and fitness system that takes only about TEN MINUTES, and is so powerful and effective that it’s known as “The Fountain of Youth.” I experimented with it, and found that I could get about eighty percent of the health benefits of Ashtanga in only twenty percent of the time. Great! And for the next six years I practiced it every day.
(Yes, this secret is included in the “Five Minute Miracle”, but that’s not the best of it!)
YOU’VE GOT TO KNOW WHY SOME PEOPLE SAY I’M COMMITTING BUSINESS SUICIDE WITH THIS DVD
In August of 2003, I took my daughter Nicki to East Africa on a research trip for a new series of books, and a movie script. I travel a lot, and an exercise program needing NO EQUIPMENT is vital. Here’s me doing Coach Scott Sonnon’s “Quad Switch” drill on a rock about 300 feet above the Serengeti Plain in Tanzania…
And here’s a picture of my gorgeous daughter Nicki in our camp atop Ngorogoro crater:
About ten minutes after that picture was taken, that elephant in the background charged our camp! We all scrambled madly for safety. Aside from mild heart attacks, everyone was o.k., but moments like that let you know just how fragile life is. On our way home (a 20-hour flight!) I did a lot of thinking about life. I realized that my daughter was no longer a child, and I wanted desperately to be certain that all of the things I’ve learned over the course of my life, all of the most essential knowledge, would be available to Nicki (and new baby boy!) in case anything ever happened to me. Would be available to the thousands of students and friends who’ve begged me to put this material on DVD for them.
So I made a decision that MY BUSINESS PARTNERS SAID WAS CRAZY.
I decided to do a “Core Dump” of the most important things I’ve learned about fitness, health, performance, and success—all in one place. This is why the FIVE MINUTE MIRACLE DVDs contain FAR MORE than they “should” by business standards. I don’t care. I don’t make my living selling exercise videos. I want to get this information out there, and NOW! I trust that if you don’t WANT this additional material, you’re smart enough to HIT THE RE-WIND BUTTON! Duh!
Maybe in a few months when I have more time I’ll re-edit this material into four separate DVDs, expand it and charge about two hundred bucks. But for now, a LIMITED TIME ONLY, what you’re getting is the accumulated wisdom of over THIRTY YEARS of research, spanning thousands of miles of travel, thousands of hours of instruction, and perhaps THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS in cost.
Here’s what you’ll get.
First:
THE FIVE MINUTE MIRACLE
Absolutely, positively guaranteed to be the most efficient and mind-boggling approach to exercise you’ve ever seen. It works, and it works IMMEDIATELY. Forget about all the excuses you’ve used for avoiding exercise. Time, space, money—forget it all. You can place your feet on the road to real, no-b.s. fitness in only FIVE MINUTES A DAY!
I swear to you that if I didn’t already know this secret, I’d pay a thousand dollars for it.
This “Top Secret Russian technique” is good for young and old, beginner and athlete, men and women. Phenomenal, amazing stuff.
1) Increase energy
2) Flatten your stomach
3) Improve endurance
4) Improve flexibility
5) Improve digestion and elimination

That’s the first five minutes. Have you got another ten? Then it’s time for:
The Fountain of Youth
Second: “The Fountain of Youth”, the “underground” yoga technique that, in only an additional ten minutes a day, gives most of the benefits of yoga programs that take over an hour! Better still, the beginning stages take only about three minutes!
1) Healthy back
2) Increased strength
3) Improved sex drive
4) Better sleep
5) Also a PERFECT “lifelong foundation” for any other fitness activities you practice—without two hours of yoga!(People who have practiced this technique also make other claims that I have been unable to verify, including darkening hair, removal of wrinkles, faster recovery from illness, and much more!)
So now you’ve invested just FIFTEEN MINUTES A DAY, and have a wealth of knowledge worth ten times the cost of the DVD.But (idiot that I am), I wanted this DVD to be a kind of “Last Will and Testament” for my son and daughter, a record of their father’s thinking on these matters.
SO…after you’ve DOUBLED YOUR ENERGY, what do you do with it? Well, you put it into the rest of your life, of course! You want not only a healthy body, but a successful career and healthy relationships as well, right?
Well, at 51 years of age I’m at 9% body fat, and recently got “carded” at a nightclub (all right, maybe the lights were low!) I’m married to the woman of my dreams, and we’re utterly in love. And career? To be honest, I make a “six figure income” doing something I’d do for free! Damn, I feel lucky! I literally can’t wait to get up in the morning to work! And I owe it all to the dozens of teachers who have given me their wisdom over the years—and now its my turn to pass it on to my daughter, my new son, and…YOU!
"Steve Barnes has created one of the most effective programs I have ever experienced! The technology he applies to the problem of human fitness is far beyond anything else I have seen in the Western world. If you only do one health and fitness program in your life, make it this one." -- Mushtaq Ali al Ansari, Senior Instructor of Silat Zulfikari.
"I can't believe the sheer power of your DVDs!" -- Dr. Al Seibert, bestselling writer and Oprah Book Club choice
Now, maybe all you want is the physical exercise. Fine: THEN TURN THE DVD OFF! That’s fine with me. The truth is that by “Packing” this DVD with vital information, it’s actually less expensive to produce than four-five separate DVDs, and I can pass that savings on to you. But you don’t HAVE to learn how to be more successful. Really. But just in case you’re interested:
"Steven Barnes is the best teacher I've ever seen in any subject. You can learn technique anywhere and from anyone. Steve communicates passion, the core of any worthwhile activity, like a demon lover on speed..!" -- Daniel Keyes Moran, author of The Long Run (rated one of the "Internet top 100 Science Fiction Novels of all time!")
The I.D.E.A system
Third: The I.D.E.A system. Instinctive Designation of Energy and Attention. I.D.E.A. is the key to developing an instinct for success, health, and happiness. Use this “key” idea and you’ll be on your way to the life of your dreams. So simple, so powerful. The accumulated wisdom of decades of research, boiled down into a simple, understandable form. Know this secret, and you can go full-bore all-out, 24/7 obsessive after success with ZERO RISK of hurting yourself, your family, or your health!
But Wait—there’s more! Now you’ve got health, and energy, and are developing and intuitive ability to create the life you want.
How can you deepen this process?
YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND YOURSELF
In all likelihood, you have a very limited view of your potential. Included in this incredible package is what is, arguably the most sophisticated model of human potential ever created, so powerful that psychologist Carl Jung said that, in comparison, ALL OF WESTERN PSYCHOLOGY has only about 60% of it!
For a limited time only, I’m adding the “gem” of my life, the self-improvement system I’ve spent ten years developing and teaching to thousands of students. It’s called “Lifewriting”, and when you have the “Five Minute Miracle” and I.D.E.A. as foundations, you can use this technique to LITERALLY improve your life while you SIT ON YOUR BUTT WATCHING TELEVISION!
Lifewriting is based on the fabulous discovery that the accumulated wisdom of the entire human race is encoded in the stories we tell each other. Movies, books, television�the basic structure of drama is nothing other than the tribal elders teaching the �young folks� what they will need to succeed in life! Once you�ve learned this, THE SKY�S THE LIMIT!
"I have read much over the last 4 years, to improve how I lived and how I wrote. But nothing combined the two into such basic understandable holistic symmetry as did your "Lifewriting" workshop. "`When the student is ready the master appears.' "Your advice is a honored gift" My goal and resolve has been galvanized by the `Lifewriting' DVDs. Thank you for being my teacher!" -- Corey Locke
"The� DVDs� by Steven Barnes, are outstanding. Barnes educates, entertains, and more importantly, motivates� in a no-nonsense cut-to-the-chase method useful for everyone from beginners to working professionals. He's been there, done that, and he shares it joyfully herein. The DVDs would be a bargain at twice the price."
-- New York Times best selling novelist Steve Perry"I cannot think of a more useful tool. Thorough, folksy, immaculately reasoned, eminently listenable, the DVDs fortunately mirror Barnes' personality: intelligent, dedicated and extraordinarily witty." -- 1982 PULITZER PRIZE nominee Chris Bunch
�Lifewriting�changes recreation into restoration, and allows us to decipher the collective wisdom of mankind (no small feat!). It is the ultimate interpreter for the language of personal myth." -- Mike Sargent, writer, filmmaker, radio personality (WBAI "Nightshift")AND THEN, FOR THOSE WHO WANT THE MOON
Fourth:A SECOND DVD
Absolutely FREE with you purchase of the Five Minute Miracle.
For a limited time only, while supplies last, I�m including a SECOND DVD. That�s right. I�m reaching back into my archives for a DVD that my students have been begging me to re-release for years, a lecture on LIFEWRITING given in 1999, one of the only times I�ve gone into real depth on these critical subjects. This is ONLY for those who won�t settle for second best, who want to understand themselves, their world, and what it takes to succeed at ANYTHING you could ever want to do. How can I say this?
BECAUSE YOU ARE THE INSTRUMENT OF YOUR SUCCESS.
Abraham Lincoln once said �give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I�ll spend four of them sharpening the axe.� Well, YOU ARE YOUR AXE! You are the instrument that will achieve any success you ever enjoy. The more energy you have, the more confidence and health, the more clarity and flexibility, the more creativity, the better your balance as a human being, the better your chance of success!
(P.S.�although not specifically for novelists and screenwriters, this second DVD has also been called �the best writing course I�ve ever seen� by dozens of students. But it�s not just about books, movies and television�it�s about you, and the way our minds organize reality. Once you know these secrets, you�re on your way to being anything you want. Now if you just happened to want to be a writer, well�don�t let me stop you!)
So that�s it, the best, most valuable package I�m capable of creating. This is for the thousands of students who�ve begged me to update my �Lifewriting� material�for people who want the MOST EFFICIENT PHYSICAL FITNESS PROGRAM in the world, for my children and friends and family�
I�m putting my whole reputation on the line with this, and I�m willing to because, like I said, if I didn�t already HAVE this information , I�d pay at LEAST a thousand dollars for it. So it feels fair to ask you to take a chance, to trust me. Try it. If you are dissatisfied anytime in the first year, send it back for a complete refund.
So this is what you get:
FIRST: The Five Minute Miracle (worth the price of the DVDs by itself!). Exercise while driving your car, laying in bed, walking down the street�or turn it into a belly-busting abdominal workout you won�t believe!
SECOND: �The Fountain of Youth��a super-efficient fitness program that takes only ten minutes, and needs no equipment!
THIRD: I.D.E.A. �devastatingly simple approach to organizing your life so that you will spontaneously learn everything you need to know to achieve your dreams!
FOURTH: Lifewriting�How to distill the combined wisdom of all mankind. Improve your life while you watch movies and television!AND
FIFTH: The bonus DVD . . .
A live lecture deepening your understanding of �Lifewriting�, as well as teaching dozens of critical techniques for implementing it more powerfully.
What would you expect to pay for all of this?
That�s the package. Like I said, knowing what this material has done for my life (I wake up when I want to, go to bed when I want, do only what I want, and have more energy than anyone I know!
I�d pay at least a thousand dollars for this material. What would you pay? Fifty dollars? A hundred? A hundred and fifty?
WELL, YOU CAN�T.
Because, until my partner holds a gun on me and makes me behave like a business man, I�m betting you won�t be �scared off� by a low price. That the depth and breadth of knowledge won�t intimidate you. That if all you want is the exercise material, you�re smart enough to just �turn it off� after the first twenty minutes.
That you�ll grasp that this is the OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIME, to get all of this for ONLY 39.95, PLUS SHIPPING AND HANDLING.
That�s right, you didn�t misread: Just 39.95. I can�t imagine how to do this more fairly, and I hope that you can hear the sincerity in my words. And if for ANY reason you are unhappy within the first year, just send the DVDs back for a full, unquestioned refund.
Well, that�s it�I can�t think of anything else to say to convey why you NEED THESE DVDS. So think about it, do the research you need to do to convince yourself of my sincerity, and then�ACT TODAY!
