CYCLING Testimonial: Name: Geoffrey N.

Just to share with you my performance in the 2006 Great Perth Bike Ride, a 55 Km circuit around the banks of the Swan River, created to raise money for the West Australian Heart Foundation, in which I participated on the last Sunday of November, with the goal of demonstrating the "X2O Advantage".

My chronological age is 59 years. I have never ridden more than 30 kms on a single day before in my life and felt that an event such as the one I describe here would afford us some good publicity.
I entered on the Friday and on Sunday morning 26 November; I was at the START, with friend and business partner, Steve Antonio on camera to record all.

The event, though "not a race" never-the-less posed a certain challenge to those not habituated to such a distance. I set off with confidence and before long found myself gaining on and passing, without any particular effort, many of the other riders. I noted with some interest that quite a few of those who had started ahead of me were pulling out after 20, 30 and 40 kms, with complaints that I could hear as I rolled on through, such as "leg cramps", "heat exhaustion" and "dehydration".

I, on the other hand, to my surprise suffered none of these and after a slight apparent loss of energy at about 25 kms, felt a definite resurgence of power that did not diminish even as I crossed the finish line after a respectable 2hrs and 10mins from time of start.

Many riders at the FINISH were suffering from stiff muscles (after all, most, like me, were "Weekend Warriors"), cramps and dehydration. I am happy to report that I suffered none of these; only a distinct craving for a couple of those hot dogs that they had prepared on the "bar-bee" at the Finish. Even the next day, I felt perfectly at ease and ready to "do it all again". This speaks very well for Xooma and for X2O!!

I plan to compete in more of this type of event. We noted that of the 4,000 or so riders (most of whom were using their own secret elixirs) I was the ONLY ONE on X2O!! So. Lots of potential here. Watch this space!!!

I highly recommend that you try this yourself during some event that requires of you some sort of extended physical exertion to see for yourself just how much you can gain by using Xtreme X2O.
Sincerely, Geoff Negus

TRI-ATHLON Testimonial: Name: Bryan B.

This product has proven to be amazing. I am an avid Triathlete. I have been competing for the last 7 seasons and have run over 30 races. 19 months ago, I found out I was entered in the very exclusive Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon in San Francisco, CA. This race begins with a 1.5 mile swim from The Rock back to the beach (choppy, 56 degree water) followed by an 18 mile bike and then an 8 mile run all through the hills of San Francisco. I completed the race in just over 3 hours and placed just in the top 22%.

I was very pleased. That isn't the best part. I got in the race again this year and the only real difference in my training up to the race was that I went on X2O about 5 months before the event this year. My physical training was basically the same. I shaved almost 15 minutes off of my time and finished in the top 11% overall!! I knew that this product was helping but I had no idea to what level until I ran this race. I have competed in 5 other races this year and have been at or above my personal best in all of them. I am having a great season and I plan to use this product in all of my training from now on. Thanks Xooma!!

WEIGHT LIFTING Testimonial: Name: Mitch M.

I have been an athlete all my life, playing most every sport known to man. I love to run and lift weights. I have lifted weights since I was ten years old and I still run and lift weights now at age 63. I continued to play sports after high school and while in the Army and city league sports. In my early 30`s, I started competing in Power lifting and in my 40`s went on to become a World Masters Power lifting Champion in the 242lb. body weight class. In the masters division, I set State, National and World Records, with lifts of over 750 lbs in the dead lift and squat. Hydration and electrolytes are very important when it comes to lifting heavy weights. I would have loved to have X2O back in those glory days.

I stopped competing in Power lifting on that level after age 48. I then continued to run and lift weights but not nearly as heavy as when I was competing at the international level.

The next 10 years of working out was getting harder and harder for me to keep up. I started slowing down and didn't really look forward to my workouts like I had in the past. And the aches and pains were getting worse.

I was having pain in my shoulders and ankles due to arthritis and my lungs would not give me the oxygen I needed to run like I wanted to.

When I discovered this product, I noticed right away that I had a huge increase in my lung capacity and the pain in my shoulders and ankles were starting to go away.

I started getting faster and stronger again. I wasn't really sure what was going on until I stopped taking the product for a while. As soon as I stopped taking it, I would be gasping for air and I would be sore from lifting. I now go to the gym and run my 200-meter sprints and work out with 300 lb. weights like I was 20 years old again. Before I was tired, sore and would be breathing very hard. Now, I breeze through my workouts and look forward to the next one with no aches or pains. I just consider it my secret weapon against old age.

I love competition, so my wife and I joined a runners club and started training for our 1st 5-K road race. We started running at least one 5-K race every month. We then went on to run in the world-renowned 10 mile Crim Race in Flint, Mi. and now we run in that race every year. We ran our 1st half Marathon [13.1 miles] in Detroit last October. We could have never done any of this without the help of the X2O.

We are now taking 3 times the amount we were taking before. So, now we have even more energy because we now use X2O in all the water that we drink all day long.

Testimonial:
After more than 15 years away from the sport of competitive cycling, Michelle and Darren King’s 15 year old son Jake, decided to give it a try. Knowing the danger of him being on the roads alone, they decided to join him. They soon caught the bug again and started to train more seriously.

After gradually becoming more competitive, in April 2006, they were introduced to X2O. The result was an immediate improvement in performance. They both won at the National track championships, setting new records and then recently came home with 2 gold and 2 silver medals from the World Masters in Manchester UK.

So far in 2007 they have both won all of the events that they contested, in the Metropolitan & Victorian Masters Track Championships, breaking their own Australian records. Now in their 40th year they are producing performances far beyond their previous capability.

Their son Jake, now 16 years old, trains with the Australian Institute of Sport and is showing great promise and they all agree that ‘Xtreme X2O’ has played a major role in their success.
