Who is Ken Hutchins?

Ken Hutchins is the founder and developer of SuperSlow.

How did SuperSlow get started?

It all started through an "Osteoporosis" four year study at the University of Florida, financed by Arthur Jones, the developer of Nautilus equipment. Ken Hutchins was one of the directors of that program who had to develop an exercise protocol on middle-aged osteoporetic subjects that was precise, cautious, and sage, yet intense enough to reach the goals of the study. That protocol has evolved into SuperSlow.

Where did you get your training in SuperSlow?

I was trained and certified by Ken Hutchins himself. He requires absolute perfection and safety for certification, taking four days of oral, written, and practical exams. I am presently a certified Level II Master Instructor.

Where is your Studio located?

The Studio is located in Fremont, California, near Thornton Ave. and Paseo Padre Parkway. Since both staff and students are totally focused during the exercise sessions, we cannot accomodate "walk-ins." That's why we do not publicize the exact address. Visiting our Studio is by only.

What kind of information do you need from me in order to get started doing SuperSlow?

Just print and fill out the Information Form. You can either fax or mail it to the office. The form is also part of the information packet.

Can you tell me a little about how the program works?

The first session lasts up to 30 minutes: ½ hour of medical history, interviews, and precautions. We'll touch on the mutual promises and expectations. The last portion deals with training on the equipment.

The second session is ½ hour of more intense exercise, along with expanding on the principles of SuperSlow. Again, we will review precautions for safety. (I am with you face to face, one-on-one for the entire time you are training: setting up, positioning, instructing, and recording data.)

By the third session you will begin to experience SuperSlow at its best and from then on you will know beyond a doubt the benefits of personal exercise training.

Do you strength train only people with medical conditions or with a prescription?

Many of my students want to exercise to and improve their overall health and fitness, increase strength, and look better, but have no specific medical problem. Some people contact me through the web site or from word of mouth. As a physical therapist, some people are referred by physicians, chiropractors and podiatrists.

People with specific conditions have to be monitored more closely. An initial evaluation and report is required, and in some instances they can be covered for a period of time by their insurance. Interestingly enough, I have noticed that just about everyone has some minor-or even major-medical situation that I find on their "Health Analysis Sheet." I monitor these situations carefully as they exercise.

I welcome those who want to be stronger, lose weight and in general want a higher level of fitness.

Can I continue training after insurance no longer contributes to exercise sessions?

Yes, of course. We have several options.

What is "the packet?"

The packet is a collection of information that you must read prior to starting SuperSlow. In addition to the Information Form, it contains several other pieces of very important material.

What does it cost to learn SuperSlow?
