Lose Fat For Good.
Losing fat is the first step, keeping it off is next. Meet X-Force Body.
X-Force Body by GHF is a one-of-a-kind program that builds and tones muscle to lose fat and keep it off—with less time and effort than anywhere else in the world. Developed by renowned strength and fitness expert Ellington Darden, PhD, X-Force Body is the most efficient fat-loss program in the country! This program’s proven results and unprecedented speed toward fat loss and muscle gain have generated longstanding support by both Men’s Health and Women’s Health magazines.
Our secret weapon? The patented X-Force tilting-weight-stack machines that use the most advanced, innovative technology specifically designed to reshape your body in record-breaking time.
X-Force Body has been validated through years of clinical trials. It works. With the science behind the program, you will keep the results you achieve. But don’t just take our word for it…examine the evidence, and see for yourself.

Here's Your Fat Loss Plan
Carbohydrate-Rich Meals
You will consume small meals that are composed of approximately 50 percent of the calories from carbohydrates, 25 percent from fats, and 25 percent from proteins.
Descending Calories
You will embark on a six-week eating plan that descends the calories by 100 with each two-week period. Men drop from 1,600 to 1,500 to 1,400 calories and women move from 1,400 to 1,300 to 1,200 calories.
Super-Hydration And Cold Water Therapy
You will stifle hunger and burn more calories by drinking a gallon of ice water every day and keeping your body cool to activate the fat-burning power of your body’s brown fat stores.
More Sleep = More Muscle
What is the best thing you can do after an X-Force Body workout? Get a good night’s sleep. Muscle repair is made when you sleep. The muscle repair and building that occurs during sleep also burns a lot of calories. In fact, you burn most of your daily calories while your eyes are shut, so don’t shortchange your calorie burn. On the X-Force Body program, you will learn how best to tap into the rejuvenating, calorie-burning power of rest and sleep.
THE EXERCISE SCIENCE BEHIND X-FORCE BODY
Each X-Force Body exercise machine houses a patented “tilting” weight stack which allows for a 40% heavier resistance on the “negative” or lowering part of the exercise. This heavier negative resistance greatly increases the intensity of muscle exertion during each repetition, which translates into significant strength gains and fat loss in less time. Results that previously required three, four or five hour-long workouts a week can now be stimulated with only two, 25-minute X-Force Body sessions weekly.
Exercise scientists have found that negative (accentuated) resistance training can rapidly improve muscle size and strength. There are two phases in every strength exercise: In the positive training phase, the muscle shortens as it contracts to raise the weight. In the negative phase, the opposite happens: the muscle lengthens as it resists the weight being lowered. When we lower a weight, we are approximately 40% stronger than when we raise it.
The idea behind the X-Force Body machine is simple: by tilting the weight stack 45 degrees on the positive motion, we’re able to supply a 40% heavier load to the negative phase. The result is a deeper inroad on each repetition and more efficient (negative) training.
Benefits of “negative-accentuated” strength training:
- Elevate your fat-burning metabolism during and after hours after your workout.
- Stimulate the production of interleukin 6 and other chemical messengers that help to breakdown fat storage in fat cells.
- Boost bone density and even grow new bone cells to protect against osteoporosis.
- Reverse age-related muscle loss and build strength for life.
- Lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol, reduce systems of anxiety and depression and improve sleep.
- Improve blood sugar levels, reducing risk of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes.
