"I am a 42 year old veteran of the United States Army, of which I spent 22 years active duty. In that time, I worked as a paratrooper-mechanic, infantryman and drill instructor. The activities I participated in on a daily basis include but were not limited to 4 to 10 mile runs in the morning with calisthenics; 4, 8 and 12 mile foot marches with 60 pound rucksack, heavy lifting in every conceivable position on a daily basis, airborne operations with combat equipment exceeding 265 pounds and the ever faithful standard of putting your weapon into operation once you land, recover your equipment and double-time it to the assembly area with all that equipment on your person. Hopefully one could find it in the darkness in a reasonable amount of time. What is the bottom line? You had to be mentally and physically tough to endure these rigors.

After 22 years of training troops and doing Uncle Sam’s business abroad, I retired a back-broken individual who woke daily to sharp pains which ran up my back and down the back of my legs. In x-rays, my L-4 and 5 were black! I thought I would need surgery and spend the rest of my life taking medication. Little did I know that my life would take a drastic change for the better in December of 2006.

The first time I was told about Symmetry by Patrick Mummy, I was skeptical. If there were such a solution for my back pain, the military would be an intricate and developmental part of it. After all, I served honorably and deserve the best! After getting measured and going through my first routine, I will admit I felt better. However, I was still very skeptical that exercises would alleviate my pain. I was given a Symmetry routine and continued to follow that routine’s guidelines until I finished. Then I went on to my second routine and then third. I have not felt this limber and agile since I was a young paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division. It is just amazing!

I can tell you quite honestly that I quit doing the routine once. But that lasted all of 10 days, until my back pain became so unbearable that I had to restart my routine. Two days after restarting, the pain was totally gone. Why do I sing the unsolicited praises of something I have to pay for? Because it works and I think everyone who experiences back pain should learn of this program and do it to improve their standard of living. Back pain can be stressful, and today, I am stress free!"


Thank you Patrick and Symmetry!
