Metabolic Prime Review: new Jade Teta program

Metabolic Prime is a new program from Dr Jade Teta that claims to be the world’s fastest workout. You do “metabolic meta-bursts” of 45 seconds of exercise (yes, seconds, not minutes) for a total of less than one hour a WEEK of activity. From that, they say you can reverse metabolic aging, burn fat, sculpt a fit body and increase your energy.

Those are big claims! In this Metabolic Prime review, we’ll examine the basis of the program and whether the statements seem justified.

Metabolic Prime has now been updated and renamed Metabolic Aftershock.

Update, September:
Dr. Jade has just released another program called Metabolic Renewal, specially for women. If you’re female, click here to see my Metabolic Renewal Review.

What is the Metabolic Prime/Aftershock program?

Metabolic Prime/Aftershock offers a program of quick and intense exercises, designed to help you lose fat fast by boosting your metabolism. You exercise in short 45-second bursts and then rest. The plan was designed by Dr Jade Teta, an integrative physician who runs a metabolic clinic in North Carolina.

Dr Teta says people of any age (even over 60s) can do these exercises and will see results fast. The idea is that they reset your metabolism and turn your teenage fat burning genes back on, at full power.

The program only takes a few minutes a day, adding up to 45 minutes per week. Not per day – per WEEK! That’s not much time, so it will fit into the schedule of the busiest person. No special equipment is needed and you can do the movements at home or in your workplace, anywhere really, you don’t have to go to a gym. You don’t have to do long cardio sessions, either. According to Dr Teta, this program is all you need.

The program comes with a full set of videos either by instant download or DVDs shipped to your home. If you choose the DVDs you get the instant download version too, so you can start right away.

The short, intense and quick exercises are designed to work the muscles at maximum intensity for the least effort. It’s not necessary to exercise for long stretches of time. Most of the fat burning effect happens after the workout ends.

This type of training switches on our metabolic activators, says Dr Teta. This helps you burn more fat, sculpt a lean body, strengthen bones and tune up the digestive system. He even says it can help the brain work better.

So let’s ask the big question for any Metabolic Prime/Aftershock review:

Does Metabolic Prime/Aftershock work?

Metabolic Prime and Aftershock have been designed with real people in mind, and tested on a wide range of participants. Jade Teta figured out what worked for his personal clients, and designed this program to offer the same thing to people outside his local area.

You’ll be most likely to benefit if you fit the profile of the average successful user of the program. That means if you’re either overweight or ‘skinny fat’ (i.e. within the healthy BMI range, but flabby and unfit). It can work for young people but it’s especially effective for over 35’s. Older people report feeling and looking from 10-20 years younger – you can see the evidence and some of their before and after photos on the website here.

Is it safe? That’s a good question, especially if you are older or in any kind of risk group. The answer is that it’s safer than a lot of other forms of exercise. It doesn’t put your body under strain for long periods of time, stress your back, or cause the joint damage that something like running can do. However, you should always check with your doctor before starting an exercise program, especially if you have health issues.

What about diet? If you need to lose weight, Metabolic Prime/Aftershock can help you by increasing your metabolism so that you burn more fat even while resting. Of course, you’ll lose more if you follow a healthy diet. Advice on diet comes with the plan. But the most important thing is not to eat more to compensate for the exercise you’re doing. You could eat the same as you eat now and lose weight slowly by burning more calories, but if you follow the diet advice, you’ll likely lose faster.

Who can benefit from Metabolic Prime/Aftershock?

You’ll likely benefit most from Jade Teta’s Metabolic Prime and Aftershock program if you want to lose fat and/or tone up your body.

It’s especially good for over 35’s (right up to seniors). Younger people can do other types of exercise without too much risk, but some types of exercise can injure those of us in our late 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s. For example, weight lifting or long cardio sessions can stress the heart, cause joint injuries or damage the back.

The short bursts of exercise required in this program are perfect for people with busy schedules or people who dislike exercise and get bored quickly.

Many of us have the experience of having started an exercise program and quit because it was too time consuming. Then any muscle that has been built, quickly turns back to fat. You can avoid that situation by picking a program like Metabolic Prime that’s simple, easy to remember and quick to do.

Who will not benefit from the program

If you’re already getting plenty of exercise and you enjoy it, you likely don’t need this program. If you enjoy going to the gym or working out in a group exercise class three times a week or more, you’re probably getting the exercise you need.

This program is more suited to people who don’t enjoy exercise, don’t like working out in groups or don’t have the money or the time to join a gym. It’s quick and you don’t need machines. It might also be good for people who are doing only one type of exercise, where some muscles are worked much harder than others, and you need to balance that up.

Again, if you already own Metabolic Aftershock, you’ll find they’re very similar. This is an update and you might not need it. There are extra bonuses and you may want to get it anyway to remotivate yourself, but the original program worked so well that Jade Teta has not made a lot of changes.

If you’ve read this far in our Metabolic Prime reviews, you won’t expect it to work by magic. The exercises are very quick – short bursts of activity 45 seconds long followed by a rest, total 45 minutes in a WEEK. That’s only 15 minutes a day for 3 days and nothing on the other 4 days. But you do have to give it that time. It’s not enough to just sit on the couch and watch the videos 😉

However … if you’re very unfit, you can start on the couch, and do the lowest level moves there. There are different levels according to your fitness, and you can move through them as you improve. That’s why it can cover such a range of ages and fitness levels. Jade Teta says the oldest person following the program so far was aged 83.

Be sure to take the rest breaks, and as we’ve said before, talk to your doctor before starting. Remember that the body burns fat AFTER exercise not during it, so rest breaks are vital for your success.

      No, Metabolic Prime is no longer available and has been replaced with Metabolic Aftershock (link). That one is designed for both men and women, while Metabolic Renewal is designed especially for women. If you wanted something slightly different, you could go for Aftershock. But you could also repeat Metabolic Renewal and make it more challenging.

      Enjoy! Rosemary

      The exercises can be modified to suit different fitness levels, so you should talk to your doctor about how much exercise you can do, then adjust the program to follow your doctor’s advice.

    I am training for a 10 k race in May. Could I use Metabolic Prime in conjunction with my training, or should they be done separately in order for the program to be the most effective?

      Congratulations, Maggie! I don’t know if they have any more videos planned, but meanwhile, you just continue! If you moved up to the higher levels with resistance, that should be all anyone needs to keep fit.

    Hi everyone. I am a fit 60 years young and absolutely LOVE this program. I used to work out at the gym and got totally bored. The workout was unstructured and to do every exercise listed would have taken hours. I am not joking. I thank God that I found this program. I have built muscle on my upper chest area that I was unable to do previously. My cellulite is also getting better and I have become more flexible. Also, I had never rested as much as I do now without feeling guilty.
    Being shown proper form is also important. I look forward to the workouts each week and being able to go to next level (using resistance bands, then weights)I walk a lot and love that this is incorporated into the program.
    Thank you.

    How many calories do you estimate you would burn during the phase one work out? I’m 166 lbs and 5’9″ can’t seem to find this info anywhere. I bought the program and am using it but trying to add these workouts to my fitbit. Any suggestions are welcome!

      I think the reason they don’t publish this is because it’s so individual. Everyone goes at their own pace. You might do twice as many squats as me in the time, so knowing the figures for somebody else won’t help much.

      What I would do if I were you is keep a notepad beside you and count how many you do of each exercise, or how much time spent, and then look up somewhere online what calories that would have expended.

      Hope that helps, Rosemary

      Hi Jaci, yes something like this would be great for getting over a plateau. You likely need to shake things up and this would certainly do it!

    Hi, I am trying to decide if either MA or MP are right for me, and if so….which one?? I am female, age 51, in great physical shape (size 0-2), flat stomach, and look very young for my age. I also do Pilates mat work 4-5 days/week, as well as walking for 30″ several days/week. The Pilates is great for my chronic low back soreness and neck pain from an injury (I see chiropractor 1/mth). I have a strong core and flat stomach. I just went through menopause as well with pretty much flying colors. The things I would like to work on are the obvious health benefits of these programs, as well as toning (especially cellulite in upper thighs/butt) and building more muscle. Which program would be best for me?? I want to remain as healthy as possible inside and out, but don’t want to overdo the exercise and burn out. Also, would I be able to still do Pilates mat work since it helps with my back and core? Again, I don’t want to do too much and increase cortisol in my system. I should note that occasionally I will take a bike ride in my hilly neighborhood for cardio, but other than that I don’t get much cardio on my brisk walks because I’m in pretty good shape. Whew…that was a lot of info! But I hope you can help…I’m really confused with all of Dr. Teta’s programs, and trying to decide which would be best. P.s….I hate lunges b/c I have knee pain when I do them :((

      Hi Katie,
      Metabolic Aftershock is the original program and the most popular, so if you want one of them, I’d go for Metabolic Aftershock.
      They are intensive, short-burst exercises. I don’t think you’d find it would burn you out, but I can’t comment on medical issues, not being medically qualified.
      There are some lunges and squats. You might have to go gently with those. I find knee pain gets better when I do them carefully, but obviously that could be different for you. I don’t know of a way to work the thighs and butt without also working the knees.
      I hope that helps. If you have more questions about the program, you could contact the company: click here and scroll down to the bottom of the letter, right above the scientific references, to where it says “Contact Us”.

    Bought the program. Fantastic. Highly recommend it. Happy with the downloads. Preferring to “roll my own” menus but great ideas in the recipes for variety. Love the first week accelerated fat loss plan with the naked shake in the morning. Great plan to go to before and after a vacation where indulging more.

    Do i have to buy all the other stuff that they are offering before I check out.
    I don’t see an option – that i don’t have to – or No thanks option

      Sonya, No! You don’t have to buy anything else. You should have an email with details of how to access the program (check your spam or junk file, if you can’t find it) and you can just close the browser tab or window.

    Thank you Rosemary. Did you find a lot of variety in them? I signed up for an email subscription with ME where you got a weekly free workout so I am wondering if it more of the same.

      They seem pretty varied to me. I haven’t got bored yet! But I don’t know about the free ones and whether they would be similar. I hope you enjoy them 🙂

    I am trying to decide between just buying the down load or the hard copy. How many total actual minutes of workout time is there that I will be downloading?

    Reply
    1. Rosemary C Post author

      I have them on my computer at home but I’m pretty sure it’s 12 x 15 minute videos, plus 4 x 5 minute burnout videos, making a total of 200 minutes if my math is right 😉
