The whole story of how this all came about will blow your mind, as it did mine:
Twenty-six years ago I was eagerly climbing the steps of the corporate ladder in manufacturing engineering when I happened across muscle testing. I was visiting my chiropractor when he asked me to say my real name while he pushed down on my outstretched arm. Then he had me say my name was Mickey Mouse. My arm went weaker, and I could really feel it. That started a journey that I had no idea would end up here.
The more I looked into it, the more I realized that there was really something to it. I mean, this thing called muscle testing was pretty big. It had been used by millions of people across the world. My research took me down some long, winding roads (remember, this was before the internet!). Anyway, I found out it could be used for lots of stuff, from testing foods and supplements to ailments to energy medicine and more. I was pretty geeked.
Being a brash young man on a mission to save the world, I walked away from my engineering career and struck out on my own with it. But I ran into problems with muscle testing. Lots of them. You see, I was excited about muscle testing --- I even had professional training on how to use it for nutritional analysis --- but I couldn't get the same level of enthusiasm from people I was using it on. They would often doubt the validity of it. A complaint I got so tired of hearing was, "You're just pushing down harder on my arm this time!" Not exactly the response I was looking for.
But it wasn't just their skepticism. Over time, I started to notice other irregularities, too. When I tried to double-check my answers, sometimes I would get different answers. Not always, but enough to make me start questioning it. Then I would come across previous test results that I had forgotten about (I could easily test 100 things in a day), and it would show the same pattern of inconsistency, which really frustrated me. I mean, how could I really trust it if I didn't know when it was working and when it wasn't?
After struggling with these problems for about a year and finding no reliable solutions, I drifted away from using it in business, but still used it regularly in my personal life. Of course, I had to have someone else around to push down on my arm, and they had to know what they were doing. I never really could get some of the other self-testing methods to work - you know, things like the O-ring test with your fingers, rocking back and forth, pushing down on the index finger with the middle finger, etc.
Fast-forward to 14 years ago. My best friend invited me to a informal get-together at his home. You know, one of those you-come-to-find-out it's an MLM company presentation. But a most providential thing happened there. They were saying how these insoles with a magnetic grid supposedly gave you more pep to your walk. To prove it, they pushed down on my arm to show I was stronger when I was standing on them. And I was. Now, mind you, I had over a dozen years of muscle testing experiences behind me, so there was no reason why I shouldn't believe it. But guess what the skeptic in me starting thinking the next day? "I don't think he was pushing down on my arm the same way...he was just trying to sell me something...".
Anyway, here's the providential part: that very day, I decided to do something about that issue by making a self-testing device. I went down to Ace Hardware, picked up a screen door spring (you know, the kind that make the screen door go BANGGG every time it shuts), various pieces of plastic tubing, and some fabric measuring tape for a gage. It worked pretty good, even if it was a funky design. Now, I had heard these distributors were having a big meeting at Cobo Hall in Detroit the next day, so I stayed up all night making 30 more testers, and actually sold the whole satchel-full the next day. Of course, the testers all ended up breaking in the first month, but by then I was able to replace them with a more durable model. Seven generations later, it had evolved into solid and accurate equipment with a lifetime warranty. For the next couple of years, I went around the country selling these test devices to these distributors. They loved my tester, because it stopped the argument that "you just pushed harder" right in its tracks.
That's when I made another discovery.
You see, one of the things I tracked for 3 years while I was selling these test devices was that the percentage of people who weren't in a testable state -- in other words, they're weren't responding to muscle testing -- was about 1 in 3 persons. I mean, I would test 40 to 50 people in one day, so I pretty much came to expect it. Now, I knew the two most common culprits were hydration level and blood sugar level, which could be easily fixed by water and food. So in the course of the day I'd send about 1 out of 3 people off to get some food and water and return 15 minutes later. Most of the time that would fix it and they'd be in a testable state .
So here's the discovery: some of these distributors would come up to me with frustration in their voice and ask, "James, why I can't ever seem to get the muscle testing to work?" I started noticing a pattern about these people: they were generally soft-speaking, timid, and somewhat unsure of themselves. I also had a chance to talk with several successful leaders in this same company who exclaimed, "These demonstrations always work for me!" Their personalities tended to be more outgoing, confident, and self-assured. Now, how could it work for them every time, when on the average about 1 out of 3 people weren't in a testable state? Could it be that the gregarious personality of the person pushing down on their arm was influencing the outcome? And the timid nature of others causing
After I was reasonably sure this was the culprit, I started demonstrating it in action at my public speaking engagements. I would ask for a volunteer from the audience, have them come up on stage, then instruct them to test their strength several times using my self-testing device --- while I had my hand on their shoulder. What they didn't know was that when they were pulling on the bar I would also silently be thinking, "This person is a strong muscle tester" or "This person is a weak muscle tester". The rest of the audience would watch the readings go up or down on the other person, depending on what I was thinking. It was a pretty telling demonstration.
Then I got to thinking: if other people's thoughts could affect our strength, then what about our own thoughts? Hmmm...
Serious issues - back to the drawing board. I discovered my thoughts could make myself test strong on sugar, instead of weak. And vice versa on natural, wholesome food. So I tried blind testing, but that didn't work either (The reason for this was slowly uncovered over several years). I tried "emptying" my mind, and that was better, but I still couldn't get really good consistency. It wasn't easy, but over the last several years I discovered how to get the brain to behave.
Things really started taking off for me. This company with the magnetic insoles came out with a high-quality nutritional line, and digging up my nutritional training from the 1980's, I started training these distributors how to use my test device for pinpointing what their food supplement needs were. It seemed that every week I was in a different city. The frequent flyer miles started to pile up, and those upgrades to first class sure were nice! Over 40 cities across the U.S., sometimes two and three times. Germany, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, England, Switzerland. Word of my trainings started to spread to other nutritional companies: Mannatech, Lifewave, Global Health Trax, Amazon Herb Company and more.
Testimonials started coming in. I mean, check these stories out on the right. These are real people with real issues that I really helped. For the most part, these testimonials were unsolicited. I mean, sometimes a person I was talking with would be telling me about their great results and I'd ask them if they'd fire off an email about it, but other times, the emails would just come in on their own. And if you think they're just made up, call them up and ask them. Take the time to read them. These are people who've experienced excellent results over extended periods of time.
Then it all came crashing down.
Not because my protocols didn't work - I mean, look at the testimonials. Or because muscle testing itself didn't work - remember, muscle testing came on the scene 60 years ago. Or my skills as a presenter - almost everyone would say the workshops were fantastic. I still have the critique cards they turned in - pretty much all 9's and 10's. But 6 months after they'd took my workshop, this is how it shook out: one in three people would still be using it, but two out of three wouldn't even be picking up the equipment. I tried videos-in-a-box, teleconferences, follow-up get-togethers with fellow classmates, sequential email ticklers, user guides, step-by-step testing forms, you name it, but it didn't seem to make that much of a difference. It was eating me up inside, but I didn't know what to do about it.
I'll never forget a training I did on April 9, 2006 in New Jersey. I got up in front of a room full of expectant students, and couldn't quite get rid of the quiver in my voice when I said, "I can't do this training. I can't go on telling people how great this is, knowing that 6 months down the road only 1 out of 3 of you are going to be using it." My eyes actually started sweating profusedly, right there in front of the class. Not exactly professional, if you get what I mean. Anyway, to make a long story short, I ended up teaching that workshop anyway, but I committed to each and every student there that I would do whatever it took to make it work for them. And I swore off doing any more group trainings. It wasn't the best move for my company in terms of cash flow, but deep inside I knew it was the right thing to do.
What a blessing in disguise that turned out to be! It took me 4 years of developing a long-distance teaching program with students, working on it day in and day out, but these were the final discoveries for everyone to get 100% accuracy:
1. Everyone's different. You can't do it my way, or Jack's way, or anyone else's way. You've got to find your own way, your own feel, and your own truth. And when you do, it feels just right. You see, when it's your own way, you naturally remember it.
2. I figured out how to teach it to you using personal tutoring over the phone. Just like some people are lefties and other people are righties, when you discover what naturally feels comfortable to you, you'll be able to accurately replicate that feeling over and over again when you do muscle testing.
3. I've discovered the only way to teach it is one-on-one. Accommodating your learning style. Personal attention. That was the Achilles heel in my group trainings --- since everyone has their own feel, although some people would be ok with doing it "my" way, others couldn't connect. So, now that we do it your way every time, it works all the time!
So, here's the deal. Part of how we get accurate results is by using self-testing equipment. That way nobody else is touching you. That eliminates some of the problem right there. Next, we teach you how to get your brain to behave so it doesn't interfere with testing. Then how to develop an accurate feel for testing. Just like you only had to learn how to ride a bicycle once and now it's good for life, once you've learned JET Testing you can put it down for 6 months, pick it back up and smoothly begin muscle testing again. You never forget.
What about the equipment? How long does it last? Pretty much forever. It doesn't wear out, it's very durable, and it'll probably outlast you. But if it doesn't, it comes with a full lifetime warranty. It doesn't matter who owns it, where it comes from or who got it, if it breaks, we replace it. And we don't make you pay for shipping the replacement. After all, that's truly the fair way to handle replacements, isn't it?
How can we sell equipment with a lifetime warranty and a money back guarantee plus give you 4 hours of professional tutoring and still make a profit? We can’t. It's called a loss leader. We hope that after you've experienced our excellent training, you’ll consider one of our exceptional advanced courses. Testing for food sensitivities. Muscle testing for decisions. Food supplement testing. Emotional freedom techniques. MMS Testing. Nutrition testing for women's hormonal cycles. Hawkins’ work. Muscle testing for MLM'ers. Professional Certification. You might even be interested in making money training students in our patented muscle testing system.
But will you have to spend more on these classes to learn how to accurately muscle test? Absolutely not. Even without the advanced courses, you're going to learn how to do it right. I guarantee it. Any of these advanced courses are optional and there's never, ever, ever any pressure.
So what are you waiting for? It’s not the end of the world if it doesn't’t work out. All that’s at risk for you is nine bucks. You wouldn’t be reading this if you weren’t searching for a better way! We can get you accuracy for the rest of your life. At a superb price, when you think about it. Nobody else is guaranteeing that.
