Mark Lebos and Shaman DeArco are
making housecalls. They are not doctors, but certified personal trainers who
are hosting FitTV's newest program -- FitTV's HOUSECALLS. Mark and Shaman go
door-to-door pulling people off their couches and on the way to getting fit and
healthy. This dynamic duo proves that, with a little creative thinking and
energy, anyone can get a great workout, right at home. FitTV's HOUSECALLS
debuts Monday, September 27 at 8 PM (ET/PT) and airs regularly on Sunday,
Monday and Thursday at 8 PM (ET/PT).
Part workout, part home-makeover and part fitness, health and nutritional
education, FitTV's HOUSECALLS is designed to help homeowners build a personal
home fitness system and get a great workout. Mark and Shaman work with any
size home -- from small apartment to sprawling mansion, they create a dynamic,
personal workout space for everyone. These fitness gurus make use of everyday
household items -- from dining room chairs to workbenches to dusty old exercise
equipment to transform any space. And because eating well is part of overall
good health and fitness, they invade kitchen shelves, raid refrigerators and
take homeowners grocery shopping to help them create practical healthy meals
and snacks. Viewers can use Mark and Shaman's expert advice and low- to
no-cost home fitness techniques to update their own personal exercise routines.
Mark Lebos and Shaman DeArco are certified personal trainers with extensive
experience working with clients of all shapes, sizes and abilities. Mark Lebos
has an accomplished background in exercise physiology and sports science.
Shaman DeArco is a former junior Olympian and an accomplished martial arts
expert. FitTV's HOUSECALLS debuts Monday, September 27 at 8 PM (ET/PT).
