“When it’s over, it’s over” is how too many people look at their marriage when it seems like they’ve tried everything, but just can’t save marriage from divorce proceedings. Nobody gives up on marriage easily, but when marriage counselors, temporary separations, tears, anger and everything else fails, what can you do?

Marriage Fitness is a unique and innovative way of saving your marriage even when it seems unsalvageable. If you have ever tried it, you will know that sitting down with a marriage counselor and trying to speak calmly and logically about your marital problems doesn’t work too well when you’re seething with anger inside. Something else needs to be done.

Every marriage is different and the ways of dealing with a marital crisis differ from couple to couple. Marriage Fitness deals with the fundamental truths about people and marriages that apply to everyone. One of those truths is that people change and if a marriage is going to last, it has to change with the two people involved.

One of the problems with marital counseling is that there is a tendency for couples and counselors to try to make everything “nice” when it isn’t. Marriage Fitness sees all the heartache and anger in another light. These things are the foundations on which a marriage can become stronger. Mort Fertel, founder of Marriage Fitness, likens this to the making of fine wine. The grapes must be pummeled and allowed to ferment before they can be transformed into fine wine.

And so it is with marriages. It is the painful parts that eventually turn an ordinary marriage into an extraordinary marriage – if you know the secrets of how to save a marriage.
