The Truth About Six Pack Abs Review
The Truth About Six Pack Abs is the best ab program on the net for good reason. It tells it like it is. People who follow its advice get results.
I do not support the goal of a six pack for reasons of vanity. I think it is an excellent goal because of the personal development you have to go through in order to achieve it.
To get a six pack you have to seriously alter your eating patterns. You have to exercise regularly and do full body functional workouts at high intensity that progressively get more difficult. You have to embed some massive new habits into your life and you have to stick to it. Setting the goal to achieve six pack abs is no small thing. It is a lifestyle choice.
Mike Geary, the author of Truth About Six Pack Abs, also has this philosophy and it is one of the reasons I endorse his work. Getting a six pack changes you. The physical changes are minor compared to the mental changes that will happen as you become a disciplined goal setting individual.
Truth About Six Pack Abs Gives You All The Detail
I can tell you exactly what is in this book in just a few sentences. It is not complex and it is not really that much information. Simply put all you need to do to achieve a six pack is:
- Eat a caveman style Paleolithic diet consisting of meat, fish, nuts, fruit, vegetables and seeds.
- Omit any processed or refined foods including bread, rice, pasta and any modern sugary crap.
- In addition to that you need to do intense full body functional workouts using free weights and body weight rather than machines or boring cardio.
It really is quite simple. Yet it is hard at the same time. Most people never achieve it because they do not have the willpower or stickability.
What you get from the Truth About Six Packs Abs is exceptional detail regarding why certain foods are bad and why others are good. You get a thorough understanding of why certain exercises are a waste of time and others are brilliant.
I believe that the better your understanding and the deeper your knowledge the more likely you are to succeed. When you understand exactly why you are doing something and what benefit you are receiving you are more likely to stick at it.
Nutrition
Nutrition advice need not be complex. The industry wants it to be complex because then they can make money by telling you all "the secrets" you need to know.
But it is simple. Eat food that comes from the land or sea. It is either vegetation that in the form of nuts, seeds, fruit and vegetables or it is animals and animal products that roam the land such as meat, milk and eggs. Or anything that comes from the ocean like fish and shellfish.
You can go into the minor details of fats, protein, carb proportions and micronutrients if you want to. But you don't have to. The Truth About Six Pack Abs delves into the detail but ultimately comes to the conclusion that it doesn't really matter, as long as you eat natural foods and stay away from modern processed stuff.
Workouts
Contrary to popular belief you should not focus on ab workouts if you want a six pack. Your six pack is likely to be strong enough to be defined if only you got all that stomach fat out of the way. It doesn't take that much to define a six pack if the body fat is out of the way. This is the easy part at the end.
You have to focus on the big muscles in the rest of your body with exercises like squats, deadlifts and bench press. It seems counter-intuitive but forget about the six pack and the six pack will come.
The problem is getting to a low enough body fat percentage that the six pack can be seen. What The Truth About Six Pack Abs encourages is increasing your resting metabolic rate or RMR. Considering you are resting a lot more than you are actually working out it is the time spent in rest that is most important.
You raise your RMR with an increased muscle mass. You also raise it when you perform workouts that have a long after burn, i.e. you keep burning calories as you recover many hours after the work out is complete.
This book gives you many exercises that you can do in a gym or at home that are full body functional exercises that have a long afterburn and increase your RMR. This is what you need to burn fat, tone up and unveil your six pack.
Who This Book Is Not For
This is not for people who are looking to get massive. The book is geared around shedding fat and putting on lean muscle mass, rather than bulky weight.
It is not for people who are looking for a solution that requires no pain, sacrifice and discipline. This will require all three of those. You cannot get a six pack without it.
