The truth about abs-important reading

Truth About Abs has 2 flaws that were dealbreakers...until I found a way to fix them...

I'll get right to the point about The Truth About Abs.

If you do not own The Truth About Abs and your goal is to get six pack abs, then you are definitely missing out...

But I found 2 serious flaws with the program and had to personally find solutions to fill-in-the-gaps.

Basically, you'll be wasting your money if buy The Truth About Abs the way it is currently packaged. Luckily for you, I have found solutions for these flaws and want to give them to you for free. Continue reading to find out what I found...

But first, I want to share why I am writing this...

I am a work out fanatic. I have gone to the gym regularly for the past 8 years. I can't even calculate how many hours I've spent in my "2nd home."

But I've never really been a fan of abdominal products. Spending hours doing crunches has never been effective or fun, and all those other products promising ripped abs in "minutes" are just plain crap.

Recently, I came across The Truth About Abs website while surfing the internet. I've seen other products that promised me the world, only to come up empty, so I left the site. But a few days later, I reviewed it again and changed my mind.

It seemed unlike all the other programs, and offered great insightful info that defied all conventional wisdom - like how abdominal exercises DON'T burn fat away from your abs and how too much cardio can actually be an obstacle to getting 6 pack abs!

So I decided to buy the product. I thought an hour would be more than long enough to go through the program...

But an hour wasn't long enough...

The problem with The Truth About Abs is that you can spend weeks reading it, and STILL not understand what to do. In the right hands, results will be experienced...in the wrong hands, forget about it...

That's because there is just TOO much information. Mike Geary pulls no punches and gives you the truth on what it takes to get 6 pack abs.

In fact, he overdelivers with his product, which can overwhelm not only the rookie, but the advanced gym-goer as well.

Any person, especially a newbie, who picks up The Truth About Abs might get a headache trying to absorb all the knowledge and workout nuggets that Mike Geary provides.

I know, it can be overwhelming.

....................

Just so you don't think I'm exaggerating the scale of The Truth About Abs, here are some of the things covered:

* The exact science behind getting defined abs - Why multi-joint exercises will always outperform single-joint exercises (after reading this, I realized that my current workout program was ENTIRELY WRONG!)

* The myth that cardio is the "answer" - Why doing too much cardio and crunches might actually stop you from getting a 6 pack (this totally goes against conventional wisdom, but the evidence is there to back every single word written)

* Proper Diet & Nutrition - The two hidden monsters in our diet that are preventing us from burning fat, no matter how much we exercise (I was guilty of this one!)

* Advanced secret weapon exercises that aren't focused on your abs, but work your abs better than any crunch could (this blew my mind!)

* Over 50 exercises that will help you get a 6 pack...exercises you probably have not ever seen before!

So, you can see how I could have been overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information.

In fact, it took me 3 whole days of doing nothing but reading The Truth About Abs to get my hands around the exercises and diet habits enlisted by Mike Geary.

I have to tell you, Mike Geary knows his stuff and presents it in a way that is easy to understand. He is truly a guru, and The Truth About Abs is the real deal.

But, even with this wealth of information, there are 2 obvious things missing from The Truth About Abs.

Honestly, I couldn't believe that Mike Geary didn't have this as part of his program. So what was I to do?

Like they say, necessity is the mother of all invention, so I had to create these two tools myself.

I thought to myself, "If I needed these two tools, then wouldn't everyone?"

In fact, I wouldn't buy The Truth About Abs without these 2 solutions. You will just be wasting your money!

So what are these solutions I keep talking about?

Solution #1

MP3 Files of the Truth About Abs workout

Like I said before, there is loads of information in the program, and so much to absorb. There was no possible way that I could memorize the workout routines that Mike Geary put out in full detail.

There were so many different exercises that I have never heard of, and didn't know how to perform correctly. And of course you know that you must follow proper form to get results and prevent injury, right?

So I had to bring the book to the gym. Do you know how inconvenient that was? I had to flip through pages & pages trying to find the right exercise and how to do it. It was both embarrassing and inefficient.

I personally recorded the workout routines on MP3 files, detailing each exercise in the same order as in The Truth About Abs. I walk through each exercise, and give step-by-step instructions on how to properly perform each exercise. I had to tell myself...

1. How to correctly hold the weight & proper body positioning - I don't have to think about it anymore...I just follow my instructions to do the exercises correctly.

2. What muscle I should feel "working" - I now know exactly where I should feel my muscles 'squeeze' and 'flex' to get maximum results.

And I downloaded the files to my iPod to follow along with the workout routine at the gym.

No lugging around any books, flipping pages trying to find out how to do each exercise while somebody is waiting for your bench. It's like having a trainer with me every step of the way!

Solution #2

Workout Tracking Sheets

In The Truth About Abs, Mike Geary lays out workout routines in great detail. His workouts are very creative, and truly involve your entire body to get you strong, toned abs.

But he doesn't provide a way to track your workouts!

If there was one tip that I could give to anyone who wants true results from their workout program, it would be this...TRACK YOUR RESULTS!

Like the saying goes, "What gets tracked, gets results." That holds very true in this case.

I painstakingly created workout tracking sheets that I could print out, put into a binder, and bring with me to the gym to track my results.

Each sheet represents one workout. I took the exact workout routine from The Truth About Abs and put it into a format where I could track my performance for each workout.

Each exercise is already filled in, so I didn't have to remember which exercise to do. And the workout tracking sheets are synchronized with the MP3 files above to keep my workout fluid and efficient.

All I had to do was fill in my results.

The funny thing is, I didn't even believe it myself, but I got stronger each workout when I started tracking my results. I lifted more weight and performed more reps simply because I knew what I did the last workout, and wanted to outdo it. Coincidence? I think not.

So now you know what The Truth About Abs is all about. It is packed with information, but there are 2 major things missing from the program. I put together solutions to fix these problems, which have tremendously helped my workouts. My Truth About Abs workouts are more efficient and effective now, and I am seeing the great results.
