The Truth About Abs

I have been promoting The Truth About Six Pack Abs on my brothers recommendation for some time now. One of my readers emailed me asking

“I am very much interested in losing weight. I read your blog everyday and find the tips useful. However I want to have a diet plan and established system for weight loss. I have tried many products but none has worked for me till now. Can you recommend me a good weight loss guide? I see the truth about abs promoted on your site. Are they any good? Have you had any hands on experience?”

I emailed back the reader about how I reviewed the same product for one of my online consulting clients (Not a blog reader, one whom I took yoga for when they came to India. They contacted me on their return to Australia and wanted me to provide them with custom diet consultation. If I had this blog before, I could have easily guided people like them to my site and not have to answer them individually.)

The following day, I got another email asking almost the same thing. So I thought why not write down my reviews. I called up my review members who were there with me in the past to review the product and collected the facts from them about the truth about six pack abs.

The actual problem

The problem with many people looking to lose weight or those who want to develop a six pack abs is that they do not realize the truth. Most people have been scammed over and over again by fad diets and products offering size zero shape with little or no effort. People reply on diet pills, protein shakes and other wonder drugs without giving the thought to the two most critical components of bodybuilding

  • Diet
  • Exercise

Remember. There is no magic formula or real secrets to get those six pack abs without hard work. If you see anyone making such claims, run!!! Only hard work will give you the fruit.

What is The Truth About Six Pack Abs?

The truth about six pack abs by Mike D Geary is an information product on how to get a six pack abs. the website claims to be providing a real time solution to getting the ultimate sexy look for your abs. in his website, Mike claims the following

  • No more crunch ups or sit ups (Boy am I relieved if it’s true).
  • No more bogus “fat burning pills”. (Bang on target. I wouldn’t care less if you had such a product on offer)
  • No more useless ab-belts or gadgets. (I still wonder how many people fall for these stuff. I get to see a lot of such products advertised on TV these days. Talk about using human emotions to make sales!!!)
  • No more long boring cardio workouts. (My friend Rahul, who’s been into bodybuilding, tells about how he hates cardio when I asked him the opinion about this point. Also our review team members agree on this matter).
  • No more scams (You better be talking the truth here. There are far too many fad diets and scams out there which make me yell out, OMG, are people insane to give such horrible untrue advice?).

Our team for The Truth About Six Pack Abs review

Much like a normal review is conducted; we have included 5 people in our review team.

  • A doctor to verify the claims he makes in the book
  • 3 bodybuilders with various levels of expertise in bodybuilding. One of our review members has around 10 years experience in bodybuilding, another has around 5 years and the last on our list of bodybuilders has around just 3 months experience. We included all levels of bodybuilders in order to collect feedback and recommendations which will help us realize how the book serves the different kinds of people.
  • A lady with no knowledge of any health information. This ensures how well this is suited for newbie’s who wants to get six pack abs.

The first step in reviewing The Truth About Six Pack Abs.

six pack absActually my brother bought this ebook for his purpose and while I was talking with him, he suggested that I recommend this to my readers.  So I went over and got myself a copy from the official site www.truthaboutabs.com. My first impression on seeing the site was that it did not overpromise on anything. I have too many products which my readers/ patients ask to review and I get to see like “Who wants to lose 10 kg in 1 hour with no exercise, no this that etc…” Well one of the product I actually reviewed for my online consultation client was outright rubbish. The fundamentals of nutrition are being depicted wrongly in that ebook.  In almost every book I read, I get crap and more crap. Either the information is so outdated that maybe the oldest myths you have about losing weight maybe represented as the honest facts or news breaking findings. With all my experience of coming across books that claim to teach you to get ribbed abs, I decided to review the truth about six pack abs program.

How the review of The Truth About Six Pack Abs was conducted?

All the review panel members would sit together in a round table with a coffee in our hand (Are we coffee addicts or what!!!). One of the members would read out one portion loud. We would all listen to it and at the end of the session jot down what we understood. We would then brainstorm what we understood from the truth about six pack abs program and come to a conclusion about the usefulness and truthfulness of the program. Finally we ask everyone to give marks out of 5 and tell if this section is recommended or not. We then average the marks given and round it off to the nearest multiples of 0.5.

We couldn’t stop there can we? It’s not just the usefulness of the product information that matters. We need to know if those really work. So we gave time (around 3 months) for implementing the strategies present in the book. It was not easy as our review members had to go out of their normal routine. But it was necessary to provide a truthful review of the truth about six pack abs.
