The best diet program for getting abs (WORKS)

So, who doesn't want to get rid of that unwanted belly fat ? I'm sure everybody wants to get rid of it. It's so annoying, so uncomfortable. Specially when you go to the beach and see some hot looking girls in their bikinnies with a completely flat stomach and no belly fat in it. OR you see that handsome guy all muscular with his ripped abs showing off. Don't you wish you looked like them. Like honestly, ask yourself that question, wouldn't you want that confidence of showing off your abdomen because you know you look great ?


 It's not a matter of being envious of other people that have a flat belly, it's a matter of looking and feeling better. Knowing that you look good and having the confidence to show off because you know you look awesome. The bad thing is that it's honestly very hard to achieve a flat stomach and get those abs showing. There's lots of factors that cause Stomach fat. Factors that sometimes we can't avoid such as stress,genetics,chemicals in our food, bad nutrition, lack of exercise,lack of sleep, etc. If you don't have the perfect well balanced diet and don't get enough exercise, how are you expecting to have abs when you do all the opposite stuff you're supposed to do to have abs ? In other words, if you don't do what you're supposed to do to have abs, you won't have abs. But what exactly are you supposed to do to have abs?Well in general your body should have less than 14% in body fat to be able to get those abs showing. It's difficult.

No one said it was easy, but just because it's hard doesn't mean it's impossible. With a bit of motivation and guidance it's not that hard after all to get the body you've always dreamed of. That's why there now exists numerous diet programs created specifically for those that are struggling with that unwanted body and belly fat. But how do you know which one is the best among them all ? After having done research on this subject., I have found out that The Truth About ABS is one of the best diet programs there is for achieving that six pack you've always wanted. You get the results you want and the best part is that it actually works in the shortest of time. No kidding. You can see the testimonials HERE from real people just like you.

You won't have to do any more crunches or situps and no more long cardio workouts that don't give any results at all ! We're all tired of that, of getting promises and promises and at the end knowing it was just a scam. If you're looking for a magic pill that requires no effort at all for those dreamed abs, I'm sorry to say, you're in the wrong place. More than effort, this program requires motivation and inspiration. Mike Geary's program will give you that motivation and that inspiration you need to get that six pack you want.


Too much talking. Enough. What exactly is the truth about six pack about ? Well, first of all, The truth about abs comes in easy to read pdf guides and some other pdf  ebooks that complete the main program. Plus you get access to updates and the core program. It tells you exactly what foods you are supposed to eat to burn belly fat and which are the bad ones that produce belly fat. You also get healthy meal plans and much more stuff. Don't get fooled by diets and programs that don't work. If you want a program that really works, this is perfect for you. It doesn't require any expensive gym memberships and as I said before, it doesn't require you to kill yourself in long cardio workouts.

Do abs machines like the ab rocket work ?

Who hasn't seen those abs commercials that come out on t.v promising to give you the abs you've always wanted? Well, at least I have like about fifty times already. They make all sorts of machines that promise to give you ripped abs. People that are desperate to get in shape buy these ab machines hoping to lose weight and get that dreamed six pack but then get disappointed when they see no results. Don't let yourself get fooled. If you are thinking about buying any ab machine, stop right there and finish reading this so you can know the real truth about these "miracle ab machines".

If you're totally out of shape and you plan on buying an ab machine, first you should know that  ab machines will work only if you are already doing it along with some kind of other work out like cardio, weight training or if you do sports for example. These machines aren't enough by themselves and they won't get your whole body ripped like the models that come out on t.v. These machines are designed to work out just your abdominal section and won't make you burn enough fat to get that lean and sexy body you want. So before you buy one of these ab machines, make sure you are following a well balanced healthy diet and at least you're cardio training.

If you're already skinny,lean and have a low percentage of body fat, ab machines will work for you because it's easier for your abdominal muscles to show but these ab machines by themselves will NOT make you buff/ muscular. In order to get buff you need to do weight training. And the disadvantage about these ab machines is that there's repetition to a certain movement so you'll only be working part of your abdominal area. I say it's much better to different kind of ab exercises without using any machine. They're even more effective and you save time and money instead of doing the same boring workout on any ab machine.

Sit ups and crunches are the most ineffective thing you can do to have abs

Sit ups and crunches are the most ineffective thing you can do to get crunches. Yep that's right. If you want to get defined abs, the last thing you can do are crunches and sit ups. Probably you've heard the phrase "abs are made in the kitchen". Well this phrase is absolutely true. What you eat and how you eat defines whether you have abs or not. The truth is everyone has abs but you can't see them because they're covered by a layer of fat. So in order to get those abs showing you need to get rid of that belly fat. How do you do that ?

There's a lot of things you can do to get rid of belly fat.  One of them is working out.
But what kind of work outs are good for  burning fat ? The most effective work outs are those in which weight training is done first and cardio is done after. The explanation to this is because weight training burns more fat than cardio so it's much better if you do your weight training first because you'll be burning more fat than if you do cardio first and weight training after.If you don't have enough time for long split workouts , another option you have is doing interval training. I'm not going to go into details about interval training.You can look it up on google or even on youtube. They have great work outs right there and they're better because they're shorter and much more efficient than traditional work outs.

Another thing you can do to get rid of belly fat is eating foods that burn fat such as avocados, bananas,yogurt,lettuce,chilis,yogurt, berries and etc. There's a lot of foods, fruits and vegetables that burn fat. I myself love making natural pineapple juice because it burns a lot of fat. You can look up fat burning foods and recipes on google. There's a whole bunch of them. Try to make your calorie consumption from veggies as much as possible if your goal is to get lean.

Sleep also burns fat, it's been scientifically proved. So make sure you're getting enough sleep if your goal is losing fat and getting lean. Also try to avoid stress. Stress releases fat cells into your body and always, always have your meals on time because if you don't fat cells will also be released into your body.The last thing you want to do to get abs are sit ups and crunches.
It's pointless to do hundreds and hundreds of crunches and sit ups if your body fat levels aren't low enough for them to show. That's why it's very important to the things i mentioned above if your goal is getting abs.

The Truth about Abs by Mike Geary

So I just finished reading the book "The Truth about ABS" by Mike Geary and I have to say the book is just fantastic and it's the best book I've ever read about six pack abs. It provides detailed information on what exactly you have to do to have the abs you've always wanted. It has a bunch of workouts as well as lists of what foods are good ones and which are the bad ones. I've read tons of books on nutrition and fitness and this has been the best one so far. I truly recommend it to everyone that's reading this. I checked it out from the library but after having read it I wanted to keep it so I decided to buy it off amazon. Even if you're an expert on fitness or a beginner, read it, you're going to be amazed on how accurate and detailed all the information is .

Easy satisfying and delicious oatmeal and apple milkshake

   When I'm hungry at night, I always try to stay full and not overeat because at night it's  easier for the  food that one eats to turn into body fat,, so what I always do around 8:00 p.m, is prepare myself a satisfying oatmeal and aipple milkshake.With this milkshake you will  feel satisfied and full for the rest of the night so you won't have to overeat and feel like you're starving.

Here are the ingredients for this simple milkshake

Ingredients :


1 sliced apple green or red, it's up to you

3/4 a glass of milk (preferrably 0% or 1% low fat milk)

1/2 a cup of natural plain oameal

Put all three ingredients in a blender and  let it blend until it has a milkshake like texture and the oatmeal has fully blended. No sugar is needed because the sugar from the apple is enough to sweeten the milkshake. That's it!  You can now drink your milkshake. I hope you enjoy it !.If you really try this out please comment and say how you think it was. It's actually pretty yummy and is a great night meal substituter :P

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day !

Breakfast has always been and will always be the most important meal of the day. But why ? Simply because breakfast is the meal that gives you energy to start off your day. You wake up on an empty stomach, feeling all tired and sleepy, starting a new day . But if you don't fuel your body the way you should , you're going to feel tired all day long and won't have energy during the day .
If you want to lose weight and you think skipping breakfast is the right thing to do , you're wrong. Skipping breakfast will only unbalance and slow down your metabolism and instead of losing weight, you will gain weight because skipping meals ,specially breakfast,  is one of the worst things you can do !You will eat in bigger portions during the rest of the day, so it's much better to eat a lot in the morning and then eat smaller meals during the day.
So now you know. Always eat your breakfast no matter what !
