Truth About Abs
Below is an article contributed by
Mike Geary, the founder of TruthAboutAbs. I
thought this was an important topic to share with you because the
reality is that most people simply don't realize how dangerous their
excess abdominal fat really is to their health.
The Hidden Dangers of Your Excess Abdominal Fat - It's More Serious Than a Vanity Issue!
by Mike Geary, Certified Nutrition Specialist, Certified Personal Trainer
Did you know that the vast majority
of people in this day and age have excess abdominal fat? The first
thing that most people think of is that their extra abdominal fat is
simply ugly, is covering up their abs from being visible, and makes them
self conscious about showing off their body.
However, what most people don't
realize is that excess abdominal fat in particular, is not only ugly,
but is also a dangerous risk factor to your health. Scientific research
has clearly demonstrated that although it is unhealthy in general to
have excess body fat throughout your body, it is also particularly
dangerous to have excess abdominal fat.
There are two types of fat that you
have in your abdominal area. The first type that covers up your abs
from being visible is called subcutaneous fat and lies directly beneath
the skin and on top of the abdominal muscles.
The second type of fat that you
have in your abdominal area is called visceral fat, and that lies deeper
in the abdomen beneath your muscle and surrounding your organs.
Visceral fat also plays a role in giving certain men that "beer belly"
appearance where their abdomen protrudes excessively but at the same
time, also feels sort of hard if you push on it.
Both subcutaneous fat and visceral
fat in the abdominal area are serious health risk factors, but science
has shown that having excessive visceral fat is even more dangerous than
subcutaneous fat. Both of them greatly increase the risk your risk of
developing heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, sleep
apnea, various forms of cancer, and other degenerative diseases.
Part of the reason visceral fat is
particularly dangerous is that it apparently releases more inflammatory
molecules into your body on a consistent basis.
If you care about the quality of
your life and your loved ones, reducing your abdominal fat should be one
of your TOP priorities! There's just no way around it. Besides, a
side-effect of finally getting rid of all of that excessive ugly
abdominal fat is that your stomach will flatten out, and if you lose
enough stomach fat, you will be able to visibly see those sexy six pack
abs that everyone wants.
So what gets rid of extra abdominal
fat? Is there actually a REAL solution beyond all of the gimmicks and
hype that you see in ads and on commercials for "miracle" fat loss
products?
The first thing you must understand
is that there is absolutely NO quick fix solution. There are no pills
or supplements of any sort that will help you lose your abdominal fat
faster. Also, none of the gimmicky ab rockers, rollers, or ab belts will
help get rid of abdominal fat either. You can't spot reduce your
stomach fat by using any of these worthless contraptions. It simply
doesn't work that way.
The ONLY solution to consistently
lose your abdominal fat and keep it off for good is to combine a sound
nutritious diet full of unprocessed natural foods with a properly
designed strategic exercise program that stimulates the necessary
hormonal and metabolic response within your body. Both your food intake
as well as your training program are important if you are to get this
right.
I've actually even seen a
particular study that divided thousands of participants into a diet-only
group and an exercise/diet group. While both groups in this study made
good progress, the diet-only group lost significantly LESS abdominal fat
than the diet & exercise combined group.
Now the important thing to realize
is that just any old exercise program will not necessarily do the trick.
The majority of people that attempt getting into a good exercise
routine are NOT working out effectively enough to really stimulate the
loss of stubborn abdominal fat. I see this everyday at the gym.
Most people will do your typical
boring ineffective cardio routines, throw in a little outdated body-part
style weight training, and pump away with some crunches and side bends,
and think that they are doing something useful for reducing their
abdominal fat. Then they become frustrated after weeks or months of no
results and wonder where they went wrong.
Well, the good news is that I've
spent over a decade researching this topic, analyzing the science, and
applying it "in the trenches" with myself as well as thousands of my
clients from all over the world to see what works to really stimulate
abdominal fat loss.
The entire solution... all of the
nutritional strategies, as well as training sequences, exercise
combinations, and more have all been compiled in my Truth About Six Pack
Abs Program.
Keep in mind that the point of this whole program is NOT abdominal exercises (that is only a very small portion of it). The main point of this program is showing you the absolute most effective strategies for losing your stubborn abdominal fat, so you can get rid of that dangerous health risk, as well as get a flatter more defined midsection.

If you follow the guidelines, you
WILL lose your belly fat that has been plaguing you for years. This is
not guesswork... it is a proven system that works time and time again
for all of my clients on every corner of the globe that actually apply
the information I teach. If you apply it, the results will come. It's
really that simple.
The only reason most people fail in
their fitness goals is that they have good intentions at first to adopt
a new lifestyle, yet after a few weeks or months, they abandon their
good intentions and slip right back into their old bad habits that gave
them the excess body fat in the first place.
I want to help you succeed in finally getting rid of that extra abdominal fat that is not only UGLY, but also DANGEROUS.
Don't waste another day allowing
that nasty abdominal fat to kill your confidence as well as contribute
to your risk for MAJOR diseases.
