Fitness expert Shawn Phillips says it's time to forget fad diets, miracle pills, and trendy exercise machinery-it's time to get back to basics. It's time to accept the fact that if you want to build a lean, healthy, muscular body, complete with a defined set of abs, you're going to have to work for it. However, he points out that hard work and dedication alone are not enough to produce the results most people are looking for-you have to follow an intelligent plan. And, unfortunately, in today's world of over-hyped and under-performing "quick fixes" for building better abs, finding a voice of reason has become a real challenge. The good news is there is a solution-a practical solution for building your best abs. And that solution is clearly revealed in the book you have at your fingertips right now. ABSolution incorporates the many lessons Shawn Phillips has learned through his own pursuit of building a better body, which has spanned some 20 years. It also incorporates his countless hours of scientific research and real-world experience gained by helping numerous world-class athletes and people from all walks of life successfully reach their fitness goals. ABSolution is not a quick-fix, nor is it a "simple and easy" way to get in great shape. It's an effective, scientifically safe and sound approach. And it's common-sense approach in a fitness industry where common sense is not common at all. Through ABSolution, Shawn Phillips will teach you... * How to not just flatten but define and separate the abdominal muscles, creating that coveted "six-pack" look. * Why he refuses to "diet" and why he urges you to do the same. * The truth about spot reduction of fat and why this myth is at the root of millions of fitness failures. * Why doing hundreds, even thousands, of sit-ups doesn't guarantee you a set of sculpted abs and may actually do more harm than good. * How to turn ordinary aerobics into a powerful fat-burning and ab-defining exercise. * Precisely which foods you should and shouldn't eat, as well as the most important time each day to start feeding your body and when to stop. * Exactly which supplements will and won't help you build muscle, burn fat, and improve your health. * The truth, backed by scientific studies, about which ab exercise devices and machines really work and which ones don't. * Important facts about liposuction, the most popular surgical procedure in America today, and its true risks. * How to determine if you're exercising too much or not enough, and why getting it "just right" can be the difference between rapid, satisfying progress and a frustrating lack of results. Armed with the information in this book, you'll be able to move forward with renewed clarity, commitment, and confidence. Shawn Phillips' comprehensive plan will put you on the right path-a journey that does require your hard work and dedication but one which will absolutely, positively help you lose fat, build muscle definition, and sculpt your own absolutely fantastic abs.
