lesson # 1 abs exercise

Get rid of the fat or you’ll never see your abs, no matter how often you train, no matter how many reps you do or no matter what exercises you do.

LISTEN TO ME:
AB TRAINING DOES NOT BURN FAT OFF YOUR STOMACH!

This is probably the biggest misconception that people have about exercise today and I don't think the general public is EVER going to get it. The myth that ab training burns fat off your abs is so pervasive that I suspect it will never die and simply continue to be passed down from generation to generation.

The truth is, getting six-pack "killer" abs has almost nothing to do with training. It has everything to do with low body fat.

Ironically, I believe the abdominal muscles are quite easy to develop; much, much easier than building an 18 or 19 inch arm, a 315 pound bench, a 400 pound squat, or a wide, V-shaped back, for example.

Some people might argue that I was just blessed with good genetics in the ab department, which may be true, but based on my experience with others who have less favorable genetics, I still believe that developing the abdominal muscles is easy,. The hardest part is getting your body fat low enough for your abs to show.

Most people grossly over train their abs. Training your abs daily or even every other day for hundreds or thousands of reps is totally unnecessary and a complete waste of time.

AB EXERCISES DON'T BURN FAT!!!!!!
