Most programs that promise to make you look like models or bodybuilders are completely worthless. They will either involve special pills that are supposed to increase muscle growth or they’ll be based on erroneous science and faulty observations. In almost every case, these “miracle” pills simply don’t do anything beneficial for the body. In the few cases where there are noticeable results, the pills often include steroids, making them incredibly bad for the body in the long run. Studies have shown that steroids can lead to total failure of major organs such as the kidneys and liver. They also lead to muscle problems later on in life. A new program though, called the Truth About Abs, has received extraordinarily positive feedback, not just from normal consumers, but also from nutritionists, doctors, and other medical professionals in related fields. This Truth about Abs review will be no different. It will focus primarily on the positive aspects of the program.

Mike Geary’s program works because it’s based on how the human anatomy actually works, rather than how many say it should. Most of the program is based on increasing the customer’s metabolic rate. A fast metabolism aids the customer’s efforts to lose body fat and, in turn, develop picture perfect abs. In his book, Geary explains that building lean muscle and eating the right foods can quickly push this rate higher. That means crash diets are absolutely forbidden. If you take in too few calories, your body will think you’re starving and lower your metabolic rate, exactly the opposite of what you want to do. Geary does an excellent job with explaining which kinds of foods you need to eat, and a few locations that carry these foods. Most especially, he urges the consumption of naturally prepared food, and avoiding processed foods at all cost.

After this, Geary switches gears to focus on the abs themselves. He goes completely against popular opinion, stating that cardio exercises won’t help you gain those abs you so desperately crave. Similarly, exercises that focus only on the abdominal muscles should only be done sparingly. Over-exercising can actually hinder your efforts to building abs, so he suggests you cut your exercise to about an hour each day for three to four days a week. This is because muscle growth is caused by the breakdown and subsequent repairing of muscles. When you exercise, especially with anaerobic exercises, you break down some muscle tissue. While you rest after this exertion, the muscle repairs itself, and actually grows slightly. This has been proven by doctors, and the results are rather frequent with followers of the program. By combining all of these things, Geary’s program leads to phenomenal results in a fraction of the time it would take with comparable programs on the market.
