The ab exercise that's a total waste of time

I was at a poker party up in North Jersey over the weekend at a
friend's house. My friend had moved into this beautiful new
home about a year ago, but I had never made it up for a visit
until this weekend.

Well, as they were giving us a tour of the house, we took a peek
into one of their spare rooms which wasn't being used for
anything. The only thing they had in this room was one of those
infomercial "ab loungers" covered in dust... you know, the
ab-chair looking thingy that they hawk on the infomercials as
being the end-all solution to a flabby stomach... telling you
that you can get a flat stomach and perfect abs just by sitting
on this thing and rocking a little bit while you lazily watch
tv.

The cleverly marketed infomercials for these products lure you
in by showing you the ripped sexy midsections of the male and
female fitness models that they hired for the show (who have
never actually used these gadgets themselves...they actually got
their toned near-perfection bodies through following REAL
workouts and strict nutrition!)

Well, since this "ab lounger" was sitting in this vacant room
getting dusty, obviously it wasn't actually being used, so it
was really a waste of their money that they spent on it.

Regardless, even if it was being used regularly, it would never
have given my friends the results they were looking for, because
these infomercial ab gadgets (and all ab exercises for that
matter), don't accomplish the most important aspect of truly
achieving flat six pack abs...

THEY DON'T STIMULATE ANY FAT LOSS AT ALL!

And worse yet, just for kicks, I jumped on this "ab lounger" and
gave it a try... I have to say, I've never done any abs exercise
where I felt it LESS in my abs... As a matter of fact, this
piece of crap lounger didn't even feel like it was making my abs
work at all!

It felt more like a lounge chair I should be using to relax with
a beer at a barbeque.

My point of this story is that there are still thousands of
people every day that fall for these gimmicks and waste their
hard-earned money on every ab-gimmick that comes out next.

So what does it REALLY take to get flat sexy six pack abs?

1. It takes some commitment to doing REAL workouts... full-body
multi-joint workouts using strategic combinations of the most
effective exercises for stimulating the release of fat burning
hormones in your body and increasing your metabolic rate to new
levels.

2. It takes introducing yourself to REAL nutrition... not fad
diets, not restrictive starvation, not overly processed "diet"
foods, not bogus "extreme fat loss" pills... but a truly
nutrient-dense natural balanced diet that FEEDS your body with
what it needs instead of starving it.

3. It takes the right success mindset to achieve these goals so
that you can put everything into action and make it a part of
your daily life for good.

Alright, my stomach is growling for my lunch, so I've gotta go.
My "abs-approved" lunch of the day is:

-A grass-fed bison burger topped with mushrooms and grass-fed
cheddar cheese on an Ezekial sprouted grain bun.
-A side salad of baby lettuce, carrot shreds, olive oil &
balsamic dressing and avocado slices
-A glass of lightly raw honey-sweetened iced green tea
