Go online, this e-book is everywhere. There are rave reviews about it, it is advertised on thousands of fitness sites claiming that it is the most stunningly effective fat loss book you can read. The Author, Mike Geary, is a highly respected trainer and fitness expert with people constantly asking for his advice. “I want to get six-pack abs!!” is the message, and Mike answers with this book. “The Truth About Six Pack Abs” is the highest selling fitness e-book on the internet (selling well over 500,000 copies to date), but does that mean anything? Is the hype something to ignore or is this the real deal? Well I went out and bought a copy of the book to answer those questions, and this is what I’ve uncovered.
The Author
So Mike Geary is highly respected in the fitness industry, as I said before “The Truth About Six Pack Abs” has sold more copies than any other ebook on the internet. This is because of Mike’s reputation. Mike is the first to admit he’s “not the most ripped person out there…I’ll also never be a professional bodybuilder or fitness model” (despite the clearly defined abdominals you can see pictured left), but he is highly sought after and his knowledge has put his name with the biggest in the industry. Muscle and Fitness magazine hire him to write fat loss articles, Oxegen Magazine have also thrown money at him for his talents, as well as numerous radio interviews.
His knowledge started growing when he earned is Bachelors of Science degree from Susquehanna University in Selinsgrove, PA, he has qualifications in personal training and specialises in fat loss. He has since started several business based around this passion to be consistently ripped. He runs a website called busymanfitness.com and has a highly popular fitness newsletter. Writing a book that covers the most effective information in fat loss was the next step, and it has made him a big name in fitness.

How easy is the book to follow?
Upon reading the The Truth about Six Pack Abs I was impressed by not just what information Mike offered, but how he delivers it. Mike doesn’t beat around the bush, the information is straight forward and easy to follow. Mike puts the facts together so that anyone can understand it, and although any beginner can pick up this book and grasp the concepts Mike explains within it, it is not without the advanced strategies and methods that any expert could benefit from. The bulk of the information is broken up into two sections.
Number 1 - The facts on exercise, how to structure your training, what exercises are good to perform, and how to perform them.
Number 2 – Nutrition. Everything from meal frequency, to what types of food to eat, which foods to avoid, and the highly valuable information – which foods actually help to burn fat.
All of this information is then summarised for an easy plan of attack, backed up by examples and sample plans. The attention to detail within the book is a product of highly effective writing and extensive knowledge – this guy knows his stuff.
Results – does the information work?
The Truth About Six Pack Abs has a good track record, with thousands of customers thanking Mike for helping to change their lives as well as their bodies. You can catch a glimpse of this by looking at successful transformations and testimonials on the offical site. This is undeniable proof that the system is working for people. It’s simple – facts. Mike’s knowledge comes from years of research into the facts, he simply arranges them so they’re easy to understand, and structures them into a plan that shreds fat. When you can understand these facts easily, you take action and your body reacts appropriately. I’ve personally used some of this info on my routines and can say that it has made a difference in my progress.

Final Thoughts
This book definitely delivers but like every book out there, it isn’t perfect. The main complaint you may hear about it is that it requires access to weight lifting equipment to perform most of the exercises, but in reality a gym really is the best place to perform this kind of exercise. The idea is to grow/maintain muscle mass to keep your metabolism running high, and although the range of equipment is heavily based on weights, Mike shows you how to use these particular tools to maximum efficiency and doesn’t confuse the matter by spreading it too thin. He gives you a simple plan of attack (flexible to your own requirements), and tips on how to execute it.
Exercises aside, the real gem is the nutrition info. Your body’s fat levels are a balance of exercise and food, and food accounts for a good 90% of that balance. Chances are if you’ve ever had trouble leaning up, it’s because of poor nutrition. This book really explains and breaks down the nutrition & science of fat loss so it’s easy to follow, with solid reasoning to help you not just know what to eat but why.
I conclude my thought on this book saying simply this – If I ever have a question I need answered, this is the book I turn to first, because it worked wonders for me and many others. There’s a good reason why it’s the biggest fitness ebook in the world.
