Do those miracle abs exercise machines really work?

You know the promises 'Great Abs Just by Training Five Minutes Per Day Three Times Per Week'

Is it really possible?

Here's what Victoria Johnson, fitness expert and author has to say:

Great Abs Just by Training Five Minutes Per Day Three Times Per Week....NOT HARDLY!

But that's what the makers of the new Ab machines would have you believe.

Do you honestly think you can get tight washboard abs training them on that fantasy workout schedule? If you believe that, I have some land I can sell you in Florida Swamps that's prime real Estate too!

With all the Hype about getting astronomical results with little to no labor, it's no wonder Ab rolling, training and coaching machines are selling by the truckloads. Poor unfit consumers are desperately looking for a quick fix for something that took years of ice cream and fudge brownies to create. You didn't gain that spare semi tire around your waist with little or no effort. Therefore, you will not lose it overnight. If not done properly, you may even injure yourself.

An important training element that is usually overlooked by many of the programs is "muscle balance". To prevent back injuries you must strengthen your lower back as well as your abdominals. Always work the front and back of your body evenly. An example would be, If you train the front of your arms, make sure you train the back. Bicep curls work the font of your arms, Tricep Press Downs work the back of your arms. This will ensure a balance in strength and development.

To help you shape up your Abs (for real) I created a balanced workout video that is only $14.95 entitled Ab Lab, the Science of Reshaping Your Midsection. I understand what it takes to get a flat midsection. I used to weigh over 170 pounds and was over 32% body fat!

I designed a program that will help you get tight Abdominals without using one piece of exercise equipment. You can do it easily and quickly right where you are. So what are you waiting for? Get on the floor.

Regardless of the body part or exercises you perform always practice muscle isolation.

Muscle Isolation - Always put your energy into the muscle you're working.

Your exercises will be even more effective.
