I saw this book on Amazon.com a few months ago and immediately thought it looked interesting, so I decided to read it. It was a quick and easy read and I liked it a lot so I decided I would review it for you. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to understand what causes us to get fat and how to overcome it.

Meet The Author: Jackie Warner

I can’t really put one specific label on Jackie Warner as she is/does a lot of things. As it relates to this book, the most important thing to know is that she is a fitness expert. She is also a gym owner, has her own television show, and is an all around entrepreneur. Beyond writing books, she has also made a few exercise videos.

What’s In The Book?

The book is divided into four parts:

Part 1 – This Is Why You’re Fat

In this section, Jackie talks about all the things that contribute to making you fat. She talks a lot about sugar and the way it effects various chemical processes in the body. She also talks about different organs in the body and how they play a part in making you fat or skinny.

Part 2 – This Is How You Eat To Get Hot And Healthy

In this section, you will learn all about Jackie’s approach to eating healthy. Her approach is different than most other diets. In fact, I’m not even sure you would call it a diet. She calls it a food plan.

One interesting part of this section is Jackie Warner’s 2-Week Jump Start. During the first two weeks of her program, all you worry about is making sure you are eating certain foods. You don’t have to stop eating anything you are currently eating or control yourself in any other way. All you have to do it is add in the foods on her list if you aren’t already eating them. It’s kind of like the opposite of a “diet.”

Part 3 – This Is How You Exercise To Get Hot And Healthy

Here is where you will learn all about the Jackie Warner exercise program. Just like the previous section, this section starts with a two week jump start. All you do during these two weeks is a 20 minute cardio routine five days a week. She even gives you six different routines to choose from so there is something for everyone.

After the two week intro, she will take you through her Power Circuits. This is Jackie Warner’s personal approach to circuit training. The best way to burn fat is to build muscle and this is the approach that Jackie takes. She focuses on strength training, but all of the exercises use only body weight or a small dumbbell.

Part 4 – This Is How You Stay Hot And Healthy

In this last section, Jackie focuses on getting your mind right. You may not believe it, but so much of physical fitness is in the mind. If you can’t get your mind right, you will never get the results you want. Jackie will take you through getting in the right mindset to stay thin for the rest of you life.

After Part 4, there are several appendices with some very useful resources. She includes several meal plans and recipes, a sample food journal, and a sample training log.

Why I Like This Book

There are several reasons why I think this is a great book. First of all, it is in line with my exercise and weight loss philosophy, so I know that the things she is saying are correct. Secondly, I like her writing style. As I said earlier, it is an easy read. I also like the layout of the book. The way Jackie takes you through it is very logical. The four parts of the book do a great job of taking you from beginning to end. She tells you why you’re fat, how to get skinny, and then how to stay skinny. It feels very complete.

Some other great things about this book are the meal plans and exercise routines. Jackie gives you great examples of what to eat and even gives you recipes you can follow. For the exercises, each one is illustrated by Jackie making it really easy to follow.

Last of all, the best thing about this book is Jackie’s program. Of all the weight loss programs out there, this one is really easy to follow. The meal plan isn’t too difficult and the exercises are rather simple. All you have to do is read it and do what it says.

Why I Don’t Like This Book

I don’t have many negative things to say about his book, however I will point out a couple things. First of all, this book was written by a woman for women. Throughout the book, Jackie makes it obvious that this book is for women by discussing things that are specific to the female body. This isn’t necessarily a negative (especially if you are a woman) but it does mean that certain parts of the book just won’t pertain to men. That being said, there is nothing about Jackie’s plan that doesn’t apply equally to men and women. I still recommend this book for men. They just need to gloss over the parts where she talks about breasts or getting a tone butt and legs so you will be attractive to men.

The only other complaint I have is with the Power Circuit routines. The routines are good, but there were a couple of things that weren’t immediately obvious to me when I read them. I had to take a minute to make sure I really understood how to complete the circuits. It wasn’t a big deal, but I thought the explanation could have been a little clearer.

Why You Should Own This Book

If you have struggled to lose weight, this book is for you. Jackie takes a different approach to weight loss because she knows how difficult it can be to stick with a diet and exercise routine. Her emphasis is on making her plan easy to follow and easy to stick with.

If you eat like most people eat, then this book is for you. So many of the things we are used to eating are responsible for making us fat. Even some of the foods that you think are healthy are actually contributing to making you fat. This book will educate you on exactly how you should be eating to get and stay thin forever.

If you have been doing countless hours of cardio with little to no results, this book is for you. Traditional cardio is not the answer to weight loss. You need to change the way you exercise to maximize your fat burning potential and this book will teach you how to do it.

To Sum It Up

This Is Why You’re Fat by Jackie Warner is a great book for anyone who wants to lose weight and keep it off forever. Everything you need is contained within this book. If you are ready to make a positive change in your life then you should definitely check out this book.

I know that most of my posts about how to get six pack abs involve losing fat, but some of you may not need to lose any fat. Maybe you have the opposite problem, you are too skinny and can’t build muscle. A lot of guys have this problem and it can be very frustrating.

Part of the reason that it is so difficult to build muscle is that there is so much misinformation circulating around the fitness world. When you look through the muscle magazines or browse the internet, all you see are these mammoth dudes whose mother’s probably put steroids in their bottles from the time they were newborns. All of the advice in these magazines is for these huge guys and has little relevance to you.

What you need is advice from a formerly skinny guy who has unlocked the secrets to packing on solid muscle mass. The expert in this field is Vince DelMonte. He is a former stick-thin distance runner who couldn’t gain muscle to save his life. He finally met a guy whom he calls the “Skinny Guy Savior” who taught him the right way to build muscle. Since then, Vince has transformed his body and now shares his knowledge with other skinny guys who are struggling to build muscle. It is a pretty interesting story and you can watch a video about it here.

Vince has a system that teaches skinny guys how to pack on muscle mass. The system is called No-Nonsense Muscle Building. If you’ve never checked it out before, now is a great time to grab a copy. Vince just started offering a $1 trial of his system. For just one dollar you can check it out and see what you think. You get to try it out for 21 days which should give you plenty of time to decide if you like it.

With the $1 offer, Vince is also giving away a ton of bonuses. He calls it the Hardgainers Success Kit. I won’t list the bonuses here because you can read all about them when you click on the link above. There are 12 bonuses in all and you get some pretty cool and useful stuff. The only catch is that I don’t know how long Vince is going to leave this offer up so you should check it out now.

If you want a flat stomach and awe inspiring six pack abs, you need to know which muscles will give you the look you want. A little education can go a long way in helping you to not waste time on exercises that won’t get you to your goal. If you’ve never studied anatomy or read about the makeup of the abdominal muscles, you may be surprised to learn what goes in to developing washboard abs.

The Different Abdominal Muscles And Their Functions

There are four main muscles that make up your abdominal muscles.

• Rectus Abdominis
• Transversus Abdominis
• Internal Obliques
• External Obliques

The rectus abdominis is the muscle that runs down the middle of the abdomen. It is the muscle that gives you the six pack abs look. Even though it looks like eight individual muscles, it is actually one muscle. The rectus abdominis is responsible for drawing the ribs and the pelvis closer together.

The transversus abdominis runs across your middle section much like a weight belt. This muscle holds your abdomen in. If you want a flat stomach, this is the muscle that will do the trick.

The internal and external obliques work together. Their main function is to rotate the torso and stabilize the abdomen.

Getting To Know Your Abdominal Muscles

Talking about these muscles is helpful, but seeing them really brings it home. Check out the video below to see exactly where these muscles are and what they look like. The video is a little dry with some big anatomical words in it, but I think it is worth watching so you can better understand your abdominal muscles. If you want to build great six pack abs, you need to know which muscles to work on. Just ignore all the big words and focus on learning the location and function of the rectus abdominis, transversus abdominis, internal obliques, and external obliques.

How To Strengthen Your Abdominal Muscles

Knowing where your abdominal muscles are located and what they do will only get you so far. To get a flat stomach and a perfect six pack, you must learn the right way to build and expose these muscles. To date, one of the best programs I have found for teaching these principles is The Truth About Six Pack Abs. It is a must read for anybody who is serious about getting a flat stomach and amazing six pack abs.
