Introduction
I
have
a
confession
to
make.
When
I
told
some
of
my
friends
that
I
planned
to
name
my
online
fitness
course
“Six
Pack
Shortcuts,”
a
few
of
them
actually
laughed
at
the
name.
One
conversation
that
I
remember
particularly
vividly
was
with
my
friend
Alex.
Alex
never
used
to
work
out
in
the
past,
but
at
the
urging
of
a
few
friends
and
myself
he
was
about
to
begin
an
exercise
program.
Here’s
what
our
conversation
went
like:
I
told
him
about
the
Six
Pack
Shortcuts
program,
and
he
loved
it...but
he
wasn’t
too
excited
about
the
name.
“Mike,
you
can’t
call
it
Six
Pack
Shortcuts,”
he
said
indignantly.
“Everyone
knows
that
there
are
no
shortcuts
to
getting
six
pack
abs.
Of
course
everyone
wants
them,
but
the
only
way
to
get
them
is
through
obsessive
dieting,
working
out
constantly,
and
sacrificing
your
lifestyle.
That’s
just
reality.
All
those
‘shortcuts’
that
they
promise
you
on
the
infomercials
are
just
scams.”
“Well,
you’re
right
about
one
thing,”
I
told
him.
“Most
of
the
‘shortcuts’
being
marketed
for
getting
six
pack
abs
ARE
scams.
And
there’s
definitely
no
magic
pill
that
you
can
take
that
gives
you
six
pack
abs
instantly,
with
no
effort.”
“But,”
I
continued,
“From
getting
abs
myself
and
also
from
training
clients
for
so
many
years,
I
know
that
there
ARE
many
real
shortcuts
which
you
can
use
to
get
six
pack
abs
far
faster
than
the
average
guy.
This
is
because
90%
of
the
effort
that
the
average
guy
puts
into
getting
six
pack
abs
is
a
complete
waste.
There
is
so
much
misinformation
out
there,
that
if
you
just
start
doing
the
RIGHT
things
with
your
eating
and
workouts,
you’ll
see
dramatic
results
in
your
abs
in
as
little
as
a
few
months.”
“A
few
MONTHS?!?”
he
asked
incredulously.
“How
can
that
be
possible?
I
know
guys
who
have
been
trying
for
YEARS
to
get
a
six
pack,
and
they
STILL
can’t
see
their
abs.”
“Well,
as
I
said
before
it
basically
comes
down
to
applying
certain
“shortcuts”
to
getting
six
pack
abs
that
most
guys
don’t
know
about.
You
leverage
your
workouts
and
eating
so
that
every
little
bit
of
effort
produces
BIG
results.
This
is
what
we
designed
the
program
around...there
are
over
30
different
shortcuts
that
guys
can
use
to
get
more
results
in
less
time.”
“Can
you
share
a
few
of
them
with
me?”
he
asked?
“Sure.
I
can
give
you
seven
simple
but
VERY
powerful
ones
–
just
by
using
these
you’ll
have
a
big
advantage
over
every
other
guy
trying
to
get
in
shape.

Shortcut
#1:
Cut
The
Ineffective
Forms
Of
Exercise
From
Your
Workout
Routine
“Here’s
a
huge
one,”
I
began.
“I
would
estimate
that
about
90%
of
the
time
that
most
guys
are
spending
doing
exercise
is
essentially
wasted.
Nobody
has
ever
taught
them
the
RIGHT
way
to
work
out
–
so
they
spend
hours
upon
hours
doing
things
that
have
been
scientifically
proven
to
do
almost
nothing
for
your
physique
and
abs.”
“Really?”
Alex
asked.
“Like
what?”
“Well,
the
biggest
time‐waster
in
my
opinion
is
long,
slow,
steady
state
cardio.
Guys
have
been
taught
that
they
must
jog
on
a
treadmill
or
ride
on
a
bike
for
hours
on
end
to
lose
weight
–
but
in
fact,
research
has
proven
that
cardio
is
actually
extremely
ineffective
for
weight
loss.”
“For
example,
if
you
were
to
ride
a
stationary
bike
or
use
an
elliptical
machine
at
a
light
pace
for
an
hour,
you’d
only
burn
about
300
calories.
That’s
about
as
much
calories
as
are
in
a
few
handfuls
of
potato
chips,
or
a
big
glass
of
orange
juice.
And
you’d
have
to
do
it
for
an
HOUR
to
burn
that
much!
Long,
slow
cardio
just
doesn’t
burn
very
many
calories.
It’s
also
incredibly
boring,
and
wears
out
your
body
making
it
harder
for
you
to
do
workouts
that
are
actually
effective.”
“Then
why
do
you
see
so
many
guys
on
treadmills
at
the
gym?”
“It’s
basically
because
nobody
really
knows
what
they’re
doing,
so
everyone
just
plays
‘follow
the
follower.’
Everyone
figures
that
since
long,
slow
cardio
is
so
popular,
it
MUST
be
the
right
way
to
exercise.
After
all,
that
many
people
can’t
possible
be
wrong...right?”
“But
if
you
really
look
at
the
research
–
and
the
history
of
the
fitness
industry
–
you’ll
see
this
‘follow
the
follower’
line
of
reasoning
is
completely
flawed,
and
very
dangerous.
And
you
can
also
verify
this
just
by
looking
around
your
local
gym...
you’ll
see
that
most
of
the
guys
on
treadmills
have
mediocre
or
poor
physiques.”
“Wow...that
will
definitely
save
me
a
lot
of
time
just
knowing
not
to
do
cardio.
Are
there
any
others
like
that
you
can
tell
me
about?”
“Definitely,”
I
replied.
“Have
you
ever
seen
guys
who
do
big
‘circuits’
of
weight
machines,
and
never
touch
the
free
weights?”
“Yeah,”
Alex
said.
“You
mean
to
say
that
these
guys
are
wasting
their
time
too?”

“Well,
not
quite
as
badly
as
the
treadmill
guys.
They
are
at
least
building
some
muscle
from
their
workouts...but
they
could
be
doing
it
much
faster
and
easier
if
they
trained
mainly
with
free
weight
and
body
weight
exercises,
and
used
machines
either
very
sparingly
or
not
at
all.”
“But
the
free
weights
seem
so
hard,”
Alex
objected.
“And
aren’t
barbells
and
stuff
like
that
just
for
meatheads?
I
thought
that
all
smart
guys
knew
that
machines
were
better.”
“Well,
of
course
lifting
free
weights
are
hard
–
if
you’ve
only
trained
with
machines
before.
That’s
because
if
you
train
mainly
with
machines,
you’re
developing
very
little
real
strength.
You
can
lift
an
impressive
looking
stack
of
plates
on
the
machine,
but
you
don’t
develop
the
stabilizing
muscles
required
to
lift
a
real
object
unassisted
by
pulleys
and
cables.
And
what
most
guys
don’t
know
is
that
STABILIZING
and
CONTROLLING
the
weight
is
actually
a
very
important
part
of
the
lift
–
and
with
a
machine
you
are
robbed
of
this
source
of
muscle
gain.”
“Once
you
know
how
to
lift
free
weights
though,
they’re
actually
just
as
easy
as
machines.
You
just
have
to
overcome
that
initial
hump
of
frustration,
where
you’re
lifting
much
less
weight
than
you
think
you
‘should’
be.”
“And
of
course,
lifting
with
free
weights
does
NOT
mean
that
you’re
a
meathead.
If
you
train
with
strict
attention
to
form,
free
weights
are
actually
significantly
safer
than
machines.
You
don’t
have
to
be
like
those
guys
who
toss
heavy
weights
around
with
terrible
form
just
to
impress
other
dudes
in
the
gym
–
you
can
train
with
free
weights
in
a
very
safe
and
scientific
way.”
“Hmm...well
now
I’m
beginning
to
understand.”
Alex
said.
“I’ve
basically
been
training
with
cardio
and
weight
machines
only
up
until
now.
And
you’re
telling
me
I’d
get
results
much
faster
if
I
cut
these
from
my
workout
routine.”
“Right
‐‐
just
by
cutting
those
two
ineffective
forms
of
exercise
out,
and
replacing
them
with
effective
exercises,
you’ll
make
WAY
faster
progress
than
other
guys.
All
of
their
gym
time
will
be
essentially
wasted,
while
you’ll
be
squeezing
the
maximum
possible
muscle
gain
and
fat
loss
out
of
yours.”
“And
cardio
and
weight
machines
are
two
of
the
biggest
culprits,
but
of
course
there
are
many
others
as
well.
You
can
literally
spend
YEARS
on
this
stuff
with
no
results...or
you
can
take
the
‘shortcut’
of
learning
the
RIGHT
stuff,
and
get
results
right
away.”
Shortcut
#2:
Short,
Consistent
Workouts
“Here’s
another
one
that
screwed
me
up
back
when
I
first
started.
I
really
wanted
abs,
so
when
I’d
go
to
the
gym
I
usually
spent
over
an
hour
there
–
and
sometimes
two.
I
figured
the
more
time
I
spent
in
the
gym,
the
faster
my
progress
would
be.”

“But
isn’t
that
true?”
Alex
said.
“I
mean,
I
always
thought
that
guys
with
six
packs
basically
spent
their
lives
in
the
gym.”
“No,
it’s
just
one
of
the
most
pervasive
fitness
myths.
‘Marathon’
workouts
are
actually
not
very
good
for
getting
six
pack
abs
at
all,
for
three
main
reasons.”
“First
of
all,
doing
more
sets
of
exercises
in
the
gym
does
not
necessarily
translate
into
more
muscle.
Most
guys
dramatically
over‐estimate
the
amount
of
stimulus
their
muscles
need
to
grow.
In
fact,
doing
too
many
sets
of
exercise
can
actually
cause
you
to
LOSE
muscle,
because
you
break
them
down
too
much
through
exercise,
and
never
give
them
a
chance
to
recover
and
rebuild
themselves.
I
myself
maintain
my
abs
with
only
30
minute
workouts
–
and
I
also
recommend
that
most
time
a
client
ever
spend
in
the
gym
is
30
minutes.”
“Second,
doing
marathon
workouts
saps
your
intensity.
It’s
just
not
possible
to
go
all‐out
for
two
hours
straight
–
you
begin
going
easy
on
your
lifts,
because
you
have
to
just
to
get
through
such
a
long
workouts.
And
since
intensity
of
effort
is
exercise
more
important
to
muscle
growth
than
volume
of
exercise,
you
end
up
losing
more
than
you
gain.”
“And
finally,
there’s
a
very
important
psychological
reason
why
short
workouts
are
better
–
long
gym
sessions
are
psychologically
grueling,
and
make
it
exponentially
more
likely
you’ll
skip
workouts
or
quit
the
program
altogether.
And
if
there’s
one
thing
that
all
guys
with
abs
have
in
common,
it’s
consistency.
If
you
dread
going
to
the
gym,
this
is
a
major
problem
because
it
will
interfere
with
you
consistently
getting
the
workouts
done.”
“That
makes
a
lot
of
sense,”
Alex
replied
thoughtfully.
Shortcut
#3:
Increase
Your
Metabolism
To
Lose
Weight
“Here’s
another
huge
one.
Everyone
always
tells
you
that
the
only
way
to
lose
weight
is
to
eat
fewer
calories.
But
what
if
I
told
you
that
there
was
a
way
for
you
to
eat
just
as
many
calories
as
you
are
right
now,
or
even
MORE,
and
still
lose
weight?”
“I’d
say
you’re
pulling
my
leg,”
said
Alex.
“Right
–
but
then
look
at
the
way
I
eat
Copyright

Chang
Fitness
SixPackShortcuts.com
myself.
Of
course
I
focus
on
eating
mainly
healthy
foods,
but
you
yourself
know
that
I
consume
a
HUGE
amount
of
food
every
day,
and
far
more
calories
than
the
average
person.”
“That’s
true,”
he
said.
“You
must
have
killed
eight
plates
at
the
buffet
the
other
day!
I’ve
never
seen
anyone
eat
as
much
as
you
before,
and
still
stay
lean.
But
I
always
just
figured
that
was
because
of
your
genetics.”
“Actually,
my
natural
‘natural’
genetics
are
to
be
fat
–
as
you’ve
seen
from
the
pictures
of
me
before
I
started
working
out.
But
the
reason
why
I’m
able
to
stay
lean
is
because
I
apply
this
shortcut
to
weight
loss.”
“Well,
what
is
it?”
Alex
asked
eagerly.
“It’s
simple:
A
person
with
more
lean
body
mass
is
going
to
have
a
higher
metabolism,
because
there
is
more
active
tissue
that
your
body
has
to
expend
energy
to
maintain.
If
you
can
gain
a
significant
amount
of
muscle,
your
metabolism
will
be
significantly
increased.
This
means
you’ll
be
able
to
lose
weight,
even
when
you’re
eating
plenty
of
food.”
“That
makes
a
lot
of
sense,”
Alex
said.
“I
suppose
that’s
why
a
200
lb.
guy
needs
way
more
food
than
a
100
lb.
girl.”
“Right,
same
principle.
If
you
have
170
lbs.
of
lean
mass
on
your
body,
you’ll
be
burning
many
more
calories
than
if
you
only
had
140.”
“But
I
heard
somewhere
that
a
pound
of
muscle
only
increases
your
metabolism
by
6
calories
per
day.
Is
that
true?”
“There
have
been
studies
that
have
found
that,
but
they
are
flawed
because
they
only
take
into
account
your
complete
resting
metabolic
rate.
That
is,
you’d
only
burn
6
more
calories
per
day
if
you
literally
laid
in
bed
and
didn’t
move
a
muscle
all
day.
But
studies
which
factor
in
normal
daily
activity
–
walking
around,
sitting
and
standing,
occasionally
playing
sports,
etc...show
that
the
real
number
of
extra
calories
you
will
burn
per
day
before
factoring
in
your
workouts
is
fifty
calories
per
day,
per
pound
of
extra
muscle.”
“Wow...I
can
see
how
that
makes
a
huge
difference.”
“Right.
That’s
how
I’m
able
to
stay
so
lean,
while
eating
like
a
horse.
It’s
also
really
the
only
sustainable
way
to
stay
lean
–
I
mean,
how
long
can
you
really
starve
yourself
for?
Increasing
your
metabolism
is
just
a
much
better
way
to
lose
weight,
and
a
key
shortcut
to
getting
six
pack
abs.”

Cook
A
Week’s
Worth
Of
Healthy
Food
In
Advance

“What
about
for
your
diet?”
Alex
asked.
“It’s
so
hard
for
me
to
eat
healthy...I’m
always
trying,
but
it
seems
like
I
can
never
really
stick
to
it
consistently.”
“Most
people
can’t,”
I
replied.
“In
fact,
about
95%
of
people
who
try
to
go
on
diets
fail
to
lose
any
weight,
and
actually
end
up
gaining
more
fat
than
they
originally
had
in
the
end.
So
it’s
not
just
you
–
it’s
just
that
we
as
humans
have
very
little
willpower,
which
is
why
most
“conventional
wisdom”
diets
have
95%
failure
rates.”
“So
how
can
I
lose
weight
then?”
“Well,
it’s
pretty
simple
–
I
believe
that
you
can
control
your
behavior
with
pure
willpower
for
about
an
hour
a
week.
After
that,
it
just
doesn’t
work
–
willpower
just
doesn’t
last
that
long.
So
you
need
to
do
something
highly
leveraged
in
that
hour
that
ensures
you’ll
eat
healthy
for
the
rest
of
the
week.”
“What
could
I
possibly
do
in
an
hour
that
ensures
I
eat
healthy
for
a
whole
week?”
“It’s
surprisingly
easy:
just
cook
a
week’s
worth
of
healthy
meals,
and
stock
your
refrigerator
with
them.
This
will
ensure
that
you’ll
eat
healthy
for
a
whole
week.
If
you
don’t,
you’ll
have
to
waste
money
on
food,
plus
you’ll
feel
like
an
idiot
for
cooking
the
food
then
not
eating
it.
Plus,
you’ll
have
a
healthy
meal
in
minutes
anytime
you
want
it
–
you
won’t
eat
unhealthy
food
because
it’s
more
convenient.
Virtually
100%
of
my
clients
eat
healthy
for
a
week
while
doing
this
–
even
the
ones
who
struggled
with
conventional
diets.”
“I
can’t
believe
how
simple
that
is,”
Alex
said.
“But
I
see
exactly
how
it
works.
I
know
that
if
I
spent
the
time
and
money
to
make
a
week’s
worth
of
healthy
food
I’d
definitely
eat
them
–
I’d
feel
like
I
was
crazy
if
I
just
cooked
a
bunch
of
food,
and
threw
it
all
away.”
“Right.
And
this
little
psychological
trick
is
another
important
shortcut
to
getting
a
six
pack
that
most
guys
don’t
know
about.

System
is
built
around.
Of
course,
there’s
much
more
to
it
than
that
–
you
have
to
know
the
right
foods
to
eat,
how
to
prepare
them
so
they
taste
great,
and
you
need
a
system
for
cooking
them
with
minimal
time
and
effort.
But
once
you
learn
this,
you’ll
have
a
massive
advantage
because
it’ll
become
far
easier
for
you
to
eat
clean.”

#5:
FOCUS
–
Only
Learn
One
Or
Two
Key
Habits
At
A
Time
“Here’s
another
big
one,”
I
continued.
“Getting
six
pack
abs
is
mostly
a
matter
of
establishing
good
eating
and
exercise
habits.
In
total,
I
would
say
that
there
are
12
key
habits
that
are
responsible
for
about
90%
of
your
results
in
your
physique.”
“That
sounds
like
a
lot,”
Alex
said.
“How
can
I
learn
all
of
those?”
“It
is
a
lot
–
if
you
do
it
the
way
that
most
‘fitness
gurus’
teach,
and
try
to
learn
all
12
at
once.
The
vast
majority
of
people
who
try
and
do
it
this
way
fail
–
it’s
just
not
possible
to
actually
implement
that
many
changes
in
your
life
at
the
same
time.”
“So
then
how
do
you
do
it?”
he
asked.
“Easy
–
focus
only
on
learning
one,
or
at
the
most
two
key
habits
at
a
time.
Only
move
onto
the
next
ones
once
you
have
the
previous
ones
down
solidly.
Start
with
the
most
important
habit,
then
go
to
the
second
most
important,
and
so
on
until
you’ve
incorporated
all
12
into
your
life.”
“That
sounds
a
lot
easier.”
“Definitely,
because
the
hard
part
about
establishing
good
habits
is
making
the
initial
change.
The
first
few
weeks
are
very
hard,
but
once
it’s
become
your
routine
it’s
very
easy
to
maintain.
This
is
another
key
principle
that
Six
Pack
Shortcuts
is
built
around
–
in
each
phase
of
the
program,
you’ll
be
focusing
on
implementing
one
of
two
key
habits
into
your
life.
This
way,
you
don’t
get
overwhelmed
and
confused,
and
your
chances
of
success
are
far
higher.”

#6:
Use
A
Multi‐Phase
Plan
To
Focus
On
One
Goal
At
A
Time
Alex
looked
at
me
quizzically.
“But
doesn’t
that
make
things
more
complicated?
I
mean,
why
not
just
follow
one
program
the
whole
time
that
will
let
you
achieve
all
your
goals?”

“That’s
actually
a
good
question,
and
it
leads
into
another
key
shortcut
to
getting
six
pack
abs.
And
that
is,
following
a
multi‐phase
plan
does
not
make
things
harder.
It
actually
makes
things
much
EASIER
and
SIMPLER,
because
you
can
focus
on
achieving
one
single
goal
in
each
phase.”
“This
is
HUGE
psychologically,”
I
continued.
“For
example,
it’s
very
hard
to
try
and
both
gain
muscle
and
lose
fat
at
the
same
time.
Because
if
you’re
doing
this,
your
weight
will
essentially
remain
the
same.
Even
if
you’re
making
gains
in
terms
of
body
composition,
you
won’t
be
able
to
see
results
very
quickly
and
dramatically.
You
also
won’t
know
whether
or
not
what
you’re
doing
is
even
working
for
a
few
months.”
“But
if
you
focus
ONLY
on
gaining
muscle,
then
you’ll
know
much
faster.
If
your
lifts
are
going
up,
and
you
see
more
muscle
mass
in
the
mirror
then
what
you’re
doing
is
working.
The
same
with
losing
fat
–
if
your
measurements
and
weight
are
going
down,
but
all
your
lifts
are
staying
the
same
then
you
know
you’re
on
the
right
track.
Trying
to
measure
and
work
on
both
at
the
same
time
is
just
too
hard
and
confusing.”
“There
are
also
important
physical
reasons
why
focusing
on
one
fitness
goal
at
a
time
is
essential.
If
you’re
trying
to
lose
fat,
you
will
have
to
eat
less
than
normal.
You’ll
still
feel
fine,
but
you
probably
won’t
actually
be
able
to
make
gains
in
strength
and
muscle
size.
And
vice
versa.”
“Is
that
why
you
made
Six
Pack
Shortcuts
a
four
phase
plan?”
“Right
–
it
evolved
into
a
four
phase
plan
because
that’s
what
got
the
best
results
for
my
clients
in
the
shortest
time.”
“In
Phase
I,
we
focus
on
building
your
metabolism.
We
show
you
the
exercises
that
pack
on
total
body
muscle.
This
makes
losing
weight
much
easier
in
later
phases,
and
provides
a
solid
base
of
muscle
which
we
can
sculpt
the
fine
details
into
later.”
“In
Phase
II,
we
focus
on
burning
your
belly
fat.
You’ll
get
a
simple
eating
and
exercise
system
that
will
make
you
lose
fat
fast.
Especially
when
coupled
with
your
accelerated
metabolism
we
built
in
Phase
I,
it’s
by
far
the
fastest
and
easiest
way
to
lose
weight.”
“In
Phase
III,
we
focus
on
building
your
core
muscle.
We
show
you
the
total
body
exercises
that
build
a
tastefully
muscular,
“fitness
model”
style
six
pack.
And
THIS
is
also
when
you
get
my
full
arsenal
of
direct
ab
exercises
–
now
that
you’ve
lost
your
belly
fat,
this
is
when
they
really
make
a
difference.”

“An
finally,
in
Phase
IV
we
focus
on
getting
you
a
fully‐defined
six
pack,
and
on
maintaining
your
abs
for
life.
In
the
previous
phase
you
see
ab
definition,
but
in
this
phase
we
put
the
finishing
touches
on
so
that
all
of
your
abs
are
completely
defined.
You’ll
also
learn
how
to
maintain
your
abs
permanently
with
minimal
effort.”
“Ah
–
now
I
see,”
Alex
replied.
“That
way
you
only
have
to
worry
about
progressing
in
one
area
at
a
time,
and
in
the
rest
you
just
have
to
maintain
what
you
already
have.
That
does
make
things
a
lot
simpler.”

#7:
Getting
Coaching
From
The
Best
Alex
said
“I’m
definitely
beginning
to
understand
how
there
ARE
shortcuts
to
getting
six
pack
abs
now.
I
can
see
how
most
guys
literally
waste
YEARS
doing
ineffective
things,
and
they
would
get
results
much
faster
if
they
just
did
the
things
that
worked
right
off
the
bat.”
“Right,”
I
said.
“But
I
still
haven’t
told
you
about
the
ULTIMATE
shortcut
to
getting
six
pack
abs.”
“Really...there’s
an
ultimate
shortcut?
What
is
it?”
“I
call
it
the
ultimate
shortcut
because
just
by
using
this
one,
you’ll
automatically
have
access
to
all
the
rest.
And
that
shortcut
is:
getting
coaching
and
training
from
the
best.”
“Why
is
that
so
important?”
Alex
asked.
“I
mean,
aren’t
all
personal
trainers
and
fitness
experts
the
same?”
“Most
definitely
not.
The
right
trainer
can
make
a
MASSIVE
difference
in
your
results,
and
get
you
abs
in
weeks
rather
than
years.
But
unfortunately,
many
trainers
will
actually
teach
you
the
WRONG
stuff,
and
leave
you
worse
off
then
when
you
started.”
“So
how
can
I
tell
the
difference?”
“Well,
there
are
three
main
criteria
that
I
look
for.”
“First
of
all,
the
trainer
must
be
in
great
shape.
If
you’re
currently
getting
advice
from
someone
who
has
a
mediocre
or
poor
physique,
you’re
making
a
horrible
mistake.
You
have
to
ask
yourself
–
if
their
advice
is
so
good,
why
don’t
they
use
it
to
get
six
pack
abs
themselves?
There’s
no
real
answer
to
that,
other
than
to
conclude
that
there
is
something
about
either
their
attitudes
towards
fitness
or
their
specific
techniques
that
is
producing
poor
results.
I’ve
seen
MANY
trainers
in
mediocre
shape
give
advice
to
clients,
and
unsurprisingly
their
advice
is
almost
universally
bad.”

“Secondly,
the
guy
must
have
transformed
his
body.
You
don’t
want
to
learn
from
someone
who’s
just
a
genetic
freak,
and
who
naturally
has
six
pack
abs
without
having
to
do
any
work.
This
is
because
a
person
with
“average”
genetics
like
you
and
I
will
not
be
able
to
reproduce
their
results,
even
if
we
do
the
same
things.”
“Finally,
he
must
also
be
a
great
trainer,
in
addition
to
being
able
to
get
great
results
for
himself.
There
are
many
guys
who
can
get
killer
results
in
their
own
body,
but
who
don’t
really
enjoy
teaching
others.
And
there
are
many
guys
who
just
don’t
have
the
skills
required
to
be
a
great
trainer
–
it
requires
an
entirely
different
skillset
to
effectively
teach
and
mentor
a
client,
than
it
does
to
just
train
yourself.
You
need
to
make
sure
that
the
guy
you’re
getting
advice
from
also
has
a
track
record
of
getting
great
results
for
his
clients
–
that’s
how
you’ll
know
you’ve
found
the
right
guy.”
“Hmm...that
sounds
a
lot
like
you!”
Alex
said
with
a
chuckle.
“Yes
it
does,
and
that’s
no
coincidence.
Since
these
are
the
standards
that
I
hold
fitness
experts
to
when
I’m
looking
for
advice,
they’re
also
the
standards
that
I
strive
to
uphold
myself.”

“What’s
that
all
about?”
“Basically,
it’s
the
fastest
way
to
burn
your
belly
fat
and
get
six
pack
abs.
It’s
the
program
that
worked
to
get
hundreds
of
my
clients
six
pack
abs,
most
of
them
in
just
12
weeks.
It’s
delivered
through
a
series
of
professionally
produced
online
videos
you
can
either
stream
or
download.
In
other
words,
it’s
like
having
me
as
your
on‐
call
personal
trainer
24
hours
a
day,
and
at
a
fraction
of
the
cost.”
“Nice,”
he
replied.
“I’ll
be
looking
forward
to
it!”
