Jillian Michaels Promoting Diet Pills, What The Heck?

Author: Jeremiah Baker creator of How I Got Abs.com

Wow, I was just at a major department store and in the health and nutrition section I saw something that just downright surprised me!

I saw Jillian Michaels photo on a box of diet pills!

As you know, I am not a big fan of diet pills. I don’t think that they are good for you at all and they just downright don’t work and they’re the wrong approach to a healthy lifestyle.

Just go to Google and type in diet pills side effects and you’ll see all the bad things that can happen when you take diet pills in general.

Why would Jillian promote diet pills? Just seems really strange to me. I hope that is not just for the money!!!

I’ve seen this woman on the TV shows promoting great advice and helping people to lose fat and get healthy, then this, a big box of diet pills sitting there on the shelf with her picture on it.

Please leave your comments, let me know what you think!

I hope that Jillian has not gone the way of someone willing to push a product just because it sells. Not Good!

Remember, I’m here to give you the truth when it comes to losing fat and getting six pack abs and this diet pill thing really got me good!

To your success,

One of The Most Commonly Made Weight Loss Mistakes!

Hi guys,

Jeremiah Baker here the author of how I got abs.com. the guy that lost 28 pounds of fat and got six pack abs for the first time in my life at the age of 31.

This article covers what I consider to be one of the most commonly made weight-loss mistakes that those people make

See, the problem is there’s so much information available to us to baby it magazines on the Internet and just other people giving us advice like friends and family when it comes to weight loss and getting sixpack abs.  It can get down right confusing.

What I see people doing is trying different techniques and different tricks to lose weight and they’re not following in overall strategy and then they don’t get the results they want and they think that nothing is going to work.

If you really want to have long-term fat loss and get sixpack abs you have to follow a strategy that’s proven and you can’t simply go from one fat loss trick to the next expecting to lose your gut and get sixpack abs.

You see, effective weight loss is really quite simple, you simply need to do the right things one day at a time and if you’re bouncing from one diet to the next, one diet pill to the next, one ab gadget to the next you’re not going to get the results you desire.

If I can make one positive impact on you it would be pick a proven fat loss strategy and stick to it one day at a time and track and measure your results and don’t measure results only by how much weight you lose but rather how much fat percentage you’re losing.

If you haven’t already go ahead and fill out the form on the right hand side of this page and you’ll get in your e-mail my number one secret to getting sixpack abs video for free.

Lose Belly Fat by Reducing Sugar In Your Daily Diet

Jeremiah here author of How I Got Abs.

I just read a great article from Jorge Cruise (weight loss expert) about getting rid of your belly by cutting your sugar intake to 15 grams per day.

I can’t agree more!

I reduced my sugar intake about 2 years ago and have never looked back.  I lost 28 pounds of fat and have six pack abs for the first time in my life.

Sugar just does not go well when you’re trying to get rid of your gut or get six pack abs.

Important: Read the labels on everything you eat. Sugar is hidden in just about every food you can imagine.

Give it a shot and let me know what you think.

Sugar=Big belly :-)

Sincerely,

Jeremiah

How To Lose Belly Fat by Doing Cardio Exercise

By: Jeremiah Baker

This article focuses on losing belly fat by using cardio exercise such as running, sprinting, biking, swimming or any other exercise that gets you breathing hard and huffing and puffing.

I’ll start by saying that yes, you do have to do cardio vascular exercise if you want to turbo charge your fat loss and get ripped six pack abs.

Why cardio?

Cardio exercise at the right intensity and duration allows your body to use fat for fuel. When your body uses fat for fuel you lose fat.

I know a lot of experts are going around saying that you don’t need to do cardio to get ripped six pack abs, but from my experience you do need cardio.

I started out as an over weight 31 year old guy with a big gut and 20% plus body fat. (That’s me in the photo below).

I used to pump iron and lift weights almost every day of the week, yet I was not able to lose my gut.

It was not able to lose my gut until I…

  1. Built a proper nutrition plan (notice I did not say diet)
  2. Used weight training as part of my exercise program
  3. Added cardio exercise to turbo charge my fat loss

With this being said, cardio alone is not going to give you ripped six pack abs. You need the system and the right system for your individual body type.

Here’s my simple motto for getting ripped six pack abs.

  1. Eat the right foods, the right amount of them, and at the right times of the day
  2. Use weight training to build lean muscle mass
  3. Use cardio exercise to turbo charge your fat loss

To your success,

How To Get Six Pack Abs – The #1 Mistake Most People Make!

By: Jeremiah Baker

The biggest mistake I see people make when attempting to get six pack abs is doing hundreds of crunches or sit-ups.

For some reason all of the infomercials have us believing that you get six pack abs by using some fancy ab machine or by wearing some ab belt.

The biggest one that gets me is those commercials showing how their ab device works more ab muscles than your standard crunch or sit-up.

If you have fat over your ab muscles you can do as many crunches or sit-ups as you want but you’ll never get six pack abs unless you get rid of the fat that is sitting over your abdominal muscles.

So… with this being said, who cares if some ab machine works more muscles than your standard crunch, neither of these exercises are going to get you six pack abs if you have fat on your stomach.

Guys, if you want six pack abs your main goal should be to get your body fat % in the 8-10% range.  Don’t worry about doing ab specific exercises.

Your main goal should be to create a fat loss program that is going to help you get your body fat % in the 8-10% range.

Look at my photos below, I hardly ever do sit-ups or crunches and you can see that I have six pack abs.

six pack absConclusion:

Please don’t be fooled by all of the infomercials. Those folks are usually just taking advantage of the fact that people believe that there is a magic tool or pill that is going to give them six pack abs.

Remember, getting six pack abs is all about lowering your body fat percentage to the 8-10% range (men).

To your success,

How To Get Six Pack Abs – The Truth May Suprise You…

By: Jeremiah Baker

Today I’m going to let you in on the secret to getting 6 pack abs.

Getting six pack abs like those guys have in the fitness magazines has nothing to do with:

  • How many crunches or sit-ups you do
  • Fancy ab gadgets like you see on TV
  • Fad Diets
  • Starvation Diets
  • Acai Berries
  • Diet Pills

Here it is, this is how you get 6 pack abs like you see in the magazines.

Guys: Get your body fat percentage in the 8-10% range.

Women: Get your body fat percentage in the 16-18% range.

That’s it, it is all about getting your body fat percentage in the correct range. If you have a gut you have to get the fat off of your abs or you’ll never see them.

I saw a picture of the man that holds the World Record for doing sit-ups and he has a fat roll of a gut. That should be proof to you that sit-ups won’t get rid of your gut and give you 6 pack abs.

I know TV commercials would like you to buy their fancy ab machines and gadgets, but please save your money. These machines won’t give you six pack abs if you have a belly.

In my book “How I Got Abs” I show you step by step how to get your body fat percentage down so that you can see your abs.

I hope that you find this information useful and please don’t fall for all the stuff they preach on TV.  Getting abs is all about getting your body fat percentage low enough so that your ab muscles can show.

Get lean & feel great!
