Don’t Be Fooled By Fitness Guru’s: There Are Six Pack Abs Scams!

As a member of the workout community, I have to confess that most of my associates know that you are going to buy their workout product and never use it or give up on it quickly, and then buy the next biggest thing because it’s TOO DIFFICULT or it’s not working like it’s supposed to. My associates in this business fully recognize that you’re looking for a magic bullet!

The unconditioned newbie has absolutely NO IDEA what the hell’s going on in this industry and will believe whatever quickest results package they wander across first. They’re the unsuspecting candidates that keep my colleagues in business and the dough rolling in for them.

There are nutrition companies getting sued ALL THE TIME for fraudulent claims, injuries and even DEATHS… but, once the company die’s off… someone else is there to takes its place. Adding insult to injury are the diet pill companies who not only promise you the world but then urge you to ingest harmful chemicals that probably don’t work for many of us anyway.

I’m skeptical by nature so when my friend told me about a new downloadable program to lose a beer belly and more, I about blew a gasket. She’s usually right on in situations like this so, I at least owed it to her to hear her out.

When I read the website, I was pretty impressed with the content and the successful testimony that were printed. However, I was a little skeptical because I know that it’s pretty easy to get testimonials from newbies… after all… just by them getting off the chair… they will generally see some kind of results.

Just because something comes in a neat package doesn’t mean its a final fix for your problem. On the other hand I know from personal experience having been in the fitness industry for some time now that you don’t have to break your back with workouts 7 days a week either.

Everyone has a different body type and sometimes such a quick fix as eliminating the nasty chemicals found in soda, diet and regular, can trigger your body into not storing fats in specific body area’s like your stomach region. Ever wonder where the terminology ‘beer belly’ came from?

Surprisingly, within a few days, my friend asked me again if I had bought the package and I replied that I hadn’t as of yet. Of course, she reprimanded me for being so heartless and not believing in her.

I wanted to see what kind of response I would get so I got to work… I have some contacts in the fitness industry so I did some calling that afternoon and got the email address of the author. I shot him a quick but, pointed note about his no more beer belly-six pack abs program and why I felt it wouldn’t work.

The next morning, I had a reply from him… I didn’t expect it to turn out like this though!
