Six Pack Abs, Weight Loss Diets, and Ab Machines – What the Infomercials Don’t Tell You
Six-pack abs, ab exercises, ab machines…all mantras for more than a decade of fitness products and weight loss advertisements in the US. How many variations of the Ab-Name-Goes-Here ab machine, stomach tightener, or whatever you want to call it, have been marketed and sold under the banner of giving the bearer six-pack abs. Then there are the limitless magazine articles with headlines like “Best Ab Exercises”, “How to Get Six Pack Abs”, or “Tighter Tummy in Just 10 Days”. If aliens landed on earth, these would be some of the first phrases they would learn, at least in English.
Here’s the truth of the matter that anyone who has spent a good, solid year of fitness and weight training can tell you: six pack abs are as much about what and how much you eat as about how you exercise your abdominal muscles.
I remember an occurrence of “wise older workout master meets the greenhorn” that happened within a few feet of where I was exercising one afternoon in the gym. (It was, of course, around the ab machines.) A solid, well-defined young man, clearly dedicated to what he was doing, asked an older member who had a more defined set of abs how he got them. The young man protested that he was knocking himself out doing every ab workout that the gurus recommended, but he still wasn’t getting the results he thought he should given the work he was putting in.
Don’t get me wrong: he had a relatively flat stomach, and one that I’m sure most people would love to have. It just didn’t match his arms, his chest, or his legs, which were clearly first class for a serious fitness enthusiast.
The wise elder stopped what he was doing, shook his head and chuckled to himself, then said, “I’m not laughing at you. You just wouldn’t believe how many times people ask me that. Actually, there’s three things going on here. You’re already doing all the workouts you need, so that brings it down to two. One is genetic, and you can’t do anything about that. The other part is diet. I don’t care how much you work your abs, if you’re eating too much, or eating the wrong foods, you’re not going see a six pack. You’ll have great abs, but you’re not going to see them.”
O.K. I know you’re probably not aiming for fitness model abs, but I give this example to make the point of how critical the diet component is. Everyone who makes and markets those ab workout devices knows this too. Just look at the ad carefully, and you will see that each product includes a handy diet program to go along with the ab exercises. At some point during the infomercial, or in the ad copy if it’s a print ad, they make it perfectly clear that if you want to achieve the flat stomach of your dreams, you will also need to follow their dietary guidelines.
You have no idea how many guys and gals are walking around out there with text book six pack abs, but nobody’s ever seen them because they’re hidden beneath a layer (or two or three) of fat.
The other thing they’re not telling you: there is no such thing as “spot reduction”. You cannot focus fat loss on the abdominal region using exercise. The calorie burn that accompanies any form of muscle workout affects the entire body, which means your gut-busting ab workout will probably be evident first in your face. Then, depending on factors out of your control (genetics), you will lose weight in other parts of your body, the order of which can differ somewhat from person to person.
Don’t misunderstand me. If you’re working your abs hard, you are certainly making them stronger, and that’s a good thing. But they may remain hidden under your belly fat until the time comes for your body to cast some of it off.
For men, ironically the last place you may see the effects of your weight loss workout program is your abdominal area. As we all know by now, Mother Nature has programmed men to store fat in the stomach area. Women get it mostly in the hips, and also in the abs. Mother Nature doesn’t give a flip about you looking like a fitness model. She’s going to keep some extra around the waistline just to be safe.
In the final analysis, six pack abs are overrated, and too darn difficult to come by. When it comes to building a stronger abdominal section, unless you’re genetically gifted in this area, it’s probably best to focus on diet management and balanced workouts, which lead to good weight management and better health. Let the ab development sneak up on you over time. If you can gain control of your diet, and get both aerobic and weight training in your workouts, you can build a stronger and flatter abdominal area, which is an achievement you can be proud of.

Weight Loss Support Synergistic Combination 360 vegicap bottle: HE $50.24 We use only 100% Gluten-free, Vegetable Cellulose ”00” capsules for all of our encapsulated products. Weight Loss Support Synergistic Combination — Approximately 600 mg. each capsule. Everywhere we turn today we hear (and see – perhaps even in the mirror) evidence of overweight. Today’s lifestyles often bring about fast foods, less physical activity, emotional stresses, quick energy needs and all the modern factors that lead to weight gain. More than just a cosmetic problem, the subject has become a serious health issue. Doesn’t it seem odd that even though so many people are constantly dieting, the number of overweight people rises every year? Constant yo-yo dieting can impede normal metabolic rate, which is necessary for burning fat, thus requiring another diet and leading to the never-ending cycle of weight loss and weight gain. That is why a sensible diet, including fewer empty calories and added nutrients, plus some exercise, improved metabolism and increased energy, are all key to weight loss success. Overweight can lead to many serious ailments, so getting on the right track to good health requires personal commitment, but….can’t we all use a little help? Well, help is on the way: Herbal Extracts Plus has blended two all-natural medicinal extracts in a superior herbal product called Weight Loss Support that is specifically designed to nourish the body with the important vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that are often neglected while dieting – while helping to suppress appetite, enhance energy, boost metabolism and promote the burning of fat. The herbal supplements included in this exceptional blend help to provide your body with all the support it needs for safe, effective and lasting weight loss results. Purpose of Formulation: The premium plant extracts in Weight Loss Support include the vital nutrients that will nourish the body while helping to suppress the appetite, increase energy and endurance, enhance metabolic rate, as well as burn the all-important calories and fat for long-term weight loss. Ingredients: A mixture of 65% Bladderwrack 4:1 and 35% Garcinia (60% Hydroxycitric Acids) Bladderwrack and other seaweeds are a great gift from the sea. Like other seaweeds, Bladderwrack is a remarkable source of iodine, which is essential for the healthy functioning of the thyroid gland and used extensively in the treatment of thyroid gland disorders, including goiter and low-metabolism-related obesity. In 1860, it was claimed that Bladderwrack could stimulate a sluggish thyroid gland and might also counter obesity by increasing the metabolic rate and the rate at which the body uses energy and, consequently, decreases fat deposits. Bladderwrack was thus often used as a tonic, as well as in baths and spas, and the treatments remained in favor well into the twentieth century. Since then, it has been featured in numerous slimming remedies, and there have been some reports that Bladderwrack has also red |

Weight Loss Support Proprietary Remedy 1200 vegicap bottle: HE $203.25 We use only 100% Gluten-free, Vegetable Cellulose ”00” capsules for all of our encapsulated products. Weight Loss Support Proprietary Remedy — Approximately 600 mg. each capsule. Herbal Extracts Plus has designed this botanical blend with the intention of supporting your efforts to lose weight in a natural, safe and effective manner. Weight Loss Support is not a miracle diet pill, but rather an herbal supplement to complement a weight reduction program. It includes the necessary nutrients to sustain and nourish the entire body and also provides known herbal support to help suppress the appetite and promote the burning of fat. Your daily routine should also consist of adjusting your eating habits and making some time for exercise. If you live a sedentary lifestyle and aren’t committed to adjusting your routine with diet and exercise, you will not enjoy the full benefits from the increased metabolic capacity and appetite suppression. It is also recommended that you consult a physician prior to starting any vigorous exercise routine. Purpose of Formulation: Supports you in your determination to lose excess body weight by suppressing appetite and boosting metabolic rate. Other Applications: • Provides many valuable nutrients • Supports symptoms of many inflammatory disorders • Reduces cholesterol • Reduces excess water weight Herbal Ingredient Information: The following information is a brief overview describing each of the above herbal ingredients and what properties each contributes to make up this proprietary blend. • Plantain has been shown in studies to effectively contribute to weight loss when used in conjunction with a prescribed dietary regimen. When Plantain, with its high mucilage and fiber content, was added to the diet, it has been conjectured that it works by filling and coating the stomach, which limits caloric intake by reducing the absorption of fats, as well as providing a feeling of fullness and reducing the appetite. • Kelp nourishes the thyroid gland and so maintains healthy metabolism and glandular function. When obesity is a direct result of thyroid disorders, Kelp may be of some help in weight control by stimulating the thyroid because of its high iodine content. Many nutritionists assume that by stimulating thyroid function, Kelp increases metabolism and the rate at which the body uses energy and consequently decreases fat deposits. There have been some reports that Kelp has also reduced cellulite deposits and has reduced water retention. Kelp promotes a healthy-functioning and balanced system throughout the body, building immunity and generally improving glandular functions overall (also aiding digestion and respiration). • Magnolia Bark has recently been recognized as an efficient fat burner and could be helpful in the fight against obesity. It is said that the magnolol and honokial in the herb effectively inhibit the body’s production of cortisol, the substance th |

Kelp promotes a healthy-functioning and balanced system throughout the body, building immunity and generally improving glandular functions overall (also aiding digestion and respiration). • Magnolia Bark has recently been recognized as an efficient fat burner and could be helpful in the fight against obesity. It is said that the magnolol and honokial in the herb effectively inhibit the body’s production of cortisol, the substance th |

Hoodia Weight Loss Support Extract 2 fl oz: HH $48.06 This combinastion tincture provides support for the nervous system, nutrition, and energy for weight loss. Hoodia Gordonii looks like a cactus, but is actually a milkweed-like plant that grows in Botswana and the Kalahari Desert in Southwestern Africa. It was just introduced to the US market in early 2004. The story goes that the San people in the Kalahari used to munch on Hoodia to curb the hunger pangs that would strike during times of drought. The active ingredient, P57, was not discovered by accident. In 1996 the South African statutory council known as CSIR (Council for Scientific and Industrial Research) was doing research on the food of the local "Bushmen" or San ate. The CSIR was amazed when they analysed Hoodia gordonii, the animals they where testing it on did not die or have any side effect except weightloss. It was concluded that the Hoodia gordonii succulent was non-toxic and a natural appetite suppresant. By 1997 the CSIR had isolated the bioactive compound in Hoodia that had the appetite suppressing properties. They obtained a patent and licensed P57, named P57 because it was the 57th product the CSIR had spent funds on, to Phytopharm. In one of Phytofarm’s experiments, subjects given hoodia consumed 1,000 calories a day less that those in the control group. Hoodia Gordoni was featured on 60 minutes. Leslie Stahl actually went to Africa to try it. So how did it work? Stahl says she had no after effects – no funny taste in her mouth, no queasy stomach, and no racing heart. She also wasn’t hungry all day, even when she would normally have a pang around mealtime. And, she also had no desire to eat or drink the entire day. "I’d have to say it did work," Stahl said. Hoodia Gordonii has been used by the South African San tribe for thousands of years. The San used this plant when they went hunting. Hoodia helped to prolong hunting trips by suppressing hunger, increasing energy levels and even improving libido! It is believed that Hoodia sends signals to the brain that make the brain believe that the body is full, even when it is not. These signals are believed to be thousands of times stronger than the signals that sugar sends to the brain for the same reason. This makes Hoodia a very powerful appetite suppressant, and a very effective weight loss product. For this reason it is included in many over-the-counter dietary weight loss supplements. Key results of hoodia reported include a reduced interest in food, delay in the time after eating before hunger sets in again, feeling full more quickly, and a general feeling of well-being Hoodia gordonii is not a stimulant, and has no known side effects. Hoodia appears to be safe for most people. |

Weight Loss Program 3-Formula Kit, 3 bottles of 60 vegicaps each bottle: HE $39.92 We use only 100% Gluten-free, Vegetable Cellulose ”00” capsules for all of our encapsulated products. Weight Loss Program — Approximately 600 mg. each capsule. Herbal Extracts Plus offers a three-part herbal support program for those who truly want to lose weight permanently and those with a sincere desire to change the way they feel about food, thus improving the way they feel about themselves. Complementing your own sensible diet and exercise activities, this program includes three separate herbal combination blends intended to provide the natural support needed by your body during this difficult time, and it boosts your body’s ability to keep weight off. This program supplies your body with numerous vitamins, nutrients, special trace elements and minerals, thus providing many health-building beneficial constituents, which are vital to overall health. These high-potency herbal extracts also aid in the absorption of vitamins and minerals from your daily food intake. Whenever you go on a diet, your body senses that something is different and becomes stressed, sometimes slowing metabolism in order to conserve and store fat for later use. It does this because your body doesn’t know when to expect its next meal, so it goes into ‘’self-defense.” When you supplement your more healthful dietary routine with exercise and the nutrients required for continued health, you avoid the additional strain on your body, thus avoiding this biological defense mechanism. The herbal extracts included in these blends also help to provide your body with the support it needs to boost a sluggish metabolism, enhancing your weight loss results, improving energy and physical endurance, increasing circulation, reducing excess fluids, cleansing harmful toxins from your body, and relieving fatigue and stress. This unique set of proprietary botanical blends has been shown to help support you in your efforts to finally reach your goal weight. Herbal Extracts Plus’ Complete Weight Loss Program will be shipped as a kit with dosage recommendations and includes the following products: • Weight Loss Support: A blend of all-natural herbal ingredients that cleanse and detoxify the body internally.

This blend also contains ingredients that dramatically curb the appetite, giving you the opportunity to use your own good judgment in adjusting your daily eating habits, while stimulating your metabolic rate. Because this blend is loaded with vital nutrients, your body will process proteins more efficiently, so that muscle mass is not lost. • Plantain (Plantago major) (4:1) • Kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) (4:1) • Magnolia Bark (Magnolia officinalis) (2% Honokiol) • Korean Ginseng (Panax ginseng) (80% Ginsenosides) • Irish Moss (Chondrus crispus) (4:1) • Gymnema (Gymnema sylvestre) (25% Gymnemic Acids) • Green Tea ( |
