Abs.
Everyone wants a tighter tummy.
Guys want a six-pack… ladies want a slim, firm waistline… and yes, some want a six-pack too.
Why be sexist? ; )
So needless to say people are freaked out to find that I train my abs in about 3 minutes.
Total.
Here’s how:

Let me give you the dirty facts about my abs.
They are the worst part of my body… and one of the best parts at the same time.
The “worst” bit has nothing to do with muscles or even bodyfat most of the time… but SKIN.
Remember, I was obese… 46-inch waist and 38 percent bodyfat.
So my skin got pretty messed up. It never quite recovered from that and I have a “bit” of loose skin around my abs.
Drives me nuts. I may have it removed! ; )
But other than THAT… my abs are pretty good.
Here’s a pretty recent shot (after a workout taken with an iPhone… so hardly a professional shot… but you get the idea… )
This is after THREE MINUTES of ab training done 2-3 times a week.
Let me spell out my thoughts on this:
If you are training your abs longer than 7 minutes a week you are doing something wrong… or you’re just wasting your time.
Sorry to break it to you, but abs develop fast.
It’s the BODYFAT you need to focus on.
Still, you need abs… and my HDT-Style Training in 7 Minute Body and 7 Minute Muscle will get you those abs uber-fast:

Go watch and read how it works now.
Before you do, let me give you a substitute exercise for one of the three I recommend during my “3-Minute Abs” routine (found in both books on the page above.)
Hanging leg raises… they are the best when done the way I show you in my book.
BUT some people do not have the gym or the straps I recommend.
So do this instead: Leg raises on a Swiss Ball, bench or even off the floor.
Here’s the tip: Raise the legs, pause at the top for 2 seconds and blow ALL of your air out. Contract your abs HARD at the top.
Then and ONLY then lower the legs slowly.
If you do this right there’s no way to get more than 15 reps. I get about 8 before my abs give out!
That’s all it takes. You do NOT need “high reps” to develop your abs. In fact LOW reps work better…
You just need resistance… and my way of training gives you plenty.
This means a LOT less time doing the exercises and a LOT MORE time enjoying the nice set of tummy muscles you’ve built.
Sounds like a plan.
P.S. Here’s the latest for those interested in my ongoing legal issues with selling rights to a publisher.
This concerns YOU as the price for 7 Minute Muscle and 7 Minute Body will NOT be under my control as soon as the contracts are signed.
This was supposed to happen today… but as luck (for you!) would have it, I got caught in Austin traffic at 5:30pm and missed my 6:00 meeting with the publishers.
The president leaves town tonight-Sunday.
SO NOW… I can extend my half-price (more than half-off the Advanced Videos!) for a few more days…
… so go here:

P.P.S. In case you’re wondering, this is not a clever marketing ploy… 7MM and 7MB are both being acquired by a publisher.
The recognize the amazing benefits this style of workouts offer anyone at any age… fatburning and muscle-shaping…
Otherwise they would not be writing such a nice check… : )
I bought a Jeep with it. So it’s not making me a millionaire or anything, but it’s nice to have my hard work rewarded!
Even nicer than that, I get the chance to almost give away my “baby” to you if you don’t have it already…
When the deal is done, here is what you can expect to happen:
1. The page below WILL change, and that includes the price… they think the price is not right. (I think that means too low… ha… ; )
2. The specials will end due to the fact they will send millions of people to the site rather than a few hundred thousand (my readers and my] affiliates send about that much.)
3. The book will end up in some bookstore eventually… and that’s FINE unless they want to alter the content… which I have a provision to prevent.
Sorry to ramble on about this, but I want you to know the integrity of the guy sending you emails every day…
Sure, I like to make a living. Who doesn’t?
But I won’t sell my soul to do it.
I won’t give up what I KNOW works to make a buck or two… so that means I maintain TOTAL creative control over these books even after the publishers take over.
In fact I’m negotiating a position WITH this firm so I can make SURE I maintain control… and folks, I HATE working for other people!
But it is worth it… IF I can keep the quality of the materials where they are.
And they are 100% solid.
And right now they are 200% cheaper than normal… so if you don’t know what all the fuss is about with all of this “7 minute workout” stuff (I prefer the 14-minute advanced workouts, which you can get too) …

I AM SO SICK OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU LOOSING THEIR PERSONAL WEIGHT OR ACHIEVING THEIR PERSONAL FITNESS GOALS THEN TRYING TO TURN IT INTO A BOOK FOR QUICK CASH. NO ONE! I REPEAT NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO EVER BUY A CHEESY BOOK THAT PROMISES THE
“SECRETS” OR THE “QUICKEST” WAY OF GETTING IN SHAPE. FUCKIN AMERICA MAN JUST DO YOUR OWN WORK LEARN FROM SOMETHING CALL THE INTERNET AND DO SHIT PROPERLY! I HOPE YOUR BOOK DOESNT SELL AND YOU GAIN BACK YOUR 300 FATTY LBS OF PURE SCUM
Quite the attitude Derrick. Thanks for your thoughts on the subject. I even kept your link intact.
Some people do better with a written plan and when they’ve actually paid for it, they see the value in it and are more likely to follow through. That’s how I see it anyway.
and as for your “learn from the internet, and do shit properly” suggestion, well that’s just it isn’t it. It may be ON the internet, but that doesn’t make it the right thing to do for any specific person does it.
and then… as for wishing harm on someone.. well Karma’s a bitch. Good luck.
Now, for anyone else reading this… here are my thoughts. I’ve done 7 Minute Muscle HDT training and it works like nobody’s business. The logic is sound. It’s quick, it works, but it’s not easy. I’ve made gains in my physique using this program that I’ve not seen before and it’s allowed me more time back into my life for other things.
Get the book and begin following the program http://www.SevenMinuteMuscleWorkout.com
It’s that simple
Peace
I agree with Derrick but I also agree with Rob. I too am sick of searching for info and then being bombarded with “buy it now” crap. However, I also believe Rob has a right to parlay his success into some cash. What drives me nuts though is the manipulation in the info – which Rob does as well (sorry Rob)….you know, the “I missed my meeting with the publisher” bullshit. Just say I want you to buy my book so I can make a living and you can get my valuable info. Cut to the chase – don’t insult my intelligence with “lucky you-you got here in time” junk. To be honest, based on the website and what seemed like sincere info, that little line turned me off and then I IMMEDIATELY decided NOT to buy the exercise book. Consider dropping that from the website Rob, it only ticks people off and has probably cost you sales. Just a thought. Sounds gimmicky is all.
Plus… it’s NOT my book. It’s Jon’s. I have it and I recommend it. I earn a commission when someone purchases it. That’s how affiliate programs work and it’s how I pay my bills, just like anyone else. They work, they get paid (generally), and there area numerous programs I do not promote.
