As a member of the fitness community, I have to confess that most of my colleagues know that you are going to buy their nutrition 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. You are expecting a magic bullet aren't you? And, my associates know that.

The unconditioned newbie has absolutely NO IDEA what the hell's going on in this community and will believe whatever quickest results package they wander across first. They're the unsuspecting candidates that keep my colleagues in business and the money 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 replace it. Adding insult to injury are the diet pill companies who not only promise you the world but then urge you to swallow their harmful chemicals that probably don't work for many of us anyway.

I'm very skeptical by nature so when my friend told me about a new downloadable abdominals program on the internet I about blew a gasket. But, since she's usually right on in situations like this I at least owed it to her to hear her out.

When I read the site she sent me to, I was initially impressed with the material 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 usually see results.

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

You have to wonder where the term 'beer belly' really cam from... Body types are different and sometimes such a quick fix like eliminating chemicals found in soda, diet and regular, can trigger your body into not storing certain fats in specific body area's.

Surprisingly, the next day, she asked me if I had checked out the package and I replied that I hadn't as of yet. Of course, she reprimanded me for being so heartless and not believing her.

I wanted to see what kind of response I would get so I got to work... I have some contacts in the workout 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 day he had replied to me... I didn't expect him to have this response though!
