The Simple Truth of Abs

I'm mystified by some of the poor reviews for this book, including some rather mean spirited ones ("best as a table book for gays?" uh, yeah, there are some nice physique photos of Shawn Phillips, along with a lady friend, but oh well; they are artful, like living sculpture.) I completed one Bill Phillips' Body for Life Challenge, and am on my second one, and have nearly regained the physique of my dreams using Bill Phillips' approach. I ordered AbSolution, because my abs were still not reaching their potential. I found the book to be well written and easy to follow, and the Abs program to be very well explained in terms of the actual exercises. Sure, the exercises may SEEM simple, but they are VERY effective, when done slowly and to his specs. Shawn also wisely shares how having great abs is perhaps the final result you'll get in pursuing an all around great body. He minces no words about saying this is Hard Work, and the culmination of a lifestyle, that there is no "one thing", but the "one thing" you need to do is the "everything", the way you live your life. I highly recommend this book, as a great tool in your kit for getting into your best shape. I found it to be easy reading; I sometimes find books with tons of exercises and exhaustive explanations more difficult to follow than a simple, concise, well done book like this one. Makes a great companion to Body for Life.

Finally, a good information source

This book may be written by a PHILLIPS, but he ain't no Bill! This book by Shawn Phillips is outstanding. I have bought and read hundreds of books and magazines (including Body For Life) and have found no information of value to the "regular" person just trying to get that 20 year old look again - or close to it! This book brought it all together, nutrition, warm up (something Bill Phillips forgot about), work out, and stretching (another thing Bill forgot). Shawn Phillips did an excellent job at making the "average Joe" see that they can do it too.

ABSolutely Fabulous

Inspiring! That is the first word that comes to mind when I think about this book. "ABSolution" is a great book for showing us how we can get in shape. By the time you reach the end of the book you will understand that building abs is not just about exercising those "trouble" spots, it is a way of life. The book gives complete instructions on how to build perfect abdominal muscles. It doesn't give you just abdominal exercises, it also shows you other exercises, discusses supplements, and has a great section on nutrition. The text does not go into detail about what every meal should consist of, but instead it describes how your eating patterns should be developed. This helps you focus on a lifestyle change and not a "diet". It also highlights reasons why we should not just do sit-ups for our abdominal muscles. Instead, it shows you exercises that have been proven to build those perfect abdominal muscles.Whether you are a person with perfect "six-pack" abs or a person that could use a little workout, this book was created with you in mind. Don't hesitate to buy and read this book. I believe it holds the key to building the perfect body, as well as a great set of "abs".

GREAT INFO!!!!!!!

7 months ago I had my 3rd child which I had gained over 50lbs. with each of my pregnancies and I've had EXCELLENT results with my body since I've been following the Body For Life book, by Bill Phillips, but I needed more information than what the BfL book gave on ab work and on getting my stomach flat and toned. Shawn Phillips book, ABSolution, gave me exactly the information that I needed to feel confident that I will be able to get my abs in the best shape ever without feeling like my only option left....liposuction!!!

I WAS SKEPTICAL AT FIRST...

Knowing this book was from the Phillips' brothers (Shawn and Bill), I was a little skeptical to pick it up. But after reading and hearing some reviews firsthand, I had to give it a read and see what Shawn had to say about "how he built those incredible abs!" Quit simply, I was amazed!! Not only was this book a pleasant, honest, and easy read; it had so many "aha's" contained in it -- the type of revelations that have only occured once or twice in my 15 plus years of weight-training -- that I learned more about exercise and nutrition from him [Shawn] than in all of the books and magazines of past. Shawn reveals very small distinctions that can have a very profound impact on your training. Which translates into better results, faster, in the gym. After only one week into the ABSolution Program, I've completely altered my training, eating and supplementation to fit my lifestyle needs, and can literally see and feel the difference it's making in my body. ~ From a once-time skeptic, to a firm believer. FIVE STARS all the way for ABSolution. Thanks for giving me hope once again. New York's Body-Trainer of the Stars.
