"The Abs Diet" Book
The Six-Week Plan to Flatten Your Stomach and Keep You Lean for
Life. Whether you want to change your body to improve your health,
your looks, your athletic performance, or your sex appeal, The
Abs Diet offers you a simple promise
Written by Men’s Health editor-in-chief David Zinczenko,
with Ted Spiker, The Abs Diet is a simple plan for optimum eating
and weight training, along with some good, solid ab work that
should have men and women flocking to the bookstores before they
hit the gym. Although written more for men, the diet and exercise
plan is perfectly applicable to women, and focuses on revving
up metabolism by building lean muscle through the proper foods,
weight exercises and of course, the crunches and ab work. The
idea is to get the body burning calories all the time, whether
engaged in exercise or not, and only the increase of lean muscle
mass can accomplish this goal.
David Zinczenko, the editor-in-chief of Men's Health magazine, grew
up as an overweight kid in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Since then,
he has become one of America's leading experts on health and fitness,
has offered advice to men during appearances on Good Morning America
and The Early Show, and has twice competed in the New York City
Marathon. He lives in New York City and Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Ted Spiker, an assistant professor of journalism at the University
of Florida, is a contributing editor to Men's Health. His work
has also been published in Fortune, O, The Oprah Magazine, InStyle,
Sports Illustrated Women; Writer's Digest, Adventure Sports; and
more. He is a graduate of the University of Delaware and the Columbia
University Graduate School of Journalism.
The Abs Diet is not a gimmick. It doesn't bury you in measuring,
calculating, counting, or hard-to-understand phases. It lets you
enjoy the foods you crave. It's not low-carb, low-fat, or low-anything-else.
It's just a smart, sensible, healthy plan that will give you the
body you want in weeks. And you'll never feel hungry, restricted,
or deprived.
