Listed below are the 10 most frequently asked questions from individuals like you who are considering investing in their health through How to Flatten Your Stomach (HTFYS), and also from people who are already using the program.
Question #1 addresses the most important, and most frequently asked question.
Let's begin with the most important, and most frequently asked question. This question generally comes from people who want to have a flat stomach, but are doubtful they'll be able to achieve their goals.
"You admit your book is written very simplistically. It needs more pages... complex terminology... in-depth calculations... tables...maybe even a section on how to select appropriate workout clothing... After all, if you don't address and explain every little detail about each muscle involved, how much can you really know about stomach flattening exercises?"
Most people are convinced books must be lengthy and in-depth to do any good. Remember those heavy text books you carried around during your school days? They were complicated and gave you more information than you wanted... or needed!
Here's why...
Most books are written to impress you with how much the author knows. Whereas, HTFYS was written to give you results.
In today's busy world, you only have time for an exercise program with easy to follow instructions, relevant pictures, and one that gives you results. HTFYS shows you how!
But there are several misunderstandings about exercise.
"No pain-no gain."
"For any exercise to work, you have to sweat."
"A flat stomach means hundreds of sit-ups and crunches every day."
Wrong! HTFYS was written with your goal in mind: to build and maintaina flat stomach easily.
Please understand that this will take time. You will be doing a limited number of exercises, and a limited number of repetitions of each exercise.
Why?
Because you will continue with an easy program, and you'd probably quit a strenuous one.
"For any exercise to work, you have to sweat."
HTFYS is not an aerobic program. Keep these two principles in mind with this program: 1) Unless you're working in a hot area, you shouldn't work up a sweat; 2) If you feel stiff or sore tomorrow, you did too much today.
"A flat stomach means hundreds of sit-ups and crunches every day."
Unless you want to become an abdominal culturist, there is no reason to ever do more than a dozen reps of ten exercises per workout.
Think about it: are any of these misunderstandings keeping you from having the flat stomach you want? With HTFYS you can have the flat abs, smaller waistline, youthful appearance, and compliments you want!
The best time is usually in the morning when you first get up. Early exercisers are least likely to become dropouts, although any time that's convenient is fine.
You can do a few reps of every exercise everyday if you want. Or, you can rotate through the different exercises in the program. For example, you might do reps of eight different exercises in every workout. Pay attention to your results and do what works best for you.
No. Remember, HTFYS was written to be an easy program to use. The exercises range from very simple to rather difficult. That means you use the exercises, and in the order that works best, for you.
You may feel improved abdominal strength in a few weeks, or even a few days. You probably won't see improved flatness in your stomach for a month or more.
This program works for individuals of many different age groups. The exact amount of exercising you start with depends not only on your age, but also, your physical condition. As with any exercise program, you should first check with your doctor. Explain to him/her that you're planning to go slowly, and that your goal is to flatten your stomach. The older you are, and the less you've been exercising, the more important this medical consultation becomes.
Yes, use of the program after pregnancy will definitely aid in restrengthening a woman's abdominal muscles. First check with your doctor before beginning your exercise program.
Yes, because the abdominals also help support the lower part of your backbone. Lower back pain is a common problem in people over forty. If you wish to prevent this problem, exercising the muscles of the lower back and stomach will help. This program does exercise both areas. Also, if you currently suffer lower back pain, the program could be useful as therapy. Check with your doctor before beginning your program.
If muscular definition is what you want, you will probably have to do one or all of three things. 1: Step up this program considerably. 2: Get into an aerobic program designed to burn off more calories. 3: Eat a healthy diet.
After you reach your goal, you'll want to stay with the program. Why? Because you'll be able to maintain your stomach easily!
