5.0 out of 5 stars
This book is the best if you want a washboard-like abs!!!, January 12, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Legendary Abs II (Paperback)
I've tried almost every workout program for abs, but since I began with the workout in this book, I've gotten the best results, in less time. Believe or not, in just six weeks you'll see a BIG difference. I challenge you to try it, you'll NOT regret.

5.0 out of 5 stars
It's simple, straightforward, fast and easy, June 20, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Legendary Abs II (Paperback)
Forget that damned ab-machine I bought for $59... or was it $99... last year when they were hot. All I got was a sore back and guilt when I shoved it under the bed where it is now collecting dust. This inexpensive little book tells me how to do it without injuring myself and my stomach is flat, smooth and sexy in only about 4 or 5 weeks. If I wanted a lot of definition like a bodybuilder, I am sure I could get it, but this sure does the trick for those of us who just want to look good in a bathing suit, too. Hopefully those dust bunnies under the bed are getting a workout with the ab machine but meanwhile "Legendary Abs" is my equipment of choice for a flat stomach.

It's the real deal, August 2, 2006
This review is from: Legendary Abs II (Paperback)
I've had this book for years now. The book is based on research out of Standford University.
After reading this book you will laugh at all those ab machine commercials since you will know the truth about ab training.
Everyone can have amazing abs if you commit to doing this routine every other day.
If you were to divide your abdominals into two parts, upper and lower abdominals, and then targeted your lower abdominals first followed by your uppers then you'll have covered just a small portion of this book.
What I like the most is the different intensity levels. You start at the lowested level routine and when you stop getting results you move to the next level... until you stop getting results then its on to the next level, etc...
There are no rewards for moving up a level before you are ready!
I also like how they explain why these routines work. How the abs work and how not to train them.
As far a equipment needed to do these routines: a mat would be nice, a chin-up bar to hang from (starting at level 3 I think) and if you don't have good upper body strength, a pair of arm slings so you can hang from the chin-up bar. That's it!
Finally a warning I've read on the web. Health for Life is no longer in business so be wary of their web site.
