Customer Rating:      Summary: "...it is believed..."??? Comment: There is good information in this book, but one must sift through the chaff. The essentials could have been condensed down to less than 30 pages. Instead, there is a lot of "fluff," and after the umpteenth use of "it is believed", I started to lose faith in the information in this book. "It is believed" is right up there with "they said" and "I heard"--it is believed by who? Was there a study done?
If you can get a dirt cheap copy of this, sift through it and it'll be fine.
Customer Rating:      Summary: good will buy again Comment: i received in quicker than i thought. i would definetly do business with them again.
Customer Rating:      Summary: The two things you need Comment: There are really two things you get from this book:
1. The scientific basis for how you get to optimal health and:
2. You get a specific plan on how to get there.
You get this from someone who plainly knows his stuff. You get knowledge, then a plan of action.
The author is not long on motivational diatribes and this book will not give you any "you can do it" pep talk that will get you fired up for a few days before you quit the protein and move back to fried foods. The author does suggest ways to sustain your motivation however. His undertaking takes commitment -and as a practical matter, you need to go find that yourself.
The science is plain that you can do it if you really want to and many people Rehan Jalali has worked with (and that you probably see on a regular basis in professional sports, movies and music videos) have proven it over and over again. Just follow the steps, do his diet and workout plan. You will get there.
There are really two six pack diet plans here. The first is for those who are serious about being in good health and having the body they want long term. Another is really a short term body for those posing in magazines or competing to show who looks better with their shirts off.
While Rehan Jalali does not spend too much of the book on the latter category, (what he calls "peaking") this is where his expertise is most visible since you have probably seen a movie with an actor in amazing shape.
What you get from the Six-Pack Diet Plan is a formula for success that you see over and over again in other people, only it's going to happen to you. He makes it plain. Just follow his advice and don't make it more complicated then it is.
Following advice in the book, I have lost over 40 pounds and feel amazing. Notwithstanding the poorly designed book cover, I don't think you could spend $10-15 on anything more valuable at Amazon if you are serious about the way you look and feel.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Solid information that works for men and women Comment: I have read this fitness gem several times and it is concise, detailed, research based, easy to read, and it works!
Some very interesting and new concepts are mentioned in the book including hormone modification, detailed info on sleep, supplement strategies, and the thermic effect of food, as well as many others. The research supporting the practice of intense, short training sessions mentioned in the book was very useful. This book is a must have for anyone looking to get leaner and healthier permanently. And what I really love about the book is that it is not some fad or quick fix diet, but a real and long term fat loss solution!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Challenged by layout and lack of information geared toward female readers Comment: The book had some tangible information but nothing that you couldn't find for free on a site like muscleandfitness.com, realsolutions.com or muscleandfitnesshers.com. When it came to supplements, there was no specific data with intake per pound of body weight consideration or with reference to females specifically. So everyone was given the same a scattering of information (I indicate scattering because a chart or localized set of data wasn't provided - the data was just shared throughout the book and then a generic description of each supplement was indicated and when to take them - not quantity per gender or pound, which in all other supplement guides tends to be pretty standard information. The book could have been condensed to about 6 pages of usable info if you removed all the over-the-top medical research data supporting the studies of the supplements he recommends. A more useful, grounded book is 5-factor Fitness. I'm giving 6 Pack Diet Plan two stars because I did find a couple supplements indicated in this book I hadn't found in prior research I've come across.

Editorial Reviews:

"Six-pack" abdominal muscles have long been viewed as the sign of ultimate physical fitness. Although many people strive for this level of fitness, lasting success evades them. Bodybuilders, advertising models, and professional athletes make achieving a "washboard" stomach look easy. So why do so many people have trouble getting lean abs and lowering their body fat? Can you get six-pack abs and maintain this level of fitness permanently? Sure you can. When you realize that there's no "magical" solution for losing excess weight and that quick fixes and short-term diets just won't work on a long-term basis, you'll be ready for "The Six-Pack Diet Plan." The plan described in this book is a long-term weight-loss solution that specifically targets problem areas such as the abdominal region. It uses your body's natural components, such as hormones, to help you win the battle of the bulge and create a fat-loss-friendly environment in your body. "The Six-Pack Diet Plan" offers researched-based concepts to optimize each facet of the fat-loss puzzle. And like any puzzle, it takes all the pieces to make it complete: proper nutrition, quality training, optimum supplementation, and perseverance to create a fat-loss program that you can live with.
