Summary: An Excellent Guide for the Beginner
Review: Although a tad overpriced, this book is an excellent starting point for anyone wanting to develop their mid-section. If you're serious about the exercises, you will see results. There's additional information on a basic weight-training routine, diet, and cardiovascular workouts. The layout is simple and the language is straightforward, nothing intimidating here. If you already have pretty good abdominal shape, go straight for Kurt Brungardt's The Complete Books of Abs.

Summary: This Program Works
Review: I am 5'9" 200, not a thin guy. Used a low carb diet to lose 10 pounds along with this program and in 2 weeks could see real results. My waist is smaller and I see definition in my abdominal area for the first time since my military college days, 35 years ago. The exercises are very well-described, not unusually difficult, and can be done on a living room floor with no equipment. You feel and see the results immediately. I usually complete the third level in 15 minutes. I have never written an online review before but was so pleased with this book and the results I felt that I should. For me it was money well-spent.

Summary: Great book, great programs, lots of info
Review: This is an amazing book. Don't listen to any of the bad reviews on it, because obviously those people didn't challenge their abs with enough reps. It's definately worth $10.47. It comes with so much information on how to achieve a healthy body, and is really quite interesting. Definately my favorite Ab book and I would suggest it to anyone.

Summary: Good info..overpriced...
Review: When I first got this book I was very dissapointed, it is a very slim book with large type-fonts, lots of pictures and some pages only have a few words on them. Then I took six weeks to try out the program that this book teaches, it is a rather easy program to follow but it did help to improve my ab strength although it has by no means made me "ripped". In short, this is a small overpriced book with some good information in it.

Summary: THE REAL LOW DOWN ON ABS AND AB TRAINING BOOKS
Review: You've seen the ripped and chisled torsos gracing virtually each and every issue of Men's Health Magazine at the newsstands on your way to the donut and coffee cart each morning. Now find out just how it's done. Unfortunately, there's no magical way to a slimmer waist or well-defined abdominal muscles but there is a man who can tell you the most efficient and reliable way to do it. Fitness guru and trainer Kurt Brungardt, author of "3-Minute Abs" and "The Complete Book of Abs" finally gets it right in this perfectly sized, concisely written book on building a strong mid-section. It's not a book about turning into a hunk from a 2-Xist underwear ad in under six weeks. What it is, however, is a book about adjusting your lifestly into one which creates the best possible environment for you to implement a regular and conscious program of healthy eating, excercising and living. Kurt also explains the physiology and psychology behind ab muscle building and fitness training. With a healthy attitude in place, the excercises and detailed programs in the book become potent tools for quickly building strong, defined ab muscles. Even after the first week, the excercises begin deeply working all of the right mucles...and oh how you feel it. But Kurt encourages you to go beyond the pain (discussing the advantages of "good pain" versus "bad pain") by teaching you how to visualize the muscle groups being worked and how they grow stronger. Don't waste your time or money on the others. None will compare in outlining a complete program with superb visual representations and frank, "tell-it-like-it-is" discussions on workouts, diet and living. This IS simply the finest book on ab training to buy.
