Franky, I’m shocked.
His abs look pretty awesome for a former “fatty” as he calls himself… and at the age of 46!
What’s even more shocking is that he trains his abs in 3 minutes, 3 days per week.
Here’s how he does it… in his own words.
Oh, and be SURE to visit his homepage for more info!

Better Abs in 3 Minutes

7 Minute Muscle
Abs.
Everyone wants a tighter tummy.
Guys want a six-pack… ladies want a slim, firm waistline… and yes, some want a six-pack too.
Why be sexist? ; )
So needless to say people are freaked out to find that I train my abs in about 3 minutes.
Total.
Here’s how:
7 Minute Muscle <—discount
Let me give you the dirty facts about my abs.
They are the worst part of my body… and one of the best parts at the same time.
The “worst” bit has nothing to do with muscles or even bodyfat most of the time… but SKIN.
Remember, I was obese… 46-inch waist and 38 percent bodyfat.
So my skin got pretty messed up. It never quite recovered from that and I have a “bit” of loose skin around my abs.
Drives me nuts. I may have it removed! ; )
But other than THAT… my abs are pretty good.
Here’s a pretty recent shot (after a workout taken with an iPhone… so hardly a professional shot… but you get the idea… )
<img src=”http://www.7minutemuscle.com/images/jon_gym_bw.jpg” alt=”Jon’s Abs” />
This is after THREE MINUTES of ab training done 2-3 times a week.
Let me spell out my thoughts on this:
If you are training your abs longer than 7 minutes a week you are doing something wrong… or you’re just wasting your time.
Sorry to break it to you, but abs develop fast.
It’s the BODYFAT you need to focus on.
Still, you need abs… and my HDT-Style Training in 7 Minute Body and 7 Minute Muscle will get you those abs uber-fast:
7 Minute Muscle <—about HDT
Go watch and read how it works now.
Before you do, let me give you a substitute exercise for one of the three I recommend during my “3-Minute Abs” routine (found in both books on the page above.)
Hanging leg raises… they are the best when done the way I show you in my book.
BUT some people do not have the gym or the straps I recommend.
So do this instead: Leg raises on a Swiss Ball, bench or even off the floor.
Here’s the tip: Raise the legs, pause at the top for 2 seconds and blow ALL of your air out. Contract your abs HARD at the top.
Then and ONLY then lower the legs slowly.
If you do this right there’s no way to get more than 15 reps. I get about 8 before my abs give out!
That’s all it takes. You do NOT need “high reps” to develop your abs. In fact LOW reps work better…
You just need resistance… and my way of training gives you plenty.
This means a LOT less time doing the exercises and a LOT MORE time enjoying the nice set of tummy muscles you’ve built.
Sounds like a plan.
P.S. Here’s the latest for those interested in my ongoing legal issues with selling rights to a publisher.
This concerns YOU as the price for 7 Minute Muscle and 7 Minute Body will NOT be under my control as soon as the contracts are signed.
This was supposed to happen today… but as luck (for you!) would have it, I got caught in Austin traffic at 5:30pm and missed my 6:00 meeting with the publishers.
The president leaves town tonight-Sunday.
SO NOW… I can extend my half-price (more than half-off the Advanced Videos!) for a few more days…
… so go here:
7 Minute Muscle <—discount
P.P.S. In case you’re wondering, this is not a clever marketing ploy… 7MM and 7MB are both being acquired by a publisher.
The recognize the amazing benefits this style of workouts offer anyone at any age… fatburning and muscle-shaping…
Otherwise they would not be writing such a nice check… : )
I bought a Jeep with it. So it’s not making me a millionaire or anything, but it’s nice to have my hard work rewarded!
Even nicer than that, I get the chance to almost give away my “baby” to you if you don’t have it already…
When the deal is done, here is what you can expect to happen:
1. The page below WILL change, and that includes the price… they think the price is not right. (I think that means too low… ha… ; )
2. The specials will end due to the fact they will send millions of people to the site rather than a few hundred thousand (my readers and my] affiliates send about that much.)
3. The book will end up in some bookstore eventually… and that’s FINE unless they want to alter the content… which I have a provision to prevent.
Sorry to ramble on about this, but I want you to know the integrity of the guy sending you emails every day…
Sure, I like to make a living. Who doesn’t?
But I won’t sell my soul to do it.
I won’t give up what I KNOW works to make a buck or two… so that means I maintain TOTAL creative control over these books even after the publishers take over.
In fact I’m negotiating a position WITH this firm so I can make SURE I maintain control… and folks, I HATE working for other people!
But it is worth it… IF I can keep the quality of the materials where they are.
And they are 100% solid.
And right now they are 200% cheaper than normal… so if you don’t know what all the fuss is about with all of this “7 minute workout” stuff (I prefer the 14-minute advanced workouts, which you can get too) …
then hop over here:

Okay, so Jon Benson just emailed this to me marked “urgent”…
I can see why after reading it…
So will you.

To: Michael
From: Jon
( This is real fast because I’m meeting with the owner of the publishing company who purchased the rights to 7 Minute Muscle in 20 minutes… )
Did you see this? –
I know I have a few more days before XYZ Company (the name is legally withheld) takes over my baby, “7 Minute Muscle.”
Financially that is.
I still have total creative control. I demanded it.
Most authors give that up but I took less cash and refused.
Why?
Because I know publishers. Unless they let me get involved (a possibility) they will mess it all up just to try and make it “more marketable.”
Forget that — it works JUST FINE the way it is.
We’re trying to work out a deal tonight to see if I can keep my readers on the “specials” list… but I don’t know how that will go down.
What I DO KNOW is THIS:
I lowered the price of 7 Minute Muscle by almost half, cut the Advanced 7MM Videos down by OVER half, and tossed in “7 Minute Body”, the in-home version of 7 Minute Muscle…. FREEE….
That’s saving your readers almost a hundred bucks if they want everything…
If ANYONE has been waiting to grab a copy of the world’s BEST time-saving workouts for rapid muscle-growth and fat-loss so they could save on the price, this could be the LAST CHANCE for quite awhile – and possibly forever.
Talk later Michael,
Jon
P.S. I didn’t give up creative OR customer service so your will always get new editions freee and top-notch support.
P.P.S. If anyone is thinking…
“No way you can workout just 7 minutes and make progress!”
or…
“That’s great for ‘bodybuilders’… but I need to get rid of bodyfat!”
or…
“That sounds too EASY to work.”
Then tell them this:
“Take Jon up on his 7 Minute Muscle 7-Week Challenge.”
Try it for 7 weeks.
That’s it.
If they do not ADD lean muscle and LOSE unwanted bodyfat I’ll let them KEEP everything and give them all their cash right back.
Just send this out now… this could very well end as of tonight…

One of the biggest myths out there is the myth that eating healthy costs too much.
Just the opposite… and I’ll prove it to you in three ways.
#1: Cash
Here’s some sample figures courtesy of Scott Tousignant’s fitness blog…
: 2 medium size sweet potatoes $1 or… small fries from a fast food joint
: 2 red peppers $1 or… a can of pop
: Bowl of oatmeal with fruit & protein powder $2 or… large bag of chips
: 6 Chicken Breasts $10 or… a sub combo from a fast food joint
: 18 eggs $3.50 or… a burger from a fast food joint
: 2 salmon fillets $15 or… large pizza
: Loaded chicken salad (homemade) $3 or… bag of cookies
: Large bag of oatmeal $3.50 or… 4 chocolate bars
Not much of a comparison, it is?
Yet the foods on the left would feed a family of two or more for 4-7 days… the foods on the right? 2-3 days if you live through it.
Tips to make the most expensive part of eating healthy — the cost of quality meats — go further include…
1. Use tofu fillers in chicken and beef recipes. Even if you hate tofu, you can barely taste the difference when combined properly.
2. Buy your meats in bulk online. You can find less expensive grass-fed beef and naturally-raised chicken and have it delivered to you if you live near a large city. If not, check the local farmers.
3. Eat meat only 3-4 times per week and use black beans with rice or inexpensive tuna for your other days. I eat tuna cooked in a skillet with lots of veggies and some olive oil almost every night and I LOVE the taste!
Jon Benson’s book The Every Other Day Dietplan (video3) has over 40 pages of recipes in it to help you eat healthy and cheap… and you can still eat out and consume your favorite foods several times per week.
#2: Your Health
Do we ‘really’ need to talk about buy new (usually larger) clothes every year or two? Or about the health care costs associated with being even 20 pounds over your ideal weight, let alone more? How about the time you miss from work with excessive colds?
Eating healthy and taking care of your body adds years to your life… and for the record, the years eating poorly takes away from your life, on average, costs each American over 80,000 in medical expenses.
Want to add that to your food budget?
#3: The Big Picture
Anyone who has been fit knows the joy it brings… the freedom you feel from wearing whatever you want… the productivity you see from increased energy… the pace at which you move during the day.
Not only are these gifts priceless, but they are also massive cash-savers. Your productivity alone can add thousands to your bottom line each year, well off-setting any costs associated with eating quality food.
The Bottom Line…
Like any good accountant would suggest, you need to look at your ROI (return on in.vest.ment) if nothing else.
What does in.vest.ing in a better body, greater health, and vibrant energy do for your life? How can that actually translate into more in.come AND less expense?
You will be surprised.
Sincerely,
Michael

Did you read the news?
A few days ago CBS broke the story on a new and shocking journal article.
Naturally they only told half the story.
To save your life (literally) I’ll tell you the half they left off.
First: I have some big news:
Jon Benson’s book “7 Minute Body” (also called “7 Minute Muscle”) is on sale for 61% OFF for the next 7 days.
He does a yearly promo for the book in July (the 7th month… go figure!) as a bit of help for my readers who want the books and the 6 videos that come with it (online) but need a break on the price.
The page with the discount is here:

After you read this newsletter you will want to click that link super-fast… believe me…
Now, the story:
Headline:
“Sitting At Work Ruins Any Benefits Of Workouts”
Sub-headline:
“Risk of death not decreased if you work out but
SIT for 6 hours a day or more, researchers say”
There’s a kernel of truth to this… but a lot of falsehood.
Researchers reported their findings of a 14-year male and female-based study on exercise, sitting down while working or watching TV for more than 6 hours a day, and mortality rates in the American Journal of Epidemiology.
The study was long, detailed, and rather shocking to say the least as far as the results go:
Exercising the way most people exercise did
NOTHING to prevent early death from heart
disease if individuals sit for more than 6 hours
per day.
And most Americans sit for about 11 hours… yikes.
So, throw away your workout gear and toss your gym membership in the garbage if you have a desk job… right?
Not so fast.
Here’s the part the news folks failed to cover:
This research never took into account NUTRITION
or workout plans less than 24.5 MET-hours per week.
The first bit you know all about: Nutrition.
If you read Jon’s newsletters, you know how to eat… but 90% of the people involved in this study probably did not.
It’s highly (in fact, dangerously) doubtful that they were…
1. Eating low-starch meals at least 3-4 days per week;
2. Consuming healthy sources of lean protein at each meal;
3. Consuming healthy fats;
4. And using sugars and starchy carbs only at specific times
as Jon teaches in “The Every Other Day Diet.”
The study only briefly mentions that the subjects ate a “normal diet”… and that could mean anything.
Let me make this clear:
Exercise ONLY works if you have a dietplan that works.
So if you are NOT eating correctly, then yeah… toss the gym membership in the garbage. It will do you little if any good except help you blow off some steam.
However, there’s another VERY important part this study missed.
This part:
“Less than 24.5 MET-hours per week of exercise.”
What the heck does that mean?
“MET” stands for Metabolic Equivalent of Task. This is the energy and oxygen required by the body in the form of exercise to do a specific task as compared to the body at rest.
The body at rest has an MET of 1, roughly speaking.
The exercise performed by the study group was your typical 5-6 day per week bout of running or perhaps some other form of cardio. Weight training? Sure, the old way… with an MET of 4 (i.e. lift, rest, chat on the phone, lift… repeat.)
Now, are you ready for this?
Jon’s style of training, “7 Minute Body”-style, Phase 2 to be specific, has an MET of about 12. TWELVE. And that is two 7-minute bouts, totaling 14 minutes flat in the gym (or at home.) This is done 4 days per week.
He simply follows that by either GXP cardio and brisk walking at least 5 days per week. The walking takes about 50 minutes; the GXP only 9.
That’s IT… and he is a fitness guy… you know, magazines… photo shoots… competitions? Yeah. That kind of fitness guy!
The funny thing is that ANYONE using Phase 2 (and there are grandmothers using it) will have the same MET ranking.
And my MET-hours per week? 32!
This is WELL over and above the average person who is working out LONGER, but not SMARTER.
That’s the key behind the 7MB and 7MM Systems… SMART training, but BRIEF training for maximum muscle shape and definition.
And, if Jon’s health is any indication, the program solves the sitting problem nicely.
He told me he sits at least 12 hours a day. He works at a computer (all sitting) and relaxes at night (usually sitting).
But his intense workouts solve the problem sitting causes… and his nutrition plan takes care of the rest.
So now you can do the same… and this week only (the next 7 days) you can do it for 61% off.
Just go here:

It’s the SMART way to train… and also the healthy way.
P.S. Please do not think that this article is insulting to the average workout enthusiast; not at all. Most people simply don’t have the latest data on brevity and density training that Jon covers in 7 Minute Body (also called 7 Minute Muscle.)
Now you can have it at 61% off… the counter is on this page:
