Book Reviews of The Body Sculpting Bible For Abs: Women's Edition

Book Review: If only I had known...
Summary: 5 Stars

It was backwards of me to wait five years, after getting The Body Sculpting Bible for Abs, before also getting The Body Sculpting Bible for Women, Revised Edition: The Way to Physical Perfection! Even though following the exercises in the ab sculpting book works amazingly well, if I had also known the information given in the body sculpting book along with it, I would have maximized the potential results possible for my abs!

Jame Villepigue explains in detail what each ab exercise does; plus, he provides helpful tips to follow. The ab workout book does not give anywhere near as much vital overall information about exercise in general as does his body sculpting book. Now that I have this added information to go with my ab book, I'm already starting to see and feel the difference its making in only six weeks into doing the workouts compared to how I was doing my routines five years ago with less understanding about what and why I was doing things the way I did.

It's true that there are exercises which involve exercise equipment normally found only in a gym, but there is plenty of information in these books to make great use of the routines with what you do have available to use. For example, doing the High Chair Scissors exercises can be done if you have a tree nearby with a couple of branches available to rest your arms on (placing folded towels underneath to cushion the pressure).

The most useful equipment to achieve the best results are fortunately also the least expensive. Having only an exercise ball, floor mat, and weights are enough to get you great results. So don't let the lack of expensive equipment available have you thinking that these 'sculpting' books are not worth the money.

Understanding why and how important it is to have 'periodization training' (i.e., 'muscle confusion') incorporated into workout plans can make all the difference in the world, especially if you're the kind of person who needs to know about the details behind everything you do as much as possible in order to stay motivated.

Summary of The Body Sculpting Bible For Abs: Women's Edition

Despite all the bare midriffs dancing across MTV, or even walking into the Emmys and Oscars, there has been no book for women looking to develop sleek and sexy abs. But now there's a workout plan for women who aspire to look like Britney, Madonna, or Janet Jackson-or who just have to get ready for halters, crop tops, and all those revealing summer fashions.

The Body Sculpting Bible for Abs: Women's Edition by James Villepigue is the first book on abdominal training written just for women. Following on the phenomenal success of The Body Sculpting Bible for Women, author James Villepigue has put together a complete exercise and nutrition program designed specifically for women seeking a sleek waistline.

A key element to success is identifying and toning all the muscle groups. The traditional regimen of crunches and more crunches works just one set of muscles, the rectus abdominis, but The Body Sculpting Bible for Abs reveals that the abs are not one layer of muscle, but several overlapping layers: the rectus abdominis, the internal and external obliques, and the often-overlooked transverse abdominis (TVA). All of these muscles must be exercised in order to achieve sleek, toned, sexy abs.

What's more, The Body Sculpting Bible for Abs goes beyond just abdominal exercises, offering exercises that work the entire core. "Without dietary modifications and total body workouts to promote fat loss," Villepigue advises, "no amount of abdominal training will miraculously melt away fat. In fact, people who work so hard on those crunches may actually be promoting postural imbalances that can set them up for future injury."

The Body Sculpting Bible for Abs exercises and 14-Day Workouts are a safe and holistic program of ab work that helps women reach their goals safely and quickly. Designed specifically for women, the unique 14-Day Workout has a progressive, ever-changing program that provides the variety and motivation needed to get results in record time. The exercises work all of the abdominal muscles, as well as the rest of the body's "core," to produce a lean and sexy waistline.

The Body Sculpting Bible for Women, the best-selling first book in this series, was a run-away hit with exercisers across the country. Now the author of this proven workout plan helps women identify and work all of the muscles of the abdomen, to create a head-turning mid-section.
