Well, here are my final thoughts on this program.

RevABS creator Brett Hoebel designed this program to help with the #1 area will ALL strive for – the ABS!

Perfect, count me in - here’s my story.

Just recently I completed my round of RevABS, what’s RevABS did you say? RevABS is a fitness program put out by Beachbody just last fall.

Brett Hoebel (well known fitness trainer also referred to as “the dues collector”) incorporates a variety of cardio intervals, strength training, ab core moves along with proper nutrition to help burn the fat off so you can finally reveal those ever so elusive six pack abs. Brett does this through a proven traing technique he calls “abcentrics”.

Though I certainly can’t sit here and rant and rave about my final numbers  and say I now have got that six pack I’ve been seeking for some time now (years I guess). Nevertheless I am still happy with my progress due to the fact that my eating clean through the second round of this program was just not there due to other stresses in my life during that time. No no I’m not making excuses for myself – that’s the truth, so I could not possibly expect the world from this program or any other program for that matter not doing what I knew I should be doing.

Nutrition during your intense training is just as important if not more important than your workouts!! Period, nuff said.

But I have to guess that what I went through while doing this program is probably no different than what many of you have probably gone through and probably still continue with! We all have different issues in our life that can rear it’s ugly head from time to time and get in the way of our progress BUT it’s so important to just keep going no matter what!! It may seem like your wasting your time at that moment only putting in maybe 50 – 60% of your full commitment either to the workouts or eating clean but looking back it it would have been easier to just give up and quit (because that’s what the little guy in your head was telling you to do – right?) but where would I have been?? Eating worse, not working out, putting on the weight? Would that have been better than just pushing play doing your best and getting some small POSITIVE results at the end? NOT!! I’m so glad I hung in there through it all and came out on top, now I’m fired up to start my second round of P90X!

Here are my final numbers for the program.

Start of RevABS               After 45 Days             After 90 Days

Fat %               = 12.4               11.5                             10.0     -2.4%

Water               = 61.8               62.6                             64.1     +2.3%       

Muscle Mass     = 69.4               68.7                            72.0     +2.6 Pounds

Weight             = 164.6            160.2                          162.2    - 2.4 pounds

Bottom line – This is a great program in which I thought had just a couple flaws. For anyone that’s not quite ready to take the jump into say Insanity or P90X this would be a great program for you to help build your fitness base. Don’t get me wrong this program isn’t exactly easy by any means, just watch my workout review videos.  I will certainly go back to this program in time because for the most part I really enjoyed most of the workouts Brett has put together and you WILL get results. How much results? Well that’s up to you to give it the most you can if you do that you won’t be dissapointed

So for ALL of you out there even if things aren’t going perfect for you at the moment or to your original expectations that’s no reason to give up and quit – where would that put you? Further ahead in your journey? Just remember it’s the little positive results that keep you on track to big gains and your ultimate goal:)

Check this out!

Fitness guru Brett Hoebel creator of the RevABS program put out by Beachbody was recently featured on the Good Morning America show that I would like to share with you. 

Brett sums up nicely why this program is so effective and gives you the three most important keys to burning that stubborn layer of fat from around your mid section to see those abs that we all desire to have show. This is an absolute must see:)

Brett also runs through a couple of exercises from his RevABS program to give you a little taste as to what this program is like. Brett seems like a very down to earth guy who knows what the hell he’s doing and talking about and has the ripped body to back it up.

Well take a look for yourself; I think once you watch it you’ll be hooked! 

Having just completed my RevABS program, if you would like more information regarding what each workout in this program is like then please go to the top of this page and click on the RevABS reviews tab. This is where you can find most of the workouts in this great program that I have made while doing this program to help give you a detailed look to see if this program is right for you.

Hope you enjoy them and if you think your ready to make that change to a new you just click on the shop for products button on the right side of this page to get started today.

I will be adding a post very soon to discuss my RevABS journey and to give you my honest opinion on what I thought as well as if I would do the program again and was it worth the money I paid? Stay tuned….

Till next time.

Take care,

From May 3rd through June 2nd, Beachbody will feature a special subscribers-only preview of the hottest new Beachbody® title, TurboFire®.

New and existing Tony One on One subscribers will get a full sample workout from TurboFire, the new High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) program. If you’ve been looking for a killer cardio program, this is it. High-impact interval training has been shown to rev up your metabolism and keep it revved up, long after your workout is finished. In fact, a TurboFire workout can burn up to 9 times more fat and calories than a traditional cardio workout.

TurboFire is a great idea for P90X® users who want to add more cardio to their regimen and an excellent “graduate” course for Turbo Jam®, Hip Hop Abs®, or Slim in 6® enthusiasts.
