Want to get ripped? Get Doug's Book. Apr 27, 2008
By Laurie Bell
"Author of the 2006 release: Lose the Lies, Lose the Weight: The Ultimate Guide to Permanent Weight Loss"
"Valuable information in Somach Flattening. It is like a fitness textbook that has been condensed and then rewritten for busy people. I enjoyed Doug's no-frills, plain language, get results approach. The section on changing behavior could have been a book in itself. Doug gives specific examples of how to change your mindset to get the results you desire. I highly recommend Stomach Flatttening for fitness beginners or athletes who want stronger, slimmer midriffs."

No need for costly machines - get great abs with this book! Mar 02, 2012
By Kathleen Casey
"Kathi Casey, The Healthy Boomer Body Expert"
Stomach Flattening is about much more than crunches. In this book, Doug Setter covers breathing exercises that help reduce stress while at the same time tightening our abs. He also provides great information on proper posture, the benefits of eating protein and raw fruits and veggies, and even gives readers some ideas on how to motivate themselves to exercise - even if just for 10 minutes.
Doug included pictures and illustrations that demonstrate how to complete these exercises, some of which you may never have heard of, like the stomach vacuum breathing practice that I learned as a Yoga instructor called Uddiyana Bandha. He has chosen a fabulous group of simple exercises that you can do in only a few minutes a day to keep your core body strong throughout your life. Try them - you'll like them!

A Book You Will Keep Mar 11, 2010
By Carrol Wolverton
Doug Setter's exercise book on stomach flattening covers a whole lot more than the needed exercises. He starts with posture. Turns out Mother was right about standing up straight. Holding proper body alignment improves functioning and how you feel. How easy it is to slump through the day at home, at the computer, at work. Doug recommends giving your lifestyle a boost by purposely standing straight. Correct posture is not the military attention pose, either. Who knew? Then there's breathing correctly. Doing both not only benefits the body but the mind as well. You will feel better.
He then demonstrates via pictures and descriptions how to systematically pull in and strengthen stomach muscles. Step-by-step, the reader works systematically through his routine and makes it his or her own. He recommends giving oneself rewards as you achieve exercise goals. Not only does he tell you the exercises needed, he gives you the rationale, so you understand how and why it works.
He discusses at length proper eating for your body type and shares his "tricks" for staying on a program of self-improvement. A major enemy is white flour and sugar, and he recommends increased consumption of healthy, fresh, high-fiber foods. You will keep this book.

WOW! I've read my share of exercise books and this one definitely tops the list. Doug Setter covers EVERYTHING you need to know about getting and maintaining a flat stomach, from exercise and breathing, to proper nutrition and developing proper habits.
