Hey man,

It’s Mike Chang from Six Pack Shortcuts. And in this short article I want to show you something that most attractive women would find disgusting… In fact, you might be stuck with it right now. And not only is it holding you back from having the ripped abs that you want and that women love… it could also be doing some major damage to your body.

So this is a replica of what 5 pounds of fat looks like… Crazy right? But did you know that the average guy is about 17 pounds over his ideal body weight? THIS is what you’re carrying around on your belly all day!

Most guys just accept that they have belly fat because they don’t know what it looks like inside their bodies. However, once you can see what it looks like, you’ll immediately realize how excess belly fat is slowly destroying you from the inside out!

2015-06-24_1503

Here is one way to think about it… Carrying around an extra 17 pounds of belly fat is equivalent to holding onto 60 sticks of butter! I mean, you’re carrying this on your stomach… and I know that you’re smart enough to know that this just can’t be healthy.

Now, most guys out there are trying to burn off their belly fat with crunches and situps… and perhaps you are trying to do the same thing.

But did you know how many crunches you would need to do just to burn off one pound of that fat?

100? 200? A thousand… Nope!

Men’s Health magazine reported that it actually takes 22,000 crunches to burn off one single pound of belly fat!

Twenty two THOUSAND! Whoa!…  What a waste of time and energy!

That means that if you did 30 crunches a day, it would take you exactly 2 years just to burn off 1 pound of fat. And since the average guy has about 17 lbs. of fat to lose… at 30 crunches a day, it would take about 34 years!

Screw that… you’ll be an old dude by then!

The Bottom Line is, you can do as many crunches as you want, but it’ll never help you get the body you want. The truth is, the only way to get Ripped Six Pack Abs is to get rid of the layer of belly fat that’s covering them up.

So what do we need to do to get rid of belly fat as soon as possible? Well it basically comes down to three things. The first two you probably already know about… it’s working out and eating right.

However, what you probably didn’t know is that you also need to… Control your hormones. In fact, doing this is even more important than the first two combined.

Here’s why…

You see, the reason why we workout and eat right is to get our body to do one simple thing… which is produce the fat burning hormones we need.

With that said, if you were able to take a shortcut and control your hormones… the fat burning results you want would happen way faster!

Now there are a few different hormones for different functions, but when it comes to fat loss there is one specific hormone that you will need to focus on — Leptin.

Leptin is considered by many medical researchers as the king of all fat burning hormones. It literally controls and commands all your other fat burning hormones to do their jobs and optimizes fat burning.

However if your body doesn’t have enough Leptin, not only will burning even one ounce of fat seem impossible… it could actually cause your body to store additional belly fat – making you look even fatter.

And you definitely don’t want that. However this is actually what’s happening to most guys who have belly fat right now, and maybe you can relate to gaining fat in this way.

Now, the reason why guys just like you have belly fat caused by low leptin levels is because they unintentionally damaged their body’s hormone production…

You see, low calorie diets and doing the wrong types of workouts… such as long sessions of cardio and crunches, can shut down the production of your body’s leptin.

So what do you need to do to fix this? Well here are three instant tips you can do today to start increasing your leptin levels.

1. Avoid dieting.

Low calorie diets or starving yourself can cause long term damage to your body’s leptin production. This means your leptin levels will be forced to stay low even when you go back to eating normally. The most shocking part about this is that leptin damage may start happening after just one day of dieting.

2. Eat foods that increase your leptin production.

Now, by regularly eating high amounts of the specific foods I’ve listed below, you’ll quickly be able to get your leptin levels back up and finally get the ripped body you want.

  • Fatty fish
  • Spinach
  • Beef liver

Now my final tip is actually what me and my team personally do to boost our leptin levels. First off, following tip 1 is fine… I hate dieting anyways. However tip 2 is a bit more difficult for me. The truth is I’m not the biggest fan of fatty fish, spinach, or the suggested – raw beef liver. Now eating pounds of fish and raw liver is definitely out of the question for me. But if you like them… go for it.

However, for those who are like me and would rather eat something else… I suggest using ingredients that contain the same type of leptin boosting nutrients that you’d find in those 3 leptin boosting food.

Now, to get those specific ingredients can be difficult and expensive. And most importantly it could be dangerous getting these ingredients from unregulated clinics in foreign countries.

So before you look up the leptin boosting ingredients for beef liver or fish head soup… I’ve actually had a regulated supplement factory in the United States put together a small batch of these ingredients for me and my team to take.

This way I can keep my leptin levels high, stay ripped year round, and not worry about eating foods I don’t like.

Now don’t worry I’m willing to share…

So if you’re looking to get ripped six pack abs, simply try these Leptin Boosting Ingredients I’ve put together.

Now I’m not sure how much is left because I’ve only made a very limited supply for me, my team, and a select few clients.

So go get the body you want by increasing your leptin levels right now.

Train Hard,

  2. Some pretty bizarre-looking foods on display under the “Avoid dieting” bit. Probably more apt to MAKE people diet!

  4. “I’ve actually had a regulated supplement factory in the United States put together a small batch of these ingredients for me and my team to take. This way I can keep my leptin levels high, stay ripped year round, and not worry about eating foods I don’t like.”
    The special “ingredients” are: clen, tren, winstrol.

      3. while this gif is lulzy that looks like 335. Incline Barbell Front Raise at 335 lbs? Belly or no, that is some superman shit.

    4. Take Kratom and Mike Chang’s Six Pack Shortcuts Ancient Chinese Secret Drink

        1. If you are looking for extra paycheck on the side of about $50 to $300 every day for doing work over internet from your house for few h every day then try this…

  6. I think this article is wrong. Obese people have lots of leptin and insulin in their bodies. Insulin blocks the leptin receptors. So taking more leptin is useless.
    Just like a diabetic that has insulin resistance, injecting more insulin just increases the tolerance. Makes it worse. Stop doing what causes you to release high insulin in the first place by eliminating carbs.
    There is the answer. High insulin levels blocks leptin receptors. Prevent high insulin to begin with. How? Stop eating foods that spike blood glucose. What foods spike blood glucose? See above.

  7. This post is 100% confirmed-reptilian-humanoid-shapeshifter TRUE. I did
    Patrick Bateman’s morning routine for two days and now I look like Lena Dunham. Wait, maybe THAT’S why she looks that way.

    1. I put instant coffee in a microwave and went back in time (Steve Wright joke)

  8. Crunches won’t make your fat. But they only exercise the lower abs, your waistline. They won’t develop your upper abs which is what you need to do for a six pack.

  10. But I thought SJW’s told me being a fatass piece of shit was healthy and beautiful

  12. Here’s how to get abs:
    Step 1: Do difficult exercises for them-hanging leg raises, L-Sits, inverted situps, deadlifts, squats, overhead lifts.
    Step 2: There is no step 2.

    2. Dragonflys (laying on your back and doing leg raises)
      Those alone will do 75% of the work. It’s a little stressful on the Lumbar region though.

    1. I actually don’t, I deliberately avoid it.
      Drink beer and ride bikes, and be the most awesome motherfucker in the universe.

        3. Yes, I am actually Pimp soon to be author. Read about in my soon-to-be-published-in-e-book memoirs, “How to Run Social Justice Whores for Oral Fun and Mega Profit: learn about the world’s second oldest profession and how it can fulfil you are a man in profits and pleasure, even bitches that ain’t ‘yo hos’ will love it.”

  14. Alright guys I figured it out.
    Its my theory that Billy Mays reincarnated himself as mike chang but instead of selling useful products that actually work he sells us lies and bullshit to punish everyone for taking his advertising and products for granted.

  16. I’ve got to lose about 2 pounds of belly fat and I already eat enough spinach and fish heck its almost all I eat but I need to lay off the breads and sugars

    1. “Two and a Half Men” was originally a show only about Mike Chang.

  19. Wait until you see the next weeks Zumba ad here on RoK. I’m so gonna hit that class.

  20. Damn.. Mike looks a lot older in those first pics than in previous posts..
    I guess not even Lord Chang can resist the passage of time….

  21. how to actually get abs:
    don’t have a layer of fat covering them.
    that will be $400 pls

    1. Exactly. Always eat your five meals a day. Otherwise your metabolism will be fucked FOREVER 😛

  26. Better hurry up. Mike Chang doesn’t know how much limited batch of magic leptin boosters are left in his Prohibition era garage.

  28. Wow thank you Mike Chang for putting together a regulated supplement factor with a limited supply and also thank you for informing us that you don’t know how much you have left. We all know this is actually a reflection on your poor stock checking skills and not an attempt to cause people to rush and buy your super cool leptin.

    1. He needs to try sooo much harder. His “Marketing” comes off as begging imo.

      1. Marketing 101 at any community college could help avoid this marketing desaster.

        1. I hear you, but there’s not much one can do when they’re peddling feces as their product. Snake Oil Salesmen are a dime a dozen, he’s no different.

  30. Crunches are NOT for burning calories.They are for building up pectorial muscular mass.For having a six pack you need to do two things.First get ripped means under 12% body fat and build up muscle mass in the belly area.Getting ripped works always with the same principle take in less calories than you actually need hence the body burns fat and to a lesser degree muscular mass.By the way what you eat and train you can control how much of that lost body mass is fat.

    2. AS Rippetoe says, when you can deadlift 500 pounds…you won’t have to worry about crunches to build up those core muscles

  32. I love Spinach. Changy boy, you’re a hack: you will never see a dime from me.
    Gfy, ydc.

  33. “Now, to get those specific ingredients can be difficult and expensive. And most importantly it could be dangerous getting these ingredients from unregulated clinics in foreign countries.”
    => And Mike Chang is trustworthy?

  34. “Now I’m not sure how much is left because I’ve only made a very limited supply for me, my team, and a select few clients.”
    => The illusion of scarcity 😉
    => Just imagine a BMW executive stating “Now I’m not sure how much cars are left because we have only made a very limited supply for me, my team, and a select few clients.”

  35. By the way, Mike Chang, you are wrong when it comes to your article’s title. Crunches don’t make anybody fat, they simply don’t help much when weight loss is the goal.
    But according to your logic walking and gardening will probably also make people fat.

  39. Just look at the recent articles here: Return of Kings turns more and more into some kind of Cosmopolitan for men.

    1. If your face is puffy in the morning do you put on an ice pack while doing those stomach crunches??
