The PAIN was excruciating!
As I lay on the sidelines, I could see the dent in my shin bone…I knew something was terribly wrong.
Yet, instead of being rushed to the hospital, my coach had me sit on the sidelines for the next 65 minutes in agony until the soccer game from which I had just been removed was over.
Moments earlier, I came rushing out of my net to intercept a 50-50 ball…and was kicked right through the shin pad of my right leg…shattering my shin bone.
On that Sunday afternoon (when I just 15 years old), during the blazing humid Toronto summer heat, I couldn’t have imagined that breaking my leg would lead to one of the greatest “ab training” discoveries that would later help thousands of men and women lose belly fat and get a stronger core…

How My Broken Leg Can Help YOU Burn More Belly Fat And Get a Stronger Core
After breaking my leg and then finally arriving at the hospital – and waiting another 2 hours before being seen by the doctor – my leg was eventually wrapped in a cast from hip to toes.
I was out of commission for at least 3 months. And it would likely take another 6 months to get build my weakened muscles again.
At least that’s what my doctor said. And to be honest, I believed him. I thought the rest of that summer (and year) would be a write-off. I did my best to stay positive but it was tough.
But I could never have expected what happened next…
It was 3 months after the accident and I returned to the hospital to have my cast removed…
As the doctor clipped away the cast…
I saw my “repaired” leg emerge…and my jaw literally dropped to the floor.
My once muscular and fit leg had dwindled away to nothing. It was no bigger than my forearm!
I was shocked…
And any glimmer of excitement that I had had for getting my cast off was instantly shot down by what I was now looking at.
As I hobbled down the hallways of the hospital I felt like an alien. Everyone was looking at me and I felt more self-conscious than ever.
Things only got worse when I made my way outside into the “real world”.
My mom was at work so I had to take the bus back home...
I slowly made my way onto the bus and grabbed a seat. I sat there for the next 30 minutes feeling embarrassed, as strangers stared at my leg as if it were from another planet.
And Just When I Thought Things
Couldn’t Get Any Worse…They Did!
That night, I was in my room doing some rehab exercises, when my mom walked in holding the phone in her hand…
My girlfriend had called to see how I was doing…or so I thought.
But I was quickly blindsided as she told me it would be best if we were “just friends”.
3 months ago, my leg was broken. Now, my heart was.
To make matters worse, I then found out from a friend that she had left me for another guy who was more “her type”.
And oddly enough this “other guy” had something I deeply wanted (other than my now ex-girlfriend). I’ll tell you what that was in a second…
Yet, I had to keep moving forward and get my leg back into shape so I could look and function normally again.
And That’s When It Happened…
I was introduced to a personal trainer, named Brian, who specialized in rehabilitation. For the first time in my life, I was introduced to a “gym” and how to workout.
Up until this point, I had been active playing lots of soccer yet I had never set foot in a gym.
This is when the secret to getting toned abs and losing belly fat started to reveal itself…
Since I had no idea how to workout, Brian literally held my hand to walk me through everything I had to do to get my leg back to normal again.
And it wasn’t what I expected.
I thought I could just sit on a machine and take my leg through the motions until exhaustion.
Boy was I ever wrong.
My trainer Brian told me, “Yuri, the reason your leg feels dead and your muscle has wasted away is because it’s muscles are not activating properly. That’s what happens when it hasn’t been used for months (even days or weeks).”
What the heck did that mean? I thought.
He went on to tell me that if I simply did the rehab exercises he prescribed without knowing how to activate my muscles properly I would waste my time and possibly do even more damage to my leg.
Brian went on to explain…
“It’s like tying your shoes – if you tie the knot without first tightening the laces, then your feet won’t be properly supported. And if you do any activity like that then you’re a ticking time bomb for a foot or ankle injury.”
Wow!
I never thought of it that way.
And with that, Brian went on to show me how to do each exercise properly – by first activating my muscles appropriately – and then executing the movement.
It normally takes about 6 months (post cast removal) for most broken legs to fully regain their original muscle and strength…
Using what I had learned from Brian, my leg was back to normal in just 3 months!
In fact, my leg (and my entire body) was stronger and fitter than ever before thanks to this “Metabolic Compounding Effect” – as he called it.
That September, when I returned to school after a summer’s worth of rehab and training, I was feeling and looking great.
But then I saw my “ex” and her new boyfriend…
They were holding hands and making out. She was caressing his stomach. Turns out this guy had abs of steel. No wonder she fell for this guy. He was a stud.
He was in my gym class and I saw him in the change room without his shirt. He was ripped. And everyone knew it. He did too.
He beamed with confidence and all the girls flocked to him like mosquitoes around a campfire. He was what you would call a “chick magnet”. His athletic build and rock solid abs gave him radiant confidence that helped him get whatever he wanted.
I’ll be honest…
I Was Jealous Because
I Didn’t Have a Body That Got Noticed
Even though I had always done lots of sit-ups in my soccer training, I never really saw any visible results. My core always felt a little mushy.
Then I thought…
Could Brian’s “Metabolic Compounding Effect” – that worked like magic on my leg – also work wonders on my abs?
It turns out the answer was a big YES!
And Brian showed me how to do it.
Once again, I was floored by the results.
Within just a few weeks, my core went from flat and mushy to toned, strong abs that could handle even a boxer’s punch!
My posture improved and I radiated confidence. I felt unstoppable and my friends (and other girls) couldn’t help but notice. I literally became a different person simply by getting my core into great shape.
And The Crazy Part is That
I Never Did a Single Sit-Up!
The truth is that I did everything from my house and never needed to set foot in the gym. Brian showed me how to turn my mushy stomach into rock solid abs in just 3 quick core-focused workouts per week.
Within just 2 weeks, my abs felt tighter. By 4 weeks, I could SEE the definition in my abs that had eluded me for years.
Finally, I could take my shirt off without feeling embarrassed.
And then something even more amazing happened…
We were playing touch football in a gym class on a warm day in late September. My ex-girlfriend was on the opposite team…
I was playing wide receiver and made myself available to catch the perfect pass. The quarterback saw me, threw the ball, and I caught it. I turned and started running to the end zone but just as I did, my “ex” was right there.
She ran into me, trying to grab my flag, but all she got was a brush of my newfound abs.
I was able to escape without losing a flag and I ran the ball into the end zone for a touchdown.
It was awesome.
My “ex” came up to me after the game to tell me there was something different about me. She asked me if I had been working out. She told me that I looked great just oozed with confidence. She liked it.
So did I.
I said thanks and strutted right past her back to the change room.
Right then, I knew she regretted her decision to leave me. But I was on cloud nine. I didn’t care.
My newfound confidence. My tight and toned abs. They were all thanks to what I learned from Brian about how to train properly.
I was so inspired by his teachings that I later went on to become a personal trainer and leading strength & conditioning coach helping thousands of men and women and hundreds of elite athletes train smarter to look and feel incredible…especially when nothing else seemed to work.
Now, I’m Here to Share This Very Same Ab Training Secret With You
Specifically, I want to help you burn more belly fat and get abs you can feel proud of using the “metabolic compounding effect” that no one seems to even know about.
This “effect” combined with my proprietary 3-phase ab training system is guaranteed to get youvisible results without killing yourself in the gym and without ever doing a single back-breaking sit-up.
If you want to feel great when you look in the mirror…or be able to try on any piece of clothing at your favorite store…then you’ll love the fact that:
I’ve condensed my years of learning and the rarely-used “metabolic compounding” secret inside a proprietary program called the “Amazing Abs Solution”.
And before I tell you more about it, let me quickly tell you…
The 2 BIG MISTAKES Keeping You From The Results You Want
BIG MISTAKE #1: Your Core Simply Isn’t Working Properly
Did you know that your core (i.e. all the muscles of your midsection) are at the foundation of every movement you make and they are the first group of muscles to fire during ANY movement?
And did you know that if these muscles aren’t working properly, it doesn’t matter how many ab exercises you do because you will never get the waist shrinking results you really want.
Just as the muscles in my “broken” leg weren’t working properly after being in a cast, your core muscles are likely experiencing the same thing…
Especially if you’ve spent any amount of time:
- Sitting (especially more than 2 hours per day) – since this position puts your core muscles to sleep…
- Doing sit-ups – since they impose excess stress on your hip muscles that further weaken your core…
- Working out with machines – since, like with sitting, these don’t require your core muscles to activate…
- Dealing with back pain or injuries – since pain alters your core muscle “firing” patterns…
And doing old school ab exercises like sit-ups is NOT solving the problem!
In fact, research from the Journal of Bodywork and Movement Therapies shows that simply trying to strengthen your ab muscles using conventional ab exercises has ZERO effect on your abdominal development and that doing so can even worsen your posture and make your existing joint problems hurt more.
The GOOD NEWS is that this research shows that if you retrain your core muscles to be the first to fire and you train them to work together like I teach you how to do in the Amazing Abs Solution workouts, then every movement you make whether in the gym or anywhere will be improved.
This means reduced issues with your existing injuries, less chance of getting injured again and even better... The side effect for having a properly functioning core is a slimmer waistline and toned or even 6-pack abs.
Now the only way to fix this mistake is by using “metabolic compounding”, which not only transformed my mushy leg into rock solid muscle but also turned my weak core into a trim, toned waistline.
And most importantly, it can help you do the same. And I’ll show you exactly what it is and how to use it in just a second…
But first, you also need to avoid this second common mistake...
BIG MISTAKE #2: You’re Doing the Right Exercises...Incorrectly
You may have noticed that many workout enthusiasts, fitness magazines, and personal trainers are starting to tell you to avoid things like crunches and sit-ups. And that’s great because of the damage these old school ab exercises can have on your lower back. Not to mention they do nothing to burn belly fat.
Instead, the common advice is to now use exercises like planks and other non-sit-up based movements.
However, there is still a problem with this...
To get waist-shrinking results, you can’t just simply follow the latest ab workout from your favorite fitness magazine BECAUSE it doesn’t instruct you how to properly activate your core muscles, and thus do each exercise properly.
Just as we learn to crawl, then walk, then run when we’re just a baby, your body has to go through an EXACT sequence of exercises in order to properly activate your core muscles...
Very much like the “shoelace analogy” that Brian had told me about for getting my leg muscles to fire properly.
The trick is... when your core stops functioning properly the only way to reactivate it is to usespecific foundational exercises in a specific sequence and with the right COACHING to ensure you do each one correctly.
When you do this properly, you will reactivate your core and finally get the results you want!
This is exactly how I was able to speed my leg’s recovery (yes, this effect also works on any of the muscles in your body) and get rock solid abs while training far less than most avid gym-goers.
