If you eat less calories than you burn, eventually you will see your "six-pack" Everyone has "Six-pack" (sometimes Seven-pack, or Eight-pack) abs, it's just that the vast majority of them are covered by fat.
Read this, apply it, and you achieve the look you desire:

Actually this is probably more feasible than turning fat into muscle. I think replacing fat with muscle is what we are striving for.
And IronCharles is right. It's just that even then some of us don't have good six-pack genetics. I don't have one at 6% bodyfat (I know because I've been there) In my avatar I'm around 8.5-9% and as you can see, they don't show
Hopefully you'll be one of the lucky ones who has a six-pack in there somewhere

HI Tiff,
I guess by now you kind of got the drift that one can't do this, its a common misconception amongst the uninformed, I hear it all the time.
Just like people say well if you stop lifting all that big muscle you mister have will turn to fat.
Neither is possible because they are made of totally different cells.
Good luck to you and I hope you show off that 6 pack soon.~~~~~~~~~~~Beer nuts $1.25, Deer nuts under a Buck!~~~~~~~~~~~

I think a lot of folks who use the phrase "turn fat into muscle" know that the fat isnt magically turned into muscle, its more a semantics thing. Some do believe that though. They also believe that muscle turns into fat somehow.
But what really happens is, you lose fat, and you gain muscle. Both things will get you a six pack.

Interesting from the article the OP linked:
In my first four months of training alone I personally was able to drop fat while adding 30 lbs of mass to my body without the use of any supplements. I had the pecs, arms and six-pack I wanted in no time at all and I was able to eat the same way I had been for years. So get a good workout guide, get in the gym, and start changing yourself today!
Thirty pounds in four short months, sounds like infomercial material to me!I'm a sad little man

Actually, don't buy the program.
Cut your food budget by 25% and alcohol budget by 100% and (providing you are presently eating normally, not obese, and drinking like a typical colleg age kid) you will have a 6 pack in six months.
You can pay me the money that you save instead of buying the 6-pack programI'm going to take the Sc0liosis curve out of my back and eliminate my nerve pain
