you can do all the sit ups you want (as others have suggested here) but you won't get rid of any fat if you are not doing cardio combined with strength training (or at least cardio)\n\nthe cardio burns the fat, and the strength training turns your body into a calorie burning oven\n\ni started a working out in Jan 2005 (at 5'7 159) and am now down to 134 and i am starting to seen the muscles in my stomach (just barely)

Nothing works better than abdominal exercises. They all work, but they require determination. However, if u want a flat stomach, it's worth the efforts. Most important" if you're also overweight: stay off greasy foods!

for the stomach, I recommend sit-ups. Sit-ups are very good for you to use when you want to lose some weight around the stomach area.

on diet...\n\nThe only way you can keep your stomach flat and hard is if there is no layer to fat covering it and the best way to lose fat is simple - exercise. If possible, do some cardio first thing in the morning before eating any full meals. This burns the maximum amount of fat. Since your body has not had any food for the last 7-10 hours, it burns the fat in your body for energy. If not, then cardio and a little weight lifting anytime of the day will do. It is important to build some muscle since it will aid in your fat loss. The more muscle mass you have, the faster your metabolism.\n\nAlso, try eating small meals more frequently as opposed to the big 3 (breakfast, lunch, dinner). try to eat a small meal every 3 hours. The reason for this is that your body burns more calories since it is constantly digesting something in your stomach and will raise your metabolism. It is also useful to eat small meals because your stomach will not be stuffed and will always have a smaller look. If you are afraid of doing this because you might end up eating more, try this: when you are about to eat lunch, separate everything on your plate into 2. eat half and leave the other half to be eaten 3 hours later. do the same with dinner.\n\nlastly, losing weight is just simple math. If your calories taken in is more than when you use up (exercise, daily activities, metabolism, etc) then you gain weight. If it is less, then you lose weight. If you are really determined to lose weight then i suggest you start counting how much calorries you consume a day and cut it by 300-500 each week until you notice some results.\n\nif you are really serious, avoid eating foods high in sugar without any real nutritional value (chocolate, cakes, doughnuts, ice cream, all desserts) and foods way up there in the calorie scale (pizza, fried anything, etc)\n\n-----------------------------------------\n\nby doing all of the above, you will be able to achieve a lean body with a good body fat percentage. This will ensure that your stomach is flat and hard. However, if you want abs (im assuming that you do) you will have to train them hard. There are quite a number of exercises for the abs on this page http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/exercises.htm like the different variations of crunches and oblique exercises to get you started.

Cardio exercises burn the most fat and will probably put the least amount of stress on you stomach. Try what feels the most comfortable to you. You could try walking, jogging, or biking.

The only known way to loose fat from targeted areas is though liposuction; though I've heard mention of limited studies regarding the use of aminophyline cream on targeted areas of fat, you'd need to research that yourself.  The claims made by too many ppl trying to sell their product has convinced the general public that is is possible to do focused excersizes say for you abs area to loose fat there; not possible.  Your body stores fat in certain areas for each gender; women legs, bottom & belly; men belly.  When the body starts to save the excess calories in a persons diet; the body places it in these areas first.  So if you are loosing fat in a excersize and diet plan these are the last places to go.  And depending on your age, genetics, activity level, dietary habits and gender it may be very hard to loose those spots of fat, but not impossible.  What you need to ask yourself is how important is it that I loose these fatty areas, as you'd need to be very strict with your diet and excersize.

You need to tackle it from two different directions:\n\n1.)  Decrease the number of calories you consume in a controlled way - if you crash diet the weight you will loose will be lean muscle. Not only will you put the weight back on quickly but you will struggle to loose it in the future it muscle that 'burns it off'.  \n\nTry supplementing processed foods with more fruit and veg but make sure that you are getting all the correct food groups.\n\nTry the links on this page:\n\nhttp://www.nutrition.org.uk/home.asp?siteId=43&sectionId=325&subSectionId=320&parentSection=299&which=1\n\n2.) Take more excercise.  Doesn't really matter what you do as long as you get mildly out of breath.  Do this as often as you can (at least 20mins a day).\n\nIt a myth that you can reduce fat in certain areas of you body by targeting them alone so don't do loads of stomach crunches at the expense of other exercise - you will just hurt your back.

Hi there, you cant simply lose the fat at a particular since it is not that area which is producing fat. for example, ppl with fat belly do thousands of sit ups and not seeing nicer belly. ( nothing against fat people :) )\n\nTo lose weight, the best thing is to do cardiovascular exercises like biking, jogging, walking at a fast pace...You are supposed to do them on an empty stomach in the morning or in the evening. The reason why we do it on an empty stomach is bcos u dont hav any food in ur body that it needs fuel to get energy for u to do that exercise.. Then, your body resorts to burning the body fat as a fuel. Do cardio for 40-45 mins 6-7 times a week. But, note this that cardio takes 30% and diet takes 70%. So eat 4-5 small meals a day which contains low carbs, high quality protein ( lean read meat such as chicken breast, nuts ( they hav good fats which make u lose bodyfat and good for general health ), beans, turky, tuna ) and lot of vegetables ( dont eat junk food like french fries or McDonal food or stuff ). By eating smaller meals more frequently the metabolism become fast and it help ur body put in an anabolic state which is good for losing fat. And avoid eating sugary food , sweets and the likes. Try to hav less stress ( just try to think that argument or whatever problem is not gonna kill u that you dont really hav to care much, for example). And try to get restful sleep around 7 hrs a day. SO, that is everything u hav to do. You will see the difference in 2-3 mths if u follow them strictly. \n\ntruth be told that alcohol , beer is very fattening and it decreases ur testosterone level resulting in estrogen increase which encourage ur body to gather more and more fat. And Fruits !! when losing fat, avoid fruits bcos they contains sugar and stuff which are fattening. Good luck :)

Eat less portions, and make sure you get plenty of exercise. When you exercise- your body starts to burn fat.

Whatever you do, don't loose weight by not eating (completly) or by squeezing the weight in your belly out. Tips: Exercize daily (not too strenuous exercise) and eat healthy foods (vegetables and such). Doing a couple sit-ups (10-40 or 50 if you can) every day might help.

Cardio.  the only way to get rid of a belly is cardio.  You can do all the ab exercises in the world and you'll have a nice six pack covered by fat.  If youre serious, do cardio 30 min a day, six days a week.  If youre not so motivated, make sure it's at least 3 times per week.

You can't focus on just one body area to loose fat from, so you're going to have to loose wieght and do crunches to tone up your abdomen. Don't do sit-ups--those are too stressful to your back. Below is a link that might interest you.

Exercise more and cut down on excess food- try eating a balanced diet of protein, fat and carbs. Pilates and sit ups are excellent tummy reducers and low impact cardio is good too. Jogging at a low impact, swimming, etc... When your heart rate is low is when you are burning fat..

My favorite ab exercises are crunches and Roman chair.  Unlike most other muscles, abs can be worked every day.  Do make sure that you pull your abs tightly toward your spine when working them because the muscles will form in the position they are worked.  Fail to do this and they can form bulging out which is not attractive.\n\nThere is no site specific way of losing fat... the old myth about working your abs to burn belly fat isn't true. To get rid of love handles, you need to lose overall fat. That happens with exercise and watching your diet. More on that below. \n\nThe most effective way to lose fat is aerobic exercise in the "moderate" fat-burning range, ideally first thing in the morning before you eat. When you wake your body is ready to burn fat and your levels of growth hormone are highest at that time. Later in the day it can take up to 30 minutes just to put your body into a fat-burning mode. \n\nYou are welcome to look at my 360 Blog of September 10 for more detailed suggestions.\n\nAloha
