I was wondering what exercises are good for toning my stomach. I have a stomach that pops out a little, not too much and when I say I wanna tone it, I'm saying that I want to make it flat enough that I can start doing ab exercises and build abs. At the moment, I do sit ups with my legs up and my hands on the back of my head (this is good cuz I do sets of 100 and by the 30 mark, the burning feeling begins) and I do some pilates thing, in which I lay on my back and make bicycling motions with my legs (kinda hard to describe). Any suggestions for better stomach-toning exercises? I wanna go into college with at least a flat stomach (going to college this fall)

I actually get good ab results by doing pushups o.o... you can try that. And keep up with the sit-ups until you can do sets of 100, but start feeling the burning in your legs around 60.

Do some cardio. That way, you will burn some fat, which helps on getting your muscles toned. [quote] SuckMyKiss : do planches [/quote] I've been training these for like a year already, and can barely stand 5 seconds on the initial position. ): TEACH ME.

Cardio to decrease the sheet of fat that's covering your abs. Everyone has abs, its just in order to see definition, you need to lower your body fat and the most dreadful exercise(cardio) happens to be the most effective for toning abs. I'd say 20-30minutes of cardio per day, lower calorie intake by around 600 calories and in combination of you're ab exercises you should see results. The workouts for cardio and abs, are working out all endurance muscles so you can pretty much work out every day and don't have to worry about lowering the process of getting ripped as builders tend to skip a day and work on other muscle groups to give time for their muscles to repair. I don't know why everyone is in such a craze to get abs all of a sudden, its not a quick process as I've heard. Personally, I've had abs all my life due to genetics but still work them out since not everyday am I involving cardio and am eating a shortened calorie intake diet. The AB craze is because of Jersey Shore isn't it. =] The situation goes to my gym, lmao.
