I think I have to clarify something for you. You cannot spot reduce weight, meaning that you can’t only lose weight from one area of your body by doing a certain exercise. So for example running won’t only help your legs and crunches won’t only make you lose weight from your belly. When you do cardio exercise, which is any exercise that gets your heart rate up and makes you sweat, your body starts burning off calories taking them from the stored carbs and fat in your body. So when you are doing cardio exercising, no matter what kind of exercise you are doing you are losing weight from the most prevalent source on your body. So if you have a big butt/thighs you’re probably taking most of your weight off from that area. The only way to flatten your stomach is to do cardio exercise and get a healthy low calorie diet. Try to stay at 1800 calories or below everyday, but don’t go too low stay above 1600 calories in a day. So to recap: 1. You can only flatten your tummy by doing cardio and you’ll end up losing weight from your whole body. 2. There are NO exercises you can do to ONLY flatten your stomach. 3. Stay between 1600 and 1800 calories in a day 4. Do about 45-60 min of cardio 4 days per week(running, stationary bike, stair master, even swimming can be cardio) 5. Out of the 1600-1800 calories in a day that you are getting at least 250-300 should be from fruits and veggies. Any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to email me. This is what I specialize in.

Best Ab Workout
When people talk about ab workouts what they usually are talking about are exercises that they think will make the superficial muscles of the stomach visible. Abs exercises are not the best bet for achieving this goal.
However, if you already have low body fat and your muscles are visible these exercises can help build strength and definition throughout your entire core.
Once again, if you want to see your abs do large muscle group compound exercises like squats, push ups and pull ups. Combine this with clean eating and you may get to see your six pack.

I’m 15 but i started working on my abs,biceps and pecs at 14.But i only do 1)push ups and some flexing on the chest area(for pecs training),2)arm strengthening by applying weight on one arm with the other arm,no dumbells(for biceps training)and 3)different abs exercises.Will such a routine done at 14-15 years old affect my height growth even though i didn’t deal with weights and dumbells?
not at all, most doctors recomend this for even 5 year olds, its perfectly normal, and your not even dealing with weights and dumbells. Im also 15 but im 5′8 and they make us lift wieghts in gym or else we fail the class

hey, could anyone give me some information on what exercises i could do do acheive 6 pack abs. I dont have acess to a gym, and i hate doing sit ups because of the pain it puts on your back. I am 16, weigh 175 and am 6,2 . Yes i know a healthy diet, and cardio are needed. Any information on what exercises, standing up, or ones i can do without too much pain on back, how often to do them, and how many reps/ sets etc, would be very much appreciated. Also, if you have tried it before, or have 6 pack abs somehow, please share =D thank you ahead of time for your responses
Crunches are a good way to take pressure off your back, standing up you can do woodchoppers with bands or a dumbell. You can also do isometric planks that will help build your core. Treat abs like any other muscle exercise them every other day.

Go to http://BuildMuscleBurnFat.info/ my FREE workout plan Build Muscle and Burn Fat FAST AS HELL!
You can have the greatest, most muscular set of abs in the world, but if they are blanketed by a layer of body fat, who cares. In order to rid yourself of the extra body fat around your midsection, you need to incorporate effective cardio sessions into your fitness plan. You cannot spot-reduce the midsection by doing extra ab exercises like crunches or sit-ups. You first must burn off the body fat through proper cardio to properly define the area.
Abdominal training by itself will not do much. Cardio needs to be intense enough to do the trick. Three to four sessions a week of intense jogging, running, the Stairmaster, the elliptical, jumping rope, or biking should be enough to get the process in gear. Swimming, hiking, and taking aerobics classes are beneficial as well. Nothing beats jogging or running. It is the most intense, efficient, and effective method of burning calories. If running outside hurts your joints, try running inside on a treadmill or outside on a dirt path. It definitely is easier on the body.
Again, you NEED three to four intense cardio sessions a week to help create a calorie deficit and help rid the body of the fat that covers your abs.
Proper Nutrition:
Do not sabotage your results in the gym by giving yourself a passport to pig out. Ridding the body of fat once and for all is accomplished by proper nutrition more so than incorporating cardio. At the end of the day, if you have consumed more calories than you have expended, you add body fat. So you need to burn more calories than you consume.
Nutrition is important because you can reduce the amount of calories you take in, therefore greatly having an effect on the amount which you have to expend through cardio. Eat five to six small, well-balanced meals spaced apart about every three to four hours. Try to keep something healthy on hand.
If not, when you become real hungry, you will opt for something that isn’t as good for you. When you become overly hungry, all rational thinking goes out the window.
But it is important to get something in you. Not eating on time or at all is almost as bad as eating too much. Keep protein intake high (approximately 50% of daily calories), carbs moderate (40%), and fats minimal (10%).
Muscle fiber is made of tightly-wound protein molecules that is damaged during a workout, so you need more protein than the sedentary person to help that muscle tissue repair. Carbohydrates have an important role in the body, but do not base your meals on them. Try to avoid simple sugars like cane sugar, honey, fruit juices, syrups, and even a lot of fruit.
Drink at least a gallon of clean water each day as well. It will help in nutrient absorption and digestion and will help flush toxins from the body.
Bottom line, make sure you are supplying your body with well-balanced, healthy food every three to four hours.
Weight training The Abdominals:
Here is where most people go wrong in their attempt to develop their abs. I often ask those I train, “Would you train your biceps with sets of 50 reps with no weight?” Of course, they say “no.” How about your chest, 50 reps with no weight? Another no. I then ask, “Then why would you do that with your abs?”
Here’s an important key. If you want proper ab development, you need to add resistance (weight) to your ab exercises. Abs are muscles just like biceps, triceps, pecs, glutes, whatever. You need resistance to properly strengthen and build them. The same goes for abdominals

http://fitwithmitch.com/weight-training-programs/abs-review/ The Journey to your Ripped Abs start here!
If you’re like most people, you think that the way to getting a phenomenal six-pack is through crunches, situps, and if you’re “smart” you’ll do flutter kicks or alternating kicks. Well this approach is WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!
I’ve been in sports nearly all my life and a strong core was necessary, especially in Tae Kwon Do when I was being kicked there several times a week. I could do hundreds of crunches and situps, but never really saw the six-pack I wanted. And I have around 6% body fat! I had achieved a tone midsection, but not very visible abs.
I decided to break away from convention and add weight to my exercises and train my abs like any other muscle that I want to grow larger. Within weeks, I began to see size growth and a six-pack emerged that I couldn’t believe! Yet, I still looked around the gym and people were crunching away on the floors.
I’m here to share with you 5 of my exercises that have built my totally ripped abs that many gym goers envy to this day.
1. Dual Pully Crunch
2. Rope Pulldown
3. Oblique Pulldown
4. Decline Situp
5. Weighted Leg Raise
These 5 exercises are the foundation upon with I build my six-pack ab program. So if you really want totally ripped, pop-out abs, get off the mat and hit some weights!
Read a more in depth explantion as to why this works and learn more about my full ab program at http://www.fitwithmitch.com where I share the other two ingredients to a ripped six-pack..not just these exercises.
Until next time, Happy Lifting!

All of the answers on here say that the way to go is cardio. I cant afford another pyshical activity so do you have a good in-home exercise for each of the three areas?
Thanks a lot!

I saw the bender ball on tv, but it must be a scam. I’ve read on blogs that it’s bad for your back. I used to do sit-ups, but that’s bad for you too. It’s almost as if everything is bad for your these days. So is there any safe, effective way to tighten your abs, thighs and butt?
Crunches are good. Don’t sit up all of the way.

What exercises do I need to do to lose my belly fat?
Ok I am a very fit person 5′8 and weight 138lbs. My stomach is completely flat but still I can’t see the six pack. Its covered by a little layer of fat that I need to lose. I do tons of abs exercises, but I still can’t see the six pack, I need to lose that little fat that is covering it. So what are good exercises for this?
You need to get bigger abdominals, so try adding some more weight to the exercises. Also check your diet and cardio to see what you need to do to get that little fat off.

No,you will reach your near maximum height in you teens and then slow down until you finally stop growing. The onlt stunting that may occur is that you won’t build up as much body fat,just try to keep the muscle to body fat ratio in check. Nothing wrong with being fit and trim,but I’d try not to look like those body builders.

For the most part I have a flat stomach but it would be nice to be a little more ‘abby’. Any suggestions?
There is no exercise that will give you abs. There is no such thing as spot training..
Its all about bodyfat% So in three weeks if you can drop your body fat% low enough your abs can and will show.
There is no amount of ab workouts or excersises you can do that will allow your abdominals to show. Just work on your diet and do some abs so you dont feel guilty. Then you can make your abs look even better!
Hope that helps!!

i need good exercises for my pecs and abs that i can do at home
One of the best exercises for pecs is push-ups. If you can do them easily from the toes, then you can make them even harder by elevating your feet on a bench or stability ball. If that’s too easy, you can do them on the floor and get someone to add resistance by pushing on your back. You can also add instablilty by placing one or both hands on an unstable surface such as an inflated disc.
These types of push-ups also do work your abs. Especially these…stagger your hand positions. One hand at shoulder level, and the other above your head (still on the floor). Do a few, then switch hand positions and do the same number again.
If push-ups from the toes are too difficult, you can do them from the knees.
Some good ab work to do at home are V-sits with torso twists. To add resistance, do them while holding a weight or weighted ball.
You can do a great push-up core combo as follows…Do a full push-up. Rotate your body into a side bridge position* and hold for a few seconds. Rotate back into push-up position and do another full push-up. Rotate your body into a side bridge position on the other side and hold. Repeat doing push-up, side bridge, push-up side bridge until you can’t do any more.
*A right side bridge is when your right hand is on the floor, your right arm is straight, your hips are stacked, your legs are straight, your right foot is on the floor and your left foot rests on top of your right foot. Your left arm is straight up in the air. Your body looks like the letter "t".
Good luck!

I can’t do press ups on the floor. I can do a variation of them were you push against the wall but I don’t think they are doing much. I do 3 reps of 15 twice a day
Kneeling Butt Lift – On all fours, balancing on your hands and knees, place your hands under your shoulders. Your knees should be under your hips. Flex your foot and bend your knee at a 90-degree angle. In this position, lift your leg high into the air until your thigh is parallel to the floor.
Butt Lift (Bridge) – Lie down, on your back, on a floor mat. Place your hands on either side of the body. Bend your knees and then lift your hips from the floor. Make sure to keep your back straight and your glutes tight. Hold the "squeeze" position for a few seconds and release. Do as many reps as possible.
