I'm the same size, and trust me if you work out moderately and stay 'cut', that should be good enough. Truthfully, most women would prefer that then a big, bulky bodybuilder. Be patient and just stay active, they'll come along.

Hello there,\n\nIt's hard to say with such limited information exactly what you should do but some basics for you...\n\nStick to a good workout routine to continue building muscle mass, (If what you are doing has been working for you, stick with it)  and add in some cardiovascular exercise (treadmill, stepper, stationary bike, etc.) to that routine which will help you burn off unwanted bodyfat while still building muscle.  Keep in mind that the best way to burn bodyfat is to combine good nutrition with cardiovascular exercise.  You can do abdominal exercises with your regular lifting routine to help develop your abdominals as well, however, all the abdominal exercises in the world will not help define your abs unless you diet properly. You can have a great six pack underneath that belly fat, but you won't be able to see it.  Abdominal definition comes from good dieting, not from doing thousands of crunches.\n\nBasically, stick to your workout routine, and keep it fresh by switching up exercises every so often. That will also help you to keep making gains.  Use only as heavy of a weight as you can handle with GOOD QUALITY REPETITIONS and take a look at your diet to see if there is anything bad that you can cut out of it to help get your abdominals more defined.  Go with several small meals a day rather than one or two big ones and keep to good quality protein sources (eggs, fish, lean beef, etc.) and good quality carbohydrates (vegetables, oatmeal, etc.) and that should get you on your way.   I know this is pretty general, but I hope it helped.\n\n-nikemand

There is no one right answer.  But first things first, cut out all the crap from your diet.  Lower your fried food, carb, soda, salt, and butter intake.  Next is cardio.  I recommend 20-60 minutes of cardio at least 4 times a week.  Now to the actual ab question.  As for the number of reps and sets.  Find a few exercises you like and do a minimum of 3 sets of 30-40.  See how you feel.  If that is too much, drop the reps if too easy, add some reps.  Still not challenged, shoot me an email I will send you a destructive ab workout.  Then find a few exercises that you don't like and do those as well.  I personally like to do a set of abs or obliques in between each set of my main workout.  Keeps the heart rate high, keeps you focused on your mission which equals more burning of fat.  Most importantly take your time and use proper form on every single rep.  Slow is good but if you concentrate on yoru form you will do more good for the flat sexy look.  Too slow and you will find yourself growing a whole midsection of muscle like bodybuilders, not so much the sexy definition you are looking for.  I sometimes do so many reps and sets that I separate upper abs, lower abs, and obliques on separate days.  Enjoy!

Body building.....a sport. Nope. Weight lifting, YES!

Crunches are great.  So are sit-ups, but cardio will trim the fat.  Try jogging, jumping-jacks, bicycling, dance classes, aerobic classes.  Your diet also depends on it.  \n\nCrunches and sit-ups are good to build the muscle, but if you have fat behind that muscle, it just doesn't make sense.

Well I have watched a lot of shows about body builders and they dehydrate their bodies before compititions to make them look more ripped but i dont recommend this lol. try  to eat lots of lean meats and poultry and fish. drink lots of water. If you dont already do cross-situps on exercise balls. Do reverse situps also.

To help loose body fat switch to a higher protien lower carb diet.  I still eat breads and pastas, just not as much or as often as I used to.  By just doing that and working out I lost the inches in no time and have been able to keep them off!

crunches crunches and more crunches.  My husband is a body builder and he does this all the time now that he is too busy to go to the gym.

good for you for not wanting to change what you eat - you're already on the right track: exercise!\n\nI recommend some all-body exercises: swimming and jump-rope.\n\nHowever I also recommend measuring your waistline or similar if you are trying to "loose weight" because you are most likely shedding fat but putting on muscle. Muscle weighs more than fat, so you are probably getting slimmer without loosing actual weight, which is perfectly normal and healthy.

Well personally I think it desirable to develop one's pecs and a lot of people I know think the same, however if you're of a big build then you naturally wouldn't want 'boobs'. Don't do the bench press or the bench flye then...except you might be able to prevent that particular development by doing high repetitions and using a (relatively) low weight on such exercises, but not too low a weight. Notice the chests of gymnasts and bruce lee for example though this could be a natural build issue as well, but they seem pretty flat.\nAlso cut down on fat in your diet, as excess fat will likely lead to a saggy chest instead of a tight muscled one.

Anyone that tells you you can spot reduce fat is full of crap.  Your body burns fat equally throughout the entire body.   You can spot build muscle near the areas but that's not the most effective method.  Build muscle and burn fat equally across your entire body. When you build muscle, you increase your metabolism automatically because muscle requires more calories to maintain itself than fat does.  Don't believe the lies about looking bulky.  Even when you try to get bulky it takes a tremendous amount of work.  The only effective method is lifelong sensible diet and exercise.

Just so you know there is no possible way to loose wieght in "spots". For males the usuall last spot to loose wieght is the stomach area and for females its the thighs. A hormone called cortisol can also cause fat build up around the waist. My advice eat healthier, play harder and keep that stress down. Good luck

If you want to waste your money then send it to me. Don’t fall into the trap that most of  American is in, which is, NO FAT, NO CARBS, DIET PILL, everyone who goes down that road never really gets into shape, it is just an evil trick. You see most of the weight they actually loose is in the form of muscle which is much heavier than fat.\n\nJust get on a good diet with all the good fats and carbs and exercise. You will loose weight and keep it off this way.\n\nAdditional comment:\nI see you re-posted this question and bashed us. I for one am nowhere near fat, sorry that my and the others opinions offended your sorry  butt

That will NOT cause you to loose wieght in an of itself. Yes you do need the good fats and carbohydrates to allow you body utilize energy when in a KREB cycle (After 16 minutes of cardio) but it is the actual cardio training that causes your body to burn off fat deposites.\n\nSo whatever someone told you about flax maybe untrue or maybe you simply misunderstood what they told you.
