I want to reduce weight around my stomach & waist. Is Gymming better or Aerobics?

Running, swimming, treadmill etc. etc. Cardiovascular work that raises the metabolism level and keeps it elevated for a while is the only way to naturally burn fat. If you stop exercising, you will most likely lose muscle tone and definition.

Do you mean tummy exercises?  or exercisers?  (there is a difference).  Exercises really do work; any sort of sit up, or try a number of them to work different parts of the abs.  You also need to do aerobic exercise, like fast walking, or running.  That will help eliminate the overall fat percentage of your entire body, including your abs.  Eating right is necessary too.

First and foremost, stay away from any ab machine you see on TV as they are simply a waste of money and barely effective.\n\nThe abdominal muscles work just like any other muscle and have to be challenged as such. If you want muscular abdominals, you have to challenge them with resistance and good form just like you would your chest, your back or any other muscle for that matter. Targeting the correct energy system is imperative. This means you should never enter into the aerobic phase of this exercise, ideally keeping it under 2 minutes at most. \n\nThink of rolling a carpet and contracting fully on the top of the movement and squeeze. If you do them correctly, you shouldn't be able to do more than 30 crunches. Any more than that, and you're probably doing them half-azz, incorrectly or with a partial range of motion.\n\nFor the upper abs, focus on crunches which effectively work the abdominals better than sit-ups or any machine on the market.\n\nFor the lower abs, keep in mind there is very little muscle tissue there so decreasing levels of body fat is the most effective way to bring out the best in this area. Hanging leg raises, v-situps and reverse curls are among some of the best exercise for this region. Always make sure your pelvis curls up to maximize lower abdominal contraction during these exercises.\n\nAs far as fat loss and getting ripped goes, cardio, cardio, cardio. Abdominal exercises alone will never burn fat from your abdominal area.  You must do cardiovascular exercise to accomplish this.  Cardio is best in the morning, on an empty stomach at about 70-80% of your maximum heart rate for about 30-45 minutes. This combined with a common sense diet will quickly shed body fat so you can actually see those abs you've developed. \n\nI would encourage you to seek the advice and guidance of a personal trainer in your area for further education on these principles. Please ensure you start off at a very basic level for crunches and cardio if you are a beginner.\n\nHere's a good list of ab exercises:\nhttp://preventdisease.com/fitness/Strength_Exercises_abdominals.html

abs exercises is great for that. crunches, sit ups, are the most popular exercises to get smaller waist,,,but hey for those girls out there, belly dancing is nice too, great workout for the abs as well as great as stress buster too. everybody can enjoy the dance and at the same time, it really burns tummy fats.

Doing aerobics helps a lot.Walking,jogging,cycling,ab crunches.etc.etc...go on a complete vegetarian diet,because all meat&fish sort of stuff don't give u a good energy.They simply add up to ur fat.They ,on all levels of energy give u negetivity.\nSee that ur diet is very nutritious.avoid junk foods,aerated drinks,high level sugar containing foods.fresh veggies & fruits are the best!!\ntry enjoying ur aerobic sessions, rather than machine like ones.yoga & dancing(need not be formal)are the best in this aspect.\n Don't strain urself too much in weight reduction as this will show even more adverse effect on ur health than overweight.

Cardio.. and targeting the stomach through different forms of muscle workouts in that area. \n\n'Piloties' I hear is good for target areas. Many will say you can not target certain areas, but I think there are ways.. Cardio will be good. you may need to loose some overall body fat. \n\nWalking and Jogging rocks.. If you can't stand jogging, start walking and go from there. Then go to faster walking then go through spurts where you jog, then walk then go back and forth.

Cardio will help the most, run more worry about sit ups later they burn less fat than sit ups. Alos, you cant burn fat from one area at a time, i.e sit ups does not burn more tummy fat tham any other excercise.

You can do them both.  Once the fat is gone, you will see the ab work. Remember, the problem is not starting a workout but continuing one.  Best of luck.

Sit ups are usually for toning up abdominal muscles. If you want to lose fat then you have to do aerobics like running, cycling and swimming. You cannot lose fat only from your stomach. When the fat burns, the process includes the entire body. But don't worry about it because with moderate exercise and dieting you only lose fat, your muslce mass stays intact.

any aerobic exercise like running will help you lose the weight, then do sit ups and crunches to help you tone your belly. also, try to cut back on the food that is high in fat and carbs, and try to drink water more instead of other drinks high in sugar.

Swimming is the best exercise. Do stomach crunchs (where you go up half way) to flatten your tummy.

Clearly any aerobic exercise is going to burn fat. Crunches are not a very good stomach exercise.  The abominal and oblique machines are far superior.

Whatever exercise you do will burn calories and, with proper diet, result in weight loss.  However, the weight is lost all over, not just in the area being exercised.  Doing crunches will help you build abdominal muscles, which will look good once the weight is off, but it will not cause you to lose weight only in your abdomen.  Cardio exercises are best for weight loss: Using a rowing machine or "skiing"-type arm movements (like you get with an elliptical trainer) are good ways to burn calories without using your legs.  Swimming with a styrofoam buoy between your legs is also great exercise.

Crunches will make your belly look better and improve your posture. However, they won't get rid of the fat over or under the muscles. Aerobic exercise (walking, running, etc) will burn up those fat cells. Even liposuction can't get rid of all belly fat, only the fat near the surface of the lower belly. So start reducing caloric intake,huffing and puffing, and then start the crunches!

There is no such thing as spot-reduction when it comes to losing weight.  It is a myth, and don't believe anyone telling you otherwise.  If you are going to lose weight on your legs, you will lose it everywhere else also.  That said, running is probably the best exercise because along with losing weight you will be building the muscles in your legs and core (lower abs and back) which will give you a healthier, and slimmer, appearance.

Cardiovascular exercise. Running, biking, swimming.. whatever you're most comfortable doing that gets your heartrate up. Start by doing 30min a day, and just increase your intervals.\n\nIt's a myth that abdominal exercises help to lose weight. They'll make your core strength and ab muscles stronger, but they'll never be visible if you dont lose the fat tissue covering them.
