The quickest way isn't always the best way or the right way for you.  Here are 3 different approaches that work:\n\n1) The quickest by far is surgery, of course.  Liposuction is fast and works wonders- but actual stomach reductions (stapling, bypass etc) have not only been proven effective for weightloss but also in reducing the chances you'll develop adult onset diabetes.\n\n2) Next fastest is to eat a diet of 80% natural fats and 20% protein, in 5 small portions, with a target of 1000 calories a day.  This is like eating a 2 oz bag of macadamia nuts, or 2 oz of egg salad or tuna salad as a complete meal, every meal.  It works- and for any significant amount of weight it's better than starvation.  More importantly the high fat content of the diet ensures that your body continues to produce the hormones you need to retain muscle tissue- so you lose fat pounds and not muscle pounds.\n\n3) Probably the best long term solution to lose weight and improve your health is to follow a light excercise routine several times per week, and to eat a diet that is high in fiber and has a low glycemic index (that is- eat foods that are low in processed sugar and grains, preferring when you eat carbohydrates to try whole grains and natural sugars).

You can't spot-reduce fat. When fat is burnt, it's from everywhere in the body. So the best idea is to concentrate on exercises that burn calories. This can be cardiovascular exercises - jogging, cycling, swimming and the like - or resistance exercises, like lifting heavy weights. \n\nLifting heavy weights for low reps can be more effective for weight loss than cardio work. This is because the heavy weight-lifting encourages your muscles to grow, or at least stay at the same size, forcing your body to use fat for energy. Simply dieting without exercise will result in you losing muscle as well as fat. Try deadlifts, squats, bench press, bent-over barbell rows, chins (pull-ups) and dips.\n\nOf course, this all relies on you eating fewer calories than you burn up each day. There's no need to starve yourself, just aim to lose around 1 pound per week.\n\nCrunches and sit-ups are exercises for developing abdominal strength and muscle size. Crunches are better for your back, because they keep the focus on your rectus abdominus ("abs") muscle (the big six-pack muscle from your groin to your sternum), whereas sit-ups have a tendency to bring your hips into action, particularly your iliopsoas muscle, which stretches from your groin, around the side of your waist, and connects to your back. If you strain your iliopsoas, you can get really bad back pain.\n\nSome people say "Crunches are useless, because they just make your belly larger." Well, that's true, but only for really, really advanced bodybuilders. Other people say "Crunches are useless, because you can't spot-reduce fat." Again, true. And yet another group says "Crunches are useless, because if you do other big lifts you'll use your abs anyway." Also true.\n\nSo are crunches useless? No, they do have their uses. Strengthening your abdominals has one very good visible side effect - strong abs hold your guts in tight, which helps reduce that beer-belly appearance. So while the fat might still be there, your abdomen isn't as saggy.

How to get a flat stomach - Ok firstly the idea of localised fat loss is a myth - during exercise fat is burned as fuel from all areas of the body and while working your abdominal muscles will help them to develop, but if there is a layer of fat obscuring these new muscles neither you or anyone else will be able to see them. Therefore to achieve your goa,l any abdominal exercise needs to be combined with a well balanced and nutritious diet to see the fruits of your labour. In addition cardiovascular exercise will speed up this process and help to burn extra fat.\n\nBy far the best exercise to build abdominal muscle and toning the abdominal wall is the crunch - this is actually the main stomach exercise performed by athletes and models.\n\nThe Crunch\n• Lie on you back.\n• Place your feet on the floor as close to your bottom as possible and place your knees together.\n• Rest your hands across you chest and relax the neck.\n• Slowly raise your shoulders off the floor by contracting only the abdominal muscles.\n• Don't come up too high - your lower back should always remain on the floor.\n• Hold that position for a count of 1 and breath out forcefully.\n• Slowly relax the stomach muscles and allow your shoulders to return to the floor.\n• Repeat 10 - 12 times, rest for 60 seconds then repeat.\n\nThe amount of crunches you can do, as with all exercises, varies from person to person... its safest to start off with a relatively low number as to avoid strain and build up to more over time.\n\nFurther Exercises \nThe Plank\n• Lie flat on your stomach.\n• Place your hands at either side of your chest - as if ready to perform a press up - although your should tuck your elbows into your sides.\n• Keeping your back perfectly flat, push yourself up onto your knees - so that your upper body is off the floor, with your hands and knees acting as support.\n• Keeping your back flat, pull in your tummy button as high as possible - as if to suck it in close to the spine.\n• Aim to maintain a normal breathing pattern and hold this position for 10 - 60 seconds.\n• Rest, lie flat then repeat twice.\n\nToe Touch\n• Lie on you back.\n• Raise your arms and legs so they are perpendicular with your body.\n• Slowly curl your torso up and forward, raising your hands as close to your toes as possible\n• Contract your abs and then reverse direction, returning to the starting position.\n• Repeat 10 - 12 times, rest for 60 seconds then repeat.\n\nReverse Curl\n• Lie on you back.\n• Place your hands at sides and bend your knees.\nraise your butt as high as possible while keeping your upper back pressed to the floor.\n• Contract your abdominals and then reverse direction, returning to the starting position. \n• Repeat 10 - 12 times, rest for 60 seconds then repeat.\n\nTwisting Crunch \n• Lie on you back.\n• Bend your knees so your thighs are perpendicular to the ground and fold arms across your chest.\n• Slowly raise your shoulders up and forward toward your chest, twisting your body to the right.\n• Feel a contraction in your abdominal muscles and then slowly reverse direction, returning to the start position.\n• Repeat movement but this time twist to the left.\n• Repeat 10 - 12 times, rest for 60 seconds then repeat.\n\n \n   Home \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n The Truth About Weight Loss \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n The Truth About Exercise \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n Great Workouts \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n Exercising With Kids \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n Fitness Myths \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n The Low Carb Diet Dilemma \n\n--------

Congrats!I lost 70 lbs. and I found that there is no possible way to spot reduce.Even from doing crucnhes and situps I still have a layer of fat over my belly.It's muscle under there you just have to do cardio to make it show.The first place you gained the weight in(your belly)is the last place you will loose it from.Keep your diet healthy with healthy carbs and continue exercising.

The main thing you need to do is burn fat to get that six pack. Not much ab excercise is needed to get the six pack you want. Sit ups only build muscle they don't burn fat. So if you want to burn fat just jog and do as much cardio as you can. It makes the heart beat faster which will burn fat faster and get you those abs you want.

Big guts are fat. You can do all the situps and pushups you want to ,but you have to lose the fat. The only way to burn fat is by doing cardio/aerobic workouts. You have to raise your heartrate. Then do situps and leg lifts, lay flat and lift both legs, feet together, straight up and hold for 10 seconds, this is what exercise they use in the Navy for ab strengthening. If you do this twice a day with the cardio your gut will be gone in no time. Do sets of 50 to start and increase as you get stronger. Oh by the way you'd better by some Ibuprofen you will be sore.....Good Luck!!!

Eliminate all sugars from your diet and do situps or other stomach exercises. You'll be surprised how fast you eliminate fat!

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.

You can't spot reduce.  To lose weight in your tummy, you need to eat less and exercise more.  Start with walking if you are currently inactive.  Work up to at least 30 minutes 3 - 5 times per week.  You can do ab crunches to tone your stomache muscles, but if you have fat over the muscles, you won't really be able to see them until you lose weight.

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.

There's no exercises which would allow you to lose fat in any specific area (like your abdominal area). When you burn fat, the fat loss is spread throughout your body. Doing tons of crunches would only help to strengthen your abdominal muscles, but what you want to do is reduce the layer of fat that covers your abs (crunches/situps are a VERY ineffective way of reducing fat).\n\nTo get a flatter stomach, the most important things are to watch what you eat (total # of calories as well as the amount of fat) and doing cardio, such as running or swimming. Cut out junk food such as soda, chips, fast food, etc.. and set a regular schedule for yourself to go for a run maybe 2-3 times a week (more if you'd like) and you'll be on your way to a thinner waistline.

You have to do cardio to burn belly fat.  Just lifting weights and doing sit ups wont cut it.  Cardio, cardio, cardio!  Everytime you do cardio be sure to throw some stomach crunches in there too.  you should see results in about a month.

First, you should stick with crunches..they are less stressful on your back and focus more on the correct muscles. Then, if you cut out all fat from your diet and limit your caloric intake, you will see results in 3 - 4 weeks. That is, if you are doing a serious ab routinue of at least 25 minutes/day (with 1 day off a week).\nIf you have a not-so-healthy eating lifestyle, doing sit ups will not help and you will most likely not see any results unless you are doing a complete ab workout (obliques, crunches, roman chair, scissors, leg lifts, etc.) for at least 2 hours/day. \nThe best way is to cut fat (soda, junk food are the easiest) and gradually build into a harder and harder workout where you start at 3 sets of 30 sit ups for a week and add one set and 10 reps per set every week. In ten weeks, you will have a solid workout that will produce very good results. With every workout routine, you should be doing a cardio-vascular exercise (running, biking, brisk walking) to burn calories. And always consult a doctor for the proper workout schedule for your age and body type.

give it time it will go...it's mostley fluid but make sure you don't eat too much. It's not so much the situps and ab workouts you do because that will tone your muscles and get them into shape. It's how much fat that's on the outside so just watch your weight and give it time and your tummy will go down :)

Running.  Crunches will tighten your stomach muscles, but won't get rid of fat.  The only way to get rid of large amounts of fat is to use large muscles, like your thighs and buttocks.  If you can't run, for weather or health reasons, try an elliptical. (Mix between a stairclimber and a treadmill)  They are a lot easier on the knees.

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.
