Hey guys! Okay so I'm a in shape kinda girl. I do tons of sports, but I have a lower stomach fat. Like my upper stomach is flat, but then I have that little fat. I would like to my my whole stomach flat. What could I do to get that little fat to be flat? lol thank you!!! =D
Crunches only help my top abs, so what are so ab workouts to get my lower abs working? haha (link)
You could do leg raises, but keep your back down tight to the floor while you do them to avoid strain. If you have a bar, you can hang and do leg lifts either with straight legs or with bent knees. You can also do a "planck" hold where you get in pushup position except with your forarms flat on the floor and see how long you can keep your body straight. There are variations on this one with one arm or one leg or in a sideways position that works the oblique muscles. What ever you do, do it to total muscle failure and then let the muscle rest for 24hrs.

You didn't say your height/weight, but try dropping 5 lbs and I bet you will see a difference too!

Well I'm 5'4 and I'm about 145-150. Last Time I looked. But I'm not fat, really. I'm a size 5 in jeans,but I have really big boobs. Like a D. I tore my ACL a couple years ago, and its been hard to get back to my ab stomach that I had a few years ago. I've always weighed a lot, but because I have a lot more muscle then most girls. I look like I'm 120-130ish. Thats what everyone says at least lol. I'm not trying to make it sound like I have no fat, but I do, I'm a girl lol. Thank you, I'm really going to try these!! =D
