question
I'm 18 and I'm 5'3'' I weigh 132ish. I'm not really overweight or anything. But My tummy is just flabby. For 8 months due to sports I did 200 crunches and ran a mile, also did leg things on the wall. None of that is toning my stomache. I don't know if I'm doin something wrong or if any1 els has had this problem before. Maybe Im just weird. If ya kno anything else I can do to tone the tummy let me kno!

Hey,
I`m suggest going to a gym once or twice a week and using a Bowflex type thing and do cruches on that. It adds more resistance to your abs and helps tone up!
Hope it works!

well you might have muscle...but sometimes if u have a flabbier stomach you have to lose the flab before the muscles show....so maybe cut back sweets, or carbs(best way) and you will loose flab off ur tummy and then ur muscle will show through~!good luck xoxo

Try running this works the tummy real well! Keep with the crunches though.. you may see some difference soon!

If you are really intent on getting rid of your stomach, then you may want to moniter your diet. Stay away from fatty foods.
Also, this helps me, it may not help you, but we have a weight machine, and I do the exersize where there's the bar above your head and you pull it down.... I don't know if that made much sense or not...
Keep doing the crunches.

To begin, the abdominal area is one of the hardest places to tone. It takes quite some time for the body to use fatty tissue there, because it is the most important area for said tissue to be (several life-permitting organs are protected by it, you see)
Even still, getting rid of flab here is undoubtedly something that can be done. The problem for many is that they simply do not understand they functions of the body, and its weight loss process. For instance, inhaling as deeply as possible and exhaling as much as your body allows will speed up your metabolism, causing your body to burn fat more quickly. Or, your workouts my not be long enough; after 30 minutes of working out at the same pace, 50 percent of the fuel used is taken from your body's stored fat. I would try exorcising for 45 minutes to an hour, breathing properly, and drinking around 3/4 to 1 gallon of water daily. These things sound simple, but they help Immensely. I’ve been told by several different specialists that it really doesn’t matter what workout you do, when trying to lose fat from certain areas one must patiently wait for the body to burn it off. Simple things like walking and bike-riding burn a lot of calories, which is what you seem to need, more than toning, from what you’ve said. Toning comes after losing the chub.
