We've all seen a million questions on "HOW CAN I TONE MY BODY?"
Well, I'm wondering how to just well, make your abs more.. defined and a little bit flatter. I already know about Tone Teen and Seventeen Workouts so please don't suggest that, thanks.

RBfootballTD answered Thursday March 31 2005, 11:55 pm: well, this all depends on how dedicated you are. If you are really dedicated, then do all the differant crunches, i will explain all of those in a second, if your not dedicated, then im sorry but this will not help you a bit (if you need things to push you, put up posters and quotes about working out, then you will think about it more and it will become routine) ok, the following crunches and how to do them:
Regular crunch- go up about half way and stop for a second then come down
1,2 crunch- cross your legs and put them in the air, put your right elbow to your left knee and vice-versa for the other, the way you would count would be "1,2, 1, 1,2, 2, 1,2, 3..."
held 1,2- it is the same thing as the 1,2 crunch, except this crunch is for double the time, everytime your elbow ouches your knee, you hold for a good second, then go to the other and hold for a good second.
Leg-Lifts- lay on your back (make sure you have a clock or a timer) and bring your feet up 6 inches (AT MOST!) off the ground, then time yourself, as soon as it really hurts, drop your feet for a few seconds then start again, this time trying to beat your other time. that should help in toning your abs!

RoadkillSalad answered Thursday March 31 2005, 10:19 pm: You're going to call me crazy, an old fogey, a dork, or something, but do sit-ups... It sounds nuts but it really does work. Another one you can do is take a skateboard (if you have access to one), get on your knees, put your hands on the skateboard, and move forward until your belly is almost touching the ground and come back. It's tough, and it hurts a little bit, but it really helps. [ RoadkillSalad's advice column | Ask RoadkillSalad A Question ]

Well..every night before I go to sleep, I do what I call! "KATIE'S AB LAB!" Hehe...This what cha do girlfrienD!
1. You lay down. Cross your legs in the air, and keep them straight, and lift them about 2 inches off the ground, and then do about 15 sit ups. You'll get higher once you do them more.
2. Rest for about 5 minutes
3. Then, you lay back down, put your knees towards your chest, and lift your body about 1 inch off the floor, and do a bicycle movement with your leg. Do about 5 minute worth of those.
4. Rest
5. Then do just some standard sit ups. But, cross your leg over one, like a boy would sit into a chair...but, move your arm and upper body towards the knee with your elbow. So, lifting and turning. Do both side of your abs and do those about 50 each.
5. Rest
and then I do some reg sit ups to rest on.

If you cant, and I would understand why, because I wouldnt be able to, then a good thing to do would be to watch what you eat, and excersise. You can get tips to working out from instructers at the Y and stuff. Good luck!
