Can't loose it?
I'm 13, female, and I weigh about 113.
I'm happy with myself, except for the little "pooch" at the end of my tummy. The rest of my stomach is flat, except for that part. I already do 100 crunches a night, a work out from Seventeen Mag., and I don't drink soda, but I can't loose those extra few inches down there. What should I do?

Well, you could have an antierior tilt of your pelvis common in women though men can get it too. If this is the case it wouldn't matter how hard you worked out the pooch will not go away because instead of working your abbs you are working your psoas muscle which in turn is tightening more and in turn is creating more of a tilt and keeping your pooch intact. You need to find a health professional who is trained in these things and they can give you an assessment. There are some simple stretch exercises that can be done to stretch your psoas back out and reduce/correct the tilt. Once that is done your abbs will be the washboard you wish them to be. I've included some websites for you to look over below. Good luck!

I'm 19, male, and attracted to attractive women. You are at a good weight for someone your age. My girlfriend weighs a little bit more than you, (of course she is, she's older) and also has a little "pooch" at the end of her tummy. Don't worry about it, it's normal. I think it's sexy.
If you REALLY want to try and make it smaller though, do inverted sit-ups. That's where you strap 2 hooks to your ankles, hang upside down from a bar, and do a sit up until your body is in an "L" shape, or a "V" shape, if you can get it there.
Hope this helps...
