Like many people, I'm trying to get abs. Or at least some definition. Now I'm not fat, but I do have a little pooch over my stomach, and I know that you need cardio training mixed with core and strength training to get your fat in front of the abs to go away, and get your ab muscles to actually show.
So I was wondering, if I run 3-5 days a week, and I use a stability ball for core training 5 days a week, will I see results?
I'm also eating better nutritionally. I have smaller portion sizes, and am eating healthy foods like fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins.
I am 16 and weigh 130, so I'm not totally "fat" I just want to look tone and maybe drop a few.
As for exercises, you should try to avoid crunches and focus on more efficient exercises. Studies have shown that exercises such as the Bicycle Maneuver and the Captain's Chair generate far more activity in your abdominal muscles, and as a result, they get you better results in less time.
