How can I lose my stomach?

[MissAndee]

I know that sit ups will work however I want other ways and ideas possibly eating certain things. How did you get your six pack?

[BeerME]

I usually buy my six packs at the liquor store, but truth be told that's not a great way to lose weight.

Anyway, I would suggest a mixture of aerobic (running, biking, swimming, etc.) and anaerobic exercises (weight lifting, sprints, isometrics, plyometrics, etc.). The focus, as others' have pointed out, should be on cardio as it burns more calories but building muscle will help shape and tone your body and will raise your metabolism considerably so it's important to o both for best results.

On top of that, it's important to watch what you eat. I'd go high protein, moderate carbohydrates (stick to complex carbs like whole grains except for right before workouts), and low calorie. Avoid fad diets like the plague. Here's a good place to get an idea of your ideal dietary guidelines: link

Good luck

I would suggest a good amount of cardio. You already have ab muscles there, they just aren't showing because of some extra fat there. As you run/do some cardio, you will eventually get to a low enough BMI for your abs to start showing through. Also, you have to eat very healthy.

serious cardio(like you're a gym rat/running fiend) you have to shave the fat off your stomach to get to the abs and THEN you have to do the stomach exercises to work them while you maintain your cardio to keep the fat off.

it's hard ass work that's why most people...guys and girls don't have them.

good luck! lol

Women aren't usualloly going to get a six pack in the first place, not without steroids. And you don't need to lose your stomach, just firm it up. Exercise is the only way, healthy eating can help lose the extra fat but you won't look good witout some aches and pains...

[TurbulentDan12]

You can't focus your weight loss in any area so sit ups won't work any better in losing the weight around your stomach than running will. Sit ups will strengthen your abdominal muscles though so a combination of sit ups and any kind of cardio you enjoy would work well.

Cardio and diet are the two main keys to getting abs.

Keep in mind that for women it's not ideal to have a ripped stomach because you should average 5-10% more body fat than a comparable male for biological reasons.

[kheserthorpe]

well,a six pack requires both muscle tone and a really low body fat %. That's done more with diet then exercise, though huge amounts of cardio can help.

by putting it in a place and forgetting where you put it?

Cardio.

I run ~80 miles a week. I swim for an hour 5 days a week. Running Cross Country and Track in college got my very lean.

Swimming made the core strong and the abs showed.

Sit ups will not get you a six pack. You have to follow a strict diet and do intense cardio exercises.
