K acttually just give me some workout ideas.
Should I work on my stomach a bit more?
Plyos are fun >:)
I bike 80mins a day (40 to work and 40 back home). As well as do plyos and stretches 30mins a day.
Aesthetically, you should be pretty pleased with where you are at. But strength and flexibility is always something to improve upon. So, I would start focusing on those two and I'm sure the finishing touches on your midsection will come in during the pursuit.
I like challenges personally. Sub 3 minute M-100s. 800m of walking lunges. 3 minute wall sit (proper form). Sub 5 min mile. Stuff like that gives me a hard on. But if you like monotonous life-long routines, do that. I think they are a requirement for unhealthy, insecure people.. but people who are satisfied with their looks, I think should try to have more fun with their workouts. At least I like to. Every now and then I just google fitness challenges, or fitness goals, and see what other people are doing and possibly try them out. So yeah, my suggestion would be to take a break away from routines.. and just try to achieve some fitness challenges. E.g. 6x20 yard shuttle runs in sub 55 secs is one of my current goals.. I'm at 56 secs >:]
Please note that I'm not advocating working out less! but rather encouraging you to take on fitness challenges (which should be as rigorous or more so than any other workout) every so often. Wasn't sure if I conveyed that well and didn't want for it to be confused.

Toned is basically an uneducated way of describing a combination of well developed muscles and low body fat. The best way to train the stomach muscles is not to target them but to do compound exercises that work the whole body. The core is worked best when it's used as a stabilizer for other movements. Barbell exercises hit the core really hard, such as squats, deadlifts, and cleans. bodyfat is reduced by being in a calorie deficit and making sure your macronutrient profile is set up to preserve the muscle. cardio will accelerate this process.
I think you are just fine the way you are and possibly fishing for compliments like others have said, but if you're serious you know you should just do workouts targeting your stomach/abdomen whatever middle muscles lol.
YouTube has some good instructional videos if you really want to see them and get ideas you could even do at home.

If anything you might be working out too much. I think adding a bit more fat to your thighs and hips would look better because it seems like you have a low waist to hip ratio. Find a calculator online and you'll see what I mean. Your boobs look good so it would help to create an hourglass shape.

i feel like you just want compliments,cuz frankly, I don't see why anyone with a body like that would even question it. you got a great body, don't freak out about it lol
-
can you be anymore of an attention whore?
youre perfect all around, now get over yourself. -
Don't be mean? Girl, I am so jealous right now I could cry. You need NO work at all. But hey, if you really want to get more toned, try crunches or lay on your back, legs together and bring them up to verticle position.
-
It never hurts to work on tummies..although males are more accepting of a little tummy pudge than most females realize...however maybe not at your age? I would lay flat and do leg lifts...(:(:(:
-
Why would anybody be mean, well besides the fact that you're asking for fishing for compliments. It's not like they're going to call you obese and you're going to believe them.

I am actually glad I am not the only one on here thinking this girl is fishing for compliments.
-
Yeah, you're already fine. I don't really like girls with abs. It makes me feel emasculated.
-
Nice stomach. I'd kill to have a flat stomach.
Erm' cardio and crunches. -
Well, no such thing as spot reduction, and you seem to put on fat in your mid section...so I would say diet and exercise more
