I read somewhere that to get flat abs you need to do more exercises than just crunches/sit ups, and that you're wasting your time doing more than a few reps of them... they only work one set of your abdominal muscles... It was in "Fitness" magazine.. I'll try to look it up for you what they suggested, I have it upstairs..

Good luck! Although I'm not sure if you should weigh yourself daily? I've had a few people advise me to only weigh myself every weeks as weight can fluctuate daily due to many different things.

I believe I read somewhere that crunches alone won't flatten your tummy. It's all about eating clean (diet), excercising (cardio) and weights (as they help you build muscle and burn more calories).

Hi hun I have that article on sit ups/crunches right here:

If you're doing more than three sets of 15, you're wasting your time. "Extra crunches aren't going to cinch your waistline," says Michele Olson, Ph.D., a professor of exercise science at Auburn University in Montgomery, Alabama, and a FITNESS advisory board member. "You're working the rectus abdominus, which is only one of the four muscles in the abdominal wall. But it's the other three deeper muscles [internal obliques, external obliques, tranverse abdominis] that give you a leaner look by helping with your posture."

THE SOLUTION: Take a temporary break from your usual crunches and target your oblique and transverse abdominis...Olson suggests trying these Pilates-based moves as well: (1) the plank (balance on the floor on forearms and toes and hold for 30 seconds), (2) double-leg stretch (lie on your back, knees bent 90 degrees, with feet in air and shines parallel to the floor, shoulders off the floo with arms loosely hugging knees; extend your legs and arms out in a wide V, then return to start), (3) the side plank (lie on the floor on your right side, propped up on your right elbow, feet stacked; lift your hips up, using your left hand on the floor for support. Hold for 5 counts, then lower. Do 10 reps; switch sides and repeat). Do 10 reps of each move, three or four times a week.
