Answer 1

Diet is essential to having great abs.. Incline Bench Sit-ups which will work the Rectus abd, External Oblique and even target your quadriceps, rectus femoris (it's a section of your leg) and the Tensor fascia lata (another section of your legs). Sit on the bench w/the feet positioned under teh rolls of the bench, hands behind ears. Inhale & lower teh torso less than 20 degrees; raise torso while slightly the back to better focus on the retus abdominis. Exhale at the end of the movement. HIgh-Pully crunches are awesome, they work your external oblique, rectus abd. and teh Pyramidalis (which is the very last muscle closet to your pelvic bone). It's also where many women have the pouch! Go to the cable machine, and facing away from it, kneel holding the handle behind the neck, inhale, exhale and roll the spine as you lower the sternum toward the pubis. Never perform this move with heavy weights, concentrate on feeling the muscles contract, mainly the rectus abd. in order to focus the work on the abd. core. You can also do hanging leg raises, to start its easier to use arm straps that support you and place a box to stand on ifr you've never done them before. I would recommend 4sets of 20. To start, you might do four sets of 5. I can't really tell you without knowing your physical abilities. Tighter arms, Push downs on the cable machine, targets the Triceps Brachii lateral head, long head and medial head. Reverse push-downs same but you have your hands on the bar with a underhand grip. This target the same muscles as the previous excerise but inaddition the Anconeus muscle, extensor carpi radialis longus, extensor carpi ulnaris, extensor digitorum, and the carpi radialis brevis muscle. Laying tricep extensions with a straight bar or dumbell is also recommended or one-arm dumbell tricep extensions. Ask someone at the gym to show you these excersises. My favorite is tricep dips on the bench. Remember, Abs come with consisitency to doing the excerises every week and a GOOD diet, otherwise, you'll never see them no matter how much you excerise them. It's a fustrating aspect of my job, seeing people workout hard then they wonder why they see no results. If you don't eat clean then the workouts are usually pointless, that's like watching a runner smoke after a run.

Answer 2

Not one exercise will tone these areas, you need to do other exercises to help out as well, sit ups help reduce your tummy but also help strengthn your back.put some house bricks on each end of a broom and lift these and when it becomes easy but more bricks on (its cheaper than joining a gym).
Do sit ups holding something heavy and increase the weight.

Answer 3

Use a stability ball to exercise your abs. For under the arms, do dumbell kickbacks.
