Walking has got to be the easiest way to trim off the fat. Walk quickly, build up a sweat, get your heartrate up. The link below is a very cool site, the activity calculator is awesome it tells you how many calories are burned for like 200 different activities for any amount of time you enter , activities include housework, walking, jogging , rowing, coal mining, sitting in your ofice, bicycling, dancing, painting, gardening, child care, ironing, firefighting, sitting in class and many many more. Target training your abdominals won't be nearly as effective as a brisk walk everyday, with crunches and leg raises you will certainly tone your abs but you still wont see them because they will still be covered in fat. Walk walk walk its much easier than crunches or leg raises, when you trim the fat off then you can target train to tone them up(but I bet you wont need to). Please trust me on this. You wont need to walk many many miles, I live on an old radar base (pine tree line) and it takes me 16 minutes to do 1 lap around it. I sacrificed some TV time at night to get rest so I can get up earlier in the morning(6am) and go for 1 or 2 laps before breakfast(gonna make a commitment to do 4 laps in less than an hour every day) I have 2 kids whom I spend alot of time with so I have to "sacrifice" my own time at night to "invest" in my own health and longevity.

I'm 14 and I am pretty thin, but what I do is doing 25 to 50 curl ups. You don't have to do that every day but once or twice a week (but if you do it more often it works faster).To help with getting smaller tummies is to follow the food pyramid. Also Dannactive is a good products to use. You can also look on the Internet for a local gym. I think if you use all these tips you'll have your flat tunny you want.

Well the best way to flatten a tummy is to do sit ups at least 15 a day!! And you should eat healthy never starve yourself. Trust Me!! I did and I turned bigger than i was before I starved myself. Now I have a 4 pack which is close to a 6 pack!!

do some crunches while watching t.v., that way it won't feel like you're working so hard. Also a two minute laughing fit(like uncontrollable laughter) counts as a 2 hour ab workout. Ever wondered why it hurts when you laugh really hard for a long time??
