Last month i was at the gym, and i was working on this ab machine, it's like a crucher type thing, i don't know the real name of it. Anyway, I was crunching about 22 lbs, but the lady told me to do less weight with more reps, so i went down to 11 lbs and i do 2 sets of 50.
The lady also said if i would have stuck with the big weights, then the muscle underneath my fat would push out my stomach fat making it harder to lose it.
Is this true?
I'm almost starting to believe it is.
How do i get rid of the stomach fat, I mean I do cardio, should i do less on weights and focus on cardio for a while?

Great abs are made in the kitchen not in the gym. the only way to lose stomach fat and especially if there really isn't much is by making changes to the diet. more protein, less carbs, more veggies, etc. you basically have to trick your body into releasing those fat stores by giving it adequate nutrition daily from low calorie whole food sources.

Two things.
1. The secret to perfect abs is that it's 20% excercise, 80% diet. Excercising is great for you but if you don't eat healthy to complement your hard work in the gym, you won't see results.
2. To get a flat stomach takes a WHILE (months - years) depending on how much fat you have to begin with. You just need to stick with it and you'll be glad you did a year from now =)

Kind of sort of but it's not easy because you need a calorie surplus to gain muscle and a calorie deficit to lose fat sorry good luck though

In a nutshell, high weights for muscle, light weights for toning. Also, you should know that you cannot lose fat (spot reducing) in just one area of your body, you lose fat all over your body at the same time. I guess it would be safe to say that you will lose fat everywhere except where you want at first.
