you need to do both. ab exercises and fat loss workouts to get vissible abs and the closer you get (which you are) - the more pateint you'll have to be
how do i know if what I need are fat-loss exercises or ab exercises to tone-up my tummy? I feel the hardness of my abs are only a few layers of fat away, but I am scared that if I do ab exercises, it might just make my tummy bigger. pls help me. 
Gailita
NO
It may help tone up your waist but you need to go here to lose all belly fat
Would you recommend the Abcircle machine, as a way to lose love handles and to give a slimmer waistline?

iF YOU DO INTERVALS (see nowloss.com/i) you can't expect any muscle loss b/c the workouts are short and intense but...
if you are 12% then you're almost at the 8-to-12% range to see your six pack abs
Hey Adrian,
For the past month I've been putting on weight, I currently weigh 72kg and have a body fat percentage of 12%. Because of my weight gain, I've noticed that my stomach is getting bigger, I can feel my abs behind the layer of fat. I'm worried if I start to do cardio to lose my stomach fat, that I'll lose the muscle i have recently gained. Is my stomach just bloated from all the food I have been eating? or should I stop eating before bed? any advice?
Thanks
stacey
Not really.
It's a low body fat % that makes you have a smaller waist so...
You may want to go to NowLoss.com/flat and also see NowLoss.com/1010 to burn some fat
hey adrian,
how about doing "twists" at the waist to make my wide waist smaller. My stomach is flat, its just a little wide. Do twists help to get that hourglass shape?
(make the waist smaller and hips appear wider).
thanks,
stacey

Yes - your workout plan is good enough
Hi Adrian, I am 5'5" and weigh 170. I want to lose the last 20 lbs in the next 6 weeks. I did my first Taebo bootcamp workout today and it felt good. Can I do Taebo 4 times a week and walk the other 2? Do you think this will be sufficient to lose 10-15 lbs in 6 weeks. I have been doing weight watchers to keep my food in check, so I do pretty good with that.
Karen
what is your weight and height - you may have to go here to see why it takes you longer to lose weight
I have hit a plateau and my legs cannot handle twice a day intervals. I was considering adding taebo twice a week to change up my routine. I have been doing intervals and run/walk routines for the last 3 months. Do you think this is a good idea, since my problem areas are my stomach and arms. I really want tone arms and a flat stomach.
Adrian, forgot to add. I also began weight training 20-30 mins, 3-4 times a day. How do I mix this up with taebo. My waist is just not getting slimmer!

You have to do more than body sculpting exercises to flatten abs.
Have you gone here and tried to lose belly fat for flatter abs
hi im 5`9 and i weigh in at a whopping 170 pounds i am working out very hard but my abs do not flatten at all ive tried everything any more tips???
Kendra King

I have been having problems with getting a flat stomache, im not huge, but i would like to get abs and lose my love handles. I have been starting to jog in the morning for about 20 to 30 min. Is there anything else that i could do to get a flat tummy??
quass
what's your weight and height? and no...
Only diet and exercise will burn off the fat - you just need to change something in your plan (probably increasing workout intensity) to burn off more fat - Look at how to break out of a weight loss plateau and...
You can go to NowLoss.com/abs and go here and look at Exercises for Posture (Back & Shoulders) for things to work those areas to make them look slimmer and like i said...
fat loss = mainly diet and exercise
special exercises = firming & toning that will make parts of your body "LOOK" slimmer
i have been exercinsing and dieting for a year and ma lower stomache and mid back fat aint going away so is their like really no type of exercise for them like their is exercise for loosing waist fat by just doing side crunches?
quass,
there is no special exercise to get rid of back rolls and to get rid of any fat - you just need to go on a diet and exercise plan here to burn fat
so i want to get a flat stomach, but the most stibborn parts are my mid back like behingd my waist and my lower stomach dont seem to flatten as well as like i said my mid back i have rolls on my mid back and i dont know what exercises to do?
Thick Waist,
What's your body fat percentage - check it here and are you a male or fmale
I have flat abs with not too much body fat. But I hate that they're a little thick. I want to great that hourglass waist and make it smaller. How do I achieve that?
sharon,
You probably will not lose anymore leg fat so just keep doing what you are doing to lose weight to lose belly fat and even if you do keep getting skinnier legs...
You can always build sexier legs with these exercises here
i been trying to loose weight for the last 4 months, and before i had a good size legs and bum but a very fat middle section and a lot of back fat. now my legs are skinny and my bum is practically gone but my middle section and my back fat are still there... please can you tell me how to reduce this without loosing any more of ma legs and bum..
Tala,
NO - you don't have to use tae-bo to lose weight and get a smaller waist.
There are plenty of other free & not free workouts here to lose weight for smaller waist

The only way to lose any fat is to go on a weight loss plan and these exercises will firm and tone target areas making it "LOOk" slimmer but only a weight loss plan will truly remove the fat
Hi, i have just started a weight loss plan and was looking for some tone up exercises to go with it, your exercises look great but will they work first off or will i have to lose weight with cardio before i start with target zone exercises? i would love to lose the fat on my hips (love handles) and my belly. trouble is i had a c-section 2 years ago and since then i have very little feeling from my belly button down to my scar and its flabbier than the upper part of my belly, will i still be able to shift the flab?? waiting in anticipation!! thanks
nik,

You can go here for a bigger butt NOW to get the hourglass look without getting a smaller waist
So, I have 18-19% body fat, 5'6, 135 lbs, eat right, and active BUT I am still struggling to reduce my waist and get rid of those love handles!?! At one point I was 125 - 130 lbs but I thought I looked too skinny since I have an athletic look but I still have the love handles despite that. I now have a 29 inch waist that is flat with definition BUT I feel like it's wide and I still have those love handles on the side. I want to reduce my waist to 26 to 27 inches but I'm having the hardest time achieving that goal. I think my diet is right, I train like an athlete and do cardio. What am I doing wrong??? All I want is my waist to go in to 26 inches so I can work on increasing my butt size afterwards so I can have that hourglass figure. Thoughts?
Amber,

aracely_sanchez95,
There's no promises but when you lose weight - you lose weight all over your body so...
You may be a person who loses belly fat first and hip fat last or vice versa
a.s.a.p
Is there anyway i can happen to loose all my belly fat, including love handles; without having to loose anthing else! for example my thighs and butt..?
help me,
Only some - this helps you firm up your waist making it look smaller but to really lose your love handles...
You need to lose love handle fat with one of these weight loss plan
ive been trying this and i need to know does this help you lose SOME of your love handles or all of it? and it it only helps some what is something i can do to loose inches off my waist? please help me!
thanks!
rosie n.,
UNASKED questions are the only Stupid questions.
Love handles are lumps of FAT on the side of your stomach covering up your oblique muscles
i know this question sounds stupid, but what are love handles?
desperate,
NO - you're still getting a good workout - soreness usually means you never done that anything like that before
hello, the first time i did this i was sore the next day which is good but once i did it again i wasnt sore anymore does it mean im not losing inches off my waist if the next day im not sore?
Nicole,
You simply need to go on a weight loss plan to get rid of any body fat
I already have a tight and lean body and my obliques seem to be perfect size except I have the fat that goes over them which make them look too big. How do I get rid of the fat without gaining muscle?
triciah19,
You can do tae-bo 3-to-4 times a week or more but as for eating only one meal a day...
You may want to look at why VLCD's may not work for some people
how many times do i have to do tae bo to do results? right now i just drink water each day and only eat one meal and i did the workout that you showed with the squats and the dumbell and the squat to push ups. ....i dnt know the name of it....all this helps but i want to change it up a bit....so basicially i want to know how much times a week do i have to do tae bo to have a good amount of result?
oh and wil tae bo make me have a boy-ish box midsection??? .... because i see some of the girls in his video and they dont have much curves.....so i'm wondering if doing the tae bo will make me have a square shape??? if so is there any way i can do tae bo ....but do a different exercise to attain a hour glass figure?
nina,
Keep doing tae-bo to lose weight but you can't pick & choose were you'll lose weight from and...
You can do butt exercises to maintain your butt
hi i havve a little unwanted fat on my tummy and love handles, if i do tae bo i will lose fat everywhere else i dont want tl l ose fat from anywhere else especially my butt as i have a very flat but and wold like that to be much bigger. the only places i want to lose fat is my fat belly and love handles what shall i do not to lose any off my butt please help thanx
Stefanie,
Since you're weight is normal - you may just need to keep Doing a variety of oblique "love handle" exercises to tighen up that area
Im 5'1 and I weight around 102 pounds. I have next to no figure at all; curves don't exist for me. When I suck in my belly, I can sort of see some curves. I don't really have much of a problem with extra fat on my belly anymore.. its just my love handles. when I run, I can feel them jiggling! its really annoying, and i've been trying so hard to get rid of them by doing exercises targeting them, and by running. But they aren't really going away =/ what else should i do? and is it possible to do an exercise wrong and it will make you build OUT? instead of in and become leaner?
alison,

Jennifer,
The main thing to get rid of love handles is diet & exercise so See the best way to lose weight to get rid of love handle fat and all the other fat on your body but as for exercises...
You can try the other 2 love handle exercises here also
I have no waist-to-hip ratio but have major love handles as well as a fatty lower ab mid section. What is the best exercise? I go to the gym almost everyday doing the elliptical for 30-45 minutes and do about 50 crunches for each left and right side as well as 50 regular.
Julie,
If you keep the weight "light" and the reps high (10-to-15) then you shouldn't have to worry about a boyish midsection
In attaining an hourglass figure, I believe that actually shrinking the waist to enhance the curvy look is essential. The fear that I have with doing these oblique exercises is that the muscle will 'thicken' so to speak, thus creating a box-like or boy-ish figure. Will these exercises thicken the oblique muscle, or encourage the creation of a tiny, curvy waist (which is my aim)?

Go here to target buttocks and thighs
I am about 5'2" and 105 lbs and in my upper 20's. I really don't need to lose any weight, however I seem to have love handles and a little excess weight around by buttocks and thighs. Do you have any suggestions on how to target this area?

It doesn't matter whether you do cardio or ab exercises first -
This TVA exercise will help you get a flatter stomach faster
Hi, im 5'0 and weigh 130 lbs, im apple shaped and small boned, so i have a lot of excess fat in my mid section, most fat is stored there, what exercises can i do to get fast results to a flatter mid section? what exercises will make me lose the fat around there? Also, does doing cardio first then doing some ab workout help more with getting rid of the fat faster? Thanks.
irissa,
Usually, ab exercises will only firm and tighten up the area and the only chance your midsection wll get thicker if you use heavy weights for your ab exercises
i am about 5'9" and 123 lbs. i look like a ruler though. i would like a narrower waistline and i saw some exercises for ab work, and obliques, but won't that thicken the waistline?
