If I start doing sit ups will that just make my stomach worse? If I run, should I do sit ups, or should I just do cardio? I'm asking, because I've heard that if you have some flab in your stomach doing sit ups won't help but make it more difficult to tone your stomach. So should I just do cardio, do cardio & sit ups, or will just doing sit ups be efficient in targetting my tummy?

Sit up/crunches are never bad but you just won't see the results when there is flab over it. Plus, its always a good idea to have a strong core so it's not like doing them while having a little flab is a bad thing. And I'm right there with ya sister! My stomach is the hardest thing to get back into shape!

I am up to 30 sets of 20 a day. I have lost noticeable weight without getting off my couch and my abs are really getting toned. I SWEAR by these.
