Why, what's wrong with crunches? Have you tried variations like boat pose and bicycle crunches?
You're not going to get anywhere without hard work!0 -
Exercise is only part of having a flat stomach you need to be bang on with your nutrition and to reduce your body fat and get lean!
There are all sorts of ways to work your core and abdominals, watch some youtube videos to get some inspiration to mix up your work outs.Living in a superhero induced haze :A:A

Sit ups are a waste of time for fat loss. No point building up the abdominal strength if you have a layer of flab over the top.
Eat/drink less junk and do some high intensity exercise.0 -
OOOh If only we could spot train excess flab lol. Trick is work bigger muscle groups so you burn more calories. I see overweight people doing hundreds of sit ups/crunches etc but neglecting the rest. DIet Diet DIet and then diet some more more. Work larger muscle groups Abs are actually very small muscles so killing them in workouts will not actually burn much fat. Work chest back and legs yes squats a lot worse than crunches but far more effective lol.0

I agree with the other posters.

These exercises are done without situps https://www.facebook.com/brightside/videos/1432143333581072/You know what uranium is, right? It's this thing called nuclear weapons. And other things. Like lots of things are done with uranium. Including some bad things.

As others have said I'm afraid it's not good news. Firstly you cannot target fat by specifically exercising that part. Secondly, and more importantly, you could have the biggest best abs in the history of the world and if you have a high body % you will never see them. Flat stomach is solely down to diet (especially in men where the fat is stored in the belly area).
Maybe concentrate on another area that isn't as fat dependent? Go for massive traps or calves0 -
Go for a jog? You dont need to do ab exercises.....0
