Help with different workout methods.

I've been constantly working out and it seems to be working. My legs have gotten noticeably smaller but they were small to begin with. I'm what you would call an apple shape. Although I'm happy with the results so far , I wonder if there are any exercises that you know of that would help out with the stomach section.

No help sorry but I'm curious on the answers.

Good luck

Planks are a good total body toner. (arms straight out in front of you on the floor feet on the floor, kind of like push up position and hold for 2-3 minutes at a time)

Crunches on an exercise ball, you can do all kinds of things on an exercise ball, kneel on the floor in front of the ball with your forearms resting on the ball and roll out and back in while tightening your abs.

lay on the floor and lift your legs up in the air and write out the ABC's with your feet together.

To work on love handles: stand sideways next to a wall, put your arm out to the side with hand on the wall and drop your hips towards the wall, keeping your feet in place on the floor.

I learned all these in boot camp last summer. They sound easy to do, until you try them, takes time to develop strength.

These are just a few ideas. Good luck!

Try a pilates class they have amazing core workouts
