slimmer tummy

[hobsonbear]

i have been looking at some of the machines and gadgets on the shopping channels that give you a slimmer tummy (abs), do any of them actually work?  i fancy the one where you sit down and swing your legs about (can't remember the name).

You can actually get a thera-band. Depending on how you sit/stand and how you move, it can do wonders. Basically you can work out your entire body with that.

They'll work to an extent just as 'normal' situps/crunches would.

Key to it really is a good diet and good level of all round exercise to burn off any unwanted body fat.

 if ya want a trimmer tum the most effective way of achieving it is regular exercise and a sensible diet. this time last year my own midrif wasnt exactly trim but following a hour's walk a day plus cutting down on junk foods i could rival britney. never mind the gadgets...the novelty wears off. buy a dog..then you'll HAVE to walk every day!! trust me...it pays off!!
