Calorie Deficit...
That being said, if you want to work your abdominals (which will help tighten the muscles beneath the remaining fat above the belt-line) you can:
1. Sit ups
2. Crunches
3. Crunch machine
4. leg lifts
5. Planks
6. Inverted sit ups
Thank you! I'm going to add some of these to my workouts!0 -
The one where you exercise control over your caloric intake. You can't spot reduce and the 'muffin top' is a fat deposit. If you do exercises that build up muscle in that area, it's just going to be under the fat that is still there, thus not taking care of the problem you want to eliminate.
Fat is stored energy.
Food is potential energy.
You need to consume less energy (food) so that your body uses your stored energy (fat) and then your muffin top will go away.0
