Abs

I would suggest focusing on losing body fat and then focusing on building abs. If you have fat on your stomach, doing ab exercises isn't going to make your stomach smaller, it just makes your abs bigger. But I would recommend getting a yoga ball and a medicine ball or using them at the gym. I do crunches with the medicine ball:
1) sit on the floor at a 45 degree angle, bend your knees, and place feet on the ground (or raise your feet off the ground for a harder workout)
2) hold the ball in between your 2 hands, starting at your stomach
3) in a swift motion, bring the ball to the left, touch it to the ground besides your hips/butt
4) repeat step 3, moving to the right-doing the same thing-, and back to the left, etc.
With a yoga ball, sit once again at that 45 degree angle, place the ball between your ankles and lift your legs straight out, hold for 3 seconds, rest and lower, and repeat
Just some ab exercises I've been doing and can definitely feel the burn
