Belly pooch

Does anyone know of good ways to fight lower belly fat? I'm not opposed to doing crunches with my cardio, but I always feel like I'm straining my neck and shoulders more than it's doing anything good to my belly. And if crunches are everyone's go-to, should I do them directly after cardio or wait?
Thanks!
Thanks!

I've never heard anything bad about mixing cardio and crunches, but maybe some one here can better assist.
As for the pooch, reverse crunches are the way to go. If you are straining your neck, they you probably need to adjust how you are doing them. You should have your elbows straight out and only see them in your peripheral vision, as well as keep your eyes on the ceiling. You should be lifting with your mid-section, not your neck. Good luck!0
