Ive heard many stories about how hitting the weights aren't actually going to tone you up, I have so much excess skin on my stomach which I really want to get rid of. I hit the treadmill, ab crunches and a wave machine at my gym normally.
Any other suggestions?

    you can't excercise excess skin away. Give it time.

    If you can't excercise the extra skin away, try skin firming lotions and creams. Probably won't get huge results quickly but over time the creams will help with the overall skin elasticity.

    The only thing that gets rid of excess skin is plastic surgery... and even then it's not an option for most.

    I agree with another poster. give it time.

    I agree with the other posters. Give it time and also, weights do help you tone up.
