    Ugh....you will not get a "smaller" waist with any type of non-cardio exercise.

    You just need to lose overall body fat.

    "Ab workouts" are meant to build muscle which adds to the waist. It takes a lot of work to get that "boxy" look though, so I wouldnt worry about it.

    Seriously some of the advice i read here.....:noway:

    However, something that can also train you to unconsciously bring your waist in and hold it is vacuum poses. Blow out all your air and pull your stomach in so that it seems like you're going to shove it against your spine, and hold that for a few seconds. Repeat 9-10 times.
