Study published on PubMed re: spot reducing:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21804427
Here's an excerpt from it:...There was no significant effect of abdominal exercises on body weight, body fat percentage, android fat percentage, android fat, abdominal circumference, abdominal skinfold and suprailiac skinfold measurements....Six weeks of abdominal exercise training alone was not sufficient to reduce abdominal subcutaneous fat and other measures of body composition. Nevertheless, abdominal exercise training significantly improved muscular endurance to a greater extent than the CG.
tl;dr - do all the ab exercises in the world...they'll improve your muscular endurance (ability to do a bunch of ab exercises), but your abs will still be hidden until the fat is lost.0
