I do 20 sit ups and 20 side crunches every morning when I wake up. As you all know, excess salt will make you retain water and feel puffy and lethargic. If you do find yourself at the end of the day feeling bloated because you ate an exorbitant amount of sodium then drink an 8 oz glass of water and do some walking back and forth in your bedroom followed by 20 jumping jacks. I have been able to keep my stomach toned through these tips.3

Crunches don't spot reduce fat. They can potentially improve the condition of the abdominal muscles, especially when combined with a workout that incorporates all muscle groups. Reducing bloating can make you feel better or look slightly leaner, but it doesn't tone your stomach.6 -

Your stomach is toned because you maintain an appropriate level of bodyfat. Sit-ups, side crunches, 20 jumping jacks and walking in your bed room is not the cause of it.

Plus, I don't know about the rest of the ladies here but I don't dare to do jumping jacks even before drinking a glass of water... I definitely wouldn't risk it afterwards!

I have bookmarked your post for future reference as it's comprehendable and sensible advice for someone like myself. Also I'm bookmarking it so I'm able to come back to it when I feel like eating cake then I can compare your impressive midsection with my profile pic showcasing my 9 month pregnant belly (which after evicting the tenant 22 weeks ago I am now on a mission to flatten the hell out of - the belly that is and NOT the baby
) I can use you as motivation to stay on track....hope you don't mind?? 6 -
