It helps to burn off a fair amount of fats, if done consistently (3-4 times a week, about 30 or 45 minutes each session). What you can do is go through your abs workout program, then take a break enough to catch back your breath and recover back your breathing. After that, go for cycling class. Cycling classes are usually designed to work your leg muscles (which will indirectly build it as well) as well as to help you lose those fats. If you're a first timer in the cycling class, get help from the instructor to adjust your bike. This is VERY important because cycling with all the wrong adjustments may injure your back. There will be basically 2 types of cycling. One is to make you cycle fast, with comfortable resistance on your bike. This is generally to make your body burn fats. Another is to cycle with tight resistance, making you use your leg muscles to cycle. Also, when it comes to cycling, try to cycle with a push-pull movement. Meaning, push the pedals down, and then when it goes to the back, pull the pedal back up (the pedals will have a strap where you can strap your feet onto). Note that if you are just going to do cardio exercise and nothing else, the first 20 minutes of cardio workout burns NOTHING! Remember to breath when you're in cycling class.

[QUOTE="satria_95, post: 2957020, member: 1506"] civic-r, oh. haha I was wondering how not to use the waist when basically, the abs is one part of the entire waist. hehe daniel, Working out involves more than just the muscles and movements. There is a lot of mention of mind-muscle where your mind must work with your muscles to ensure that right muscle is being worked. Proper form/technique is also very important to avoid possible injuries which may put you out of action for weeks, or even months. On top of that, proper diet, proper daily practises (I'll get to this later) and of course, sufficient rest (at least 8 hours of sleep) will help bring that abs out. Just so you know, everyone actually has 6 pack abs. It's just hidden under those flabs, and it's also how lean and big you work those abs. Here's a quick link for abs exercises.
