While Exercising

Holding in and tightening abdominal muscles while performing all exercises is very important. Doing so will keep your body properly aligned, and your muscles will gradually become stronger and significantly tighter. Also, while lying on the floor doing exercises to strengthen the abdomen and reduce flab, be sure to keep your lower back in contact with the floor. If you raise your lower back, your hips will be doing all the work instead of your abdomen.

Proper Posture

Having proper posture is essential, and proper posture can greatly reduce the appearance of abdominal flab. Be aware of your posture. Pull back your shoulders, stand straight, and hold in your stomach.
