The best way to get a flat belly is with cardio. Studies have shown that with diets alone you will lose fat all over your body but hardly none on the stomach. You need exercise to lose belly fat.

The best cardio workout you can get is with interval training. Not only does it burn more calories, promotes fat to be used as energy and boost your metabolism, it will also reduce your workout time. Ever since I’ve started them, I won’t go back to regular cardio.

sit ups will only build muscle underneath the fat.

Try running and crunches/sit ups. Running burns alot of calories and sit ups or crunches build ab muscle.

Hanging leg lifts, but these exercises don’t really trim the fat, they just tone the muscles so you can suck it in a little more.

Cardio! It is a common misconception to do sit ups, and ab workouts. But the only way to eliminate body fat, is by burning more calories than you consume. Workouts such as running, elliptical training, and dancing burn the most calories and therefore burn fat the fastest!

The best way to trim fat is through cardio exercise although there is no way to spot train (meaning there is no magic solution to getting rid of just lower abdominal fat). While exercises such as crunches and sit-ups will help tone the area, your hard work won’t show through unless you mix in cardio to burn the fat ontop of your muscle. Personally, I found that interval cardio training sessions are by far the best for optimal fat loss – and cardio endurance. Instead of going at a steady (boring) pace for 30 minutes you can mix in bursts of intensity followed by short periods of recovery. It’s fun and will burn fat fast!
Be sure to also focus on proper form when you are doing ab exercises – remember you never want to arch your lower back, you always want it on the ground, when doing crunches, sit-ups, etc. No matter how much you do ab work, bad form will prevent you from seeing the results you want.
When you have time, I would also recommend looking online for exercises that work your “core.” They are great for the abs and total body. While I tend to get bored by Yoga, Pilates is a GREAT way to tone your entire body.
Goodluck & Have fun!
