Flat Abs - why don't I have them?

Because I teach group fitness classes, many people ask me this question:

"Why do I still have flabby abs? I have been going to an abs class for over a year."

Guess what? Doing sit-ups isn't going to give you a nice, flat stomach!

If you want a flat stomach you need to do cardio. You need to burn the fat. Sit-ups build muscle. They do not make fat magically disappear.

For those who have asked, or for those who are interested in what it takes, here is an article that explains this and gives suggestions on what you can do to get flat abs. Good luck! I'm still working on it.
