4: If there is more abdominal fat, you must adhere to aerobic exercise, running is very effective, you can subtract excess fat so that the muscles show better. Abdominal muscle training is different from other muscles, you have to constantly stimulate it, and so you have to be exhausted every time to achieve the effect. Do about 6 groups.
