You cannot select...: You cannot selectively lose abdominal fat. It will be lost all over with exercise. However, you can exercise your torso (core muscles) and tone your abdomen up. Cutting carbs with your exercise will bring about the greatest abdominal weight loss!

Cardio Mix: Agreed, you can not target the abdomen specifically for weight loss - if you have adipose tissue that you'd like to lose, then consider an increase in cardio and a balanced diet. However, do not always do the same exercise or you will increase your risks for stress injuries. Mix things up with running, biking, swimming, or circuit training. Ultimately you need to burn more than you consume.
